1. I am... - a masterpiece, really. Every song on this album is amazing, suitable interludes too. The lyrics too, so so good. It's also got the most fitting album title in my opinion. It's just her masterpiece album. It's got great flow and I love every song.
2. Duty - Ayu rock at it's best, and most emotional, level. This album does everything well, rock songs, rock influenced ballads, upbeat tunes that don't sound out of place, great ballads, and a typical Ayu "high emotion song" (teddy bear). Not too fond of girlish, but compared to her other "happy album enders" (independent, Humming) it's tolerable
3. Secret - Great ballads (JEWEL, momentum, Secret), kiss 'o kill is one of her best songs. I love the upbeat stuff too. I like every song on this album actually... I used to love until that Day & 1 LOVE 'til she overkilled that mediocre live performance of them
4. LOVEppears - the lyrics on this album ♥ I loath Kanariya, and I'm not that fond of TO BE and End roll, but everything else on this album is amazing
5. (miss)understood - lots of variety on this one, still some really weak songs here though (rainy day, Beautiful day), but the really great ones make them easy to ignore (B&D, Ladies Night, Will, HEAVEN, fairyland)
6. Love Songs - some of the albums below have better standalone songs, but this album worked so well as a concept, but also, it may be because I'd not really liked the previous few albums as much. Also, crossroad. I've played that song so so much it's now my most played Ayu song. I LOVE it.
7. memorial address - I hate Greatful days. ANGEL'S SONG annoys me too, the rest of the songs are great though, but Greatful Days is easily her worst song, hence the albums lower ranking for the quality of the other songs
8. RAINBOW - great standalone songs (Voyage, Free & Easy) but... I just find I rarely listen to this album.
9. MY STORY - as an album it's bland, but standalone 90% of the songs are great
10. NEXT LEVEL - I like this album more than the ranking shows, I couldn't decide which way round to put this and MS. I love GREEN, rollin' and identity. I hate Days. I hate it so much.
11. Rock'n'Roll Circus - got bored once the theatricals stopped being dramatic. Last Links is amazing though, and I'll probably get into Sunrise in the summer.
12. A Song for xx - ranked so low because of vocals, more stand out songs that RnRC (ASFXX, Powder Snow, For my Dear, Depend on you)
13. GUILTY - As you can tell, I'm not too fond of newer Ayu rock, and this song is just that. I like talkin' 2 myself and glitter, and I won't deny that Untitled is powerful, it just falls so short compared to all her other albums. I never think, "I want to listen to GUILTY" it's always..."why is there nothing I want to listen to on GUILTY?!". They're not bad songs, and I do listen to them from time to time, I'd just rather listen to something else.
