The Pop Star, Ayumi Hamasaki, will have her 49th New Single "crossroad" released on 22th September which include the cover song from TM NETWORK, "SEVEN DAYS WAR" which was released on July 1988. Ayumi Hamasaki had ever covered songs from Yumi Matsutoya, "Sotsugyou Shashin" and TRF, "teens". It is the first time to cover a male artist's song.

The new single "crossroad" is arranged and composed by a music producer Tetsuya Komuro which will be continued with the 50th single "L" released on 29th, Ayu requested, "Please help" to Tetsuya Komuro its composition in April, Komuro said, "This represents the new work for me and also Hamasaki". The coupling song for this single is going to be Komuro's TM NETWORK's masterpiece, "SEVEN DAYS WAR" and it will also include the single that released on July, "blossom" remix version, total 5 songs.

This single will be released in two formats, CD+DVD and CD Only. The DVD will include "crossroad", "blossom" and making off shots videos. The CD Only version will include "MOON" orchestra version.

i wonder why so many people said that the song is good...
i already download the TM NETWORK version, and it's so blah for me...i don't like it at all...
i hope ayu will re-arrange it 100% so the new version will be very ayu-ish

Yeah I don't get it. It's soo boring. I mean, it's like 100x more boring than the ayu songs people here consider boring too lol.. so I expected people to hate it.
I hope it'll get re-arranged too but I kind of am doubting it. Maybe ayu's voice/emotion put into it can save it too. ~trying to keep positive here~ lol

Thanks for the update! I never thought of it that way, but it's true-- she almost never does covers.

this is only her 3rd? cover ever released. I'd say that's not a lot for someone who has been in the business for almost 12 years. I think that its great that she's actually covering a male song, too.
Thanks for the news.

Interesting update

I found the song really nice.
I thought that it would be a trance-rock ballad kind of song but its a rock ballad.


Check it out here to listen the original version

I think this will be absolutely amazing. I've just got a good feeling about this. The original is so-so, but I think Ayu will take it to a new level.

^ Yeah I agree. To me it makes sense that she'll be covering another Komuro song since he wrote crossroad. I'm really looking forward to this single.
