wha-t? preview have had everything the same as the full version.
it was only ayu singing, ayu in mud, ayu with dog. that's all. no action.

i think crossroad will grown on me, it's not that bad as i thought.
and more i look at the pv, the more creepy long haired ayu it seems >.> she LOOKS akward.

no it didn't. this was the short version PV and it didn't show the oil scenes. i cannot think of her getting all dirty and covered in oil as boring but i guess some people need more than that to be entertained. those scenes were so damn amazing/epic to me omg.

god i hate avex teasing us with these short versions :( i wonder if we'll have to wait until after the single comes out to get the full PV of crossroad.

Very thrilling and heat stirring pv from ayu

Cherry Dynamite 11th September 2010 01:41 AM

Sooo ayu watching herself while holding a match?
Hopefully L PVs will be much better <3
I adore the song though~

only one thing, the wig, if it had more volume or something her had would have that weird look for me. now with the flat wig her had looks weird.

Wiggish hair...that's just the only problem for me as far as Ayu's appearance goes. Her outfits were very cute as usual. I think the fact that she was watching herself sing on TV was a look back at her personal crossroad, but I don't want to get into too much analysis before the full PV comes out. The song is great! :yes

I see so much symbolism with her lyrics...or at least from a translation I read at Ayu's Story. :yes

Bigtop 11th September 2010 01:52 AM

Quite a bit odd there, but only two minutes?! That's not enough...

Tom Punks 11th September 2010 01:52 AM

My only problem with the PV is that wig. Omg, it's sosososososo bad. It just emphasizes the fact that her face is an exact square. :|

I love the shots of her on the TV, I wish they'd focus more on that than badwigayu. ;_;

AyuGAME 11th September 2010 03:08 AM

hmm...i need full version to interpret it...
but i think there is corelation between the PV and the story of "little match girl"
where she can find happiness when looking on the matches...

Plot summary

On a cold New Year’s Eve, a poor girl tries to sell matches in the street. She is freezing badly, but she is afraid to go home because her father will beat her for not selling any matches. She takes shelter in a nook and lights the matches to warm herself. In their glow, she sees several lovely visions including a Christmas tree and a holiday feast. The girl looks skyward, sees a shooting star, and remembers her deceased grandmother saying that such a falling star means someone died and is going into Heaven. As she lights her next match, she sees a vision of her grandmother, the only person to have treated her with love and kindness. She strikes one match after another to keep the vision of her grandmother nearby for as long as she can. The child dies and her grandmother carries her soul to Heaven. The next morning, passers-by find the dead child in the nook..
i think maybe the PV has corelation to her grandmother, she really love her grandmother, right?

i love her look on the tv, so cool!!!

ohsixthirty 11th September 2010 03:20 AM

What a sad story! But I do see the similarities.

Jwiz 11th September 2010 03:29 AM

I love the Ayu in the TV. This should be her new look :love

AyUmIXx 11th September 2010 03:35 AM

her lips look big due to the Rimmel lipgloss she's endorsing hahaha XD

anyway, about little match girl..that could be it..
there's a similarity!
thanks AyuGAME for poiting that out!
I'm so curious about the rest...

I wonder why wig-hair Ayu seeing Ayu on TV..with such bittersweet smile~

kotora 11th September 2010 03:37 AM

Is she making wishes for each matches?

No comment at all of the plot. Beside, one thing - Her lips is so big and fake.

Kogepan_19 11th September 2010 03:51 AM

I think Ayu looks so like, mature and hot in this video. I don't think she's used this style for a while and I personally think it's so sexy haha.

The song itself is just...awesome.

kagami 11th September 2010 03:59 AM

I really like the atmosphere. And I kind of wonder if the Ayu holding the match isn't really supposed to look real? For some reason I get the feeling she's a doll or a robot haha.

alternarist 11th September 2010 04:16 AM

i find it really funny to see ayu playing with matches, and trying to light a match with another match. but i shall wait for the full PV. but the song sounded really good even though i find the tune at the beginning somewhat weird. =x

SheFliesHigher 11th September 2010 04:27 AM

I'm intrigued by the story being told in the video, but the song really doesn't grab me at all. Yet.

sugarbasil 11th September 2010 06:41 AM

I was bored beyond all belief. That's all I'll say on the matter. : /

waterballoon 11th September 2010 07:04 AM

I like the setting, mood & atmosphere of the PV, it's dark and interesting.

Her wig, eww disgusting. Her lips, yuck eww gross. I LOVE her style in the TV screen though!

& all those fruits/flowers? Whatever I think they're just her favorite flowers & fruits LOL kidding, I hope they mean something~

and I hope she burns herself at the end that will be so damn cool

Ayu_desu 11th September 2010 07:26 AM

First of all, I have a lot to say about the song:

I must say, this is the first song that I enjoyed listening to since her Secret album, which was like 4 years ago. That makes me certain that I actually do enjoy her older music style than her newer ones, since this song was composed by one of Ayu's old composer.

Ayu imo have been in a downward spiral in terms of music quality, but this song has given me hope that she may reuse her old composers and rediscover her old but excellent music style, which was what made me a fan back then.


As for the PV, I haven't really liked any of her recent PVs nor her look... this probably won't be any different, but I'll just wait for the full PV for my final judgment.

Aditmi Krisnasaki ~II~ 11th September 2010 07:48 AM

the only thing I love from this PV is her hair... :yes

I'm happy she used her "Secret" era hair yet once more~~ :D
