She just posted this on twitter, saying "Yeah, the single has been changed. About the reason, after a while I think you will find that you'll be able to think 'Oh! So that's why!!', so please look forward to it."

I think she has something planned for the blossom pv, or something else planned in general! Really looking forward to it.

From Misa-chan:
NEW SINGLE 「MOON / blossom」 set for release 14 July!!

Aiming for the 50th single, the first in a series of 3 consecutive works!
This 48th single is a double A-side featuring the widely-acclaimed famous songs 「MOON」 and 「blossom」!!
Both tracks are the current hot topics and much-welcomed comeback works of the composer for debut song 「poker face」 and famous work 「A Song for ××」, Hoshino Yasuhiko!
「MOON」 has been released as a limited chaku-uta to fanclub members who purchased the album 『Rock'n'Roll Circus』, and the full version has also been sung during live performances. This is one song that everyone has been wanting to be made a single.
「blossom」 is part of the large-scale tie-up promotion with Zespri, with it being the CM song for the 「Gold Kiwi, Green Kiwi」 CM. A number with a catchy tune, characteristic of Mr.Hoshino, this song's melody remains with the listener and brings on a feeling of breeziness associated with the coming season.

Popular songs from album 『Rock'n'Roll Circus』, such as 「Microphone」, 「Don't look back」, 「Last Links」 and 「meaning of Love」 are coupled with the new single as remix versions. Along with a DVD containing the video and making clips of 「MOON」 and 「blossom」, 3 versions of the single are to be released!

★Special first-press item: Serial Number Access Card
◎ Free chaku-uta download of new song in the next series (49th single)
◎ For those who have purchased all 3 48th・49th・50th singles, never-before-seen photos sent to the mobile phone + PC wallpaper

50th シングルに向けて、3作連続リリース第1弾!
48thシングルは、すでに名曲との呼び声高い「MOON」「blossom」の超強力両A面!!
デビュー曲「poker face」、名曲「A Song for ××」などを手がけた作曲家・星野靖彦氏を10年ぶりに迎えた超話題作!
「MOON」は、アルバム『Rock'n'Roll Circus』を購入したファンクラブ会員にのみ限定着うた配信され、ライヴでフルコーラスが披露されるや いなや、シングル化の要望が殺到した超話題曲。「blossom」は「ゼスプリ ゴールドキウイ・グリーンキウイCMソング」という超大型タイアップ楽曲で、星野氏によるキャッチーなメロ ディが耳に残るこれからの季節にピッタリの爽やかナンバー。
カップリングには、アルバム『Rock'n'Roll Circus』収録の人気曲「Microphone」「Don't look back」「Last Links」「meaning of Love」のリミックス・ヴァージョンを、DVDには「MOON」「blossom」のビデオ・クリップとメイキング・クリップを収録し、全3形態でリリース!

Sadly, it seems like people are split 50/50 between absolutely hating the covers and loving them a lot.

I don't know when the community got so heated over photos, but it seems to have happened some time during the Shimomura era, because I remember people not being so... negative even if the covers weren't that great, haha.

^ You are totally right. Well, too bad for the ones who don't like these covers. They'll become her new cover without doubt. Live with it.
And I can live with it. Have I already said that I think the covers are awesome? (:

covers are covers. it does seem like 50/50 though. sometimes i just look into the peoples sigs who dont like the cover or see what other covers they like around the forum and it usually all makes sense how weird their taste is compared to mine . . i do too adore these covers

now i really just cant wait until the songs are released. that is what i care about truly truly.

ohh, I like blossom / moon's version! It's totally the best, but the background is a bit weird and plain. I would totally buy this version just for the cover.

the CD only looks pretty gross. Ayu is on opium again, I see. she looks like kind of like Thelma Aoyama.

I can't wait to see the the booklets, obi etc. I think with those colors, the overall design is going to be gorgeous (and so much better than S/S.. where the best part about the design was the faded water inside). I reli hope there are more pics inside and they include the pic in my icon in there and some of the other gorgeous pics we saw in the offshot~

Beautiful, except for the CD+DVD. I thought it was pretty at first but after taking a couple more looks at it, her mouth irritates me . Now I'm looking forward to the PVs!

The blossom/MOON one looks... Okay. The MOON/blossom CD version is just awful, and the CD+DVD is... Very meh. Not horrible, but extremely bland. The songs seems good though, so it doesn't really matter I guess... =)

The other 2 covers are definetly better *-*

And I'm happy that the text wasn't on her in the blossom/MOON cover, in the others I don't like that they didn't made text less noticeble (it would have been great to put it in a corner like A BALLADS)

I'm not really sure since I haven't been a TA member for that long so I thought I'd ask you.. shouldn't there be a new TA layout by now with the covers too and a CM or something?
