I dislike Love Song. Love the album now, but that song I only recently started to play. I always start the album at crossroad. I just feel like her shouting is too much "yeah yeaaah" and the chorus is so watery.

I think crossroad grew on me more than any other song. And November.

A lot of those songs are so on par with each other for me though...I was bored.

i don't mind Timmy appearing as a composer in the new album/mini album. his music is quite good and versatile. just hope that he won't appear in any of her new PV...

Microphone was the last song I listened to that totally blew me away, meaning I could not stop listening to it for the next week.

what turned me off (a lot) to love songs (the album) were not the songs, but her grating voice. Her vocals for that album....my ears just can't take it.

^ Too bad. Love songs turned out to be one of the best albums for me. It has so many gems on it! Love song kind of became an Ayu classic <3 and crossroad, Last angel, Virgin road, do it again, November and Last angel are no less.

When I look at the album cover of Love Songs, I was like WTF? Are you pretending you are a young girl, ayu? After few days, I got used to the cover. When the songs were leaked, I was like wow! I love this album a lot since Secret. It is because Love Songs gives me a strong feeling that Party Queen, NEXT LEVEL, Rock n Roll cannot give me. A strong feeling that can shake my heart and my emotion all the time when I listen to Love Songs.

Love song is the best song in her discography for me. I have listened to it over 1000 times easily and am still not sick of it.

I can't understand how people dislike love songs. This is one of her best albums in the last years. Compare to PQ, it is in many ways better. The transitions, the insanity of the songs...it is more listenable as PQ imo. I wouldn't say, that Party Queen is bad, i like it too but it don't knocked over me like LS.

I know! Love Songs is what dragged be back into the fandom after the disaster of Guilty. I never really gave the other albums a chance... but Love songs... was...

It just reminded me of Ayumi of the older days... what I loved about the woman...

ah... the memories... lol

I like Love songs, but tbh I listen to PQ more often. Ls it's a nostalgical album (with some songs exceptions) which I have to be in mood for it. Party Queen have "angst" moment (reminds me - Return Road - Tell me why) which I still like to hear in a trio.
but with Ls album "Love song" is one of her best songs in her carieer. It's just Ls is too.. soft for me? That's why I am loving NEXT LEVEL now more, and I wasn't never fan of it oO

but in that case, I can't compare Ls to PQ. They are too completely diffrent albums. Like every Ayu album.

o.O GUILTY was a disaster? I am sorry I respect your opinion, but GUILTY was just so epic. Imo the only album that really came off as a disappointment was NEXT LEVEL.

^ Lol... I love that album now... (next level)

I guess disaster is a bad word for the album... it's just heavy on the rock side and Secret was that as well... it just didn't change enough for me like her albums usually do. I felt it was the same thing.
I will say i enjoyed the singles very much, but the rest of it was just bland for me. But as I have aged and the album as aged I enjoy it more, it's still just near the bottom of the list for me.

And IMO the only album that really came off as a disappointment was Love songs lol My hardcore fandom died with that album.

GUILTY and NEXT LEVEL are my favorites, together with RAINBOW lol

I was disappointed when NEXT LEVEL first came out because it was so different from GUILTY and I loved GUILTY, but now I like it. There isn't an Ayu album I dislike anymore. I like them all.
