Sorrows is my fav track so far, which really has a vibe of Last minute part 2 especially the arrangement, followed by Summer diary/Sky high. Sky high is so 2000s and dunno why it reminds me of SPEED. My least fav track is Sayonara :-X

And yes, old ayu is back!

I discovered the album entirely here (except Step by Step), i'm so ashamed because i cried like a baby at the beginning of Sayonara because it just sounded so good hahaha. I'm finishing playing Sky High and i think i'll go back to Sayonara real quick

Is it a Mandolin in Shape of love? That bridge <3 Sorrow's bridge is awesome too <3

Sky high sounds so HAL and anime, I loved it.

Flawless mini album.

Sky High is my favorite by a lot! I think Sorrows might be my least favorite (mostly due to her voice being too upfront), but the bridge is awesome.

This album is impeccable. I couldn't be happier with how it sounds. Sorrows is amazing. The bridge reminds me a lot of count down since it has scratching in it as well. Shape of love is my favorite song on the mini, and probably my favorite song from Ayu since November. Sky high is another uplifting track like Step by step, but it feels much more like "organic Ayu."

All these songs, aside from Step by step and Sayonara take me back to other eras in Ayu's discography. Summer diary is (miss)understood/Secret; Shape of love is LOVEppears/Duty; Sky high and Sorrows are Memorial address/MY STORY. One could argue that Step by step is LOVE again/A ONE and Sayonara is Colours.

Anyway, this album really is a celebration of Ayu's career in my opinion.
Step by step - 8
Summer Diary - 9.5
Sayonara - 9
Sorrows - 9.5
Shape of love - 10
Sky high - 8

I have just listened to Sorrows and i am totally blown away... really strong track both musically and lyrically.
Shape of love - pretty, feel like end of summer really.
Sky high has a nice refreshing feeling. So sad this mini is...mini ^^

wow, Shape of Love is absolutely gorgeous! The preview didn't do it any justice! I'm absolutely in love with it!

Sorrows. That song absolutely KILLED ME. It's absolutely breathtaking! I'm blown away. This song should have had a PV.

Sky high. I'm still loving the chorus! ^_^

Man i know taste is taste but this album is out of this world for me. It's like the best of the best! Whomever says that this sounds cheap........you need to get your opinion together lol

Wow! Shape of love was the biggest surprise of this mini album. It didn't stand out much to me from the preview, but the song in full is beautiful.. I got goosebumps. It might even be my favorite now. My favorites on the album are Sorrows, Shape of love, and Sayonara <3. The rest I like, but they're just good songs, nothing that wowed me like the others. Sky high is probably my least favorite, it bored me.

Shape of Love preview definitely did not do the whole song justice AT ALL. Holy crap the song is gorgeous. DEFINITELY my favourite alongside Summer diary. I'm really enjoying this mini album! Good job Ayu.
