Or maybe she got a small headache from drinking that canned beer last night. .common.

....sorry i just i to...i go now.

Lets not get carried away with the offtopic guys, lets keep it about the new info.

The band seems really proud of the new album and ready to tell the world all about it.

Any chance you could upload just the subtitles somewhere?

The video with subs is quite small to see. Is there a way to view a bigger version?

Here are the songwriting credits, as posted on this lyric site, and translations of the first lines of each new song on YELLOW:

Hm, looks like Dailymotion got rid of the option to go to the video's page by clicking on the embedded video. Here's the video link:

For CLUB SCANDAL mobile subscriber in Japan they now have 30-40 sec preview of the albumn available for listening.

Well I guess Mami is now officially Scandal's main songwriter!

It kinda sucks that Haruna didn't write any of the songs,●︿●,
well at least we got a Tomomi /Mami pair up.

I hope we'll get some word for Part 2 of the video soon.

Who did track #4? Did I miss it?

Mami appears to be showing off her skills from both the left and right parts of her beautiful brain it seems. 

mio_akiyama wrote:Who did track 4? Did I miss it?

Track 4 is "Morning sun"; I didn't include it because we already know that RINA wrote the lyrics and MAMI wrote the music. They also talked about it in the digest video.

I assume "Room No. 7" was composed by the whole band?

I'm glad to see Tomomi is over her writer's block! It's nice to see a Tomomi/Mami collab. Too bad Haruna didn"t have any lyrical contributions.

- I have also observed that Haruna has not contributed lyrics for more than a year.
- Good thing that Tomomi has been writing songs again.
- Mami and Rina are very consistent with their job so far. They're becoming like a Lennon-McCartney or Mutt n' Jeff tandem.

I actually hope Haruna's ok with it all. Being put on singing duties only makes me feel like she's being left out.

I really like this image, .happy. it seems to correspond with the line,  "dance with me under the moon"

So it was inspired by American 80s music,  in particularly the song I mentioned before "Girls Just Wanna Have Fun".  I'm not sure specifically, but it does has some elements of it.

I feel like she's more conscious of her position as a leader. I think she looks pretty satisfied with that, something like "I'm really proud of you girls for composing an whole album by yourselves and I feel honored for being part of it as the main vocalist of us, singing the songs you wrote, these songs I love both listening to it and performing it". Maybe she feels granted, her leadership was very successful in all these 10 years of existence, and it's time to let the girls explode/expand their creativity, improve their skills as musicians and, of course, show the world what they can do. It's time for taking new heights. I mean, this is an incredible era for SCANDAL; her first 100% self-produced (maybe 75%, and the other 25% is for mixing and arranging?), we've been waiting for this since "BEST★SCANDAL". We all know HARUNA can really write amazing songs and I really don't mind if I have to wait one more year to hear a song composed by her, like the masterpiece "Graduation" from "HELLO WORLD" (the reason why I decided to bought this album). I'd love to hear more of what TOMOMI, RINA and MAMI as "the songwriting team of SCANDAL" have to say to us... Oh, did I go too far? haha Sorry...

But what a good time for being a SCANDAL fan! haha Seriously... The girls have done thus far. It's been an amazing journey... #feelingnostalgic

This album sure does feel so special, doesn't it? 10 years. Wow...


Well, I think Haruna is not the type that would write as much as the other - but once she does, it's a good (if not great) one, based on how often she writes in the blog, though. (Some of us just not really into writing, right?)

And when it comes to business, I think she would mostly handle the talk, leaving more time for the other members to write and compose. So yeah, I think she is enjoying herself as the leader and she must be proud how SCANDAL can actually making great songs by themselves for this new album.

 .love.

A week and 3 days till album release .clap.
