Nor do I, honestly. When I read the original text, initially, I got the impression that it was the company's decision to change the single, and they sort of bent Ayu's arm.
My train of thought: From Ayu's stand-poitn: big summer single = fewer singles to release/promote = more free time for Ayu. From the company's stand-point: big summer single = one expensive release = one lump sum income, rather than a bunch of money all throughout the year. Ayu has released a lot of triple A-side singles in the summertime (H and & were consecutive summers). They would rather she release several small singles because they are cheaper to put out, and they create a longer span of income. The past two summers have been full of releases, and I'm sure they want to keep Ayu going on a roll and get several more singles out of this next album before its release (Instead of only one in the spring, one big one in the summer, and one in the fall/winter). Ayu has been doing so many double A-sides lately (let alone triple A-sides - which are rare for any artist), they probably want to thin her about a bit.
If this is the case, then with this single change, I feel there will be another single at the end of the summer, similar to the pattern the past two years have taken.
