miwa is playing the rhythm guitar in her 4th Thread

[thinkingoutloud89]

could you please stop makinga miwa vs. ayu battle out of it and even post ayus cover here? they are nothing alike: not in terms of music, style nor age. The only competizion is that they are going to release an album on the same day.

heck, miwa isn't even a JPop diva and she is closer to what YUI was once then to what ayu ever was - so stop making up a rival-battle.

Okay, I removed the Ayu references.

But I've decided not to buy this album - I'm just not sure what direction miwa is going...

I did edit out that cover post. I changed my opinion, based on above comments...and I have to agree, the cover was poorly executed. I just don't like the covers very much, especially with the text - and even the CD+DVD version, what were they using? Wordart? That's cheap to me, and maybe to some of you.

Knowing it's miwa, who usually never disappoints when we talk about covers, now... no more. At least for this release.

Seriously, that pic is overly retouched, her face looks like a plastic skin, dandelions looks fake (if they want to make it fake, make it like a guitar in guitarissimo) plus that horrible fonts and colours , I can't. This era is seriously... ugh.

Have to agree with those. I have to wonder - where is miwa going to these days...? Is she becoming more of a girl that is a "tried this, done that" kind of musician...?
