decision is like talkin' 2 myself part 2. I really like the beginning, but in my opinion her singing doesn't quite fit the song. I wished someone else would sing it with a little higher pitched voice and without that ever-so-dreadful vibrato.

the orchestra version of fated is the real jewel on the single. I knew this would be good stuff, since I adore all of her orchestra songs (I got some preferences for acoustic instruments and orchestras).

Most people seemed to think that she used a lot less vibrato than they originally thought would be in this song. :O

I think that her singing is just fine for the song as it is. This is how she sang is this LOVE? and stuff after all. o_o

t2m has a horrid name but the song makes up for it. can't say much about the pv
i LOVE decision! though i'm not particularly fond of her vocals. they're like her 'live voice', if anyone knows what i'm talking about

have yet to listen to fated

"Wow." is about all I can say. I don't think any of her singles felt this strong and able since "fairyland" or "STEP you/is this LOVE?", which was over SIX singles ago.

This is just "Wow." Something you can honestly use to seduce people into JPOP.

god, she's NOT tarja turunen. she should sing not in her usual ballady-vibrato style in relatively heavy rock songs. but that's my personal opinion. the refrain is just fine nonetheless.

strangely enough her vibrato never disturbed me on the (miss)understood rock songs (love these <3). maybe I just got used to it or something...

^^I think a nice piano piece and a few woodwinds would have added, wouldn't it? MAy be some brass, but not too much.

WOW! Despite the hair, despite the horrible PV, I LOVE this single. It's amazing. The aov for fated is just beautiful. Decision is awesome. I'm totally buying this. I hated glitter (really hated), now this is the Ayu I like.

I really like this single! I loved decision and I'm excited for what the PV is going to be like. fated orchestra was really good too but I thought that it sounded like something was missing...

talkin' to myself is my favorite song on it...totally awesome

I couldn't say what single this is the best "since", but it is definitely a single to remember.

I think it's safe to say that the Ayu community is pretty pleased with this single. X) Including me. Man decision rocks my socks. The chorus is so amazing.

And fated was nice as well, but I prefer the original.

they didn't suck for me, but they weren't all stellar. the case with most singles for me is that i like a song or two, but usually there's one or two on there i don't like. i like all three songs on this one though, and that hasn't happened in a long time.

& was a masterpiece, this one is too! The other ones might have been good, but just not as outstanding.

I'm with you touchedstar.
