Yeah, that's actually the only one I haven't tried with headphones.
It's nice to let me short hair down (How...?) and enjoy all the songs, especially 'B&D'. I think the PV is what made me hate it, but without the PV I love it!!

My evil twin sister hates me for liking it, but I told her we all have different music taste, and what's wrong with having fun every once and a while (She listens to emo, indie, and pretty much anything that is the opposite of fun)? She hates me for loving 'Bold & Delicious' and the album as a whole. But so what, we're all allowed to like stuff and dislike stuff, it's a matter of taste.

^Yep don't care for what your sister thinks, you have your own tastes and that's what matters. I don't like a lot of the music my brother likes and he also hates a lot of the music I listen to. I guess that helps us having our own individuality ehehe. :yes

I know how you feel. My sisters and I have such different music preferences! My oldest sister loves ballads. My other sister loves hip-hop/rap/r&b/reggea and I only listen to J-Pop. LOL. Like you said, it's a matter of tastes.

Chuck and I love Ladie's Night. Hell has officially frozen over.

Yeah it has.

ROFL.

Add me to the list too, but that rap similar to the one in 'Fly high' really adds alot of punch to the song.

Kevin, that's one of my favorite parts. :thumbsup

Glad to see a lot of people like the album! :D

Couldn't agree more there. :yes

Agreed.

My new "let-your-hair-down" review:

00.SIGN on - I made thing new, weird intro using this 5 minute intro music for Windows. It sounds like weird electronic Enya music or something. It's pretty cool, because it completely contrasts with the real intro.

01.Bold & Delicious - Hahaha. How did I not love this song? It's so stupid and fun, how can anyone hate it? It's really enjoyable once you shut up about composition and anything deep in the music. It's pure fun. I love this song!!

02.STEP you - It doesn't seem as fun after 50 replays, but it's still an amazing song with great lyrics about some dellusional/determined woman. I love the chorus. Sooo catchy.

03.Ladies Night - I hated the sample, liked the full song, hated the redundancy. After seeing the PV, all this song makes me think of is Butterfly Lady and Ayumi with funny clothes and that crazy elephant. I love this song, it's madness. The 'Fly high' part is really cool. I love this song. ^-^

04.Is this LOVE? - Nothing much to say about this except I love this power ballad and the clarity in Ayu's voice in the verses. I'll know I'll replay it far too much.

05.(miss)understood - Meh, another annoying psuedo-rock thing. Yuck. But this song's sort of growing on me. I like the bridge, but the chorus seems really bleh to me.

06.alterna - Oh, everyone likes this song and I'm no exception. Who cares if she gets stuck in the vacuum for her 'hey come on', it's still an amazing song. Once again, I'll play this song too often.

07.In the Corner - Everyone seems to hate the simple arrangment of this song, but I can't stop listening to it. Sometimes a little simplicity is nice. It doesn't really go anywhere, but who really cares?

08.tasking - Awesome interlude, but it reminds me too much of 'In the Corner' with all the string nonsense. Still, another good interlude.

09.Criminal - This song just can't grow on me. It's too depressing. I can take ballads, but this thing just drags on forever. I like the Yuta Nakano (Did half of Shimatani's H&S arrangement) bridge. But that bridge is so awkward. It does remind me of 'still alone' but that didn't drag on like this...

10.Pride - Another song I just don't like. Strange how I hated B&D but thought this was ok, now I hate this and love B&D. This song is so bleh, and sorry Ayu, it doesn't remind me of Phantom of the Opera (See interview). None of the arrangment really seems to work, in my opinion.

11.Will - Well, looks like I found the 'Bad Three' to skip for this album. It's nice that CREA did something for this album's music, too bad I don't like it. The chorus really bothers me, so repetitive.

12.HEAVEN - I love this ballad, it's pretty powerful, even with the super rushed sounding arrangment. This song makes me want to see SHINOBI. I don't really like the lyrics though.

13.Are You Wake Up? - I LOVE this interlude, it's so fun. Perfect lead-in to fairyland. I can't stop playing this song!! It wouldn't really work out if it was extended, it'd turn out like the absolutely terrible live 'flower garden'. o_o;

14.fairyland - This song always reminds me of summer (Duh, the lyrics, but besides those). I still kind of hate the chorus in the song as a whole because it's so awkward, but it's grown on me a lot.

15.Beautiful Day - Yes, gasp in amazement, even this has grown on me. It really reminds me of Gwen Stefani or some song I've heard a milion times before, but it's a nice song. Better than the awful 'winding road'.

16.Rainy day - Beautiful ballad. I finally noticed the thunder and rain sound effects in the intro and outro. Now I don't have to buy the single since I'm buying this album. Hurray.

Wow. What can I say? Sorry for hating it so much with the separate pieces, but as a whole it's very nice. I think it ties with MY STORY because even with its flaws, it has more fun songs, and I love fun songs. The fun first three songs really convinced me to try the rest of the album. I can't wait to buy this in March. ^-^

a fantastic album overall

Ditto. As soon as I heard the song I thought it was similar to Fly high. Really makes the song worth listening to.

At first I thought I would hate it because I only heard the english part. :\

It's ok :) everyone has a right to like or dislike an album. It's not like everyone can like her releases but I'm really really glad you like it :yes Makes me happy!

I actually like this album. :] Where as there are tracks that I really like and others i don't particularly like. Like I really like (miss)understood and Criminal. Those are nice tracks. ¦D Ladies Night sounds like a fun track. They're pretty good I think. I think i may get it. x]

Make you own (miss)understood magazines reviews!
 

I think there's already a thread where fan-reviews have been posted, though that thread wasn't specifically made for reviews :P, it's something like "what do you think of (miss)understood" or "opinnions on (miss)understood"

The Ladies Night PV made me change my mind. I love this song now :luv2

To me, the only thing bringing the album "down" is the lack of consistency. There are sooo many different styles. I still like this album more than MY STORY because of the song-by-song quality is better IMO.
