Thoughts on "fated" preview

So here we go again

What do you think about it? I found it was pretty different from what I imagined, which is a good thing. Seems like she's experimenting with a new phase I'm liking it since it seems to blend in with the "glitter" preview so far.

P.S: For those who did not grab the preview go here for the rip by freedreamer

I don't like the way her voice sounds :S
I REALLY don't like it.

Different, yes.

But still...

I think it's great so far! "fated" actually made me REALLY excited about the single. ^^ Still so long until the release...
But I have to say ayu's voice DOES sound different. Almost like a live performance (specially because of the emphasized vibrato in the end).

Hmm. I have mixed opinions.
Yes her voice sounds a little weird, but the tune sounds really lovely, I couldn't give a full opinion until I heard the actual song though.

Listen to it first time, it's a no.

Listen to it again, it's getting better.

Listen to it more, i love it

But i must say the voice sounds different, at first i seriously dunno it's Ayu singing it. Haha. Until the later part den i recognised.

You know what I think? it really sounds like a CREA composition to me...the melody is sorta random, like CREA songs are....
but so far, not very impressed..maybe the full version will be better....

^ Well if it is, so much the better. It's been a while since we got a CREA.

So far, it sounds excellent. It's a new kind of melody for her, it's not ultra repetitive like a Tetsuya Yukumi composition. (Watch it be composed by him, though.)

I like the way the melody sounds. Her voice in the song might take a while to get used to, but I like the way the melody is.

It's quite nice, I get better emotions than I got from the glitter preview.
It sounds like "It was PART 2 ~not going to rush the second part~".

Hummm... I don't know. Weird ? O.o

I'm SO disappointed about the music style of fated however T-T
I was really hoping for a rockish~dark song like alterna, NOT a ballad!
[Because I'm guessing we'll have a ballad at the end of the year, + we already have part of Me that is somehow sorta of ballad v.v]

For the song, "fated" sounds ok for the preview, but I don't really LOVE what I've heard until now~

Hope I'll change my mind listening to the fulll song =/
Not that I don't like it, but... Weird. Not the BEST moment to test new styles.

I like it! Has a sad atmosphere to it and suits the traditional japanese movie well. Loved the music arrangement and I can't wait for it to come out! Her music has been starting to sound the same recently to me and I think this will be a nice change!
