Composers/arrangers of You were... / BALLAD!

[love in music]

so i'm expecting You were... to be a wintery ballad, like Days
and BALLAD to be just a gorgeous emotional ballad. we'll see how it goes!
i don't get too excited when i read about composers etc without hearing the songs, because no matter how good they are they can always have their slip ups

[Crystal_Ageha]

Aaa, I'm getting more and more excited... I'm hoping BALLAD will be like forgiveness.

[njanjayrp]

HAL + Kazuhiro, DAI + Nakano, the songs simply can't be bad ^^

[C+R+E+AYUMI]

HAL & DAI ...success guarantee

[freedreamer]

O YES! Kazu is a genius! Kazu has made really dark ballads before so I wonder how this will go. Then again, he has made brillian BoA ballads in the past. I think HAL is just gonna make the song sound VERY-AYU-ISH but then again HAL has surprised me before with t2m so unless HAL applies that same formula to ballads then i think we cculd expect something different hopefully.

D.A.I's ballads are OMGGGGGGGG + Yuta Nakano its gonna be AMAZING for sure.

(i wonder what happened to Tetsuya hahaha...since...m-u? Secret? Ayu has been using him lesser and lesser...he makes super sad ballads...without bridges though)

[inspire_rmx]

i love it when ayu works with DAI. can't wait for the single *screams*

[ayumi.hamasaki]

I love to see those composers/arrangers do the single

I can't wait to hear the songs

[Midori-chan]

Oh, so great! I really can't wait to hear the new songs!! And D･A･I did "BALLAD"?! Ah, I'm really happy now!!! *____________*

[rakeru]

this is second to only CREA herself ^-^

I LOVE all his songs, but Curtain call would be definitely my least favorite song from him. I hope "You were..." isn't Curtain call ~episode II~. no thanks.

And BALLAD will definitely be Awesome.

[Aozora]

These certainly sound like amazing combinations . Hopefully the songs will turn out great. Does anyone know who arranged Curtain call? I'm not worried about the composer because I think it had the potential to be a great song... I just didn't care for the arrangement.

^ Yuta Nakano

He just did GREEN. That's only like last year. lol.

[adantatu2]

Maybe You Were is a kawaii pop song (like glitter) and BALLAD is like Days

[gallowsCalibrator]

Ooooh I'm even more excited now ^.^ I can't wait to hear these songs!!! >.<

i totally agree with you

[AyUta]

cool! DAI thanks for the info . omg, i do hope CREA's back

[adantatu2]

My favorites ballads are HEAVEN, fated, SEASONS, Days, Dearest, JEWEL & momentum but i don't like curtain call too.
Can you imagine a Dearest -episode II-?
I REALLY LOVE DEAREST
