I guess everyone's misunderstanding what I'm saying, actually. My concern is not about the quality, it's about the arrangement of the song. In the chaku-uta, there was none of that bass sound that it is so clearly, definitely there in the CM version. I think it's a horrible addition, and my hope is that the final version doesn't actually have that bass sound, and even if it does, at least turn it down and not let it rule over the entire sound the way it's doing in the CM version. That's all.

And this is all just my personal opinion. Many people like this CM version, I'm fine with that. I love the song itself too, alot. Personally, I just don't like that CM arrangement.

It could always be that the CM used a demo of the song and CM has been done for a while but they had to wait on promotion and the chaku-uta is the actual finished product?

I'm probably wrong. Or this whole thing could be like Moments with the sound in the CM was VERY different compared to the actual studio recording. I personally loved the CM version. I think Moments might be a case where the CM and finished song are the most different. Ack! Sorry to get off topic.

Yeah, I understand. I personally like STEP you's CM version better too, it's slower and more rock-ish, instead of sweet pop like the final official version.

I love the official Moments though, it's my fav song. Haven't heard the CM version before actually.

well I sang a bit with low quality(not TA chakuuta verison)
I don't know if this will do some help

Oh I love the offical version of Moments, it's my favorite as well. Here is the CM version: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-pFjEDmduts

I agree with STEP you but I also notice the same thing with Beautiful Fighters and ANGEL'S SONG. All four songs sound very different than their final version. I hope for you that it was just the demo on MOON used in the CM.

I completely forgot about that CM version! That makes 5 that sound very different than the end result.

When that CM initially came out, no one thought Ayu was singing the song.

I was so baffled that people would think that Ayu would be starring in a CM (in 2004, as she did it in 2002 with BREATH's song) that didn't have her singing the song... haha.

I remember when all that drama was going on! I think you were one of the few that kept saying it was Ayu. I knew from the moment the CM came out it was her as well.

[Picaflor 7/4]

to be clear, you're talking about this video right? to tell you the truth, call me deaf, but I really don't hear that much of a difference from the album version.

I didn't even know about that and just looked it up, omg. The CM version sounds SOO much better than the final one.. seriously. I wish the full version sounded like that

[ayumisrael]

I usually love both final mixes and CM versions since the CM versions sound like an altenative versions for me and both sound good. =D

[ストロボ・EdGE]

I can't find the CM with Beautiful Fighters in it. I found the Step you one on YT and it's really different.

Wow, that Moments CM... Sorry but her voice there makes me cringe, and Ayu has never ever made me cringe! The way she sang "hana" was ; I dunno.. if I was around at that time I would not have believed that was her.

i still don't hear that much of a difference in the songs. i think people are exaggerating. besides her voice sounding a bit different, i can't pick out that much of a change. besides, there's way too much talking going on in a lot of these commercials to really be able to compare them.

I know quite a few of the people on the forum at the time who liked the CM version of Beautiful Fighters and didn't like the end result. I don't think people are exaggerating but that's just my opinion. And like truehappiness said, when the CM version on Moments came out a lot of members didn't believe it was her.

I don't get it, what is this?

And I still can't hear a difference in the MOON CM clip from the chaku uta.. it's like exactly the same this time lol.

In this one, neither do I, it's just at a slower tempo it seems.

She should release a CM version collection. That'd sell like, 7 copies.

Good Lord! I hear it, she sounds rough!!! The CM's hot though! I'll just mute it and fantasize~ ;D

Foyuki was singing the part of MOON that his friend let him hear when he called him from the concert a few days ago.

I think you just can't hear it because you don't want to hear it, haha. Beautiful Fighters has quite a bit more of a heavy sound compared to the woman-cheer-song version. I thought from the title that it'd be a harder edged song [FIGHTERS] but it ended up being more Beautiful than Fighting-ready, haha.
