Ayu's lyrics in the A song xx era...(Mini rant)

[CHE.R.RY]

I think the ASFXX album was one of those albums that was heavily focused on lyrics rather than melodies. I say this because a lot of people always say that ASFXX was the weakest album of Ayu's, but I think that's mainly because they are focusing on the music rather than the lyrics. I agree though that her lyrics back then were much different from what you get from her today...they were much less vague & far more direct. I sometimes kind of wish Ayu would write like that again, but I am able to appreciate her more indirect lyricism as well....sometimes it can come across as more meaningful when it is less direct (if that makes sense). Either way, it just goes to show that Ayu is a great lyricist no matter what approach she takes .
