I thought it was bearable until the random English rap near the end. I mean, what the hell That was so random..lol. But her voice sounds good in it, cute to hear her rapping as well

I don't think that the English rap near the end is random at all. I'm going to quote what I've written in the arena tour thread:

I just can understand "Ladies and Gentleman welcome....?", after that a few words like "pleasure" and "pain" (I thought he says something like "There is a book of all your pleasure, there is a book of all your pain", but I'm not sure). Than he says "No matter if you're rich, poor, boy, girl, straight, gay" After that I'm totally lost, it's way to fast for me to understand. I only understand the words "body" and "dancefloor" and the last sentence "give it up for the Queen Ayumi Hamasaki and HOTEL Love songs".
Please, can anybody help? 'Cause I think this part could be meant as the introduction to what will come next. And after figuring this little bit out I really like the song, and can't stop thinking of HOTEL Love songs as a really grand and fun show.

i like this song now just for that, hahahaha!



i hear:
ladies and gentelmen, welcome one and all
...something...
and leave your inhibitions at the door
theres a book of all your pleasure
theres a book of all your pain
don't matter if you're rich, poor, boy, girl, straight, gay

but then the other rapper...i really can't understand much of what he says at all.
