what annoys me is that every single song title is in english and she didn't speak a single word of english in them till her 4th album "Maria" wow, yeah. even her japanese titled songs are written in romaji, hana, hanabi, kanariya (it either means canary or gonorrhea, still trying to figure it out)

I don't know any japanese artists that give every single song an english title and not sing a single english word in them. (sotsugyo doesn't count cause it's a cover song). I dont think it would kill her to try it out once in a while.

I really hope she'll smile on at least one of the covers.. She looks gorgeous when she smiles!
The last smiles we had was Secret CD-only and Glitter/Fated CD+DVD covers!

I'm hoping for something that looks like the Days/GREEN covers.. But instead of flowers I want there to be snow, and I want it to be darker.. and I want her to smile xD

*sigh* not gonna happen

the covers will be exactly the same as the sunrise/sunset covers, but there will be photoshopped snow in the background instead of water/flowers and they will photoshop on a skimpy santa outfit and hat

the rule covers were horrible imo. bad color scheme, and she's holding her leg up...weird. O_O The only thing that makes it not a complete train wreck is that the cover was apparently going for that 80's theme which it did have.

and the green covers were hideous too. didn't she just have the mirrorcle world single where the background was all white and it had some simple butterflies, and we do it again with roses? and why is the cover for green, pink anyways? I also still hate the next level covers. its the rule covers but to the extreme.

That was the theme for the singles that came out on her 10th anniversary... Same format and style, both came out in that special double-sized case thing, had 10th anniversary recordings, multiple versions.

I actually wouldn't mind if Yw.../B came out like that too (I know its not going to happen of course but still). They were so nice... they looked like they were worth the money.

i only liked one of the rule/sparkle covers (the one where you hardly see her face) the cd+dvd one is disgusting imo. and i only disliked one of the NEXT LEVEL covers. i actually liked the s/s covers from the small covers when they came out, but little did i know the horrors of the HQ.
all mirrorcle world and days/green were stunning except for maybe 1 from each shoot where she looked stoned. i hope if kazu is still shooting again this time, the covers are pretty like those ones

I liked Mirrorcle World and Days/GREEN covers! I also liked the CD+DVD of Rule/Sparkle and I was in love with most of NEXT LEVEL's covers. Sunrise/Sunset are the ONLY covers I don't like lately. So as long as this single's covers are not like those, I'm good!
