^ oh no....
hopefully ayu can still hold her record~~ :cry oh please, there are only 3 singles left to make her the "only female artist with most consecutive number-one singles"... T.T |
I'm pretty sure the record is going to be broken. I don't have any factual or statistical information to back this up just my gut instinct and lack of concern for any of her competition (no disrespect to the artists intended, of course). Something tells me this is going to be a big year for Ayu and we, the fans as well. ^^

There is more keyboard here than guitar. You can very clearly hear the synth in the chorus, Its not a rock ballad by any standards. A rock ballad to me - you would be able to clearly hear riffs throughout and it would have to be a dominant instrument. The keyboard is the dominant sound in the chorus. This is judging from the CM version. The guitar is in the background (hardly any Ayu songs don't have any guitar) but it only adds to the rhythm and melody. |

It'd only be a problem if it were released in the same week, but it's not : P |
I'm surprised no one has mentioned THE Himuro Kyosuke-san who's going to release his new solo single Bang The Beat on 14th July too
is he a threat to ayumi ? cos well he's a legend in the jrock music industry & I honestly if this might be one as the last solo single he released was 2006's Sweet Revolution / In The Nude - Even not in the mood - I kinda doubt it though O_O''' & that goes for BREAKERZ too who I know will get whacked by ayumi on that day but it's ok they don't have any #1 streak going on x) |
^ He is very famous, but I don't know how well he does sales wise. He's probably not going to be a threat.

July certainly is a packed month for releases. It's like most of the year has been boring then suddenly everything releases at the same time. |
^ ARASHI...????? :thud
I'm DEAD... T.T |

Im just referring to the sound in the chorus and the rawness of the live rip. on another note, i think her sales will turn out fine. |
If MOON is anything, I'd classify it as pure pop. The song it comes closest to in terms of sound and intrumentation is fated. So if you think fated is rock, then MOON will be rockish to you too.
|
fated was a summer rock ballad.
I think that MOON is kind of a rock ballad as well. It has hard electric guitars and drums in it. No one said it's metal or hard rock. =P |
^ I guess.
Though I still classify fated as pop as well. Rockish pop, true, but still a popular pop tune at its core. :) |
Yeah of course, they still are under the pop umbrella but they are pop/rock or pop tracks with rock inside of them, that's the point. :D
Of course not every song with electri guitars on earth is rock or anything, but with the level of hard guitars that are in MOON and fated for example it could be classified as pop/rock, soft rock, rock ballads. Usually rock ballads have soft guitars unless if they are hard and sad (which could be rock ballads like is this LOVE? or decision). |
^ fated's core melody is mostly guitar driven so I consider it a soft rock ballad~

So she's releasing on the same day as ARASHI? Now the streak isnt imperative to me but it seems ridiculous to lose it when she's so close. 4 versions will not save her. Her only hope is AKB48-like fans to buy 800 copies of her single each, otherwise; reschedule.
|
^No arashi's single is released a week before.

blossom sounds pop rock and not ROCK either. Guitars are often use to support the song, to give depth and such but guitars doesn't equal rock at all. stop to think that because there are electric guitars it's a rock song, this is false to death ! and kinda ignorant ! |

This discussion just goes to show how meaningless genre-labels are since EVERYBODY has their own interpretation of them.
