The only song I am 'so-so' about on again is actually Wake me up.
I see it as the weakest link in terms of nearly everything.
However, I LOVE how the album becomes progressively darker, and Wake me up certainly emphasizes this with it's presence.
Happy go lucky, to contemplating one's own life in a rather haunting fashion.

I think Ivy is my favourite.
again actually sort of reminds me of the trilogy + ever free.
Wake me up = vogue
snowy kiss = Far away
Sweet scar = SEASONS
Ivy = ever free

^ I think I like it my way better.

The PV storyline was the only true disappointment for me with this release. I think it was executed poorly.

^I don't said it is an object. But there is no problem to raise children and don't stop working. We live in 2012 and not 1812.

No one mentioned that it was a problem.

I think it's admirable that Koda returned to work so soon, but her situation is different from Ayu's. I think Ayu is approaching how she continues her career very differently, and therefore it's not really right to compare.

In Japan it's still 1812 when it comes to that.

So many amazing singers just stopped their career entirely when they had a kid, or even just when they got married I'll never forgive HIGH and MIGHTY COLOR's Maki for becoming a housewive the day she got married and leaving her band entirely.

^yeah... it's really sad that Maki stopped her activities. Sadly it's really still 1812 in Japan regarding things like marriage and children...

Therefore I'm really happy und positive surprised that Kuu didn't stopped and was back without being ever really away.

Even if I agree with you become singer or actress is not a common work I can understand that they decide to stop their carrer a couple a month or years in order to enjoy their children ! It's not like "Mrs. everyone" who must go back to work because she needs money !

I love that picture because is true.
If someone says that they don't like what I wear I always say "did you buy it for me?"

We should be getting an announcement for the fourth release soon.
I wonder what it'll be...
I'm hoping new music as Ayu is on a roll at the moment (that's weird imagery if ever I saw it; A BAKERY?).
