BRILLANTE is good but not so special to me at least. Lyrics are awesome and all but that's it. Music itself makes me think of a sequel to BALLAD. Musically they're very similar and because I love BALLAD like there's no end, I can't find myself enjoying BRILLANTE as much because I feel like I've heard it before. :/

To me masterpieces are everything she released between 2001-2007. Since 2008 her music has changed so much I hardly find any masterpieces in her albums. It's just how I feel. Rock'n'Roll Circus and Love songs are both amazing though in their own ways. RnRC has that experimental tone on it in some songs and Love songs has really cool and touching lyrics.

As for her upcoming album, I wish it's a well collected mix of everything much like what (miss)understood was. Of course I'm trying not to get my hopes too high because that's when I relive the moments of disappointment I felt with NEXT LEVEL back in 2009 and I don't want that. I'd rather have no high hopes instead and I will definitely like at least 2/3 of her album, which is good. XD
