Wow, I've only watched it once, this morning, and I haven't felt any urge to watch or listen to it again. With both GAME and surprisingly even INSPIRE, I watched the PVs a second time. This was not a very surprising PV, it was quite boring. I'd prefer something beautiful like CAROLS but this isn't the right song to do it to. I think HOPE or PAIN sounded like it'd make a better PV to air to promote the album...

Sorry, I have to change my rating because I realized I was too nice in it.

PV:4/10. Unorginal, Uninspired. The director re-used so much from previous PVs even so far as to use the exact same shirt movements from GAME. During GAME I was really pumped up and excited, it drew me in, but this just made me think, "Is it over yet, I can't wait to turn it off and never watch it again."

Song:5/10. Almost as boring as the PV. PVs are what make your remember songs and leave a lasting impression if it's also the first time you have heard the song. Ayumi's M was a beautiful song with a beautiful PV that I will always remember. CAROLS and forgiveness were also beautiful PVs that really helped me like the songs. This song already boring and repetitive, and to make it worse, the bridge and final chorus did not seem any different from the rest of the song.

And blah, I don't care if some of you think I'm just always so negative. As you can see, I don't hate all Ayumi's new music, I actually like CAROLS, Moments and GAME as well as her old stuff. I still consider myself a fan, though a very critical one. Artists have their ups and downs, and it seems Ayu is currently in a down...
