Merry-Go-Round is actually solid, much better than Feel The Love for sure. The instrumental is stunning and her vocals are rather nice as well!
I can't help but find them dull and uninspired though, Ayu sounds awkward doing this kind of EDM music, it comes off as gimmicky and a tad tacky actually. As catchy as they are i can't take them seriously, i really appreciate that she's trying something new but if she has to do electropop/dance music something like Sparkle or Rollin' would be much more pleasing imo. Cause here she just sounds like a back-up singer, she doesn't own the songs at all. Namie does this genre of music much more justice, where Ayu clearly owns on the ballad front (which is why i'm looking much more forward to Pray)
