I really hope it does! Imagine they don't air it though and make people buy the single to see it lol. That would be another way to help it sell..

[Shirlaay]

This is so exciting! And I really love the covers too (:

[ayufan-]

i am so curious how it will turn out

[waterballoon]

young aspiring painter who's stricken with a disease... lol i knew it's gonna be a cheesy teary Asian drama but I can't wait to watch it~

[AyumiBest]

The covers aren't what I expected but I don't hate it.
Oh I really want to see the blossom pv now.

[Tasked]

I like the covers; they're not that plain really (except for the background). I don't see how the covers reflect crossroad, but maybe that'll come later... I will definitely buy these ... And the song... gosh... the title is AMAZING.. sounds like a dark rock song.. however, the song is very boring and for me, very not-ayu... but.. knowing ayu, she might cover this in her own unique way, and make a good song And the blossom PV... hmm.. well.. that'll just suck for me; who wants to see some guy playing some serious story in a mediocre happy pop song's pv.... not me anyway. but it might be good for her career to do a PV like this

[polka-dot-jewel]

I like the covers. They're a lot more modern than a lot of her recent covers. Maybe it's to appeal to teens and younger adults?

The plot for the "blossom" PV sounds interesting. Not having Ayu in it is a pretty big risk, though. PV's are a huge source of marketing, and even though this is getting big press, the video could honestly make or break the single =/ Well, I guess it depends on if this "blossom" PV airs on TV or not. The "crossroad" one surely will. Can't wait to see what that PV's about =D

^ U forgot, "I prefer S/S covers to this"

sorry peope, but S/S are epitome of fugliness and it's impossible for Ayu to beat those... or at least, i hope so

I find someone who prefer S/S covers on another site. I was O.O you're weird.

[Mirrorcle Monster]

I know people who really like S/S covers.....

Uhh I need to see these pics in HQ first to tell. But the text is miles better on the crossroad covers (except on the CD+DVD.. the text is kinda lame there).

oh but they are. Perhaps not normal street wear. But just normal high fashion clothes. Normal meaning...they don't really have a style that goes beyond being just fashionable.

Well so far as we know right now though. She could wear the outfit in a PV or something...and even though it would still be just normal, it would at least be tied to the single in some way.

that's all I'm saying lol


@ayumisrael: you forgot "boring", and also just "plain ugly"

LOL, right! XDD.

Yeah me too, I can't judge yet between them since crossroad's are still small.

Not at all I 've always thought MOON/blossom covers were just ok (the close-up is even ugly for me ^^"), and though we haven't HD covers yet, I already love these !

[joshohhhhh]

i like these covers much more than m/b, but they're still average. regardless, i'm very excited for this release.

[Luja.]

what a wonderful newsflash..! the covers are all amazing, I want to buy crossroad now...now...!! *doesn't have enough money*

and JJ on blossom PV..? Woooow!

+ I too love crossroad covers like a thousand times more than M/b.

Imo the problem with the covers it's that they look too cheap for an Ayu's single. They would be great for other less popular avex artists (e.g. Ami Suzuki or Maki Goto) but we all expect Ayu to be able to do something much better than that.

Personally, I don't hate the covers but I'd like to see something more innovative and different because the photos used in these covers looks like a ViVi or Scawaii photoshoot...

What makes you think these are sooo sub par for her when she has loads of covers like these in recent history and before? that's what I don't get. Where do people get their expectations from?

ayumisrael: Best post ever. =P

Oh yes, that is oh, so very true.
