I don't really know why...

I prefer HANABI, but...

Shouldn't this thread be under the Ayu Polls forum? This is the Ayu Chat-Room forum, which contains all the chatting related to Ayumi Hamasaki, without polls...

Ugh the toughest decision I could ever make.

HANABI has an amazing instrumentation (that music box...omg) and it's just so classic, but HANABI ~episode II~ is so emotional and strong...I'm just not going to vote. Both songs are too strong.

I love the emotion in HANABI~episode II~ and Ayu sings it beautifully. It's my favorite ballad of hers.

HANABI obviously, it's my favorite Ayu song of all time. ~pt2~ doesn't even come close.

HANABI ~episode II~

This was so hard X_X I absolutely love the melody for HANABI, but episode II is just so much more emotional and I always get overwhelmed by it

Episode 2 definitely, her vocals are so beautiful and the chorus is EVEYRTHING!
HANABI never really captured me and still hasn't.

HANABI ~episode II~

II.
I get why people love the 1st but it doesn't work for me as well.
II just has one of the best pieces of music in her discography (IMHO), a beautiful PV and it just sounds way more powerful vocally. I do have to say, the lyrics are weaker than the first one's.
