Yeah, same for me. I don't even dislike the version on the album and have gotten entirely used to it in the context of the album, but I'd rather seen the original version included and the gone with the wind version put on the single as an extra. Though at this point I wonder how putting the original on the album would even affect its flow. Maybe I'll try it out...

Yeah, Memorial Address has major girlish vibes (this was an early favourite for me) in that it has a live-in-studio sound. To what extent it actually is of course remains to be seen; the naming it 'take 2' may even be a clever ploy (we're onto you, Avex) to plant the idea that it is a live-in-studio recording. The plot thickens... Whatever happened to that conspiracies thread?

I agree btw that WHATEVER sits super well where it is. The whole flow of LOVEppears just works like a charm for me.
