I found the lyrics and themes present in the album forgettable (taking into account I only read the translations)...

It's sad how some fans can be so blinded by nostalgia.



I'm really not sure exactly what you mean by "menacing sexuality", but that's been done before too. Nine Inch Nails? She also touched upon that theme in the Sparkle PV.
my name's WOMEN is GOLD! It's so ahead of it's time, I started a whole case about it in the news and information thread for Party queen yesterday.
