Why would he?

Pretty random, but: maybe that's DAI's real name? LOL. No.

That's a pretty cool name, didn't know that.

But what did you mean with him being the new DAI? Is he as skilled, or does he make as many songs as the current DAI? Or was it just something random you said, like always ?

I said that because..
Tetsuya has made quite a few of the 'Ayu-hits' lately..
But that's like, along with other composers too D:

I love the song, but I agree that it kinda lacks a climax
and the lyrics are so beautiful too ^.^

This is like the first time in a very long time that most people are happy with a song immediately.

Everyone also agrees on the same things about it, lacking climax and so on.

I wonder how the Japanese audience will receive it.

yeah, i wonder that too. I love the song, but her voice is too...shrilly. I know it's an acapella (is that the term?) but I still don't like that fact.

You mean live? Acappella is with voice only and it does not apply to any JEWWEL version I heard..?

._.

This was made a while ago.
Ayu sang it on Music Station and that performance was around 3:55.. and then a 4:30 something version was leaked afterwards, with very clear sound.

I guess..

In like 14 years. Maybe.
And by the time Ayu starts selling that low.. misono'd probably have quit the music industry.

I'd like it to have a more complex arrangement like Moments and walking proud. It could've been better. I love it though.

I think that a complex arrangement would've taken away from her voice..

Her voice is definitely what takes centerstage here. <3

Her power ballads are amazing and full of energy! NWTS, HANABI, etc.

JEWEL is more softer. I picture falling sakura blossoms flowing in the wind. It's quite lovely.

JEWEL will not be a single, by what we know it will be an album only track.
