I like it, a lot. I love the chorus. The section in question sounds to me like they are dipping from the Little Busters well, (a bad thing, [i]how again?[/i]) but it is distinctly different, with great emotion. Not a One Life copy, by a longshot.
It's unspeakably rude to pull this shit. Yes, you are allowed to disagree, but making a sound file to bash an anticipated song that people are anxious to hear is horseshit. It's not an opinion; It's trolling.
CULEN -> BANDWAGON -> BITTER ARGUMENT -> THREAD GETS LOCKED
Go away.

Oh, it's not bad that they are dipping from the well of Little Busters. It's when you're recycling your old riffs because you can't come up with any new ideas.

more agreed to mare
there ARE similarities between teh two songs
but we should have known that already. people who were saying that they heard scarecrow live said that it reminds them of one life.
and also, if this is such a shitty song that is a "carbon copy" does that make one life shitty? no, they are both good songs with some similarities but alot more differences
anyway, i like it
and in case you're still wondering camio
culen = veteran

[quote="sheerheartattack"]Agreed with Mare. It may seem cool to say how crappy a certain band is on their own fansite, but guys, I'll let you in on something: It's not.
On a side note, I'd like to hear far less fappage of other obscure bands like Number Girl. Yes, I've heard them. They're [i]not bad[/i]. I would even say they're [i]good[/i]. But they are not even ten percent as good as you guys make them out to be. They have a mediocre female guitarist. [b]OMG girl![/b] No. That doesn't make them so good you have to spend all your time talking about them and not the pillows on a [i]pillows fansite[/i].
Maybe the two songs sound similar because, [i][b]HOLY FUCK[/b][/i], it's the [i][b]SAME BAND![/b][/i][/quote]
Despite my semi spam posts referencing NG, NG hasn't invaded the pillows section of the forum. Or even the website itself. I don't see what your argument is. All the praise for NG has been left to it's little thread in the Music section and widely expanded to Distortional Addict. No one here, except perhaps Mare, has ever said that NG is several times better than the pillows just because their guitarist has boobs and a vagina.
The point here is that Sawao, being the one in complete creative control of the band, is or has run out of ideas.

anyway, i'm done arguing this whole thing. i'm not gonna start flaming fellow fans because some of us think one thing and others of us disagree.
I'm really glad I preordered this single though.  If this is any hint, I think the new album will be really good.

I think it recalls One Life too much, but I don't find anything particularly horrible about the new song, except for the stupid keyboard orchestration. I'm so sick of bands doing this. I can only hope that this is only for the TV show ending and not the actual single.
It's still perfectly fine to be a fan of a band and criticize them, but as some individuals here clearly show, it can be taken way too far. I don't think PL or My Foot were especially bad, just mediocre in places and overall uneven. Good Dreams, on the other hand, was just awful.
Why is everyone hating on My Foot, anyway? It actually had four or five decent songs, though Kuuchuu Rejiisuta, Mighty Lovers, Rock n' Roll Sinners, and Degeneration in particular really, really brought down the final product.
And if you think Tabuchi is a bad guitarist, then I'm sorry, you're an idiot. Please check into a mental institution immediately.

So it's similair to One life.
Who cares?
Sono Mirai was awfully similair to Last Dinosaur, and I didnt see anyone complaining.
Seriously, if you hate the Pillows, why are you here on a PILLOWS fan board?
For the record, It doesnt make you look cool when you hate the main topic of discussion...
My opinion of the song, I don't love it, but I don't hate it. It'll probably end up growing on me, because thats what it's like with their new stuff.
