Ooh, but there are 7/4s in it Listen carefully!

There are 2 sets of 7/4 (or was it 6/4, 4/4, 4/4?) directly before the first chorus.
Another 6/4, 7/4, 6/4 before Yo-chan's solo.
The ending is hard to catch, but it's 4/4, 4/4, 7/4 repeated. And since 7/4 is basically 4/4, 3/4, the simplified sequence is 4/4, 4/4, 4/4, 3/4. ^^

We've had a discussion about this before (about 7/4). The song IS in 7/4, but uses different patterns of 7/4 throughout it (as Misa-chan points out, too).

Hmm... I'm sorry but I'm still not finding ANYWHERE where counting to 7 seems natural, even for only one measure... I guess I could be wrong but. I dunno. I'd have to see the sheet music.

I always thought of the title as basically meaning marching to the beat of your own drummer, since 7/4 is so rarely used. *shrug*

may express the meaning of the songs better...for example the titel for one song is "Real me" and its only said in the end....may it expresses much better whats going on in the song...just an suggest

That's true, although Real me does have the title in the lyrics (other than the vocoder effected line at the very, very end)

a woman could be having fun
a woman could be like a nun
in order to survive
Because you see
The real me.

Many, if not most, of Ayu's songs have the English title expressed in Japanese within the lyrics.

i second that. english is really modern in japan culture. of course it has something to do with the western style and of course with the closeness to america and austrlia.
