Interesting tidbits: This is Ayu's second song composed by tasuku after fairyland. He's only done arrangement and interludes otherwise.

This is Mayuko Maruyama's debut with Ayu on her own after having worked with a lot of other artists like ClariS, AAA, AKB48, among others. She was formerly part of H/\L and worked on a few Ayu tracks before she started doing her own thing (fairyland, BLUE BIRD, INSPIRE, Kaleidoscope, GAME, my name's WOMEN, Replace, HONEY, glitter, talkin' 2 myself, MY ALL, reBiRTH, Days, You were..., YOU (10th anniversary) NEXT LEVEL, Pieces of SEVEN). Shun Ueno also has never worked with Ayu. I can't seem to find any previous works by Shun either, so he must be really new like Hana Nishimura for Sunrise and Sunset ~LOVE is ALL~.

So that collaboration with that DJ duo isn't a thing yet?

Yeah, I wonder what happened to the DJ duo collab, and also RedOne from last year... And I remember she also mentioned working with someone a while ago, but it never saw the light of day? I wonder if she's keeping that for some future release, or decided that she doesn't want to go in that direction anymore...

Yeah... hopefully we'll see those songs later on. It's so odd how that RedOne produced track just disappeared. sixxxxxx seemed like it was gonna be a dance mini and then we didn't get that at all, lol. I guess she changed her mind.

I want to say Summer Love was originally on sixxxxxx and Summer diary was not made until Ayu changed her mind.

Maybe RedOne did the arrangement of Summer Love (like he did it for Movin' on)?

We've also still got that Kazuhito Kikuchi song that randomly showed up (or was it the one he made for Ayu as a gift a while back?) in a blog post.

Was obviously that Timmy composed Survivor but I didn't expect that he composed You are the only one too.

About Mad World lyrics, what the hell is ツケ?

Yesssss glad to see the return of Timmy. I like a lot of his compositions. I especially love that he composed "You are the only one" because so many people hate Timmy's compositions but love this song LOL I'm glad that Ayu took a break from Tetsuya Komuro. Hope it's an extended break... also hope she never works with Shun Ueno / Mayuko Maruyama again either since I didn't care for their songs haha

I think the two new composers do very Japanese tracks, which is perfect since this is made for Japan, lol. I'd say her usual team is good at making things that have a worldwide appeal.

I didn't really like Party Queen but I can see some changes from Timmy in Survivor..

Well done. I am glad there is no TK beside Many Classic Moments. I need a break from him.

TK is wonderful for globe but his recent ballads for her are just too much I'm glad he's not in it this time. Timmy did well on Survivor

She was mainly a programmer for these.

fairyland
BLUE BIRD
INSPIRE
Kaleidoscope
GAME
my name's WOMEN
Replace
HONEY
glitter
talkin' 2 myself
MY ALL
reBiRTH
Days
You were...
YOU (10th anniversary)

Ooh Timmy did You are the only one! it kinda explains why it sounded 'unusual' and epic and I'm glad we didn't get TK as well. I hope she works with more composers in the future

I really love the composition of TODAY probably more than I liked the whole song. It just felt very fresh and was very well composed. Like, the composition was interesting and had nice moments.

I feel the same about the composition of Mad World though everything is perfect about that song lol.

I figured Timmy did you are the only one. And I'm so glad he did. It was so lovely and perfect.

Anyway I like the changeup for this album.

Nice list! Seems like some of our predictions were right. Breakdown and Shape of love coming from the same hand. And You are the only one being progressively similar to hbya. I wish Ayu experimented more with Timmy's songs. Seens like she really breaks out of her mold on tracks like Survivor and BRILLANTE. I guess he just composes such songs which are really unique for her. And glad to see some HAL work back NEED MORE. And Also with that new composer. So japanese I love it.

I have to agree with this considering Summer Love sounds incredibly similar to Jennifer Lopez's song Live It Up. The openings for both are incredibly close

^ not to mention ALOT of other western summer songs. It's an extremely common cord progression for dance pop tracks since like 2009( California Gurls)

Someone else already mentioned earlier that You are the only one was probably composed by Timmy considering it is almost identical to How beautiful you are.
