NO FUTURE is probably my favourite album track from A ONE. Though I suppose it's a tie between NO FUTURE and Story. Maybe also Out of control.

I like all the songs, but I listen to Zutto..., Walk and The GIFT less often. I still like them, but The GIFT pales in comparison to all the other tracks, and it also barely ever comes on shuffle for some reason. Zutto... and Walk are winter ballads for me, so I tried to refrain from listening to them too often so that I don't get tired of them by the winter season :D

Lord, don't get me started on A ONE. I. Loved. It. And I still Love. It. Especially the GIFT/Out of control. I mean, I won't lie, I'm on a huge Kokia binge and don't really feel like listening to Ayu but during the times that I do lately I've been going for A ONE songs. (Minus Movin' on Without You.) I know that we've had our arguments before of it being a little too much like the "old ayu", but I like the "old Ayu" meeting "new Ayu". Sure, the songs may sound like something she's done so many times but it was nice after all that back and forth of different material going on from #here'sagemofanalbumnamedLoveSongs to #hellyeahpartysongs to #nowaitIhavemorelovesongs to #whateverthehellCOLOURSwasmeanttobe to getting that Ayu that I originally fell in love with. Of course, don't get me wrong, I love Ayu experimenting and seeing what she is going to release next but from the first preview listen of Walk from the Zutto... single I knew I was going to looooooooooove whatever album she was going to release next. And I'm so glad it was A ONE. I honestly do love that album so much.

Pretty much yes to all of this! There are some good songs on CoLOURS and LOVE again but I don't often listen to the whole album because it just didn't flow for me. I keep wanting to go back and edit Ayu's last three or four albums into a couple of solid cohesive albums.

NO FUTURE has amazing vocals in verses but I don't really enjoy the high pitched vocals in the chorus. Anyone else thinks that the verses sound more like a chorus? Or is it just me>?

DevilsClap 17th November 2015 02:34 PM

^ I for one really like the high pitched parts
and you are right the verses could be the chorus too.

My least favorite from A ONE would be Movin' on without you too
I do listen to it from time to time but I enjoy the other songs way more.
There is always a perfect time to listen to each of the songs

Kokia binges are the best things ever. :D

Aokani 17th November 2015 06:33 PM

Oh gosh, I might be the only one, but A ONE is one of my least liked Ayu-albums :0

TheRainbow 17th November 2015 06:56 PM

That honor will always go to NEXT LEVEL for me lol.

DevilsClap 17th November 2015 07:38 PM

My least favorite album would be A song for XX. ;-;

DonkeyKongRemix 17th November 2015 08:09 PM

I don't even think I have a least favorite Ayu album. I think it might be COLOURS and A One but I don't even kind of hate those albums at all. And you know, R'n'R Circus is definitely not on the top of my list, though I do feel it serves its purpose.

A Song for XX and NEXT LEVEL are actually near the top of my favorites. I think right now my absolute favorite album of hers is a tie between Duty, NL, and LOVEppears, though I just love (M)U, I am..., and RAINBOW. :D

I am one of those people who just...loves her music to pieces. Like, I can pretty much listen to any of her music. I only strongly dislike...like three or four songs she's ever done which are Teens, How Beautiful You Are, WARNING, and Sayonara, though I don't hate WARNING too much now.

Delicious n Bold 17th November 2015 08:19 PM

I actually forget about A ONE until I visit here.
Not sure about fav and least fav albums, they can change easily.

DevilsClap 17th November 2015 09:58 PM

I like most of her songs too that's why I can't actually say I hate any album because each of her albums has several songs I enjoy. And even the ones I don't enjoy as much, I still listen to them from time to time. It might be rare but I still listen to them.

Gustavopc 18th November 2015 12:01 AM

Over the time I grew to like at least all her albums, but if I'd claim one as my least favourite, it'd be MY STORY (I know some of you LOVE this album but the songs just don't work for me)

paper_doll 18th November 2015 01:50 AM

MY STORY's a weird album for me. I listened to it constantly when it came yet but I feel that it's very forgettable. Like, imo there's a few stand-out songs (CAROLS, Moments, About You) but most of it's so middle of the road that it's unremarkable. Like who ever thinks, 'oh man, I really need to listen to Replace/HOPE or PAIN/HONEY'?

And it's not that any of the songs are really bad (okay, HONEY is), but they don't stand out it any way.

TheRainbow 18th November 2015 01:58 AM

Aw, I really enjoy it as an album, though my name's WOMEN has never worked for me. The chorus feels like it needs something yet it's stuffy and it drags a bit live lol. I really like HONEY though, so what do I know. :laugh

jiarongisme 18th November 2015 02:31 AM

MY STORY has and always will be my favorite Ayu album.

My story is one of my least favorite albums from ayu. So i totally agree with you.:yes

Corvina 18th November 2015 12:21 PM

Now that you mention it, MY STORY is one of her albums I rarely listen to.
But when asked about my favourite and least liked Ayu albums, I never think about it.

I have clear favourites with Ayu.
My all time faves are LOVEppears, Rainbow and Love songs.
I also really, really like NEXT LEVEL.

Apart from that I don't really care for any of her other albums. Just for certain songs.
Though the album I'd always rank as my least favourite probably is Rock'n Roll Circus.
Idk, it's not like it has the most songs I don't like, cause there are other albums of her as well having the same amount. It doesn't have a single song I stan for though. It used to be Don't lock back. But this totally wore off.
Overall I totally dislike the overall direction she took with it. The concept. Her trying to be so cute in almost all the photos for the shoot, which just never works for me. And most of the songs. It just feels so bland.
Idk, I just strongly dislike the whole package of it.

YukiUsagi 18th November 2015 12:26 PM

Happy ending 5.1 channel & My Story classical are really nice. But the original album is just no :no

chocopockymaster 18th November 2015 12:37 PM

smh @ all this MY STORY hate, get outta here
