The upcoming single “Seasons” will be released in two different versions; the regular edition, which includes a special 16-page photo booklet, and a limited edition, which includes a DVD featuring the title track’s PV as well as its making-of video. There will also be four different cover jackets for the limited edition to match the single’s four seasons theme.

It’s a song of love toward everything, including family or friends who you cherish.” The tickets for the fan event will be sold preferentially to people who purchase both the limited and regular editions of his upcoming mini-album “TEST DRIVE featuring JASON DERULO“ (set for release on December 7th).
