"What's a beautiful girl? What's a beautiful girl?" haha..."Every Step" sounded really pretty, despite the super mediocre lyrics...the worst was "Bold & Delicious"...that version was sorta "mellow & dull" lol. Maybe I'm judging so harshly because I just can't stand poppy voices like that anymore...it's trite now. :/

I like Ayu's verions better. But "Break Down" sounds WAY to much like Mariah Carey's song. "We Belong Together"

She has a nice voice, but it's really not my type of music. I kind of like how Ayu's vocals are more raw in her versions...that and I'm not really feeling these lyrics/beats. But thanks.

Edit: I liked. I like Every Step and Beautiful Girl.

Oh my god, these are so... bland & unfinished sounding next to ayu's stuff. Like these could possibly be the very demos ayu heard. Seriously. SO incomplete sounding. Man. These are such a great example of why I like jpop better than western music... western music has this feel way more often than it should. I'll be honest, "pride" and "every step" weren't AWFUL... but the rest were. B&D especially, it sounded really clumsy.

^It's not out yet, nor has it been leaked.
@Chris, I can send you their albums via PM if you'd like. Don't be fooled by this album's quality, their earlier albums are splendid pieces.

Meh, I was expecting more from Sweetbox... All the songs sound so plain... I loved the best of, I was thinking that this would be good as well. Must wait for the rest, I guess!
