this is my review.
RnRC is not my most favorite album which I used to think I would. This is my third most favorite album after NL and GUILTY. RnRC is kinda boring to me. But the messages are there. And I can feel how Ayu feel (at least is what I feel). The songs are not so amusing. So far, I love Microphone, SLT, Lady Dynamite. The ballad songs like Sunset, BALLAD and YW... are my favorite too. meaning of LOVE and RED LINE ~for TA~ are the most boring one. But I do feel what she wants to tell us. idk why, although they're the most boring one, but I always repeat the songs again and again. The interlude, I never pay attention to that. But I think, Jump! is the best That's all. Thank you |

you don't. but i consider don't look back and red line ballads. a ballad doesn't have to be a slow, orchestrated, deeply emotional song. and ok yes, there are 1 or 2 non rock/ballad type songs, but over all there aren't enough rock songs to consider this album rock and roll, and there aren't enough goofy, crazy songs like slt to consider it a circus.

I pretty much love everything about RnRC. The tour (which looks so awesome), the merchandise, the photoshoots... everything but the album sadly. LOL. I gave a more detailed review in the NL vs. RnRC thread but I'm too lazy to copy and paste so I'll just sum it all up and say:
--Too many ballads (I have no idea why she called this album Rock n Roll Circus when this is the least rock album she's done in years. I think she just liked the name lol O.O). --Very few interesting tracks (Microphone, DLB, LD, and SLT being the only ones I still listen to). --Weak and forgettable interludes --Sunrise/Sunset... sometimes albums help me appreciate and even sometimes change my opinion of a single completely. I like Sunset a bit more but I still can't stand Sunrise so needless to say, this was not the case this time. XD -- The album as a whole was just soooo boring. XD I can't stress this enough. Even more so than GUILTY which was my least favorite album until this one, lol.

I thought everybody would get this by now. We're not supposed to take the title literally. The songs themselves don't sound rockish or circusy but that wasn't the point. Ayu herself explained the meaning behind the title in her magazine interviews.
Misa-chan has done a great job in translating them so you guys should really read them, then surely you won't be complaining that this album isn't "rock" or "circus" enough. Quote:

I didn't like the album, but I don't think it has anything to do with the number of ballads or rock numbers... o.O
A Song for XX has 6 ballads (of 16 songs) LOVEppears has 7 ballads (of 17 songs) Duty has 6 ballads (of 12 songs) I am... has 5 or 7 depending on what u consider a ballad (of 16 songs) RAINBOW has 5 ballads (of 16 songs) Memorial Address has 4 ballads (of 8 songs) My Story has 8 ballads (of 17 songs) (miss)understood has 6 ballads (of 16 songs) Secret has 4 ballads (of 14 songs) Guilty has 4 ballads (of 14 songs) NEXT LEVEL has 3 ballads (of 14 songs) Rock n Roll Circus has 6 ballads (of 15 songs) from 1/3 to 1/2 of all of her albums are made of ballads... So... Ayu is having tons of ballads per album for a while now =) (not even counting the rock numbers... she is having songs with rock elements since Duty on several degrees of "rockness" to it) |

she understands its not typical rock. she understands it may not flow well at first hear. but that why her interviews were important as is trying to truly understand the whole meaning of the album. . however some people just look at the basic simplistic surface and base (supposedly well thought out) opinions off of that nevertheless i still love this album. even more that i thought i did. LD, SLT, Microphone, count down, Sunrise, Yw/B. i just adore the most. and DLB is great too. . .and montage Last edited by primavera♥; 15th June 2010 at 09:08 PM. |

My opinions are simple; This new album of Ms Hamasaki had totally refreshen the image and impression of myself towards her. Since RnRc meant so much message from part of her life, it's one of a precious stuff I've collected so far...
