mmm, the song is much better than i had expected, but i haven't heard it properly. in fact, the chorus is te worst part imo.

I agree, the chorus (as in the chorus of the song, not the people) is the worst, the rest is AMAZING though!

This song turned out absolutely stunning. The piano and the full chorus really make it powerful. I actually liked the chorus; at least better than the one in Bold & Delicious. It's a very different style for her and I really like it. It has a very "holiday" like feel.

I agree with the holiday feel, that's what I thought too ^^

I LOVE it! I wasn't too impressed with the preview, but the full version is beautiful! The piano, the choir, the lalala's, everything. It definitely exceeded my expectations.

I hope it's not on the album, but I'm 90% sure it will be.

More room for album tracks & adds more value to the single.

The preview managed to confuse me and wonder what the hell she was releasing. But the song itself is quite impressive even if it takes a couple of listens to get used to the song constantly moving into flux.

It's so much better than Bold and Delicious though. It has a traditional ballad feel with a new feel to ballads. I like that. I really do hope she does something really good with the pv and not something like Carols or it shall be a real shame for such a song. Also I hope she promotes it somewhere.. some CM or some live performance. Honestly I think she should give her b-sides more attention.

I love this song, the piano is great + the violin!

I love the chorus, this song is much better when you hear the full version!

Great song.

Wow... Pride sounded ok in the preview. Who'd imagined that the part that was present in the preview was the "worst" part of the song?... I'm astonished!

thank god I'm optimistic.
The full song turned out great.

Does anyone think the verses sounds like Alicia Keys?

mmmh... I like it! but i can't find the magic!!!!!! but it's superior than B.A.D

What i like the most about this song is that it has a Jazzy feeling to it... and it's something like Voyage... and free & and easy but it's really different!!!.

If you asked me.. I wouldn't know if it's an ayu song or some elses' song... (cause of the magic)

I think Will and Heaven are better.... B.A.D and Pride sound different from the rest of the singles... more mainstream i think.

I'm so buying this single! I wish there will be a remix of Pride with more jazz sound!!!!!! PLEASE!

Wow, so why wasn't this the title song? The verses are absolutely gorgeous.. chorus is okay. Not quite the fan of the background singers, I want to hear a version where it's just Ayu singing and no one else. She sure as heck holds out her "iiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii" long enough o.o; lol.. This song is soooo emotional and beats Heaven to the ground. It really grabs you right from the beginning, unlike Heaven. I like how Ayumi is trying to be very expressive with this song... I can't wait to see the translated lyrics. It reminds me of a broadway musical song hehe... not that that's a bad thing.

I'm really curious to find out who the composer is.. Hm, it doesn't sound like a CREA composition.

I just heard the whole version and wow! I like it even more than the 30 sec. preview!

People said their's a gospel chior in the back lmao... that's NOT gospel! Just chorus singers! Almost sounds like a boys choir 0_o
