what I thought was that the capitalization was an identifier... for example, someone write DEEP RIVER, instead of Deep River... then that person might be referring to the album and not the song...

well... that was my guess...

and I also agree with wholesome247, he explanation does makes sense...

yes that can be also a point

Quote:

That is a good theory, but FINAL DISTANCE is also capitalized and she say's it the American way, so, I don't think that's the case. I guess it's just a Japanese thing.

i think this is where the theory of barried and macdan will come...the capitalization is used to differentiate the single from the album...example is the album "Distance", while the song is titled "DISTANCE"...very helpful when the situation calls for reading...like when you read about it, if it's all capital, then you will know that it's the single they're writing about...

in the case of FINAL DISTANCE, there is no word "FINAL" sung in the song...it's just the word used to differentiate the RnB song and the ballad...and since the original title is "DISTANCE", they might as well make "FINAL" all capitalized cause it will be a funny titled song if it goes like this "Final DISTANCE"...

there are 2 songs that are bothering my mind now because these songs are arguments to my theory...it's "COLORS" and "traveling"...=P

Oh.. I remember that in one of DEEP RIVER interview. At first she wants to titled SAKURA DOROPPUSU with "Sakura Drop" ("sakura" in a normal case, "drop" written in latin alphabet). But later she changed the title to "SAKURA DOROPPUSU" ("sakura" in all capital and "drops" in katakana). She didn't tell the reason why ~_~
i think it just random things
