^ I think Heavenly Forest was just the English title, because they still call it that in English at retail stores, the site and the packaging ... I could be wrong though

Back to alan though, you can hear the preview of the new song in the bg

I think there was an article about this interview in a Chinese newspaper (I saw the image in a Chinese community) if I find it again, I'll post it. I didn't think much of it at the time because I thought it was old news.

oh, I see Smile

anyway, regarding alan, whoever mentioned that it would be a tie-in makes a good point. only recently has alan started to sell really well, with "Kuon no Kawa", but 37k sales aren't anything amazing (maybe it is for alan) especially not when compared to avex's bigger names (but it is interesting how "Kuon no Kawa" outsold "Voice of EARTH") it seems though, that they're really working hard to promote alan lately (ie, Crayon Shin-chan film tie-in), which is good for her. this tie-in could be just what she needs. I'm not hoping for anything superdrastic, but I do hope that "BALLAD" will be an even bigger improvement.

EDIT: thanks for the preview. I like it so far, but it's so typically alan Tongue

The new song sounds pretty Smile It reminds me of Megumi no Ame though. It might just be the twinkly sounds xD I'm a little confused with all this single business though, from Natsu no Umi to BALLAD, I wonder what happened and why...

I think movie producers really want alan to sing for their movies 'cause her voice is so epic Smile especially historic dramas like RED CLIFF and BALLAD.

The new song sounds pretty good, but I wait for a longer and clearer preview. I wonder what the song is about, cause she sings something like "Chiisana Inori" which means "Small/Little prayer" Boogie !

the official trailer (the movie trailer ...) for BALLAD is out
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=punnkejOftg

the preview of the song is the same section used before but it's clearer sound (at least I feel that I can hear it clear)

I can't wait for this song to be out in full not to mention the movie OST ... OMG ... it sounds amazing

the cover are out too
CD+DVD


CD only


not the greatest covers but I can't wait for the song nonetheless

hey, thanks! anyone else think alan looks a LOT like Ayumi Hamasaki in those pictures? also, the covers kinda give me a "Kurage, Nagareboshi" feeling.. Confused

she kind of looks like Stephanie in the covers ... not in a bad way though ...

Anyways a radio rip of BALLAD is out. I left it were I usually do.

I'm in love with this song *__* It's epic and breath-taking. I'm not sure if it's my favorite alan song (yet), but a few more listens and I'll probably start thinking that XD
