Thanks a ton, freedreamer!

Lyrics of the preview that I hear:
From 2ch:
優しい歌を君にあげるよ
永遠を永遠と信じられるように
だからどうか君は笑っていて
幸せだよと笑って
もう一度


SUPER rough translation:
I give you a gentle/tender song
Forever and ever, to believe in it
Because I always want you to smile
I want to see you smile
Once again

Translation from Misa-chan:
I'll give you a tender song
So that you can believe in forever, forever
So please, smile for me
And tell me you're happy
One more time

yasashii uta o kimi ni ageru yo
eien o eien shinji rareru you ni
dakara douka kimi wa waratte i te
shiawase da yo to kikasete
mou ichido~

The free single chorus preview from tethevo and freedreamer.

I like the title! I can't wait to hear it!

Also before anyone mentions it because I know they will.. KODA KUMI DID NOT INVENT THE WORD "MOON" kthx.

MOON. Lol reminds me of Kuu's single back in 2008, but I can see it being a mid-tempo BALLAD? Can't wait to hear it!

Oh, how great!
The good news don't end! ^.^

I LOVE the title.
Simple, but beautiful and I LOVE the moon! :heart

Wow u're fast HAHHA...np for the info :)
MOON sounds pretty

What ?? I mean... Already a new song ?

I'm so excited! Hope it will be part of a new summer single

Wow~~ such a nice title!! Thank you so much.

Wow so soon. Thats just crazy! It will probably be added into the tour later on I guess.

Preview for those who don't see the thread in the downloads forum.

wahhhhh..someone please download it and share it here

WOW IT SOUNDS GD!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! totally fits with Last Links omg

This was mentioned a while ago though. That a medium ballad was available for (I think; correct me if I'm wrong someone) people who ordered first press editions, live in Japan and have a Japanese phone. Something about the album having a code that allows them to access it.

I wish this will either be released as an actual single, or that at least a very good quality rip will be available in the future.

MOON sounds like a nice title; I can see it being a pretty medium ballad.

She could have done a triple A-Side with that song ;)

Sunset > MOON > Sunrise

^LOOL...then MOON would have owned

Thanks!!!!

It sounds like it will be really beautiful <3

THANK YOU!

Oh, the quality is quite good too and the song sounds so NICE! :heart

I cant help but comment again...gosh MOON sounds superb to me!
It could totally fit after Last Links hahaha..but people will commment on the number of rock ballasd the album has lol

(damn it..Ayu is giving me back what F.I.R has lost)

It sounds really really nice!! Melody sort of reminds me of Last Links (which I LOVE) Now I really hope it'll be available in really high quality in the future.

This is different from the MOON she sang pre-avex rightz? lol

So the free chaku-uta is MOON in full, or is it a preview of it (like the file just posted)? I'm lost XD

Oh yes that's true, I had totally forgotten !
I really hope it will be part of a summer single, along with a jazz-like song !

Yes, that MOON was a cover, haha.

It was a free version of the chorus.

I love it o__o; This was such a sudden and wonderful surprise for me, I had no idea there was a new song in production at all... I still feel like I'm in shock, this came out of nowhere for me, but I'm really really happy, it sounds awesome XD

o.O not a full song?its only the chorus?

Hopefully someone can translate the chorus. hahaha
o man..I LOVE TODAY!
It felt to me as if MOON came with the album lol
(hope this will be on her new single)

Thanks for answering ^^
This is LQ but it sounds quite great! I can't wait to hear it in full!

I love the preview so much! I can't wait for it. I hope it's released in June or something, I don't want to wait any longer than that lol. I'm greedy and impatient, ik.

can thisplease replace Last Links thanks '-__-

Ironcally, I was listening to Kumi when I read this :roflmao

But yeah it is a nice name. Let's hope it comes with the next single! :D

Preview isn't bad. Sounds like a keyboard-based ballad, I hear synthesizer in the background.

Looking forward to hearing this in full. LOL @ Sunset, Sunset and MOON.

Damn. a second song called MOON.. I liked the pre-avex song that Ayu sang which was also called 'moon'. But... This is kind-of a nice song, like RED LINE, only a bit better.. Wonder how this will be released; it's so weird we get this song. The album is not even out yet :P

I think we'll get a single around July/August again, this'll have to be on it. Ayu won't let it rot being exposed to TA members only. And I wonder if this is the final studio version, or just a demo?

