I think forgiveness as a whole was a rather good single. One of my favourite ever.
Yep, that's what disturbing me the most.
They couldn't care less about the real talent, they only care about what is around this and buy quick the limited editions and first presses while they're hot if they are insteresting.
If they would care about real talent and singing ayu would still sell millions for some more years...
