Ha. JEWEL. Not like momentum's bad, it's really good, but just doesn't hit it.

Romantic? I don't know if I found momentum all too romantic, not the same way I found JEWEL to be.

JEWEL for me, maybe this should have been a poll?

I don't know which one of the two songs I prefer, been listening to them about as much.

If I'm judging the two songs in terms of romance, you leave me no choice but to choose Jewel

Er, guys, I hope you know romantic can be another word for dramatic, sentimental, or emotional. e.g. the expression "The romance of a scene"...the word isn't necessarily about love. I don't know what the topic creator meant, but yeah.

In terms of music, JEWEL. For the PV, momentum no contest.

momentum, definitely. Ayu's voice sounds better in it (she hits the notes better than in JEWEL, in which some parts seem a bit scraggly). The composition really gets loud at the right time (the more emotional moments) and while it is upbeat it still matches the sorrowful tone of the song, just like in "M" (in which the composition is similiar--guitar riffs, melody shifts, background subtle bells, etc).

Romantic?

"JEWEL". But "momentum" is just as great.

I actually like them about the same. I think they're paired very nicely on the album.

I prefer JEWEL - the music for me matches the mood of the song. The music in momentum doesn't seem to match the mood for me.

In terms of romantic, JEWEL definitely win. But if you ask me which song I like more, I'll surely go for momentum though the vocal is a bit unmatched with the melody. I like the way how it is arranged.

Momentum.

Not exactly 'romantic' but it's a great song. Reminds me of 'M'.

ehmm..JEWEL is nicer, i guess..
both of them are not in the same types of music..so it's really difficult to choose..
momentum has its own taste, so does JEWEL..
