aaaaah yeah never mind I remember it was duet Tsunku.

Cool anyways.

I listened to the original it's pretty cool. I can't wait to hear Ayu's version.

i wonder why so many people said that the song is good...
i already download the TM NETWORK version, and it's so blah for me...i don't like it at all...
i hope ayu will re-arrange it 100% so the new version will be very ayu-ish

Thanks for sharing.^^

Thanks for the update! I never thought of it that way, but it's true-- she almost never does covers.

I hope they rearrange SEVEN DAYS WAR to ROCK, I the title sounds so rockin' it needs some great guitars!

wonder why Ayu is covering a song...

anyway thanks for the info!!!

So good she's recieving more promo...

I hope it'll get re-arranged too but I kind of am doubting it. Maybe ayu's voice/emotion put into it can save it too. ~trying to keep positive here~ lol

oh, interesting. thanks for sharing.

gosh, I'm tired of covers~~~ :D :(

Interesting update :)

I found the song really nice.
I thought that it would be a trance-rock ballad kind of song but its a rock ballad.

Check it out here to listen the original version

hehe she only ever did 2 covers and SEVEN DAYS WAR will be just the 3rd one..

I think this will be absolutely amazing. I've just got a good feeling about this. The original is so-so, but I think Ayu will take it to a new level.

^ Yeah I agree. To me it makes sense that she'll be covering another Komuro song since he wrote crossroad. I'm really looking forward to this single.

I love how they didn't mention Jaejoong appearing in the blossom PV :laugh
