PROGRESS!!! OMG!!! AWESOME!!!

I went to her concert last night. Needless to say, it was incredible. The stands outside the arena played different parts of Progress so I think all in all I heard the whole song now, and it's amazing. The bridge is incredible.

Also she obviously performed it, but it was a different arrangement. She started slow, like a ballad, and after the first chorus the beat kicked in. It's an incredible song.

But the studio version isn't going to feature that ballad-like beginning is it?

Wow, progress sound so NICE... can't wait to hear the full ver.

I like the progress snippet. Hopefully I'll like it even more when I hear it in full :)

truehappiness 24th July 2011 05:59 AM

The one that they play in Akihabara starts out slow according to my friend, so perhaps it does have that ballad beginning?

CHE.R.RY 24th July 2011 06:26 AM

Wow the Why... PV sounds like it'll be really awesome! I'm so curious what the songs are gonna sound like! I love the previews of progress soo much! I'm really psyched for this mini :yes.

SURREAL__RAINBOW 24th July 2011 06:54 AM

wait... is the album called FIVE or 『FIVE』???

:thud

ayumisrael 24th July 2011 06:55 AM

FIVE. These signs are the Japanese "". ^^

progress sounds badass!!! Wow =DD

SURREAL__RAINBOW 24th July 2011 06:57 AM

yeah true, but why they tag this thread with 『FIVE』 then?? It confuses me lol

ayumisrael 24th July 2011 07:03 AM

For prettier interior I suppose. xD I love these "" haha.

truehappiness 24th July 2011 07:16 AM

Also because FIVE is not allowed as a tag since it's too generic of a term.

Keiichi_JPU 24th July 2011 08:23 AM

Progress does have a slow instrumental intro, but at the concert she performed the entire first verse + chorus as a slow ballad, and that doesn't happen in the studio version, which is entirely up-beat (or mid-tempo, whatever you'd like to call it).

!Lawi! 24th July 2011 08:29 AM

I think it could have a slow beginning even in the studio version,that would explain why we got the second verse & chorus from the trailer, instead of the first one !

Loving the sound of a Alice in Wonderland PV. I'm over her having an artsy type / symbolic most of the time now that having a rather mundane beach video doesn't bother me. All I care about if it's pretty or not.

Description of pictures, no actual pictures.
Spoiler:

There's a bunch of children in the beloved video. It appears that Ayu is like their... guardian? savior? haha. But she's wearing a beige/white dress that's very natural looking as well as a ring of flowers on her head. Not much other than Ayu interacting with the children and shots of the staff. However there are some colorful balloon like things in one shot...

For Why... it looks to be inspired by Alice in Wonderland. It starts off with Ayu sleeping wearing a tank top and short-shorts, and very minimal makeup (it says suppin, which means no makeup, but I think they just made the makeup look as if she wasn't wearing anything...haha). Then the scene with Ayu in the butterfly dress is taken in a room where Ayu looks giant (a la Alice), but the walls and tables are covered in flowers.

There's also a lot of green screen, and a shot of Ayu which looks as if it could be her 'falling' into her dream? The angle of her body against the green screen and such, plus she's wearing the same outfit she was wearing in the sleeping scene. Hard to explain, you'll see it better when someone scans them haha.

Juno is wearing a black and white checkered outfit with top hat.

woww Why... PV seems so interesting!
and it kinda reminds me of walking proud PV..
and beloved PV...reminds me of Sweet season..coz got children in there lolss haha...
i'm so looking forward to FIVE album definitely..
so can't wait!!

progress is really a COOL song..BRILLIANTE!! LOLSS..
awesomeness..totally love the bridge part.. and also the solo electric guitar part!

Masamune 24th July 2011 10:08 AM

This can be a great PV!Canīt wait to see the whole!!!

isthisLOL? 24th July 2011 10:18 AM

progress sounds INCREDIBLE! I just hope the opening part from the CM is in there, else I'll have to manually cut it into the CD-rip later xD

Corvina 24th July 2011 10:24 AM

I don't feel progress yet. The snippet from truhappiness friend is nice, but it doesn't click with me. And it does sound so much like another Ayu song. I have to remember which one!
Curious for a studio version now to see if my opinion will change.

asmAyumi1992 24th July 2011 10:39 AM

I love Progress! I'm sure it'll be in my most favorite list :yes

Oh, Progress reminds me of Liar.
