'Feel the love' short ver. preview from YouTube

[pimenta]

I usually love TK's compositions, I think the main problem with this song is the arrangement and DJ Hello Kitty... But then again, as it's DJ Hello Kitty's first job I guess we shouldn't expect anything better than... well, that LOL
I still like it though, because it's so catchy, but I won't deny it could be better arranged...

[Taishaku]

I may be in the minority but I can actually Feel the love for this song!
She needs to stick to this and give the rock stuff a little break.

[SURREAL__RAINBOW]

It's doing pretty good on Youtube! Keep watching ;D

[tokyoxjapanxfan]

^ Yeah I just watched on youtube and the views are pretty steady!

[Ayusan]

The girl said she will make, only the best music she is able to make ... and she come up with that .... since FIVE she got too many bad songs but nothing that made me feel so ashamed for her. After 15 years this the only thing she is able to record?

That some fans can find it fun, catchy... ok why not, though personally I find it annoying like hell, but that's taste. Speaking from a musical education point of view, quality wise it's just garbage. And it's not what you would expect from a 15 years old long career!

TK can make dated things but can pop up with some nice things, there the fact it sounds dated isn't even the problem, it's just a bad song, with bad composition, arrangements, ....
In fact it's what I would expect from a brainless fresh idol, something composed in 5 minutes, recorded in less time but not something for Ayumi Hamasaki and that's shame.

She got fun songs but not something as bad than this. I don't get her. Why not so long ago we could feel the hard work and now it's like she doesn't give a damn about quality ( although that the first thing she should focus on as a pro that sells her work) and just throw whatever happens to be recorded.

But if she really thinks she recorded a good song (the best music she can pull off after 15 years) then I wonder what happened to her after Love songs release, and for me it starts with FIVE.

^I don't think Ayu needs or wants you to feel ashamed for her...

And while you keep complaining, the views on Youtube keep rising on a speed they never did before.

Considering she is a popstar... mission acomplished.

she just jumped on what's popular right now or what's popular right now somehow colided with what she's liking at the moment and here we have it. Music is like fashion it comes in waves of a popular style.

personally i think the composing part, the melody is very nice, the thing that bugs me is the megh arangement. It could have been a great piece of work.

I think for the most part people who ahve been fans for more than 3 years are harder to be impressed with the work a singer releases. I too, noticed, that new stuff gets my attention for at the most a month then i just get borred, or go back to the stuff i love lol

[Yoake]

For me, Ayu write feel the love because she wanted to do such kind of music after she was attending to the korean *stuff* festival (can't remember the good name). It makes her want to create that kind of music.

& People, let's complainers complain & let's dance together all night

I think it was the Ultra Music one where she met Armin?

I have no idea what she's saying, haha.

Seems as though some articles hinted at this EDM/dance music release.

Nobody else that I can remember is doing upbeat 90's jpop right now... A lot of people are doing EDM, but they are mostly copying the USA trends, and because of that, they are sounding very western.

Go to bed ! You are tired !

I don't understand why some of you are so critical. Until you have the power and knowledge to do something similar or better you should be more carefull with you words. If you are good then prove it. Today, in this world everybody have to say something bad about someone but they should look in the mirror first.

[Mari-chan]

I really don't understand why people make so much trouble about that single. Maybee.. it is not her best single... maybee it sounds cheap or what ever. But well.. she made greate music since 15 Years.. so why not let her make a single, she wanna make.. even if it is not a good one.
We don't know, what merry go round will sound like.. or pray.

[heymrdj]

Who cares if it's Dj Hello Kitty's first job? M was Ayu's first composition and it's a masterpiece! They were lazy, that's it. She might be getting her fame back with this, but there's no way she's getting more respect as an artist.

[truehappiness]

Composing is pretty different from arranging/producing. Ayu has only it once in her career with WONDERLAND.

I feel like fans need to stop acting like whatever recent release is what she's going to be making for the rest of her career. That's not what Ayu is like or has been like at all. Even though we've gotten phases where she makes mostly rockish stuff or mostly medium, usually that ends or she puts something that is a bit different on the album.

[Neko★munication]

^ I kinda have to agree with that last part. I swear, sometimes the sweeping generalizations Ayu fans make based on new releases make me wonder if short-term memory loss is rampant among the fanbase

[truehappiness]

I don't think you have to be a new fan to be into what Ayu's been doing. Some people have been fans for the last decade or more and they like this song and other recent releases quite a bit!

[Pieces_of_SEVEN]

I'm sorry, (not sorry), but I LOVE this song~

[Pieces_of_SEVEN]

Hm...tbh I'm SUPER skeptical about the track with VERBAL though...like...it doesn't seem like ayu.

I think it'll be great, though it was something she should have considered back in 2005-06 during height of the m-flo loves era.

VERBAL is super creative linguistically (the way he manipulates several languages in a single track is just phenomenal), and the m-flo duo as a whole is pretty good about staying true to the style of their fellow artist as opposed to converting them to their style. =)
