New single 'Feel the love / Merry-go-round' out 12/25 [II]

[ComatoseBunnySnatcher]

Is the single getting radio play (does anyone know) or is the public unaware its even being released? Hopefully not the latter :/
And where's the promo?!

[truehappiness]

Well, we originally got the full version of Feel the love from a radio station. However, it probably isn't getting major radio play for now.... maybe closer to release.

[AyuWorld]

WOOW! never underestimate when the cat remix Feel the love haha

[YUKARI]

love the single! but I'd love to see a remix for MGR too *____* hope she'll make something for next single

[krtman2002]

Merry-go-round is a masterpiece... I wasn't so hyped with a Ayu song since snowy kiss, XD.

yes! like acoustic version just guitar and Ayu i bet MGR remix will be in the Pray single!

[jyujiw]

This single is made for pure joy. The remixes are crazy good to dance!

Feel the love is typical but great, it's so damn catchy.
And MgR
I can agree that the arrangement in the chorus and pre chorus are pretty generic, but even in EDM I think they have a special value, you know? I don't know how to say, I think it's generic but at the same time it's not something that I'm always listening to, it's different than the north american do and such...

Overall, a right step in this comeback.

Don't really like merry go round. The beginning is really nice but the rest of the song isn't good. The arrangement is weak, the sounds are overused. The rap don't fit with the melody & the end is bad with her "daladala".There is too much effect on her voice too.

*ONLY* 5-10 seconds!? Hmm... I'm not sure how much this will differentiate between the "short" and the "full" - if it's "only" short by 5-10 seconds...

The "daladala" part makes that song even more special. That's one of the things I LOVE from ayu, she gives her special touch to everything she sings.

WOW, merry-go-round is definetely one of ayu's best songs ever! I won't say it's the best song from the latest years only because there was Ivy.

[DonkeyKongRemix]

The more I listen to Feel the Love, the more I think it's awesome. I think it's a really good song! The lyrics aren't her most...I don't know, creative. (in terms of the chorus) I still think it's so catchy and her voice sounds good to me. I wanna hear her perform it live! <3 I like that it's the type of song I want to dance to.

I think it would've made a great opening to an anime! XD

Edit: haha, while listening to the song, I noticed Girugamesh in my signature was dancing in rhythm to the song. XD

These remixes are so goooooooooood.

Especially the HelloKitty mix of Feel the love. Dare I say it's better than the original.

[RealLight]

Just listened to it and I think is ok, still not liking Feel the love (neither it's remixes) and I tought Merry-go-round would sound better after hearing the full version, but it's so repetitive and that rap part still annoying me.

[BlackSilence]

have just listened to the whole thing... Feel the love is fine but weak and the remixes are horrid lol as for Merry-go-round.... darn it's such a mised opportunity for a great song... if only it had that misterious feeling throughout the whole song like it had in the begining...I like the melody but again the arangement apart from verses just annoyes the hell out of me and the rap parts seem to be out of place....it would have been a great piece of rock influenced matterial i think... The whole thing is not bad i think, but it's a very very weak single for me...

[Zeke.]

Yeah that mysterious and emotive feeling those strings give off at the beginning is really good.

Anyways, horrid single. Even worse for a "comeback". Ugh. Her marketing, creative team, everyone around her just sucks now. Not to mention her productions for the past few years sounded like the arrangements weren't as "lush" as they used to be. They aren't as rich, sound almost midi-like, and amateurish.

Whatev, I'll wait for the next thing. With every thing she releases that I dislike I think we get closer and closer to something epic.

[truehappiness]

I don't think that's the case at all. Things have been about the same as they usually are with her 'team'. With small changes here and there that are probably unnoticed by most listeners/fans/whatever.

This single is perfect for a 'comeback' and even though it may not be perfect for everyone, it's probably going to do extremely well with the Japanese audience.
