I would say the bells in Free & Easy fit the song very well as Free & Easy is a very solemn song.. For Mirrorcle World, the first minute was totally useless but i like the idea of it as it created different "moods" in the song, which (i think) was what the title of the song suppose to mean.

yeah! i missed out fated! fated is such a sad song. I think it could be better without the screeching sound. It's true the screeching sound at the beginning literally made me feel like skipping this song on the mp3.

Well, i dont like it nor hate it. jus wondering whats the purpose of it. cos some songs like fated and Will, their beginnings serve no purpose (not that i can think of).

yeah.. NEVER EVER is another song with weird opening. but i must say the beginning of NEVER EVER do sound like its purpose is to bring us to another world.. ??

and for Bold & Delicious, i like the opening. It's fresh. Not many ayu songs begin with such punch. and what's more? it brings us to the mood right away, from the beginning. that's why i like it.
