I've never heard the Monochrome single version. I want to listen to it now...
1) I remember Hikki saying there was a reason for Teiku 5's ending so quickly, but I could never find an answer for what that reason was. Thank you!

2) Four years or so back, I found the single version - and was convinced for the longest time that I'd received a "fake" or "tampered with" copy of the song. x_x It didn't occur to me to actually go looking around to see if that was how the song was MEANT to be. The song itself isn't different from the album version, IIRC, it's just the ending bit that's different.
