What you usually see is people saying RAINBOW has a bunch of fillers and their examples mostly fall under songs like "Close to you", "Dolls" & "Over" (being WE WISH the main exception). Plus it is really noticeable that by the way songs were put in RAINBOW, her rockish tracks get extremely dilluted by the ballads, because there are actually moments you get to ask yourself: Geez I liked so much songs like Free&Easy and independent but they seem almost inexistant in this album (not to mention that independent gets cut in the end and is instantly mixed with +, a track not everyone liked a all). If independent had not been placced in the end of he album it would probably get higher grades. I'm saying all that but I honestly really loved the RAINBOW album, specially tracks like Over.

I actually think both "Dolls" and "Over" are excellent songs. I also love "Ree And Easy", "Hanabi" and any song in the album.
