I wasn't in love with A in the beginning. Somehow a few years later (that was.. during MY STORY era?) I looked back to her older songs, A was quite unique. It's like she threw her darkness and frustration x4.
H was... overrated. (I feel myself a bit shame to say that...since it's her only yearly no. 1 single). Back then I was in the "drifting away" mode from ayu since I was fed up with her saturation of singles and stuff (yeah... that were too many singles in 2001). I forced myself to fall in love with H since it got over 500K on the first week (hey, not many singles could do that during 2002). But in the end I figure out that I only love HANABI (not greatly in love tho). I like independent and July 1st but they were not that perfect. It's just like another ayu song in 2001 (yeah...)
& was epic tho. I felt the strangeness when I first heard ourselves because the music was really different from her usual style. I didn't like H~episode II~ in the beginning but ended up falling in love with it (more than HANABI). Greatful days was a normal summer song from ayu but it sounded so relaxing.
I hope I will like Last angel in the end. It'll be sad if I cannot love the whole single....
