I adore reminds me, that's my dreary; its emotional heartbreaking and powerful. I adore how even the intro is packed with so much emotion. The chords build into a deeper and deeper sadness until you can feel the sadness begin to be taken over by anger. It's genius. For me it is so much better than Last minute in all aspects.

SAKURA is dreary in a way that feels drawn out. Idk it makes me feel like I'm window shopping, lol. Or sitting in a restaurant, which makes sense considering I believe it was inspired by her having a meal with a close (now passed away) friend in a restaurant.

And wow, GUILTY is so good for me. It felt fresh yet completely hamasaki ayumi. There's nothing that strays too far from her sound, but all the songs are somewhat fresh in their own sense. To me, it was her last album that was able to pull that off and walk that fine line.
