We've got two songs out of the three planned for the single. There's still one song for us to hear! I seriously think that so far these songs fit with the 'summer' theme. I mean, what else would you want? Another alterna? No, cause then everyone'd compare it to alterna and say she just did the same thing over again.

I think it's good. We should not be so expectant for 'amazing' songs when we don't really know what is 'amazing?'

We'll probably end up LOVING the full ver. :] <3

Well if she's your favorite artist, and she's wowed you many times in the past, of course you are going to have high expectations for her.

I don't think people should condemn a song after hearing only 15 seconds, but they are free to do what they want...there ARE people who judge whether they buy CDs of not based on previews they here at record stores and whatever, and that's their perogative.

Of course, I personally think previews can be deceiving! For example, when I heard previews for "July 1st", I thought I would LOVE it. But it actually turned out to be one of my least favorite songs (Ayu's vocals get veeerrryy screechy)

And in response to how people would complain if she made another Alterna....I would adore it if she made another Alterna because that song is HOT HOT HOT!! lol

^lol, she is the queen of jPOP

I wasn't that interested in either at first, but now I think they both rock X_x the songs sound as if something really cool is gonna happen JUST when the cm ends though!! Oh well. I just don't like the title "Beautiful Fighters" and the english in the song...

Well, I think it's that Ayu = favorite for a lot of people, but then again people always have this 'hidden expectation' that it'll be this MASTERPIECE. I think we should just let things go and enjoy what comes to us, rather than 'complain.' And I'm not saying that opinions = bad~ It's just that this has happened with ...almost every single since 2003 XDD

Whee~
We'll get our masterpiece sooner or later.

The only thing that keeps somehow bothering me is that people always say (including me) that the new songs are reminiscent of others... that totally means Ayu need better or new arrangers in order to give the people a newer sound, a new face, a new stage on Ayumi's career, not just a bunch of singles.

Anywya, I liked the preview.

Maybe my opinion will change when I hear the full song. But the preview doesn't do much for me. Different strokes, for different folks.

Well those songs were happy songs. What do you think they're gonna be? XD ANGEL's SONG as a depressing ballad = o-o wtf @ wolf kungfoo.
"beautiful fighters" did not sound rock at all! But heck, "About you" didn't sound rock and turned out, it was!

Reminds me of July 1st.. and Beautiful Fighters reminds me of Independent.. Hmm, maybe we have another H?

Hopefully the other song will be a ballad in a drama tie-up or something.

If Ayu was still doing Visee we'd get so many more awesome CMs.. :3

Oh well. The drama season has started already.. although I'm not sure if a new one will start up later xD

I read in a description that this single is full of tie ups~ So.. :]

I just KNOW it'll be a ballad, cause well, all of the 'one character title-summer singles' had one xD If it doesn't though I'll be so disappointed!

I can't wait for her to perform BLUE BIRD at a-nation! <3

honestly. people keep expecting an awesome song from Ayu, and then when it comes out are just dissapointed. I mean yes the preview may sound bad but you never know, it may end up being one of your favorite songs.

I wasn't THAT impressed with the previews BUT they were decent.

One thing that I commend Ayu for is always having consistant songs, meaning the majority of her songs are good, never horrific. Can't say the same for a lot of other artists.

P.S "NO song I repeat NO song can beat rainbow" to me anyway...........

IMHO, the instrumentals on the CM are probably gonna be changed, since usually with the Panasonic CMs they have a simpler arrangement. For example, alterna's melody was a bit like Beautiful Fighters in the FX8 CM. Plus in this d-snap one we have the song all drowned out by the annouuncer x.x
One of the cases where the song was NOT altered was the Panasonic B&D / Music Sweets CMs. Those stunk xD Stupid B&D. :3

And yes, I think Beautiful Fighters is the 'rockish' track of this summer.. compared to BLUE BIRD. :]

<3 these new songs. They're freakin' awesome!

Hah...u never noe...A happy song is always what u need if u need to be cheered up or u wanna feel MORE happy...

Yes the preview is bland...but the melody gets into my head so fast...Its only a 15s preview and it cant do much...

Ayu did say she is changing...she wants to sing songs which she like....let Ayu be simple for once yea?...
