For me, it's one of, if not the best put together album, mostly because it's consistent, without being boring. It also doesn't really fall under any genre, it's not exactly Rock, but it's not really pop either, which kind of goes hand in hand with Ayu's releases...or well...the good ones anyway.
Which isn't really anything.

That's probably the best opinion I've heard of the album. I look at it a slightly different light now. It's still not my favorite though.

Yeah the tracks did sound the same to me too.

I only listen to 7 of the 17 tracks and most of them are the singles. All of my favorite MY STORY songs are on A BEST 2, so I quite literally never listen to the album.
Anyway, I hope I'm not too bold in saying this, but I think it's weird that Japan doesn't like this type of music. Forget whether it's "good or bad," it's dance/electropop which is what's "in" now. The fact that Ayu even tried it is different in itself. Do you think Japan tolerates this music from others and just not her?
