This is so effing exciting, oh my god. A new Ayumi Hamasaki single. Just typing that got me giddy
I'm not against Ayu dabbling in EDM - one, because I don't think she'll abandon everything to overindulge in it, and two because when she has dabbled in it before with things like Sparkle she's still had plenty of her own personality/charm in it. It wasn't soulless dance music.
Feel the love is no different - it has distinct Ayu charm and wouldn't have sounded out of place coming out years ago in her discography. I love how soft and beautiful the verses sound and just how damn catchy the chorus is. Merry-go-round is really intriguing too.
I. am. excited. I just kind of wish she'd throw in a winter ballad as a B-side just to capitalize on the release date, but this is fine too
