Okay, review time!

Love song: After the overflow of singles and the complaining of many about "anothur barrad wuut" or "midtempo wuut", this was a little fresh(er) and obviously stands out as one of the best singles. It's been a while since I've truly appreciated the use of piano in a happy-sounding song, and the lyrics are again Ayu-standard. But it's nothing especially great to me, good for a few listens, easily forgettable next to her classics and basically, the rest of her work.

6.5/10


Sending Mail: The verses and chorus' are so different from eachother! Such a strong song. I can appreciate that it's good, but have yet to really like it a lot personally. The chorus is very nostalgic of her old sound from LOVEppears, that I like.

8/10

Insomnia: Best interlude on the album. Love the trance kinda sound at the end, and the vocal manipulation.

9/10

Like a doll: I love it! The Christmas beats are a little out of place, but it's somehow endearing. I like how the song builds up, and the 'like a doll' chorus shows how you don't need a huuge ending to make it seem epic.

9/10

Aria: It's okay, not as good as insomnia. /shrug

4/10

Thank U: Nothing amazing, the only disappointment on the album for me. Another GLITTER imo, doesn't really fit. But it's cute, happy, and it made me smile.

5/10

Overture: Sounds like a song from a game, but not necessarily a bad thing. It's nice, but nothing awesome and doesn't stand out. But it flows nicely and I like the string instrumentals

7/10

do it again: Epic, amazing, beautiful, etc. I really, really like this. I'm actually beyond words for this song. I'm worried I'll overplay it though I liked the preview, love the PV, love the rip. I can see why so many people are going on about it so much. I can't wait to see the PV in full, and it's definitely the best song on the whole album. GTFO if you complain about the repeating chorus, because the way it's built up doesn't make it boring at all.

10/10

November: I liked the preview, but the whole song surpassed my expectations when I listened to it in full. It's a beautiful song with really thoughtful lyrics, and I'll definitely play this a lot. Second best song on the album for me personally.

9/10

Overall: 8.5/10
