Ayu hasn't had an earworm of a song that drills itself into your head and doesn't budge for a while. Most of her tracks lately seem to be very "I'm making these songs because I want to make them. If you do not like it, then they're just not to your tastes." as opposed to "This song is made to be a hit." which a lot of her tracks in 2006 were like, I think.
I agree with everything, but the fact that the Japanese public responded so well to Days, I think that her fan base actually responded well to the song and not the general public. That actually happened to Together When... which sold way better digitally than Days/GREEN not to mention the 400k cds GUILTY sold during the first 2 weeks...
