Shape of love is so... sooooo classic sounding. It feels like early 2000s Ayu hopped onto sixxxxxx, lol.

[maxikot]

I'm happy with its sound. Who said that every artist must follow trends or change style. Also i don't agree with opinion that production for this song at least, is bland. It's a fine ballad ^^

[holy_arrow]

OMG, the melody is so holy ... I feel very comfortable for this outstanding song although I didn't like it through the first time listened to the preview.
This mini album is flawless as I believe <3

I really liked A One and thought it was going in the right direction in a return to form. I would love something like Heartplace again but I'm not sure that's likely. I've been playing Heartplace a lot on repeat lately. I'd love a clean but raw version of Last Minute with Heartplace elements because there is so much else right with Last Minute

OMG!!!!!!!!!!! Shape of Love is perfection!!!

She has the drums going on for this one, too! Really makes the song that much more epic!

[truehappiness]

It has a very cheesy late 80s/90s Western pop feel cause of the guitar/drums IMO, but it really works here~

Right on time!

Funny stickers strike again, lol. They're avoiding using mini album with this release now. Wonder why.

[rainbow_smile]

Listened to the Shape of love preview. The intro is so beautiful! Loving the song now.

Because Avex send it to a chinese fan to leak news (pics+music) one by one at an exact hour. And like this Avex avoid japanese law.

The mini is shaping up to be awesome. Loving how Shape of love sounds too.

Shape of Love preview sounds so beautiful. That instrumental part is so soothing. This needs to leak in the next few hours.

[pepper]

I want booklet pics :c

[stickyrice]

I take back when I said Shape of Love sounds boring. It's actually quite romantic (in a very cheesy way) and I love that! The instruments is giving me a late summer on the beach as the sun sets vibe lol

Lol a lot of ppl here like to complain for the sake of complaining tbh. One day they be treating A ONE as if it's second coming of Jesus then the next day they'd be complaining like a bunch of hipsters.

And cheap? Please, Namie's _genic and Koda's last few albums sounded like a compilation of loaned demos.

A ONE and sixxxxxx are divine tbh

Shape of love sounds awesome. I love this arrangement and the piano. It's such a wonderful song. This preview is to short T_T want the full song.
