This album has done nothing but grow on me. :333333 Like a fine wine. It gets better with age. x3 (what am I saying??! I shouldn't be talking about a brand-new album like that!!)

The production is really quite slick, complicated and sophisticated.

I still love Move Your Body... the break in the middle isn't totally love but it works in its own way... Do My Best has only gotten better...
and Flashback is really kind of... as Johnny's songs go, I think it's kind of a masterpiece. Way more complicated than I'd expect, yet pulled-together to maintain its 'chill' vibe. It has such a lovely, mature feel. <3 <3 <3 (and actually, I'd say out of all their songs, I think it's most appropriate that they chose this one to have female backup dancers at the lives - because this song is SEXY.) And the break - with the acoustic bass and the jazz rythms and the sax. Lovvvvveeee. This song really holds up to repeats, imo.
And even the less impressive, 'glitzy' album songs are good songs. IE, Koe, Shiriusu.

(har har, do I even need to mention the singles? We all love Step and Go and Happiness already.)

Possibly the only one I'm not crazy about is Your Song... but it's getting better too. I've started to quite enjoy it.


I know a lot of fans, myself included, had some doubts about this album the first time we heard it but after further reflection I think it's gold. It will last. You'll still be listening to Do My Best in two years. Or more. Just for example. It's a well-matured, well-developed, sophisticated album. love love love~

oh, and if I even need to say~ the solos are love. Every so often I skip Naked and Hello Goodbye (sorry, Matsujun, it's a well-written song and your voice has improved but it's still trying on my ears at times, if I'm not in the mood, and Aiba, you are love, but Hello Goodbye isn't quite as catchy as Friendship and it's a bit predictable/cliche to me) but Hip Hop Boogie, Take Me Faraway, and Gimmick Game are beyond A+++++. Such excellent solos. Truly well done. ;D (not that the other two are bad... they're still really good.)

totally agree with sourringo

Flashback is a masterpiece
I think that song could have been a million hit single

Step and Go totally grow over the repeats

after all its.. Arashi , their albums are the greatest release for the die-hard followers like me

I'm a proudly Arashi male-fan

the solos are the best for me
specially "Hip-Hop Boogie" , Sho have potential for a critical aclaim SOLO ALBUM, I think the boys are too busy for solo albums now

Dream A Live reached #1 in Oricon Monthly Charts
and its the second best (in sales) so no doubt!! the album was a success

hoping they release more singles like Flashback or HipHop Boogie, they allways put the new stuff in the albums,

going back to study

I LOVE THE ALBUM it's really good it's soo up beat i just love it. I also love the solo's THERE SOO DIFFERENT THIS YEAR I love nino's solo's it's not cuties this time ^-^ not saying i dont like the cutie but it's different ^_^ and MASTUJUN did a wonderful song and ohno's solo just enhances his voice even more. AND I LOVE SHO'S SOLO is soo good like it kinda reminds me of those 80's rapping song but it's soo good. totally represents him

when i get money im planning
to get both

I can say only that it's good. It's Arashi after all! How could it be bad?
I love Ohno's solo! I always love his solos ^^ And Aiba's was not bad at all, but others didn't affect me so much... Especially Sho. I was expecting more from him :P

My favorite songs are "Move your body" and "Hello Goodbye"!!
I heard them many times

I was lucky enough to get the Limited Edition at Pacific Mall =D. There was the original edition too but I was just borrowing money from my Mom. I'm penniless D=

This album is not my favorite but it sure is great! I liked the solos more then any other previous album, specially Sho´s. Aiba and Ohno solos are also my favorites!
For the albums song I like Move Your Body the best since I first heard it. I like that kind of beat and melody. Im expecting a great coreography for it!
Sirius is also a very good song, loved it!

But nothing beats Hip Hop Boogie, Hello Goodbye and Take me Faraway. Those ones rock!!! Great work on the solos!

I'll have to say no. I downloaded it and gave the whole thing a listen, but I just couldn't warm up to it like that *snap* as I have with other albums. I guess I wasn't feelin' it. I really like Ohno and Nino's solos though!

i have a limited edition copy. i really like the color scheme in the album cover.

On tuesday all Arashi 2008 stuff... incl DAL is released..
So I'll finally get my RE version, since i already have the LE..
but I might get the LE too since I want the korean lyrics!

also..when buying one of the products I'll get some Arashi stuff for free

I like Move your body song and also want to see its PV too.

Che che che che check!! Da da da da dance!!
