To me Don't look back sounds like ourselves than INSPIRE. And I adore it, I confess that. Just my kind of song. <3

its funny to me how everyone says its so boring and drone

i love it especially for that. its meaningful. i dont need overpowering show-off type vocals with catchy beats all the time. catchy interesting songs do not equal true music for me.

Don't look back took a beautiful cultural sound and made it into the beautiful meditative song which with the style goes hand in hand. its peaceful and the lyrics are beautiful. just what i need sometimes. ^___^ especially from ayu. but i see some people just have to have some spark and just pretty doesnt do it.

i think the song is wonderful. for me one of the best on the album. this is going with me while im on the beach at daytona.

I couldn't have said it better myself. I think some people are just more into the complex/epic arrangements, but ayu has so many of those types of songs, it's nice to have something that's just mid-tempo and a bit simple sometimes, you know? That's why I like NEXT LEVEL, Will, and In the corner so much.

THIS. I love those three songs as well!

I think Don't look back is a great addition to the album. It's not the strongest song (I'm a sucker for RED LINE ~for TA~ and Microphone at the moment) but it's not a filler either. It's got a really solid arrangement, and the lyrics are great. I really like it. I'm definitely excited for the PV though, the preview is killing me haha.

I like it a lot! It sounds different and that's what I love about the songs! Microphone is awesome too but it sounds very similar to other Ayu's rock songs

I told AyuHamasaki01 today; "Wow, it's really Koda Kumi-ish.. Perhaps we could expect a SHAKE IT-like-video. Haha. No, that's so not-Ayu."

I LOVE YOUR QUOTE. (:
That's my thoughts exactly...
-sigh- Love it... so much... what an epic song.
The chorus is wonderful, and it's laid back, yet not boring. It's very interesting, and I can relax to it, yet have it stuck in my head all day long. <3
-whisper- Don't Look Back..
Can't WAIT for the full video.