Probably a demo. The release date hasn't even been decided yet.

I'd like something like a PLANETS themed album for next year~

SUN/(MOON)/EARTH/MERCURY/VENUS, etc, haha.

(Celestial bodies?)

^ why do you think this is a demo, and why do you jump to conclusions this will be a single? I mean, it could happen, but there's no way we can be sure.

As far as I know, this is a full, 100% finished song, available as a first press bonus track in Japan.

I do agree it will eventually be included on a single / album / best, but it'll probably be the same song available on chaku-uta now. She wouldn't officially release a demo, right.

Oh and about the song: it sounds brilliant!! I want it on CD right now! :luv2

She's released "demos" before as CM versions. This is a bit like that, I think, especially since they released only one chorus for free along with Rock'n'Roll Circus. (See Sparkle's CM mix. - http://www.mediafire.com/?yzxodmzqkdz)

Basically, the song didn't have a title about a month or two ago, and now it does. I think that the song isn't 100% finished, but she wanted to give TeamAyu a gift, haha.

Woahh thx for sharing..
another acoustic ballad! LOVE ITTT..
since it will be released as ringtone, i'm wondering will us get the HQ 320 kbps version later?

What truehappiness said. This is a gift for TA fans, getting to hear this song early on before a single release. I don't think this is just a "bonus" track that will never see the light of day. I mean, its being released on a mobile phone service. If this was a downloadable CD extra, I'd probably think otherwise.

remind me of Tsuki ni shimizu XD

cant wait for this ^^

oooh they only released one chorus? That changes things, yeah. I thought they released the whole song.

Then I agree with you :)

OMG I hope this will be on the next single or something
MOON, simple but nice ;)

lol at you posting this and waterballoon's post right after XD

I like this title a lot, actually -- and mid tempo ballad?! Awesome, awesome.

lol Inori, I swore she edited her post. But my point wasn't to imply that Kuu invented the word "MOON". It just reminded me of it, that's all.

So exiting >< the preview is really short and it make me exiting more and more.
Can't wait for the full version!!

I like the sound of this, the melody makes it sound like something i could listen to on repeat:D.
I wonder how the title relates to the lyrics^^.

I suppose it's something like...

"I am like the moon, and I am always watching over you, just like this song will always remain in your heart if you believe in it..."

And so on, haha.

it's a bit boring for me.

the instrument choices are a bit typical i guess haha

but who knows how the whole thing will turn out :D

thanks~

O lol...at least the song sounds really good. haha
sounds like it'll belong to the line of RED LINE, MY ALL lyrics somehow
but song wise...Last Links is as close as it gets

I wonder if the date that the download ends is around the time that the single/whatever will be out?

LOL it sounds so creepy when put like that. XD

Hmm, I'm not in love with the chorus but I really need to hear it in HQ to say for sure. Maybe the arrangement will turn out surprising, now it seems pretty boring. ^^

it's when the download ends :)

txjxf, I know that... haha.

Heehee!

ITS SO GOOD!!! SUMMER BALLAD!!! YAY!!!
looks like will be another hit from ayu!!!

This is pretty cute, considering the fan-made compilation of her old covers with the same title :)

This is super cute!

haha oops!

i thought it said i wonder if its when the download ends or when it comes out


haha my bad :P

I hope to listen to the full song asap~

Cool, i like the title and what i heard was awsome!!

Thanks for sharing! I hope this is part of a "tick-tock" progress - this is a "tick", and the "tock" is putting it into a future physical single...

so, this will be the new next upcoming single?

I like the sound of the song!!
Why couldn't she have put it on the album!! X_X

I thought when i read this: ooo no not again a ballad.
But when i listen to the preview i really like it.
It is more a upbeat ballad, if oyu now what i mean.

MOON? what a unoriginal title >,<
I don't know but... it reminds me of fairyland, lol.
I'm curious is it a rock song, we can't judge it by this preview. Sounds nice, can't wait for the next possible leaks.

So all the rumors about a song called "MOON" were right?

