Days/GREEN covers didn't have any Green... Mirrorcle World didn't have any mirrors... BLUE BIRD didn't have any blue birds... why do people assume that the cover is going to be based around the titles?
MOON isn't a song about the moon, it's a bittersweet love ballad, with mentions of the moon yes. And I guess blossom isn't about just flowers, is it?
I think the cover IS Creative! I love the light and shading, the colors, the pose, the eyes and the hair, it all gives a serene and warm feeling, something that does fit with the songs!

Because it would be more interesting ... and creative of course. It doesn't have always to be like that, but she hasn't done anything creative (I'm talking about her covers) since BLUE BIRD xD

And yes, I agree it's stupid that Days/GREEN didn't have any green, Mirrorcle World didn't have any world full of mirrors, but BLUE BIRD had some blue XDD

Well yes, maybe, but I would find it boring if every single cover was based on the title of the song.
The title "MOON" gives you the image of a moon in your head, right? Why have a cover with an image of a moon, when you already have that image in your head? Why not tell even more about the song, than just MOON, through the cover? I find it creative when artists can make single/album covers that explains the material, instead of telling you the title(s).
Sorry for the rant. I just find the cover fits perfectly with the material, and feels a lot more creative then just saying "Hey, the titles of the songs are MOON and blossom, so why not have a moon and some flowers on the covers?" and then doing just that. It doesn't feel all that creative to me, but that's my opinion, and everyone else has their own opinion. Nothing wrong with that, of course.
