The Far away thing is the sound you can hear in the start of Far away, it's something electronic i think.

from the 0:00 to 0:35 you can hear what I think people say. In moon it's not so clear that sound but I still can heard it. If not the same, it's sooooo similar

I kind of hear it, but it's not as annoying as it is in Far away. That part of the song actually ruins Far away for me.

^ OMG it pretty much ruins the song for me, too--so annoying!! >.< And that reminds me of this time I was playing the song - a very rare time, indeed - and my husband was sitting beside me.... About half way through the song, he looks at me and he says, 'HOLY **** WHAT IS THAT NOISE???? IT'S SO ANNOYING! ' Lol.

lol that was like my reaction when I first heard it.. I was like "seriously? is this a joke? this can't be the official song.. it's so annoying". Luckily ayu came out with an acoustic version of that song without that noise.

Omg, I love that. It's like some guy saying "down, down, pull it down" it sounds like - lol. But I really like Far away. I'm not listening to any rips of MOON until the single releases in high quality.

I like FA verses only, her vocal/maybe melody of chorus (and the beginning) it's annoying for me (all these shiku iku ~ shiku actually sounds like "pee" in my language.) I don't have anything against the music, and it's pretty simmilar to MOON, but not so "omg it sound just like this!11oneone".

Wow such hate for Far away.
I think I like it so much because it took me a while to appreciate it but now I really adore it.

SEASONS > Far away > vogue

I like MOON. I didn't get that "WOW"-factor from it though... but I feel like I robbed that of myself by playing the preview and the live version so much. The choruses are really good but the verses are kind of lacking. I really like this song though. I'm hopeful for blossom too!

I can't imagine a PV for MOON at all... hopefully, that's a good thing.

I had the same feeling while I listening to MOON.
Actually, I like it. The arrangement its great and I wonder why she did not use this composer more often.
But I didn't get the 'WOWOMGAMAZINGBESUTSONGUEVERRRRRR' thing though that's ok.

I can't wait for blossom now *_*!

Unlike everyone else, I thought the live version of MOON was pretty meh... but something told me I'd LOVE the studio version and you know what? It was completely correct.

This is gorgeous, just about everything I expected this to be when the single was annonuced. Classic Ayu all the way with some updated vocals. ^^ This is personally the only ballad she's done in a long time that's touched me. I haven't loved or even really liked a ballad she's done since Secret tbph (unless GREEN counts as one... does it? lol) so I'm very very happy with this release. <3333

Moon doesn't beat Jewel, Powder Snow, Voyage, or RAINBOW (and certainly not Hanabi ~episode 2~) in my book but I'll definitely be listening to it a lot more than Sunset/BALLAD/Days and You were... lol

^agree 100%

Her latest ballads have lacked something for me. The only recent one I really love is countdown, because it's really strong.

And MOON sounds so strong too! in a different way though, but the chorus just... Explodes into your head (does that sound odd?)

well anyhow, I'm completely in love with MOON!

The last ballad I liked by Ayu was Together when... and that wasn't that long ago. I really like MOON though!

Me too. Seasons is overrated. Far Away > Vogue > Seasons

And btw, I don't hear any similarity between Far Away and Moon.

I dunno....I heard this song right after listening to alan's new song....and this song just lacks power...I mean...its good....and its like one of the best songs Ayu has released in a while...but it's just not up to par with some of her older stuff....and this is not bad. The song is good....good stuff....just not AMAZING.
