It's definitely,

Virgin Road > Crossroads > Sweet Season > Blossom > 7 days war > Moon >>> Last Angel.

The difference between Moon and Last Angel is huge, whereas the others are very close to each other.

I'm downloading now, but first thing I saw as Last Angel ranked last. Then I see it's ranked first by a lot of people. I'm very curious now.

I dunno how you can dislike LA
I can understand to be told "It's okay, nothing special" cause i felt that in 1st listening.

But there was so many peeps calling for a fast song, and there is so many peeps that dislike it! ;D Ahs is weird sometimes ;D

Now i need a fast rock angry/happy song and I'll be very very happy ^^ I'm happy for the single, but i really dislike Sweet Season, it's BORING. I know this song it's not bad (i can appreciate the arragment etc) but IM SO TIRED of songs like that. Very very tired.
Even if i would dislike LA i would still be like "at last!" She didn't have that song since Sparkle.

I know it's too soon to judge (We don't have VR pv full and almost nothing from SS pv) but overral i can tell that I'm happy.
I really liked L covers, I LOVE the amout of promotion (magazines mostly, i love when there is so many scans, i can make graphics like crazy) I started to LOVE Last Angel, i really likes Virgin Road, the pv looks amazing for it, and Sweet Season even if i don't like the song - looks kinda pretty. So I'm happy (:

honestly, my ranking will probably change day to day or week to week as with ayu songs there are always parts of a song i get into now and then that make me prefer a song over another, but for now mine goes like this.

crossroad > Last Angel > Virgin Road > Sweet Season > MOON > blossom > SEVEN DAYS WAR

the new album is shaping up to be amazing, and in each new song i can notice just how much her voice is improving. i'm really proud of her.

I'm not into electric/dance/trance songs. I also like Sparkle least out of the NL singles. And I love ballads, so I was expecting more ballad songs. I listen to ayu's ballads because they're subtle, emotional, and heartfelt.

Some people prefer certain types of songs and vice versa. That's way opinions are a good thing.

Ok well Last Angel is nice - I wish the synths were stronger. Reminds me of m.o.v.e

However, if she was going to do a trancey-ish song - she could have done much better. But I'll take what we got and force myself to it. I just hope there is more of this style on the next album.

YAY I thought I was the only one to think about m.o.v.e ! I like the speed, and weirdly, I would say "Last angel" is a trance-ballad.

To me, Last Angel and virgin road are a crossovers of her old songs and B'z!

L is the best single of 2010 above all other by miles for me.

Last angel is one of the most amazing songs ever, it's like a toned down trance song and the melody is so beautiful, and I tried to figure out the lyrics just from listening and I think I'm gonna dig it (the lyrics) and not just the song endlessly.
Virgin Road is one of ayu's best ballads by far, I love that the climax is found at the ending it really fits there, and it's just beautiful.
Sweet Season - It's very sweet and kind of laid back, it gives a warm feeling when listening to it and it's not cute-hideous!

One of ayu's best created singles imo, hands down ayu, that's how a 50th single should exactly be like, song by song.

Actually, Last angel reminds me of globe, and since TK is the mastermind behind the band... It sounds more like something keiko would sing.

I died of happiness when I first hear Last Angel!! At first I thought "hmm another ballad", and after the intro I started yelling to my friend "OMG IT'S TRANCE OMG"

Amazing

Last Angel > Virgin Road >>>>>>>>>>> xroad - SDW >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>*add another million*>>>>>>> sweet season
