man hd makes a really big difference man......woohooo! thanks for sharing guys! this is by far my favorite PV by the girls. haha

great song!!!
I like the PV, they really mature-ish when not in uniform

──シングル「LOVE SURVIVE」はBPM（※テンポを表す単位）190で、SCANDAL史上最速のナンバーだそうですね。
I heard that at 190 BPM (the unit for tempo), Love Survive is SCANDAL's fastest number ever.

TOMOMI：全員で練習した時、速すぎて落ち込みました（笑）。
TOMOMI: It was so fast that it made everyone depressed during practice (laugh).

heh they seem really concerned that the song will be too fast. I didn't even notice the speed that much really; I thought it was a great song right off the bat.

190 bpm?! I know it's fast but i didn't realize it to be that fast. Well, way too fast for me at least.

Nice job, SCANDAL~~

6 days and then it's out! I can't wait~

I didn't quite believe this at first so I went and tracked the song with a metronome. Yes, it's 190bpm. That's FAST. Definitely the fastest SCANDAL song ever. And I love it!

A new single going release, i can't wait it!!! .clap.

yeah i would like to know that too

I think it's a company keeping track of CD sales in Japan.
That's as far as my knowledge goes.

its to track the number of cd sales durin the week and the more sales you have the higher your rankin.

i think thats how it goes. thats usually how i determine if an aritst ranks high or not. but thats jus me i could be wrong. haha

Had SCANDAL been promoting this single on TV shows? where can I watch it? both the perfs and the talk part.
If it's not for streaming, where can I download?

im pretty sure their goin on happy music either this past week or next week, though im pretty sure its next week friday cuz Rina said that they were happy to film and that they were really like a family wit the happy music film people. and then i believe that same week on sunday their performing on music japan. and next friday they are on nico nico live again to give the previews of the BABY ACTION album and the songs.......

thats their schedule i believe for next week

after watch the PV and download one...its very amazing. MAMI look like Avril lavigne in that PV..don't agree ? check it

and now waiting for the next album ...

@BigDnm01

they choose a bad week >___>''
SKE48 is quite impossible to beat, namie amuro sell always a lot (even if this single isn't so great but it have promotions behind it,big promotion) idoling are the same of ske48 (stupid idols XD),FTIsland and flumpool I think have a bigger fandom so it's right to quest that scandal will be #6. hope ninki for this time say the true >__<

Awesome song, awesome lyrics.
Am addicted to the MV obviously. RINA looks too good in there

Hey guys, do we have a radio rip/video/whatever of Hikare here?

I got interested to it after I read.. (RINA is talking about Hikare..)

TanyaLilac wrote:RINA: At the beginning, MAMI thought of a phrase and came to me with her guitar. After that, everyone got together and we worked on it together. So the hook, B Melody and A melody were composed in that order. I thought of the arrangements for each of these parts and then while we were recording, we would think of other things to add to it. It was the first time we'd done a song like that, and for me it was something I'd always wanted to do, so when my wish was granted, I was really happy. The lyrics also have a kind of band-man feel to them. Feelings like how I like the band and want to keep going – these are the kinds of things the song captures.

I'm really happy for the girls!

My thoughts on the PV (a little late, but...):

Pretty much what I expected: bold, dynamic and colourful. I didn't really like the dancers but it did support the dance vibe of the song. The moves weren't so good, specially in the main riff as I thought they were too static. SCANDAL's best moves were when they weren't dancing, just rocking out. Speaking of which, there were some great rock-out moves from Mami and Haruna, e.g. in the instrumental bit and Haruna does the awesome punch...

The school setting I don't think suited it as much but it did remind me that they haven't had a PV set outside since Shoujo S...I'd be interested to see one with a slightly higher budget. Outfits were perfect, leather jackets, headbands, fingerless gloves...they looked great, except in the white-face shots which unfortunately reminded me of Voldemort...

Rina also didn't get enough screentime, which is a shame cos she looked really nice here...But her headbanging was good and it prompted me to think that a little more sweat (from rocking out, I mean, or any water) would have made it all the more energetic.

Overall, I really liked it, there were some great camera shots like focussing between Haruna and Tomomi and the vibe was very appropriate.

actually the girls didnt choose it its more of their mangament that decides when to release the singles. personally yes you do not want to pick a week wit any akb girls or ske or the upcomin sister nmb because of their high popularity. and on top of that their are some really good artists that are releasing that week. i think the girls are doing a very wonderful job and 6 is a really good postion consindering all the others. so SCANDAL is awesome and can do it. oh yeh

Actually, releasing singles on the week with other popular artists/groups/bands/idols also have it's good points. it's gives you exposure, cuz when someone who would buy that particular single/album, they'll most likely check out the other new releases on the same week. I'm talking about a normal fan, the general public, not a obsessive fan who buys only to increase their idols/artists sales numbers. I believe its because they will release on a certain date, when people get their monthly check, and when they use it to buy something, they have the tendency to shop around and check for other new releases, that's what I've been told.
