Well I get your point but I'm more that person for Rock influenced music so if I would choose after that it wouldn't be We are the QUEENS! Of course I like other genres too like pop and many others but what I try to say is that I don't like We are the QUEENS more because it's 'totally pop' but also because of it's epic intro. But I agree with you that it's hard to compare them. :/

Yeah, I get you, I'm also more attracted to her rock (well pop/rock) style but sometimes her pop songs are way better, but at the end that's the cool thing about Ayu, she has so many styles, you can go from ballads to really dance pop and then for a more rock song, it's pretty cool

i think ayu is too diverse to compare such different tracks of hers. we are the queens is j-pop 1-0-1 while flower is more rock. If we had a ballad instead, most of the people would argue that it is a ballad and they are too apart, so for me, its very hard to compare those songs. what i can say is that i prefer flower and madworld to we are the queens without saying i dont love it.

ayu has been on fire lately, im really happy with her stuff and how she is presenting herself. even the story with the divorce is not THAT much on focus. keep fighting ayu, this is what you have always done!

Btw did I miss something or did the Clash of Queens 30 secs CM on YouTube suddenly boomed after the release of We are the QUEENS!? I know it had many views before (can't remember how many tbh) but now it has so much like Ayu's more famous today as some maybe think just not that popular. I'm just so surprised!

So yeah this song is a masterpiece. Often with her music lately it's like "this song is great but would be better if ______". This song is perfect in every way.

It's basically the same trash one can read on girlschannel. No wonder AVEX doesn't allow likes/dislikes and comments on Ayu videos, she's so hated.

Well, yeah. I couldn't help replying some of this comments.
What irritates me the most is when people call her old. That's so stupid on so many levels. Japanese people age slowly, 38 is not old at all, especially when someone looks so young and fresh like her. She might be using high quality collagen and other beauty supplements, who cares, but she ain't old.
What's wrong with getting older anyway? Japanese are obsessed with cutesy and Ayu is still cute.

She wouldn't be considered old if she kept her music fresh.

I decided not to get hurt by those comments anymore and not to get into any argument about it. Haters gonna hate no matter how good she looks, sings, performs, do... That's a fact. It's not up to me decide if she's old or not. Let Ayu and everyone else be who they want to be. Happiness and self confidence is ageless and shouldn't be something to be pointed out as bad.

I'm really anxious to watch her performing this song. <3 Hope it becomes a classic track in her concerts.

I guess another problem is that many young people consider her as old because their favourite artist is in their twenties or at least that's what I often noticed.

^ And Japan pop culture these days is obsessed with prepubescent girls which still creeps me out and makes me cringe. I just think it's pathetic people waste so much time hating on her. Have they no actual interest in which to put that energy into?
