Humming 7/4 is still my least favorite song by her, and one of the most annoying songs i've ever heard. I appreciate that she wanted to end the album in a (much too late) energetic way, but all it does is giving me a headache.

I agree about the album being extremely boring, yet having quite a lot of gems. Moments, Carols, Walking Proud, Winding Road, GAME, About You etc. are all amazing tracks on their own, but together they sound so bland. I think it's the album she has with the most filler, i keep forgetting half of the songs. It's in my opinion a very "by the book" J-Pop album, 4-5 great songs and then a lot of samey, typical ballads. It's missing that magic all her other albums somehow convey, even albums like Party Queen and Love Again which i hardly like has it hidden somewhere. However i think my biggest problem with it is, that pretty much all of the songs are weaker versions of songs she's already released or released a couple of years later. They just don't stand out at all in my opinion.
