For some reason this song just screams "GREEN" at me and the chorus sounds like a more upbeat and "upside-down" version of GREEN's chorus xD

I think I would have preferred Ayu to be a voice in the game than this song, it's kind of underwhelming. Hoping it will grow on me instead :3

I liken this song to her past 3 single releases. Not very memorable.

I actually really like it. There's a sound about it that reminds me of her older works. And there certainly is a distinct quality in her voice that's different... I wonder if she's taken different measures to improve. I'm curious and excited. Thank you for sharing!

Haven't been much into Ayu and when I hear a new song that sounds exactly like songs from a few years ago... well, let's just say that it is disappointing.

This is really an "Ayu-ish" song. Some parts of the chorus (melody) remind me of "GREEN" and some "Blossom".

I love the last part of the song which gives me goosebumps. The piano and melody part reminds me of Koda's 1000 no kotoba.

This is good. Can't wait for the full version.

That's what I thought too. It sounds too much like they just copied and pasted blossom with sending mail. I hope the full version is better than this.

I really don't get the sending mail comparisons. I mean, sending mail's chorus is very repetitive - not much change in melody. Repeat, repeat, repeat. I love sending mail, don't get me wrong (2nd fav on Love songs next to November) - but I am not hearing the comparison.

Exactly like what songs from a few years ago? Don't tell me it reminds you of HEAVEN or part of Me?

While the first few seconds of the verse do remind me of blossom all the similarities with the other songs end there for me.

If Ayu can have songs, such as ANGEL'S SONG and fairyland, which apparently sound similar (I never heard the similarities), then progress can sound like blossom.

the only similarity i found are only glitter and BLUE BIRD, which are mixed in the mashed up mega mix (not sure the name).

i do hear a little bit of blossom in the verses of progress.
