OK to be honest I've only heard Black Cherry and Feel My Mind from Kuu's work. The only track that I kept on my iPod was COME WITH ME from Feel My Mind, and just Ningyo Hime, Yume no Uta, Puppy (Goshojin-sama!!! I love it), Milk Tea (A great effort as her first try at writing) and I'll Be there. I feel that in Kuu's work there is a 'quantity is better than quality' feel. I don't like that. The transitions are AWFUL. I have to mix the tracks up to actually manage giving it a whole listen. But that's not her fault, it's Sony's. And the single tracks are better than the album tracks by a wide margin leaving an album seperated in two worlds.

Ayu's on the other hand is a masterpiece. The transitions are perfect! The voice is perfect too! The songs all weave together well. Now it could be that I'm saying this cos I am the self proclaimed 2nd biggest Ayu fan(1st is Ayu herself LOL) but it really does feel that she gives time to her work and won't let her label walk all over her and leave her as something who looks pretty and sings and gets in the cash. I feel that Kuu should stand up more to her label and crave for more independence.
