I feel like I'm going to repeat what other people's saying, but...this is my 2 cents I guess...

love her new stuff too, I love this album despite it's faults and it has nothing to do with the date I became an Ayu fan (not saying anyone said it in particular). I think people like what they like and they dislike what they like. As long as they have an intelligent reason behind it, it's all good.

I agree with you so much on this.
As for emotion...it's so subjective that I feel there's a neverending debate just because like
Emiko said, emotion is a very subjective thing. What makes me indifferent (for example, I'm fairly indifferent to most of the LOVEppear songs, but others might feel the exact opposite) is another person's emotional rollercoaster, and vice versa. it's interesting to see what people sees as emotion (for me, for example, the overall arrangment of the song plays a huge aspect in what I feel from this song and that's why I love the Secret/Guilty-era orchestral rock songs so much).

If for a person ayu's older voice is better, than that's how he feels we should repsect it, if someone feels that ayu's latest style is the best for him, then we should respect it.
If someone says that he feels that some of the new lyrics are better than the old ones, we should respect him (and of course we have to get respect in return).
The whole thing is subjective and even if most agree on one's opinion and there is still that one that feels differently we should respect him and he should respect the others.
We are discussing about music, not about if the sun is yellow and the skies are blue, therefore nothing is a fact but it's how everyone feels towards something, songs, voice, albums, appearances etc. I do think that harsh words and sentences opinions are giving people legitimate to negatively argue about things and opinions so people should share their opinions in a less harsh way and covney it better.

Exactly. I'm one of those people who prefer her "newer" voice (CD-wise, post-Rainbow, Live...I didn't like her 2003 live voice, so I'm thinking more post-2005) and in all honesty, I can't really explain (I'm also one of those people who loves her more all-out, theatrical tours). There's probably a complex neurological explanation..
but I do see where the "older" voice people comes from and I do respect them for that. I guess the wonders of music is what sound good in one person's ears sounds horrible in another person's ear, and in a way that's a blessing, because it allows music to be diverse and develop into so many different genres and arrangements (there's also probably a complexed anthropological explanation for this too...)
