I think a new song deserves a new topic! :P


Before anyone starts screaming "Nooo, not a nother ballad!"...well, the targent group is the japanese market this time, so it's fitting, no? ;D

...When the morning begins
I'll be in the next chapter...

A preview of the song will be played on the movie trailer shown on Japanese cinemas starting on the 23rd :)

...we will see...but so far...yea, meh....i think so far we can only hear the chrous so perhaps the verses will be composed of complete awesomeness!?

EDIT: Here's a news clip some more of the song...I think...either way, the parts that we have heard are not distorted by the movie trailer...this time, just a guys voice :)

The chorus (?) at the end sounds like Rosa.

It reminds me of Rosa + some other random VUK songs :) I can't wait to listen to the full version though

Someone twitter Yoshiki to upload the preview (maybe even a slightly longer version) without the other noises in the trailer onto xjapanmusic.com

I'm now back in that mood of replaying the preview over and over again XD.

I can safely say I am super stoked for this.  I like how his approach towards music, ballads included, have grown with him. *_*

And I agree with Kiiroi on that it has some strong VUK influence, but I mean, of course it does. XD  And yeah, it could also be from when Toshi went solo, that's able to be heard as well.  It'd be nice to think Toshi had a hand in at least the vocals for this song.

I hope that Sugizo makes a guitar solo for this song because a slow solo is something he can really do.

Yoshiki said to Barks in September that the album would be released late fall, and if not before the end of the year, he'll commit harikiri.

Looks like Yosher's gonna die :P

I assume the trailer that's going to be shown in Japanese cinemas in a few days is this one?

Just been reading the comments on YouTube. People have spotted that the melody of Toshi's vocals on a section of the song mimic 'The Last Song's guitar solo....They are really similar! I like it!

To me, it has some similar sounds to "I'll Be Your Love".

Either way, I am excited for it.  I could use an epic piece of ballad-ness from our beloved X.

Some news!

Sounds like it could be a new "epic" type ballad. If the solo doesn't involve Pata and Sugizo harmonizing and the song isn't over five minutes in length I will be quite surprised.

The only problem I see with this song is that if they want to put it on the new album, will they have to wait until the movie is released (May 2011). I certainly hope not, but I'm guessing they do...

And those of you who didn't know (like me), the movie (well, a movie length anime) is actually a manga adaption - http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Buddha_%28manga%29

Hope you're right. A long guitarsolo would be nice.

Can't judge the song yet, but Toshi's voice sounds simply fantastic on it. He's singing up to the Eb above tenor high C! The guy's voice is better than ever...
