I STILL don't remember the melody for beloved. I think this is the first time this has ever happened with an Ayu song for me.

I'm surprised by the emotions she put into this song. Her vocal improved a lot!!! It's easy to listen to. I like the song!

When the first time I listen to this song, I don't really like it because it's too slow. But after a couple of times listening to it, it grows on me every time I listen to it. And now I already played the song for almost the whole day xP

Overall one of the worst songs she's ever done. Gorgeous vocals couldn't save the soulless melody and boring arrangement. Also read the lyrics and they sound like they were written by a pre-pubescent girl...

I have to say that I don't think it's very special... yet. It sounds like any other ayu ballad..
I'm really hoping it'll grow on me, and that the orchestra ver. will be amazing

I think it's one of those songs like Sunset where I'll listen to it while relaxing and it'll sound amazing.

As soon as it started and got into the first chorus I thought that maybe it would take the same path as "Curtain Call" and build up gradually with only simple vocal and string arrangements, but instead it turned out like a million other generic ballads.

I've heard three songs off of this album so far and I don't like any of them

Okay, it's pretty, and the instrumentation and melody are nice but... god. These ballads are a dime a dozen. They'd be so much better and easier to like if they were more rare.

Such a generic Jpop ballad. I don't know why Ayu feels the need to put them in everything like Paula Deen with butter.

Its OK. Very generic sounding for her, bit dissapointed as she rarely makes a bad ballad.
