I guess æternal is my favorite. it sounds like NOW & 4EVA and I love it. I hope miusiq posts a better rip when it's out on AM because this one is very low quality.

W and The way I am are so good. I think WORDS is still my fave as I've been listening to it a lot over the year. aeternal is nice, I still feel nothing for WATQ. I am so excited for the new songs. The girl never ceases to amaze me, as much as we tend to doubt her.

What's confusing for me is that in LINE LIVE she was like "because the upcoming tour is based on new album, of course I'll be singing a lot of new songs". I mean 5 songs aren't "a lot":-)

plus WATQ isn't new at all and she performed it at TeamAyu tour and CDL, WORDS were performed a lot during JTB
So it's only 3 new songs

while I like all the new songs, the order of the track list is a little bit weird to me. I always feel it's more intuitive to group the more rockish/upbeat songs and then transition as smoothly as possible to the slower/more laid-back ones. that's certainly not the case here. oh well. I notice this in some of her other albums as well.

apart from that, this is a very decent album.

The way I am the the best imo
It sounds the most, complete?

W is a bit messy for my taste. It’ll grow on me I’m assuming.

aeternal is interesting. Seems more raw and less perfected which I kind of like

She usually picks the song order based on the lyrics...

I tried not to download and instead patiently wait until my CD arrives to listen but I can never control myself when this woman releases something. I love all three of the new songs especially W (my jam! ) and aeternal!

01. We are the QUEENS
As trashlicious as ever. Ayu's Pop Diva! xD

02. æternal
Sounds like half of her summer singles, but I'm in love with the bridge.

03. WORDS
I didn't remember how this one sounded like. It's GORGEOUS! The chorus OMG!

04. W
Hi Shiina Ringo! What are you doing here in Ayu's album? :V Really loved this one too.

05. The way I am
I had already liked this one from the a capella live. Still loving it.

Overall, I'm satisfied. Better than Sixxxxxx for me.

I'm really pleased with the new EP. As much as I wanted 5 new songs, I really like that We are the QUEENS and WORDS got a physical release. Especially We are the QUEENS since it is such a good song. I also feel that it sounds better here, but maybe it is because I was excited.
I really like the attitude in W. I hope she opens her a-nation show with it or WATQ.
aeternal sounds like momentum summer ver. which is a good thing.
The way I am is nice too but I really liked the version that they did live.

TROUBLE is really good. I was kinda surprise with W. I thought it would have been as her other pop-rock songs but W is truly Jrock sound not pop-rock. The rhythm and the melodies are different from her songs (except the la la wo oh part that is so Ayu). I can't wait to read the translation of the lyrics.

The way I am is sooo good and the arrangement is somewhat new. There is this usual vibe that Ayu conveys with this kind of sounds but here and there you can hear little pearl of melodies. I'm glad that Ayu chose to sing a ballad for this title and not a pop rock melody such as WARNING because It really defines our Ayu. Our ballad girl who love us and who want to follow her path with people who want her as she is. That's why an angry song wouldn't fit this emotion. Ayu is a woman of love. ♥

aeternal surprised me by it's raw and deep voice. It's not my favourite song of the album but it's the kind of song that can grow on me.
