Hmmm... The song was okay, it seems to be one of those Ayu songs I really like when they come out (since it's new and all) and six months later it's the song I return to couple times a month just to listen to it and to be amazed. Her voice was the thing I reacted to, not so much the arrangement.
For me, the arrangement doesn't seem to be much, but her voice makes up for it. I have the same thing with
is this LOVE?, only vice versa. Her voice is alright, but for me she pushes her voice too much on the CD. But the arrangement is so fierce, I don't mind it taking more spotlight off of Ayu than what an arrangement should.

The cutesy song title doesn't exactly fit with how the song itself sounds, and that's good. Would rather have a great sounding song with a crappy title than vice versa~

^Well for me, I'd have to see the lyrics/translation. I love Love song, but the lyrics are not my taste at all, too cliché and mainstream. I disliked MOON, Do It Again and Like a Doll until I saw a translation and now I can't get enough of
any of them
(well, maybe MOON, hhhaha) But I agree with you about the
sound, it gives the song a hint of mystery.

People judging/hating the song already from that clip, you're not very bright. lol

^ Don't agree. Like someone already pointed out, the clip is about 70% of the whole song. And some of us simply know what we like/dislike - when I saw the Secret CM for the first time, I gagged at
Beautiful Fighters. gagged on a, what was it, 5-7 second clip? And my mind hasn't really changed. People are free to say if they like/dislike a song based on the given material and to be able to
change their minds afterwards. But to say something like
(not saying that anybody here did this) "this is the most awful Ayu song ever, they should burn this" would, yes, be a bit extreme.
I still wouldn't call them stupid since that's just mean, but oh well, I might be overreacting.

^ I got a very reminds me/immature/too late/As if/SURREAL feeling. Wow, that's a lot I guess :D The song is very fresh to me, I don't really care what it reminds me of ^^ Besides, my first thought was "Oh, well this is very Hitomi Shimatani-ish"

^ No no no no :no Leave the past to the past and let us live in the present. Ayu has dealt with her past (imo) and she's stepped into a new era.
I don't want history to keep repeating itself :no

There's really no pleasing anybody here.
Everybody complains that releases don't sound as good as her old stuff.
Then we get something that is vaguely similar to her past work and people hate it for that reason.
I don't understand this logic.

^ So? People have opinions. I think it's great, especially if you can express them grace and head held high :yes

Cool, Do as Infinity composer. Hopefully the Party Queen era comes to an end with this. It is definitely the correct direction, at least for me. :)

:lech Even though I love PQ
(yes I do fellows!!) I agree on this one. Just as I like NEXT LEVEL, but one techno/electro -album is fine with me :yes Let us continue our road!!!
