Anyway, I'm anticipating an awesome setlist for the tour! OMG an entire ballad section (perhaps of Return Road, Letter, reminds me and Tell me why) with more singing and less-to-no crying would be fantastic. FANTASTIC I TELL YOU.

^ ballads? the only ballad I can hear there without hbya, it's Letter, but it's still not the generic Ayu ballad. xD

[TeamAyu2004]

I already dont like the two jazz tracks, so thats a minus for me... But, HBYR is amazing, so I think I might listen through to get to that track!

i would consider all the rock songs something along the lines of a rock ballad...
but not the typical ayumi ballad true. more like because of You

I consider the songs from taskebab until a cup of tea somewhat ballads. What's generic ayu-ballad, by the way? I'm definitely getting some 'classic' ayu-ballad-vibes from reminds me, Return Road and Tell me why (although now we've established that Tell me why is a cover, but I suppose it still counts as an ayu-ballad now that she's the one singing it).

Some of these songs just feel...at home

And whoa

I can't wait to hear that line in NaNaNa.

So she's being explicit about the whole sad party queen thing. These little details are killing me.

I think when some people say "generic" ballads its the same as what some people find as classic ayumi ballads...
I love them, but sometimes I want something more.

I think ayu just answered your prayers via the next LOVE and Eyes, Smoke, Magic

[xLuna&1LOVE]

I failed resisting.


I have already my favourites. They are between taskebab and cup of tea

[HanabiChick]

Listened to the previews, and I liked everything after taskebab. I've heard the full radio leak of Party queen, it didn't grab me as it's the type of song I don't like, and the same with what little I heard of NaNaNa and Shake It♥. Everything after that I liked, and I'm looking forward to hearing the full versions of those.

[Griz Lee]

This album is just EPIC .really like all the songs and serenade suprised me ...i think, its the best iinterlude in the album

[pepper]

My friend who is not an Ayu fan just told me (I forced her to listen to the previews) that she loves... Party queen. She told me "All I can see that I am dancing on the table and everyone is singing the chorus with me" <3

GIVE.ME.THE.LEAK.

[freedreamer]

anyone thinks its advisable to start listening the album from the back onwards..
13&14
10-12
so on..
im afraid of ending up dissing the back tracks after hearing the power in front lol

[Lady_Eowyn]

Spoiler:

Our prayers were finally heard...more rock and nomedium tempoballads! *________*

I'll wait till i get my album anyway, i'm really excited!

[truehappiness]

She did have like two albums of ballads/medium tracks so... rock was bound to come soon after that, haha.

You're Party Queen.
I'm a lonely Queen.

I can't wait to hear that line in NaNaNa.

This is from NaNaNa's lyrics? Never saw it anywhere, i may have missed something i guess .0.

[TeamAyu2004]

i noticed that she does rock when she is "down" in terms of life...
and ballads when she is happy.. lol

[ayu_ready?]

from the previews

I like NaNaNa & Shake it
Letter is typical & call is typical too
I don't like reminds me
Return Road is epic to me already
Tell me why is really sad, a big + from me
the NEXT LOVE sounds weird somehow, only after the 3d listen I was able to understand it is 'musicalesque'. do not like it,though. nothing beats Pride
Eyes, Smoke, Magic I never believed she'd do that! shocked.

but why her vocal sounds strained..?

[douggn]

I could see Eyes, Smoke, Magic getting used in front of Sexy little things in a concert. Going to be fun subbing Return Road I Think Return Road and NaNaNa could be my favorite from PQ

[truehappiness]

Someone who went to the showing mentioned a few lyrics and You're a Party Queen/I'm a lonely Queen was one of the lyrics that showed up. It seems that they showed the songs along with a projector that showed the lyrics as the songs played.