Hahaha~

Ahh, I want to hear thiiis! >.<
Is it up on YouTube already? I don't want to be annoying but I can't download it on the computer I am using at the moment but I would love to hear it though.

I hate this "uh, xy did it before" but I really think this is funny here, since Kumi's single "MOON" was also written in capital letters.
I still love it! A "MOON" song from ayu.. lala..

I don't get why everyone's first thought is Kumi's MOON. Gackt also had an album with same title in capitol letters as well before that. It's just a common word. Still, i think the preview of the song sounds great and i cant wait for the single to come out.

^in fact...there is TONS of japan song that using this title...

^wouldn't surprise me. might even be some American or British songs with this title we may not be familiar with. Just like i can think of probably 6 artists off the top of my head that have a song called "because of you". Titles of songs just don't bother me I guess.

MOON somehow reminds me of Who... (of the lyrics) and the movie for Voyage.

thanks...the title reminded me of this http://www.dailymotion.com/video/x4d...umi-moon_music

i think that this song is incluyed in the next single ^^

if only this song replaced sunset on the album...why couldn't ayu put this song on the album? :( The preview sound great!

oh my god.. never knew this~~

The title sounds so pretty!!

whoa.. new single already?!
I hope she sings it during R'nRC Tour!!

First thing to pop into my mind was her cover performances from the early 90s. and her movie "tsuki ni shizumu" cause she was all obsesssed about the moon in that.

thanks =)

My heart skipped a beat when I saw this. Still in the throes of Rock'n'Roll Circus love, and now this! :D
I'm in class so can't listen, but I like the title a lot.

sounds amazing, i cant wait to here more lolz

it's not a new single right?
but only can be accessed through mobile phone~

i'm really really liking the song!
can't wait to hear it full

i love the title lots. =) hoping for a HQ full song

thanks for the info!!! will listen once I get my album copy xD

question: this is supposed to be like a preview for her next single?

I love the title, the song sounds very good can't wait for an hq version><

Wow, the album is not out yet. But there's a new song! She's so fast!

wow... it's so funny because sometimes ago, someone made the fan-made compilation album of Ayu's live cover songs from her Idol era with the same title, and now she really made it~

will it be release in the next PHYSICAL single?

another ballad? *sigh*
oh well new song right

Not sure I want to listen to the preview since I don't know if I'll get the whole song. haha Hopefully it's on her next single, like others have said. :)

MOON is kinda catchy mid-tempo ballad.
And the title reminds me of her old song she covered on IDOL ON STAGE show :D

^I've never seen any of that IDOL ON STAGE stuff. what was it like?

@lumieregrl i love your Gackt siggy and avatar.

I didn't forget about this, but for some reason I thought we wouldn't hear about it for a while... I really like the way it sounds a lot! :D I hope we get the full version in HQ soon! :D

p.s.
Why does everyone seemed so confused about what this song is? It's a bonus song for Rock'n'Roll Circus, right? Exclusive for TA members to download via chaku-uta when they buy the album. Did everyone miss that memo cause I see people asking if it's her next single? XDD

It sounds really nice, I hope we can hear a good quality in time.

so the bonus song's title is MOON, cute title!
It reminds me the unofficial pre-avex album :D

btw I've listened to the preview and.. it sounds nice but nothing special imo.
But oh well it's just a low quality preview lol. Maybe with a better preview I'll change my mind

This song makes me feel all happy kinda like when Moments was first released in the Visee CM (I also remember a number of members here saying it wasn't ayu singing but that's another topic). Moments is my favorite song of all times and I have a feeling this song may be tied with it when a full version comes out.

I hope everyone has the capability to realize this!!

She needs to release a new triple A-side called 「U」!! There was A, H, and & now there has to be U!! "Ayumi Hamasaki & U"!!

Totally agree.:yes I did an Ayu fanwork single call "U". You can see from the link in my signature.:P

It's only a chourse? I thought, it is the full song.
Might be possible, it is for the new single.

I love it! If it does get released as part of a single, I think it won't be an a-side, but rather similar to how Secret was placed on the glitter/fated single.

it sounds good.. :) no negative impressions yet. :P

Yes! I've been thinking for years that she would one day have a song related to the moon.
