Very well said. And, unless I missed something, I doubt Ayu sat down with a translator and went through her songs with them. Those 'official' translations are probably just another person's interpretation. Unless Ayu does it herself, which she couldn't, there'll never be a 100% correct translation.
And some users really need to get over this 'bashing Ayu' thing they think is happening on this forum. Nobody's being vile towards her or unreasonable. We're all here because we love her, but we're still allowed to have negative opinions and criticize/critique her work...
