The way the beat is and the progression of the song in the verses really is similar to blossom though.

The only reason that it sounds like sending mail that I can think of is maybe how low or soft the verses are and then it leads into this fierce chorus but unlike sending mail, progress doesn't seem to have that bridge that let's you know it's coming. The chorus comes out of nowhere.

But on another note, what is this "cute" voice everyone is talking about? It doesn't really sound very cute to me, just... soft.

I know.

I feel like if anyone else tried singing the song to it normally, they wouldn't necessarily be labeled as cute. I think that's just how Ayu sounds when she's not in her crazy is this-About-You-Mirrorcle mode.

Can't wait for a lyric translation!

Ayu tweeted about a new cm/song for s-cup.. She said the melody is amazing and she should be writing lyrics for it.

Possible double a side? Hm

I actually think the new CM is for something else The photoshoot for S Cup was done awhile ago, when Ayu had long hair, so I think the CM was probably shot around the same time. And S Cup commercials tend to have their own theme song / jingle music.

I like the song, but really interested in the game as well. I really like the settings in the beginning. Such a pretty place to be in. Ahaha. Man... I need to get a PS3 soon...

The song sounds epic, but it makes me want to play this game. I'm a huge tales of... games. Hopes it comes to the US.

Otherwise, can't wait for the full version of the song.

I know I read somewhere someone asking what platform this game is on! I cant find you again!
But it is a PS3 only... so im sure if it comes to the states it will be Xbox 360 and PS3.
But the company will most likely see how well Tales of Graces F sells and Tales of Abyss before they even think about bringing over this once (lord I hope they do! The way that Final Fantasy is going this series is turning out to be 1000x better!)

I still love the song and cant wait to hear a full version...

I think it's pretty epic. Its chorus will really get stuck in my head once I get to listen to the full a few times

Okay, don't want to make anyone jealous....just excited.
I'm sitting in the studio right now listening to the mix I did of "Progress".
It's awesome!!
Believe me when I say that "you ain't heard nothin' yet".
The preview only presents a small taste of a very dynamic powerful song and Ayumi delivers yet another amazing passionate vocal performance from the first note to the last! Plus, Mr. Yuta does his genius arrangement again.
Gives me chills every time I hear it!
Dare I say again that it's epic?
Well anyway, hope you don't have to wait too long.

Best,
