It was just me, the ocean and Ayu's amazing music xD Her music truly is magical when you're in the right setting, that's why I always love to walk around listening to her music. Last year I went out for a walk during a snowstorm just so I could listen to all her winter ballads in the middle of the snowfall, especially momentum. That was like a religious experience for me, lmao

Omg, SHIT YES! Actually momentum was just playing in my head and I have somewhat of an urge to listen to it outside but the context is not right yet. I prohibit myself from listening to No way to say, momentum, and Days from the time the snow melts until the very first snowfall, just to really enhance that magical experience of feeling "at one" with those songs. This also keeps them feeling "fresh" for me, because there I always look at them with a sense of wonder and anticipate hearing them again.
They each are perfect for different occasions/contexts:
No way to say - Cool, winter night; THICK snowflakes falling (not that super wet, yucky stuff); somewhat windy but there are also calm breaks [really cool when the wind picks up during the chorus and settles down again for the verses]
momentum - Daytime (but can also work at night); grey skies; snowing or not snowing; better for days that feel "harsh" or "unforgiving"
Days - Day of course, cheery (sun feels shining even though it's winter); snowing or not snowing but super great if it's snowing thick flakes like what is appropriate for listening to No way to say at night; good for strolling on the streets past shops and such
I take this seriously, lmao.
