It's better than LADY MIND... but Shinichi Osawa really shouldn't be composing/producing music. He's a DJ/Re-Mixer and he clearly has no knowledge in how chords work. Both "PARADISE" and "LADY MIND" have one chord that lasts throughout almost the entire song... It doesn't sound good... especially in the parts right before the chorus.

As for the PV, it's a little lazy. The covers would have you thinking the PV is going to be glamorous and elegant, yet it ends up being a cheap way to make it look like there's lots of sets, when in fact it's all green-screened. The dancing scenes look okay, but its a little too obvious that none of what she's dancing in is actually there.

This is a better release than LADY MIND, but I can't see it charting on Oricon. It doesn't have anything about it that makes it addictive or appealing enough to be a hit. Hopefully her next release will do a little better, and hopefully she'll stop working with Shinichi Osawa. Avex or not... he's crap.
