[YouTube] The GIFT music video

[ArronHayre]

Wow! Some of you people are so hard to please ... visually probably the best music video she has done in a long time, and the song was nice and what i expected when i heard the teaser clip. ... I dont understand the critisim .. Maybe 'Warning' was dedicated to some people here

The PV looks really pretty - can't wait to watch it when I get my copy of the album.

Ayu looks beautiful but her position on the piano looks awkward. She should have sat with her legs over the edge without resting on her arm? Nicely shot though
Something about the song reminds me of HEAVEN and Ayu's vocals sounds good

Such a gorgeous video. How I missed this part of her hahaha

[Anna.L]

It was better than i expect for a ballad, this i had to say

[My Rainbow]

That voice OMG!!!!

[tokyoxjapanxfan]

It's nice.

I think the editing is really good, everything is crisp. I have my reservations about some things, but really it's a pretty video.

I think the song is pretty too, I'm excited to see it live! Hopefully some fantastic wedding dress flanked by another wedding dress song lol.

A Museum on steroids please!

[AyumiAi]

I really like it! Even if its a some what typical ballad its so beatifully made that I just want to keep listening, and the PV so pretty!!!

After the Colours PV mess this is sooo refreshing and it please my eyes. It's still pretty boring since it lacks some action, but whatever. There's still Virgin Road's PV for that lol.

I feel the same .
The song it's so warm and calm, also really innocent. Maybe people would hate me for this, but I kinda feel the same when I'm listening to JEWEL. Not like The GIFT would ever beat JEWEL as one of my ever favorites Ayu ballads, but I like it even more now after listening to the full version.

I like it a lot, more than HEAVEN, which I didn't like because I found it boring. >.>

[brener]

Really enjoyed the video She looks amazing on that piano =)

I loved the PV. It's relaxing and beautiful.
I am a bit disappointed, though, that the we practically got to hear the whole song in the beginning when we got the preview... I thought there'd be more to it than the preview. I'm probably gonna cut the piano intro/outro when I get the song hahaha

This PV is very Angela Aki's Sakurairo meets Ayu.

[cosmicfirefly]

^^ It does have a slight resemblance to JEWEL, kind of a 'safe' feeling. I wasn't sure what the PV was about, but the remarriage thing makes sense. The bit where she's singing on top of the piano did make me chuckle, it seems so out of place lol I also thought the song would be longer, since the preview practically gave it all away, but any longer than that and it might have dragged.

I'm really love this pv and the song is so emotional and that's is the feeling of the bride in her weeding, the most happiness day.

and yes the song, the melody is like the gift from the sky.

3 screencaps of the PV (from the official fb account )

Spoiler:

[Larisa-chan]

So where is the duet version where JJ's vocals are added in? He's already mouthing the words in the PV, so... XD

I love the beginning and ending piano parts. I wish that there was a piano solo of an extended/elaborated version of the melody in the middle of the song instead of just rehashing the intro part at the end.

Simple and beautiful song. Simple and beautiful PV. Forgettable? Probably. But I love the intro/outro piano part.
