New song: 1love

[Brittany]

OMFG!

I want her hair, and her clothes! I love the rainbows.. *squeals*

I'm digging the title of the song as well

[bluegie]

The cm is so fantastic (well compared to recent ones at least). The song is.. meh. I prefer JEWEL more, so I hope JEWEL will be the main A-side..

I never said I knew it was going to be "1LOVE c/w JEWEL".

I said that it sounds nice.

After putting the CM on repeat for like a thousand times, I'm starting to really like both 1LOVE and JEWEL.

[Jayee19]

Not feeling the song at all. It's a preview so I'm not sweating over it. I'm sure the full version will be decent.

She looks so cute with the hair and outfit. I like this look.

I hated About You when we first heard the clip of it in the CM but I was amazed at the final outcome! I hope that is the case with this song as well... I am not LOVING the song but it sounds good and I also hope that this isn't on the single and will be released when the album comes out.

DAMN IT I can hardly pick up the lyrics at all!! Sigh getting there slowly I suppose...

[miracleofsuzaku]

It sounds like a cross between BOLD & DELICIOUS and STEP you O_O.

I don't think the preview of "1LOVE" sounds like "STEP you" or "B&D"... at all.

[Kikaru]

Now I'm really wondering what the cover would be like. 2005 and 2006 was not a great year for covers.

Dammit me want a Carols cover. *pouts*

Woah awesome!

Cool Clothing. PIECE OF **** SONG

[HiruNoKaze]

Damn it i can't hear anything!!! Well this is the best I can do so far...a good Japanese vocabulary boosts your listening power helluva lot. Too bad mine sucks.

itsu kara te ga kega
1 2 kara habidekuchan no ga aru shi wa shou----(bun?) ne
shashuma wa togatta
kotoba de k-

"itsu kara te ga kega"
real iffy on this one. at least it makes some sense: "since when has my hand been injured" LOL

"1 2"
I think...

"habidekuchan"
I was thinking it might be something conjugated similarly to iku -> ikanakucha.
No, that doesn't work... Might be haidekuchan. In that case, base verb would be hagu -> haide -> haide iku -> haideku? GAH. How's that cha/chan fit in...

"shoubun"
nature/disposition

"shashuma"
Doesn't seem to be a word. I bet I got this one wrong...

"togatta"
past tense of togaru, to be tapered

"kotoba"
words

dude this sucks.

That's like the WORST romanisation ever xD but I don't blame ya. I can't even get to this far, that's why I'm not trying. It's just SO impossible to hear anything from this preview

Hey, I said it sucks...I was nearly spot on with JEWEL so I'm not THAT bad, am I? lol I kinda just gave up...that's why I posted what I had, hoping it would help somebody out there.

I plugged in my headphones and everything, stretching out both my hearing and my mental capacities to try and figure something out.
1. I need to be at a much higher level with my Japanese in order to pick up lyrics; one needs to harness the power of context because listening ability alone isn't nearly enough. In order to use context, you need to master both grammar and vocab...blah.
2. Audio is really muddled isn't it...the announcer wasn't too bad though, I was able to tune him out of my brain, and he didn't seem to get in the way of the lyrics so much. Watch me laugh my ass off if the shou--- thing turns out to be shouben (piss).

Was the romanization bad technique-wise, or just cause a lot of it consists of imaginary words and nonsensical grammar? Or, worse, are you being sarcastic? <receives award for worst romanization of all time>

[..:DisarO:..]

She looks cute and the song sounds nice. Thanks

[Aisha_Angel]

OMG, the preview sounds so upbeat. Lol, I'm really liking it so far.

[Calico]

Woo! It's certainly very catchy. And I love the look! And I like how the Panasonic site is very orange!

As for the song...it's stuck in my head, and I only listened to it once. Go me!

[truehappiness]

Hm..

I'd imagine if people said these sorts of things about 1LOVE, they might've also said the same for STEP you. ~


He probably is being sarcastic. He IS like that.. :p lol

Oh, and if you noticed, after a while, you can hear Ayu not saying itsukara but saying itsuda-tte~ in the beginning..


edit: hm..

It seems that back then not as many people posted LOL~ imho, AHS is definitely more critical than it was a year / two years ago :p I'm happy that there's new music coming out <3 I feel so bad for the DAI forums o_o

Hmmm I still think it's itsu kara. I think it's more likely to occur than itsu datte. I Swear I hear a hint of the r sound though. I THINK that if it were datte, the second "a" sound would be much clearer...but that's just my instinct. This is an example of something that requires context to resolve...
