I don't really hear the "this is recent Ayu" either. If anything it sounds more like recent Ayu trying to be early 00s Ayu.

I feel like WORDS is quite a good mix of the sounds of A Song for xx and sixxxxxx. I really enjoy the song.

I can probably agree about LOVE again. I just can't with A ONE or MIJ, and it's even a bit of a stretch for sixxxxxx. The closest comparable thing on sixxxxxx is Shape of Love, and that wasn't as much of a throwback in production as WORDS is. This is still a bit more similar to older Ayu than even what's on LOVE again. But I can probably agree about giving LOVE again vibes.

Yeah, I agree, I also don't hear the similarities with her recent stuff... Especially sixxxxxx, A ONE and LOVE again... They have a completely different vibe. It does remind me of Breakdown/Mad World though, but only slightly.

And I agree, it does sound like an ending theme. I like it. WORDS is a nice track that reminds me of actual Ayumi Hamasaki.
Agree!

Sounds so nostalgic, the song could fit in a few older eras like Love Songs... I could even see this song thrown between 'Will' and 'HEAVEN' on (miss)understood. Aside from not loving the cover, I'm not in love with her vocals on this track, but it is good to hear new music from her, and I love the lyrics. I can see this definitely growing on me.

After 3 listens, I'm definitely really into this track now. It does feel really nostalgic but I have trouble placing it. It just feels nostalgic but fresh still in its own way.

The lyrics to this song are some of her best of all time in my opinion.

I really like this song but after 10 or so listens I'm still struggling to remember the composition off the top of my head (does that make sense?).

It takes a while for new music to sink in.

What a lovely surprise... I haven't heard a new song from Ayu in ages! and of course, she knows exactly how to bring on them feels - I'm loving "WORDS" so much! Now I wish we had a new album or something else...we miss you, ayu!

*squints* Did she just use an Instagram photo for a cover?? Or is there going to be actual album art when playing it on a device?

Regardless, the song is very pleasant. Like when someone buys you a small, but thoughtful gift, randomly.
