Nothing Ayu can do seems to be able to impress the majority...

I bet if she took a hiatus like Hikki everyone would be begging for music again, we should be thankful we at least have new stuff coming to us so often. A LQ preview doesn't mean the song will be good or bad, just wait for for the full thing.

This! Fans are a difficult bunch to please : P. They want more music but they want more of the same but they also want originality AS LONG AS it doesn't stray from her regular formula but aside from wanting new and exciting stuff they also want her to release something every day (preferably) and every release had better be her best one yet and also magically please every fan there is!

Overreacting somewhat of course, but still : P

^ Seriously LOL. Some Ayu fans have major entitlement issues.

This might be a little inappropriate.... Don't read if you're a prude.

Spoiler:


Ayu's like sex. If you get it all the time you start getting picky and wanting to try new things but after you tried them all you get bored again. But if you get less sex, you'll be happy to get any in the first place.

Well I'm glad you are enjoying it. I'm just patiently waiting for something more my cup of tea. 2 more singles in 2 months - somethings gotta be AMAZING (although I do reeeeally like blossom).

But what I mean about being composed the right way, is that it seemed that the feel of the song was spot on. There's a lot more about her music now that I tend to think "This would have been better if this melody here was changed, if the composition in this part was used more throughout the song, if she sang in this tone here instead of that tone, etc.

To me it seems like they just didn't give it enough time in the studio for it to fully bloom.

I see. You mentioned something about wanting another JEWEL earlier, have you listened to the meaning of Love piano version? It kind of gave me that same feeling/something similar, probably because the same person arranged it.

No I haven't even listened to meaning of Love original mix in full. Lol. It just didn't click at all with me. Really did not like it

I'd suggest giving the piano version a try anyway, quite a few people who hated the original mix liked that one.
