Just noticed how Sky High's chorus is exactly how Negaigoto by Ami Suzuki sounds... its just the latter is a Ballad XD

^Is this the first time the CM guy was speaking Japanese at the end?

Wasn't it like that a decade ago :yconfused:yconfused

It's funny though how he only says the date in Japanese haha

CDJapan has shipped my sixxxxxx :love yay!

I forgot to mention previously that I absolutely loved Shape of love, it sounds very A Song for xx / LOVEppears to me ♡ There's something 'classic' about it. I hope she performs this song during the TA Tour :)

Really? How come I have never noticed it before? Didn't the guy always just say "Ayumi Hamasaki", the album/single title and "Now on sale"?

he says "new album" tho. They keep marketing this as a new album, but isn't it strange? I thought it was a MINI album.

I went to look for the CM of five, which you can find here, and they say "new mini album"
I am perplexed.

as long as they dun expand the album, i fine. LOL don't need another LOVE again saga.

Apparently the ads are on 3 Tokyo metro lines: Ginza, Marunouchi and Hibiya. Source

AAAAAA i cant remember :roflmao:roflmao

Could you imagine the meltdowns though if it happens, biggest ones coming from me. :faint:faint

Even if they say "album" it's still a mini-album they can't change facts just by saying something...

Nice! :D

It's 6 tracks though and the length is long enough for the album...

I got some SCAR like vibes from it, I think if she performs them live, they'd mesh well together.

great coverage (I think) :D

Okay, I can finally hear the Shape of love ending~Summer diary intro thing. But had to make the volume extremely loud, otherwise it's not really noticeable.
