I love "A" so this song with a similar sound was a breath of fresh air for me. Ayu's English in the song is a bit hit and miss, but although we know her English is pretty good, it's really difficult to switch languages mid-song!

I really want more fun songs like this in the new album :D

I like it,,, unusual to hear song like this for this time.

this would have been soooo much better for me if that second rap in english was done in the same voice before it... >_<

This. :yes

Honestly, it's a new Ayu song that pretty much came out of nowhere, and it's really catchy and fun - I have no complaints.

It's a bit of a guilty pleasure for me, to be honest :P

I enjoy it. It's a fun and unexpected song. I just don't like the cheap sounding keyboards during the chorus!

Plus Timmy's rap; makes me cringe :P

About people complaining about ayu english: english parts in J-Pop songs are pretty aestethic and sometimes it has strong accent in purpose. Timmy is native english-speaker, but his rapping at Happening Here has that awkward accent. Strange, huh? Not really.

Honestly, I actually like this. She sounds super cute and I like her rapping. The only thing that's annoying about the song is the instruments...like the strings...you can tell they are all midi/synth and not real. That's disappointing; she could have used real instruments...it's Ayu!!! Other than that, I very much enjoy it!

^But the synth sound is totally intended, for that great 90's TRF sound! And yes, as previously mentioned the accent might be on purpose, the lyrics were probably written in katakana!
I'm also so glad she finally mentioned unity and sexual orientation in one of her songs, even though she's alluded to it in the past. Its revolutionary for J-pop honestly!
