^thats weird.
i was told id be getting the first press from cdjapan. thats what all the order stuff says...but i didnt get that cover....:/

[AyUta]

Wha? That IS weird. What cover did you get exactly????

[apple-pi]

^Wiki.ThePPN says that full-body pic is the first-press CD-Only cover... but I just checked Samii's blog, and apparently that might not be true... there's a notice about the new single at the top of the blog, before the posts. The notice shows 2 covers, one marked as "[CD+DVD] 初回盤、通常盤", and one marked as "[CD] 初回盤".
According to J-Talk, the japanese bit (初回盤) translates into:
初回 (n) first time;
盤 (n,n-suf) record; tray; shallow bowl (com);
...which I guess means "first press". And the cover marked that way is this:

"通常盤" also seems to mean "regular press", which makes sense, since CD+DVD has the same cover for both.

EDIT: BTW, isn't this pic adorable?

[Beauty4123]

OMG cutest picture ever.

[AyUta]

AW! She looks CUTE! I just adore her pretty little face

[sora-kara]

Thats the cover i got!
its super cute!

i was just confused because its really close to the +dvd cover, and every place said something different.
oh but the sticker on the front says "初回盤 jacket", so i guess i did the the first press.
yay!

its a great single too.

Tears in the Sky Preview
http://www.konami.jp/gs/game/genso/t...#/download/34/

It's at the end of the trailer. ^_^

[apple-pi]

^Thank you! I'm not feeling the preview much right now. But it might grow on me, like Yuumachikaze did... well, I haven't even heard the full song lol.
(and I think that game looks so cool xD)

[Mirai Noah]

I like the verses more than the chorus, but my computer keep freezing, so I didn't get to hear the song in a very steady stream.

[AyUta]

Thanks for the trailer! I think it sounded very nice for a first preview It seemed to fit the game perfectly. (Also the game looks fun It reminds me of Legend of Dragoon, which is a good thing! )

I you Samii~!

Her voice is just so relaxed and light, that it's extremely pretty and gorgeous.

[~Amy~]

Yeah, the game does look pretty cool... o.o
Can't really hear the song that much but so far it sounds like it'll be good. ^_^

[drewbilation]

for those of you who have heard the preview, is the song upbeat? or at least atypical of her style lately?

[bondingo]

It's pretty typical Satomi in my opinion. Calming and pleasant, but nothing mind-blowing.

[AyUta]

Yeah, calm and mid-tempo if I remember correctly. It sounds like a nice song though, something you'll most likely grow to love after a few listens.

[sora-kara]

mmm im liking the preview.

the song has a good groove to it, and it feels like the production/arrangement has some more depth to it than her latest singles.
i thought i felt a bit of that folk pop to it....
i hope so!

i have to go and pre-order this single...
