The only thing wrong with it is the backup vocal. Her voice is SO emotional in this song and the backup vocals really kill that, the same way they killed "still alone" (on top of the album mix itself getting too poppy and not as raw as it sounded in the Takanoyuri CM). The backup vocals kinda smooth the sound out too much and it's a mismatch to the loud, powerful arrangement. The melody itself isn't that great but coupled with HAL's arrangement and what i've read so far of the lyrics, it all works out pretty nicely together.
