Really love it!!!! :)

I like it a lot better than Feel the love. I wish it was rock though. The beginning is so cool.

AyuWorld 21st November 2013 08:38 AM

omg! tasking beats me! xD just how many hours did this up?

omg! soooo excited coz im freaking loved this!

jiarongisme 21st November 2013 08:39 AM

I'm liking it better than Feel the love! Could do without the rap imo, but the chorus is great! The R&B-esque EDM vibe kinda reminded me of Usher's music.

The beginning part slays me! but the rest's just OK! i also find her voice's a little bit annoying!

I found that the beginning is so cool! nothing sounds like typical Ayu :luv2

just that her "ah-ah-ah-ah" part is too much edited lol, sounds a bit strange

Ayu-me 21st November 2013 08:54 AM

Wow. This song and "Feel the love" feel so new and different from Ayu's usual sound, and I wouldn't necessarily say that's bad but I feel like I need to process this more before I can appreciate it fully (=listening to these songs a lot during the next few weeks :yes).
What I can say about "Merry-go-round" at the moment is that its flaws mainly lie in the vocals part for me, but the song itself sounds great and I'm pleasantly surprised by how well the rap fits into it. My, this single is making me very excited for Ayu's future works as well, this definitely feels like an era largely separated from "LOVE again"s (mostly) sweet and subdued tone.

This song (m-flo specifically) saved the single for me - and I'm sure a lot of other people.

freedreamer 21st November 2013 09:00 AM

WOW!!! This is so fresh :D her voice wow

Gustavopc 21st November 2013 09:02 AM

Without m-flo, the lyrics could have fit a rockish winter ballad SO MUCH, but I'm really glad she went for something differente, it sounds so fresh :heart Really loving this single

emi♡ 21st November 2013 09:03 AM

This song really highlights how much a piece of crap that other song is.


Thank god for people who actually know how to compose!

Yeah, her voice is a little strained and high...but who cares, the song is -pretty-.

I'm really surprised they went for this sound.

Kirshwasser 21st November 2013 09:05 AM

the rap part is very good.. really suits the song very well

truehappiness 21st November 2013 09:05 AM

WOW!!! I'm dying from the perfection.

This is totally her new-boyfriend single. Though the lyrics of this song seem to indicate a rough patch but not being able to forget about each other?

I do agree. I wasn't really feeling "feel the love", it's not a bad song but it's just not my style and I didn't enjoy listening to it.
This however is so awesome! I haven't been expecting much from this single and now this song pops up! I really didn't expect a song this great :) I really like it!!

kaito_moonlove 21st November 2013 09:07 AM

I really love the part after rapping . This song is pretty wonderful, better than feel the love. I'm looking forward to listening full and watching 2 pvs of this single ! Yay

truehappiness 21st November 2013 09:12 AM

I think rather than insult Feel the love which is a fun and catchy song, this just feels like the 'deeper' Ayu aka the usual second A-side/B-side like alterna or whatever.

The lyrics feel like ASFXX Ayu.

This sort of production feels somewhat Namie-ish to me, but the lyrics are 100% Ayu. I wonder if she wrote the rap too?

TheRainbow 21st November 2013 09:16 AM

I like it, even with the rap!
