This was announced on the VISION FACTORY site last week (
http://www.visionfactory.jp/news/news_archives/0911121000_winds.html); that a new song, the theme for the 3rd asia children's film festival would be released on Ryohei's birthday :D This mid-tempo song is written and composed by sugi ryoutaro (俳優の杉良太郎)~ Download the full version from the itunes store; I just checked and it's on Japan's itunes store for 200 yen.
( + article from y!japan about the song )( + lyrics i found online? not sure if they're right~ )Give it a listen (not the full version, just right before the bridge, i assume?) and what do you think? Personally, I am a sucker for their mid-tempos and ballads, so I love this. The harmony is so pretty. *___* And I find it funny that the song is called "Message" because they already have メッセジー from the Journey album, LOL. I see confusion coming.



Filming for the December 5th MUSIC FAIR episode just finished (11/17; seen ryohei's blog about it :D?) and apparently w-inds. are going to be in
four songs on the show! \8D/
1 new single, "NEW WORLD"
2 JUJU feat. w-inds.: sunao ni naretara
(THIS SONG IS SO GOOD SQUEE)3+4 group song: christmas eve + PIECES OF A DREAM


Ryohei and two of the other performers on the show were also treated to a birthday cake and presents (:
