I asked this question once lol and all I got in return was "she can do whatever she wants why do you care?" I think by truehappiness actually.

Probably because she likes to sum up the feeling/meaning of the song in english. To give it a twist or something. Maybe she feels she can convey it better in english than in japanese. I don't really think she does it cause it's appealing. Utada has a song with a spanish title "Me Muero". Namie has a song title in french "toi et moi". but the fact that every single song ayu has is with an english title seems kind of unusual. Even the japanese titled songs are written in romaji/english "hanabi, kanariya, hana". The only song not fitting this description is "sotsugyo shashin". and that's not even her song, it's a cover. I think the only way we'll know is to ask her herself.
