[edit] Overview

"SPEEDRIVE" was the theme song for the movie "Lovely Complex". The lyrics for "SPEEDRIVE", as well as the lyrics for "Ari to Kirigirisu ~10 years later~", were written by misono herself. Also, arrangement was done by Takahiro Izutani.

[edit] Music Video

The PV for "SPEEDRIVE" is roughly based on The Ugly Duckling. In the video, misono is walking around the streets of a city in an ugly duckling costume and then at the end she finally becomes a swan.
A special "Lovely Complex version" PV was aired to to promote both the single and the movie, which included scenes from the movie.
The DVD includes the original (non-Lovely Complex) version of the PV.
