I found a download link for the PV on JPopSuki. Well, I'm not very excited - The song itself is nice, but nothing special at all.The PV is her worst video ever, it's unimaginative and boring. I still like the covers and I hope the B-Side "Beauty" is ages better.
Well, I don't care if she sings some more modern songs from time to time, but I don't want her do drop the ancient singer image Sad . I hope they are still some more traditional songs on the album...

I'm behind as usual Sad Sad The songs quite catchy and I love the covers they are very different from her usual but I do agree her covers up to date have a elegance about them. But I do like the change. I haven't seen the PV yet but I've downloaded it And I have yet to order the single nor the album Crying I got to get it together lol Wink Nod

Yay! There's an alan thread here!

I actually really like Swear and its PV. Smile

For the covers I really love CD only, her pose reminds me of Ayu's LOVEppears pose somewhat in one of the off shots. But she looks super pretty. I hope that there's more happier songs on this album, I'd hate for alan to turn into purely a ballad singer... I read on AHS that alan has wrote about 60% of this album. Smile

Thanks for the covers. I can't decide which one I like but I do like the colors of the background and the overall long of the covers. They are nothing standout, but they could be much worse.

I found a track list. I'll just post the one with the DVD track list too ...
Definitely a lot shorter than her last album.

"One"? Something tells me that we have a remix of "Hitotsu" on our hands Tongue

I love the covers, by the way! So pretty! Love

I really do hope that she's not going to sing an Engrish version of hitotsu! But probably. I wanna hear the remix of Namida!
Also I wonder why they've taken Nada Sou Sou off the tracklist...hidden track?

yea I was wondering why too. If I recall right, Nada Sou Sou is suppose to be a bonus track. But I wonder if that means it's just a first press bonus ...

track five is suppose to be a remix of Namida ... I wonder what a Namida in Jazz will sounds like O.o

Looks like she's saving her epic songs for last though ... except maybe My Life ... but My Life is suppose to be a for a PSP game so ... it could be pretty epic.

hmm well here's the promotional clip for the PSP game GOD EATER (which is the tie-in with "My Life") .. I'm not sure if that is alan's wailing in the bg at the end ... it doesn't quite sound like her
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WN8J1kNXVfI. But the over all music is pretty dramatic so there's still a chance that "My Life" is more epic than mainstream.

I'm hoping my life is a dark song, that would be awesome! Giggle

I really wanna hear Butterflies. I bet it's either happy or serene sounding.

I'm excited for Butterflies too! I'm hope it's super experimental. I really like the covers, I think she looks very elegant, and it's not as odd as VoE was.

alan looks really pretty in those covers, but, when does she not look pretty? I'm digging those bangs.

Around a week until the release of Swear. I've already heard it and seen the video, but I'm curious as to what 'Beauty', the B-side, is gonna sound like. Most likely a ballad or slow-tempo song, though I'd be really glad if it turned out to be something a little more upbeat. Don't get me wrong, I love those slow epic songs, but she's been spamming ballads since her debut.

Question though. Why haven't there been any previews or anything for Beauty? Usually, they put a little preview of the tracks from a single or album on the official site or something, right?

Well, I think it's because Beauty is a B-side, not an A-side...they normally don't put previews of b-sides on the site.

I love the tracklist, the songtitles sound very mysterious and cool, especially "Reflection ~Overture~", "Lost Child", "Butterflies" and "my life". I can't wait Love Boogie . And if anyone wants the translation of the new japanese titles, here you go:

4. 见つめていたい / I want to look
5. 涙(Smooth Jam Mix) / Tears
9. 白い翼 / White Wings

I've never noticed before...what odd kanji, I've never seen that before. Do you have any information on it?

I'm looking forward to my life, Butterflies and Shiroi Tsubasa. ^_^
