Last year I would not allow myself to listen to Days though until the first snowfall. But besides that, the melody is so bittersweet and perfect. Rather simple, but that's what makes it so perfect. MOON's melody to me seems bland/forced.
I agree about Days, but for MOON as for me, it has a melancholic and emotional composition/arrangement that sometimes brings an "emotional storm" feeling and I love it.

I like both

Yeah, I'm more of a sucker for the emotional/interesting ballads, not the sweet ones.. though I do like sweet/simple ballads too. I'm one of the few fans who like Curtain call, Sunset, and Close to you

Why don't people like Close to you? Sooooo beautiful. Sunset is simple her best song at sunset. Curtain Call is well Curtain Call I guess.
My appreciation for ayu ballads has grown. Especially MY STORY ones. MOON is lovely as any other

I also love those three songs! I loooooove winter ballads around winter time; they just really help boost the mood (^^) It's why I love Ayu's songs (or one of the reasons) because each song can be enjoyed in any season, but they seem to stand out and sound even better in their own respective season (^^)

MOON and Days bring totally different emotions into the picture ^^ Days feels bitter sweet & cheery in a way, while MOON simply hurts.

That is why I love it, I hated it at the time it was released because it reminded me of something in my love life going on at that time.

Now that I've gotten over that I love Days a lot. It's not the best song ever or anything but it's sweet and has memories attached to it for me. I like MOON too but I haven't really found a way I can totally relate to it yet. I just need to give it time, but the song is so good as it is.

TOTALLY! I love listening to certain songs in their seasons. It always feels so nice to listen to the right music according to the weather/time of day/year.

I'm actually really surprised by the sales of this single. The digital sales are fairly good as well. I mean, it had no promotion and it's still doing better than a lot of singles by other female artists that have been promoted...Well done Ayu!
