It sounds really sounds like the old ayu. But I'm not really liking the song . Maybe a longer, more HQ preview/the whole song will change my mind.

It's hard too judge from the preview. I need full version.
I didn't like MOON preview that much, but when I heard full version I was like "WOW! It's a masterpiece". I love this song now.

It's ok. Listened to it once and will hold out now 'til final release.

Kinda wish Ayu would make more "exciting" music. It's just too boring lately... It doesn't have that "wham!" Ayu attitude anymore.

I love it! I've always liked Tetsuya Komuro and a song is born so I'm happy she's using him again! It has such a nostalgic feel

i have to say, i'm very hopeful about the beat of the song. seems like there's a hard drum beat kind of thing. i like that.

I think the best thing about it is her voice. I would like to hear how it is in the verses too however
The first time I heard it was okay. Now I repeat it cuz strangely I like the preview
With moons preview I heard it twice and thought whatever. But now I love it
Judging that I like this preview. I expect the same for the whole song

I do worry ayu is afraid to be expirimental again. Whenever she is there's just a bunch of complaints the past couple year. Like NL tracks, Sparkle, SLT, LD....with lots of lovers seems to come lots of dislikers and not much acclaim

I'm not feeling this song at all. Her voice sounds really great, but I'm not enjoying the melody or instrumentation at all. I hope my mind changes, but unlike a lot of you guys, my opinions on the previews usually hold the same for the full song.

I usually like TK, so yeah, I'm looking forward to it I've not really been liking her songs these days, so even though he's an old composer, in a way it's kind of refreshing.

This preview totally reminds me of vintage Ayu. No surprise that it was composed by Komura as well...I love 90's J-pop .

the melody didn't wow me from the preview. you can barely hear any instrument so I'll save judgement, as usual, for the HQ audio.

I feel that this song sounds way to old. I prefer her pop and rock songs.

I don't know how I feel about it. I know the first time I heard it I didn't like it. I guess I'll wait until I hear the full version to make any decisions though

As usual, I can't judge fairly from such a small preview. But it sounded like a long chorus... Honestly, it doesn't sound like it'll be a big hit, but that's just from the preview. It wouldn't surprise me if the full preview hits us right in the face with an enormous wow factor. =D

I thought most of the album tracks on Rock'n'Roll Circus had that wham thing going on. We're in for a ballad-y year it seems with Ayu though, so get a pillow ready.

(One Kikuchi ballad coming up... a Komuro... midtempo ballad thing? And a few other songs possibly? She mentioned making LOTS of new songs so... WHO KNOWS WHAT'S IN STORE.)

From that little bit of crossroad we could hear, I think I like it. There's something RED LINE-ish about it, with the mood of Replace? So yeah, I like it.
