[AmyRoseM]

I'm just really not the biggest fan of Ayu's current vocal technique.. just too forced. Also I really wish she would do more layering and get some better mixing/arranging, (her current sound is sort of a flat and hollow to me) but BESIDES THAT, I am really enjoying these songs! I still rather listen to Ayumi all day than anyone else. <3

tasky - 4/5 Hi perfect intro!

FLOWER - 4/5 Her vocals during the chorus are a bit rough, but other than that this song is so solid! My favorite track for sure!

Mad World - 3.5/5 Love her emotion in this song, but the arrangement could have had more going on. Still very good!

Breakdown - 3.5/5 The crazy ending totally saved this song for me! Because it is so her. LOVE.

Survivor - 3/5 Super fun and different(yay!) but also kind of cheesy.

You are the only one - 3.5/5 Love the light and airy arrangement. And the ending! I love it when she does this.

TODAY - 2.5/5 Just ok.

Mr.Darling - 3.5/5 I actually really like this! It sticks in my head.

Summer Love - 3/5/5 - Fun and cute! The chorus is a bit weak for me but still super fun!

Overall it's not my favorite but I'm super happy to have some new tracks and tasky and FLOWER are definitely my favorites! I sort of wish this had been a concept album and all songs had traditional Japanese instruments. That would have blown my mind.
