I really liked this song. The 30 sec. preview didn't do it justice.

[QUOTE=Demure_Dusk]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. QUOTE]


I completely agree. The different things going on musically in this song give it such good PV potential. I really hope I won't be disappointed.

i have fallen in love with it, too.
there are no words.
it is beautiful.
simply, one of the best.


and it did seem bland from the preview, but nope, it blew me away. incredibly amazing. (:

The chorus is the worst part... I don't like the arrangement of the song at all.
The gospel choir in the song it's just...wrong...

Maybe i'll like this song once i read the lyrics. Ayu shows lots of emotion here... ;O

This song exceeded my expectations since I really didn't like the preview very much. I'm still not completely in love with it though - I think Will is her best ballad this year.

Right that's it! I was thinking about someone from the western but can't remember who
but still this isn't the best ballad of the year, Will is still the best ballad of the year and next will be this one...Pride
I like the piano and the jazzy-ness feel to it

From someone who has always liked her ballads more than her upbeat songs, I can honestly say I'm not that impressed with this song - maybe my opinion will change in the next couple of days, but for now it's not doing much for me.

I guess I like B&D more.

Really Bold&Delicious/Pride has dissapointed me. I was waiting for other songs, not so commercial. And both are so short, Ayu always sing very large songs (up to 5 minutes). I'm sad~

At first me too. BUt now I love it sooooooooo much!!! yes! I love the feeling it expresses. It is such a touching song that I nearly cried...
JUST PUT YOUR HEART INTO IT. Feel it little by little and it will be a GREAT song. Trust me.

I think it's pretty good. I think it still seems like I've heard the song 10 times by 10 other artists. But, it's better than I thought it'd be.

nice song... again, something different from Ayu this year... it's a ballad, yet it's not in the same league as Heaven... for me, if i rank this year's songs, this would be at the same position as (or a bit lower than) alterna which is my third favorite song next to is this love and Will... for some reason, I prefer the b-sides/2nd track songs of the singles :-p

Here's my ranking for the songs she releasing for her album

Pride - A+
Heaven - A
Will - A+
Fairyland - A+
Alterna - A
Step You- B
Is This LOVE? - A+
Bold & Delicious - B

I personally love Pride, one of her best singles so far this year and it's a great ballad.

it's nice. the whole single is not as good as STEPyou/is this LOVE?, but it's not tragedy...

i hope for a really original PV.

Nothing beats CAROLS...

But I guess I like this song most out of her singles...ballad-song wise...
I like STEP You Most though.

I wasn't expecting much out of this so the full version was surprising, whereas the full version of B&D was a bit of a let-down. I'm liking this
