It's boring, bland, uninspired and forgettable. I know not every song needs to be as epic as Mirrorcle World or Last Angel before anyone suggests that. I don't really have a big urge to listen to Why or Beloved ever again. Where as Ayu songs are always something I'll listen to repeat for a while when they leak.

I like it, but it's the kind of song that I'll listen to for 2 weeks or so and then forget it even existed XD

Maybe I am too soon saying this, but I don't like the three songs which leaked from her new album and that's why I lost interest in the upcoming mini-album. Sorry, Ayu. Hopefully the other two songs will blow me away, but I am afraid so. Last edited by xLuna&1LOVE; 21st August 2011 at 12:32 PM.

It's not a bad song. Though I think it's a very typical song.
I thought that maybe the fact it's a collaboration would shake it up a bit but obviously my expectations were too high. I don't even mind the fact Ayu overpowers Juno vocally, I was just hoping for something very different this time. It's good. I just hope that this track is the weakest link on FIVE because I loved progress and beloved.

 I feel like Why... is just another example of how her discography has become so watered down with bland tracks over the past few years.I actually liked the song the first few times I listened to it, and then I realized it was, as you said, boring, bland, uninspired, and forgettable. And seriously, why is she singing like that. She sounds so weird.

And she's "singing like that" because she finally learned to sing again. She actually has vocal technique in this. Her early vocals were destroying her voice and her ~2006-2010 vocals often included lots of screaming.

People act like all her ballads before 2006 or something were super unique and amazing. Like Dearest, I do love the song but it's generic as hell....just like this.

God this album is shaping up to be such a BOMB with the fans. Well here you go, all the people who hoped and prayed for a mini-album, here it is. Happy now? We get 5 songs with possibly 2 wowing tracks and not even THAT wowing. I have yet to hear it and I think I'll like this album but I do believe this is a huge mistake in Ayu's career to release a mini-album like this at this time.

^ Same.
It was fine for me until the horrible harmony of "why" at the end. That right there ruined the song for me.

I love the arrangement!! Hooked to this song alr.
I like the part where she sang 'kikoete iru yo' and 'sutete shimae ba'.. sounds like a typical ayu backing vocal used for her instrumentals.

I like it. It's better than dream ON. Ayu's voice is pretty. I like when they sing together in the verses. The two voice blend perfectly. I would like to hear it in live to know how it sounds. I would like to wait a better quality because some part of the arrangements (that seems really pretty) are covered by a ch-ch noise (can't say it very well).
So my final view with the cd rip in 320kbps or when I'll listening my copy!

Did any one really think this was going to be Memorial Address part II?
 Did people really think if Ayu focused on fewer songs they would all be of the utmost superior quality to their liking?  I guess this is what happens when you get what you wished for LOL. I, for one, am not completely thrilled about beloved or Why..., Progress is still good and there's hope for BRILLIANTE but who knows, maybe one day this album will turn into a fan favorite like the rest of them lol.

It's actually pretty nice. Her vocals might sound bland with this new technique direction--heck I dislike them when I hear them--but I think she decided to start from scratch vocally so her new sound is not what we are used to.
Later she would refine her voice and eventually greatness will entail again. I just hope the on the next album Ayu reaches her newfound potential.

who says anyone is surprised by the boring, generic song. People are just saying how they feel. Don't have a cow people.
