I have to say that "crossroad" is a so-so single. I think both "crossroad" and "SEVEN DAYS WAR" are good song, but they are lacking something. I don't even know why, but they sound so 'unfinished'. Okay, most of you probably think I'm crazy now, but I don't know how to put it in words. The remix of blossom on the other hand is fine. It's not as good as the original song, but the new arrangement sounds fierce and gives the song a whole new image.
I'm still looking for rips of the Orchestra versions of "MOON" and "blossom".

blossom orchestra ver. is very beautiful, but kinda "tame".
MOON is really something though, but nothing like the original.

I feel the same way as flying proud, I don't really feel them yet.

I like this whole single minus the blossom remix!

I love crossroad and SEVEN DAYSA WUH, and the Orchestra songs are pretty. Good job Ayu!

Virgin Road is so amazing, I can't get over it! This has to be the most beautiful ballad since JEWEL for me, but that's my personal opinion.

ahhh this single turned out to be so good!!! crossroad at first from that 30 second preview was GARBAGE to me. and i LOVE the full song haha. It has such an "epic" feel. A lot better than moon and blossom for me. same scale as you were... and ballad.

seven days war is nice. the lyrics are so nice i cant resist (even though its a cover).

the MOON remix is not my fav, blossom one is cute. the clockwerk 1 is meh.

I don't understand why people complain about Ayu doing covers, for me SEVEN DAYSA WUH is awesome. It's one of my favorite songs by her already!

There's nothing wrong with doing a cover of a song, especially if you make the cover sound better than the original!

the blossom remix sounds like noise to me, haha.
unfortunately... was looking forward to it. but i prob won't listen to that much.

orchestra versions are fantastic. but i'm a sucker for them anyway

YAAAAAAAAAAAY! I don't like MOON and I was hoping the orchestra would give me a change of heart (like fated "orchestra version" did, it's my favorite Ayu song lol). If it is almost MY STORY Classical calibur I might die of joy!!!! I can't download it at this moment though so thank you for your comment!

Her vocals in SDW are probably my most favorite of her career besides JEWEL. They're extremely mature and beautiful.
