You were ... is the 1st A-side taken from ayumi hamasaki's 47th single You were ... / BALLAD .
Her brand new single was supposed to be released on 16th Dec but it got pushed back to 29th Dec instead .
You were ... / BALLAD comes in 4 months + since the release of her previous single Sunrise / Sunset ~LOVE is ALL~ . Both the A-sides are ballads to decorate the wintertime .
The 1st A-side has a tie-up with music.jp and will be used as the theme song for the Japanese version of the Disney movie Tinkaberu to Tsuki no Ishi (Tinkerbell and The Lost Treasure) .
ayumi was chosen as she "is as popular as Tinkerbell with Japanese women , and has the power to make those around her feel good ,” says one industry insider . ayumi said : "I'm just honoured to be part of something that is loved by people all over the world ."
Tinkaberu to Tsuki no Ishi opens in Japanese cinemas on Dec 23rd .
I probably going to get shoot for saying this but I really like You were ... & prefer the song as compared to last year's winter ballad of ayumi which was Days .
You were ... is very pretty & you can hear a lot of winter influences going on & it sounds a bit like part of Me to a certain extent .
I just like how the song gradually & slowly builds up to a climax & I do admit it's 1 of her most grabbing songs that she has released in recent times & the lyrics are real touching too .
The 2nd A-side BALLAD will be reviewed in due time & so's the B-side RED LINE ~for TA~ .
