The opening is really dark and mysterious...I got goosebumps listening to it. I kept imagining a graveyard or something. XD Definitely does sound Gackt-esque, but once the vocals hit you, it definitely gives you an Ayu-esque flair. I LOVE her vocals; they are strong and confident, the way they were in "alterna" and "Pride"---I love it when she uses her voice to its full potential.

The bridge is a wonderful, emotion transition to the built-up chorus, which reminds me of a cross between "because of you" and "kiss o' kill". The multiple guitars, background strings and background beat weaving in and out give the song a really ethereal feel; I get a strong image of a really dark sky and lightening and stuff.

GUH. If this single doesn't sell lots, I will be pissed. XD
