^ Duty doesn't even have any electric guitars or drums in it? It's all strings and stuff isn't it? So wouldn't that be a ballad?

I guess you could say it's a ballad, but it doesn't really feel like a ballad to me...it has that heavy quality you could expect from rock. But that's just my opinion, of course. XD

WHEHE!!! You wrote 1998, but it's 1999.
I'm so sure you made a typing mistake zyoeru, but it made me lol so hard.

well it could be worse
it could be ～since 1784～
but that would make her almost as old as namie

Well... every Ayumi original track is pop music, even when it has rock or anything else influences... And even if she has ballads (pop music ballads), some of her ballads are rock influenced so... it's not that easy to put everything on cathegories xD

Duty, ourselves, In The Corner should be pop..

In my opinion, anything that isnt rock, not ballad, is pop.

Oh snap. You guys caught me.

^ You fail. :3

~~ But I agree with all your song input though, I think you got the genres for them just about right. I'd say Duty was a rock ballad, but there's where things get weird. XD

Duty feels very symphrock inspired :3 so I think it fits in with the rock songs

You forgot talkin' 2 myself and decision, which are also both very symphmetal inspired

^ I actually included talkin' 2 myself and decision. XD

But I think you're right~.

LOVE'n'HATE is more pop, while winding road is ballad for me
