I think I'm gonna love it ! May this album be as upbeat and catchy as this song !

Sincerly I think it's too low. I can't say really if it's new sound or classic ayu's sound. However, the last part sound really good. I can't wait to have other preview^^
thanks

Have you read AHS Drama Rule # 21938?

I like Microphone. It sounds dark, gothic, and different for Ayu. Sorta Jrockish in some parts. The low quality clip, and the low volume of the song compared to the high volume of everything else makes it hard to make a good judgement. I like it so far. The vocals aren't anything new, more yell-singing. Still it's a song that I think I'll enjoy.

OMG
that sounds awesome!!!!!
it really does sound like they sampled kiss o' kill or something. xDD
idc, i really like it.

I love the organs and her "LA. LA. LA." (those aren't the lyrics but I'm emphasizing the in between each syllable) at the end.

Otherwise, there's too much talking going on for me to really listen to or even try to appreciate the song. It seems like an interesting song, and I can't wait for the full version :)

Is this Ayu footage from the 2009 CM? I don't like that =/ Heh.

AYU-ROCK IS BACK!

I agree. First I was impressed, but then I don't want to expect to much. I will see.
Thanks anyway!

:roflmao

Anyway, the song sounds like it's gonna be freaking epic! Can't wait for the full song. <3

Every time I replay this clip... (going on 35 times now) I keep expecting to hear Sparkle because it's an old CM LOL.

:O i like it, i like it, i like it! the ending sound really cool! i can just imagine that in concert already, oh im so exited! :D

Now why was that commercial even "recycled" from last year? Maybe in synchronous because that car wasn't redesigned for this year, just updated features?

interesting... the song sounds different and the organs are to die for. her singing though... choppy and staccato-ish as usual... so..

Nice!

Like almost everybody here says, it does have that kiss o kill feel to it.

Wow, the title "Microphone" sounds interesting.
And yep, I agree it sounds like "kiss o' kill"

I guess lyrics is what we often hear from Ayu ^^
It sounds to me like this:
> ... nowa itsumo A.Na.Ta. dakara.
means Because who does bla bla bla ... is always Y.O.U.

What Ayu says in the CM is like this: (no difference from the previous one? I don't know.)

> It's oneself who makes its life boredom.
> It's also oneself who sparks its life.
> :
> Spark.

Whoa! totally did NOT expect this at all. Honda Spark songs are so awesome!! they have an edge and Microphone sounds EPIC again..like Sparkle. But I think she used electrorock this time..and yes it's such a throwback to kiss o' kill omg...

If she goes classic as in orchestra + future as in electro....then I think I'll be hearing a new genre? hehehhe...this is really exciting

OMG!!!!!!!!

I'M GONNA LOVE THIS SONG :p I can tell already :D

Great, this gets promo for the album started :D I hope we get an official announcement next week :D

hmmm. The arrangement really sounds cool and interesting! It does sound like Kiss O' Kill, but I'd be all for a part 2 of that song. :) It's hard to get a feel for her vocals because they sound low; could be the quality or that they are buried in the mix; hopefully its just the quality because otherwise they sound pretty weak imo.

it doesn't sounds so new... it does sounds like a kiss or kill recycle song . i was expecting more for the new song with new sounds .

at least the song is better than her last ballad

It definitely sounds like a mix b/w the low quality, the voice speaking over her and the fact that the sound of the song is low in general. Besides, the song could end up sounding completely different and polished on the album. Isn't that what happened to Sparkle? (And definitely 1 LOVE if I remember correctly.)

Well she did say this was going back to her older works? :shrug
