If you can't buy the single from the usual websites, Amazon is selling the single in mp3 and CD format :D
So if you can buy mp3s from Amazon, you can easily get the single^^

Yeah, saw that this morning, and… I don't get it: does Sony think overseas fans aren't worth a good quality video? Deinterlacing artifacts, macroblocks and other compression artifacts, colorbanding, etc. I'd have prefered a good 720p over this crappy 1080p. Even the sound is crappy.
I don't thank you, Sony -_-

Yeah, loaded up a lazy encode. But I think you're expecting a little too much of YouTube. YouTube's 1080p encodes are not well known for great quality.
It's watchable I guess. They actually waited until release to upload the fully version :p

I just typed SCANDAL. If it's not available where you are, it might be region locked.

@Reachie: Actually, I'm just expecting a decent quality. You can upload 1080p@50,000 kbps on Youtube. Sound can be up to 384 kbps. I've alredy downloaded YT vidz like 1080p/~8000kbps with 256 kbps sound.
Here, Sony gives us ~3500/128 kbps not even properly encoded.
Anyway…
@kaitanuva: yeah, geoblocking for copyright madness reasons is stupid.
[/rant off]
About the ranking of the single, I think it's not so bad. Take Oricon: ranking #6 one day before officially going on sale seems decent to me.

Well it made to #5 yesterday : http://www.oricon.co.jp/rank/js/d/2014-04-23/
Let's just hope it stays up there now and doesn't fall down quickly :/

Finally listened to these songs today (I have been actively avoiding it until the single was released). Love Rainy; still not big on Departure. It just sounds generic to me. It's probably one of those songs where it helps if you can natively understand the lyrics and sing along to it. There are a lot of popular songs in Japan that I don't see the appeal in, and native speakers usually tell me it's the lyrics.
But I do love Rainy.

International PerformerI felt like you on Departure at the very beginning but after some plays I like it a lot more and once you know the lyrics it's even better.
But yes you have a point for the lyrics, it must help a lot sometimes. Lately I listened to some "big hits" from the oricon charts from the last years and some songs that topped the charts feel so generic and boring and awful it amazes me but I guess the lyrics must make a huge difference (i'm not talking about the commercial pop idol band songs).
Sorry for another post but it's been some hours since my last one ^^
Good news, Departure is #4 for the 04/24 so it's not going down yet, but up : http://www.oricon.co.jp/rank/js/d/2014-04-24/
So while it's not top 3, I think it's a good news.

Caless StudentI listened this single today. I thought "I wonder if they can make an album better than STANDARD" before . When I listened "Departure" I feel like they'll make an album better than STANDARD. I think they started to find their style and they evolved their music a lot.
