Initial comments

Is it really "stylized as 'TO BE'"? I mean, many songs have their titles capitalized on single covers...
- It is infact stylized as it is lol; the titling is referenced on her CD's, DVD releases, digital media, etc.
You use "it" a lot at the beginning of the lead
"Some highlighted the single as one of Hamasaki's best work" --> "Some highlighted the single as one of Hamasaki's best works"
"reaching number four on the" --> "reaching number four on both the"
"entered again on both record charts." --> "re-entered both record charts."
"different colorful clothing." --> "a variety of colorful clothing." What do you think of this?
"To promote the single, it appeared on several remix and greatest hits compilation albums and live concert tours conducted by Hamasaki." --> "To promote the single, it appeared on several remix and greatest hits compilation albums, in addition to various live concert tours conducted by Hamasaki."
"The song was covered by Chinese recording artist An Youqi, who won the Super Girl competition years prior." --> When was it covered? And is this 100% necessary here?
"which incorporated" --> "which heavily incorporated"
"The mini CD format featured a total of three tracks; the origianl recording" --> "The mini CD format featured a total of three tracks: the origianl recording"
Shouldn't its worldwide release in 2008 be mentioned for "release"?
""To Be)"" --> ""To Be""
"replica" --> "replicate"
"one of her highest singles to do so" --> I don't think this is necessary
"It lasted 15 weeks on the chart" --> Add this to the previous sentence for better prose
""Love (Destiny)", "Boys & Girls" and her EP A." --> Maybe add the release years for these?
"Platinum" --> "platinum"
"The boy walks through the stars whilst Hamasaki sings the song, and has another shot of Hamasaki singing the song" --> Too repetitive
"a self-titled DVD" --> Year?
"Super Eurobeat Presents Ayu-ro Mix" --> Year?
"that being" --> "being"
"It has been performed on one live event" --> "It has been performed at one live event"
Check out Reference #44
There are way too many references in the "Release history" section; plus I don't think you have to list out all of these countries, and only one source should suffice anyway
- I understand your point, and it's probably the only time I'll do doubled-up citations, but each citation of the countries are different releases with track lists. Plus, I think it's fine considering that an example such as S&M (song) has such a format (though it's not an excuse to do it in future articles, just ones like this).
  - @Carbrera: My apologizes for the late comment; I would have finished in a day or two, but have been so busy. In saying that, I have finished all the requirements . Thank you for the review. CaliforniaDreamsFan (talk · contribs} 05:16, 20 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]
