It's catchy but not in a good way for me
Even if house is not my jam and it might feel 'outdated' I don't really think we can categorise it as that. The new composer, who has worked with Ayu, understands what the trend is nowadays (Beyonce, Tinashe and a lot of artists now). I think this is the first time in many years that Ayu has released a song that is not disconnected from the rest of the world.

That is not to say that it is good or bad, nor that I prefer it, but I think it is important to comment on it.

I prefer non fiction. The verses of Summer Again are excellent, they're a 10, but the chorus loses rhythm and doesn't sound melodic enough.
