Wow, the song is most definitely WAYYYY better than I even expected! Such a beautiful power ballad. The best part? Ayu is showing her amazing vocals! WOW! Like "B&D" she's showing real vocals. I don't care about what anybody has to say, i LOVE this song. High hopes for the single, HIGH HOPES! :D

They don't have bad taste, they have their OWN taste. :rolleyes

Well, thing is, if you say that a mass of people are the ones with bad taste, and you and a few others are the only ones saying such things, wouldn't you be the ones with bad taste? :p lol

Ok, after hearing PRIDE for the 5th time, I think it isn't that bad a song! It's in fact very late 90s in terms of composition. It gets a B+ from me in fact, but maybe after I see the PV, I might give it an even better grade!

I :heart: Pride very much. It's such an emotional song. Remind me of Disney and the victorian era for some reason...

I'm gonna download the Pride PV. I so can't wait. <3

I don't know why, but even after listening to B&D and Pride for numerous of times, I still don't feel anything strong from it like I got from Moments, CAROLS, alterna, STEP you and is this LOVE?. Maybe it's just me. Although this song, is okay I'd say. The beginning sounds real nice but as the song progresses, kinda takes away your interest from listening to it again. And it's not even because of her vocals. Her voice sounds real strong and emotional in this song, but I don't know why... I don't really like it. Perhaps listening to it a couple more times will help. =( Let's hope there are better songs in the upcoming album, or else, Ayu will definitely disappoint me on this single and the upcoming album.

It's a bit boring and a typical song in terms of pattern etc. It's just like most of the tracks on her My Story album lol. I don't like the main chorus with the bg vocals. I like the parts when she's singing by herself, it remindes me a bit of Mika Nakashima's "Fake". It's a decent song, it's better than some of her stuff, but I'd say it's her worst song so far this year. But Bold&Delicious is my fave song of her's this year haha.

i like this better than B&D, this song isnt excelent though, this song is a bit like Liar and Hope or Pain and i find those the worst MY SOTRY songs :(

i love it. the chorus is the best part to me. the background singers make it sound cool. this song makes me think of Ayu with an umbrella singing in the rain at the period of the day right before nighttime...when the sky is the color of this smiley -->:(

this song is great ..
very dark , yet emotional !! i like it !
as if it came w/ the heaven single .. it'd be awesome

I didnt like the preview but when i heard the full version..I was suprised on how good it really sounded especially the la la la la part..I can't stop singing along ever since..even though the full version is a crappy quality..*can't wait for the CD rip!!!* I never thought i would say this but I LOVE PRIDE MORE THAN Bold & Delicious...Definitely one of Ayu's best ballads..in my opinion..^_^

anyway... a 3rd ranking ballad this year... :D cant beat heaven and will :P ^^
