I don't think so. I noticed that, while the midsection of the album tends to be the favorite part for Ayu fans, every single casual listener I made listen to the album liked the other sections more(while usually still pointing out Return Road and reminds me as great tracks though, it's just Tell Me Why, call and Letter that people tend to ignore). Of course that is in no way a sample big enough to get to objective conclusions, but it did make me think. It seems to have to do with expectation and alienation really. People that go into "Party Queen" not knowing Ayumi yet seem to think about it VERY differently from long-term fans.
