She's really focused on using the music and lyrics to convey her message this time. Without PVs and visuals whatsoever. It's as though saying, come to the tour to experience these songs. It's nice that she made the album with the tour message in mind

Thankfully, with this release, I've found that 'thing' that's been missing for me and I'm so happy that it's back. Even if in the next album this rawness is gone, at least it's come back for this album. It's cherishing, to me.

Oh lawdy. I just realized I'm blabbering like a fool. Sorry if that was random but I'm just so happy with this album. I really am.
This post is everything ♥

The chorus of Summer Love makes me think of 80's jpop. Something like Seiko Matsuda or Akina Nakamori. Its like they mixed current EDM with old jpop style.

Whoever was in charge of Summer Love really know what they were going for. I feel like each track on this album had a very specific purpose.

Summer Love is really catchy. Mr. Darling kind of reminds me of Out of control, maybe it's the instrumental part that makes me think of it. I like it more with each listen.

^This! A ONE was a pleasant album for me, Ayu coming back to her delicate roots. This one is real experimenting with powerful stuff. And i really am hit with survivor positively, this song is strong. Others as well Great tunes, so new yet with classic Ayu feel.

Hopefully the physical album will get more songs...10 is kinda short..although it's contain 9 new songs...and hopefully one more PV to make it three...

so what's your guess of the song that will get PV? I think you are the only one will get PV..and another one between FLOWER or Survivor, could be Summer love as well.

I think she really nailed it post-"reset". It feels like the early 2000s Ayu a bit, but with more confidence than ever before.

FLOWER and You are the only one are my bets.

FLOWER is the only one I am really sure about however. (LOL at my wording..)

Well, 8 fresh tracks with 4 interludes wouldn't be that out of the norm. They basically just dropped the interludes and threw in an intro.

I'm in shock... This album is so so so good!!! Ayu, thank you for surprised me!!!
I'm so happy to hear so many pop/rock songs!!
But I think the most original is Survivor.
I'll write a more detailled review later!

I just listened to the higher quality rip and WHAT a difference it makes! It really takes Mad World and Survivor from boring to luscious.

The guitar string at the beginning of Mr. Darling kinda reminds me of an ayu's old song, Key ~eternal tie ver.~
