Ivy is a masterpiece. Its the only song I really, really liked in the Love Again album. Everything else was fine. Just fine.

Gloria is best from LOVE again. The "hopeful determination" emotion that comes across is just so strong. The attitude with which Ayu sings, oozes "optimism." I felt that from the very first listen, even when the preview surfaced. I love it for being able to capture that emotion so well, and convey it regardless of language and even lyrics.

I love it. It's very "hold your head high and march forward."

I'm sorry, but both Ivy and Gloria are the epitome of boring midtempo Ayu songs to me...

I always forget about those songs because after untitled for her... story 2 I zone out completely from the album lol I'll have to listen to those two on their own and not as part of a whole.

I thought everyone hated Gloria but Zeke has found the reverse black sheep of LOVE again.
I actually agree with everything you said. It's a very optimistic song.

I think the complete opposite: the best two songs on LOVE again.

I always wonder why almost everyone here loves Ivy, because I just can't stand this song, haha xD
I wanted to give it a try a couple of times but it's just meh... While today I think the verses aren't that bad anymore, my ears still bleed during the chorus x_x

BTW, too bad ayu's sound quality in every 2012 song was terrible (on both PQ and LA). It was so, idk, sharp and harsh... I always get a headache when I'm listening to them a little louder with my headphones
Funny how the same goes for Kuu's songs from that time (and in 2013)

best original song from LOVE again is untitled for her... story 2 imo, makes me cry almost everytime i hear it

... and glasses is perfection!!
