I don't like it as well. The worst thing she's done until now. Don't like the video too >_>'

Everyone's entitled to an opinion, it seems more people hate it than love it though >.>

It's sort of risky for alan to do a song that's so hit-and-miss so early in her career. But then again, what most western fans hate, Japan eats up, so...

Whoaaaa...best covers ever!! I love the first one!!! And 'Sora Uta' is SO MUCH better than 'Natsukashii Mirai'!! As I said in the the download thread, it's almost better (if not as good) as 'Ashita e no Sanka' and 'Sakura Modern'. I AM SO INLOVE WITH SORA UTA !

The song's okay. I might like it better the more I listen to it, but the PV is terrible D:

I think that's a good thing since she's trying something new. Unfortunately it didn't please me, but it's a change from the ballads she was releasing.

And the new covers are awesome! Too bad it didn't follow the pattern of closed/open eyes D=

Okay... Sora Uta is really good, but the PV is a hot mess. What is that dancing? O_O However, I love it all much more than I liked Natsukashii Mirai. I hated that song, it was sooo boring, IMO.

I also am in LOVE with those covers.

Kaze no tegami covers are absolutely beautiful!

I watched the Sora Uta PV today and I really liked it. She's like a goddess xD

I really love the song too! It sounds like something Hitomi Shimatani might do...(and I love her too, so that's a good thing)

Yay for alan, you keep me a fan!

I'm glad to see alan not getting corrupted. I'm glad avex is giving her songs that suit her instead of trying to sell her.

From what I'm hearing, it'll be out in December, once the Element singles are all out.

OK: I don't hate the song, but I'm not absurdly in love with it too~
I hoped that, if she made upbeat songs, they'd sound more like Sennen no Niji, so I guess that was kind of disappointing ^_^;

And I do think it's a bit Shimatani Hitomi-ish, and while I love a lot of her songs, I still feel like it would be better if the style didn't sound that similar... AND I HATE THE ENGLISH. GET RID OF THE ENGLISH. GET RID OF THE ENGLISH. GET RID OF THE ENGLISH!! *stops freaking out*

...still, really like the song. It's not completely mainstream, these are her best notes since Ashita, it's finally something upbeat. I feel like I'll like it each time better the more I listen to it too.

But, OH PLEASE GET RID OF THE ENGLISH
