I LOVE Sayonara but the guys' voices all sound so bored, haha.

And yeah, The GIFT and Sayonara were definitely "Ayu's foray" into a wider Asian market and I think it worked in getting a bit more of an audience for both tracks and the videos but the results were kinda lackluster. Sayonara was POPPIN' but the Asian boy band was horrible at singing. The GIFT was okay but JJ Lin's singles are WAY better than what he made.

I kinda wish when Ayu collaborated, people would bring their A-game. You know that Armin did with Terminal IMO. (even if it was reminiscent to Ferry vs. Armin) But for some acts like DAISHI DANCE, I feel like Sayonara and stuff like What is forever love are not the AMAZING material that he is capable of.
