Descriptions
oo1. Koisomeru | reminiscent of Not yet. but with a more poppy sound.
oo2. finding my Love | mid-tempo cute pop song, seems as though it was made for Koisomeru.
oo3. not even once, never | Ayu's first hard rock song on the album. kind of like a mixture of GAME and Free & Easy. O_O
oo4. KEISHI | IT'S ABOUT NAGASE. that's all i'm saying.
oo5. fated | you've heard it.
oo6. taskinmention | like all the other task interludes.
oo7. Fuyuzora | this will be a fan favorite ;D. cold, slowish track that shall have you in tears.
oo8. kasatate | a very random upbeat song. well with a english title of umbrella stand, what do you expect?
oo9. YES | GOSPELLLL. like Pride, she's copying Mika on this one, lol.
o10. Wait and see.. | techno style interlude, it sounds like the instrumental breakdown in glitter..
o11. glitter | and look what's next! lols.
o12. HATSUSORA | Ayu's most powerful ballad yet. ever. it's like CAROLS, HEAVEN and NEVER EVER in one.
o13. butterfly | pure pop, man.
o14. Maiosameru | dance to this song. the last half of it is music.. lol.
o15. part of ME | 30 secs after Maiosameru is over this comes in. 'cos i love it.

~ i'm actually very happy with this.
