Does anyone NOT like "part of me" ?

lol I feel like I'm missing something here, I've heard the song, watched the PV, read the lyrics translation, and at the end...I'm still just "meh"

Why do people love this song so much? I've even forced myself to watch the PV 4-5 times, yes the imagery = purdy, symbolic, yadda yadda..but in the end, the song is just ok to me. Please tell me I'm not the only one that feels this way! And I'm not just a fair weathered fan, I love Ayu to the core!

*ponders* maybe I downloaded a spoilt version?

Just like her recent releases, I don't like the song much. But I like the PV I think my biggest problems with her recent songs is that you always hear like a little chrous singing with her, compared to her old songs, where you'd most hear just her one voice a little clearer.

i like the song. i mean, i've listened to it alot cuz i like the song in general. but i think it could have been a better ballad, but that dosen't mean i don't like it. the song's good, just not the best song.

if you don't like it then don't. what's the point of forcing yourself to like every song of your idol releases? being a fan does not mean that you must LOVE all songs your idol releases. not every song is perfect too.

i was obsessed with the preview
but when i heard the full song, i was kind of dissapointed
the preview was the only good part of the song
after the first chorus i dont like it much, esp the ending
would have been better if it carried on like how the first chrous ended
but that happens with most of her ballads anyways

The song could have been like, 394823 times better. It seems she uses the same background music for her ballads, though each with different (and extremely catchy)melodies. However, I do love the song and ADORE the pv to it's very core. <3 It's not a new favorite of mine, but it's definitely a lovely song!

I think it's a pretty song but it's not going to go down as one of her 'greats'. It sounds too similar to other songs she's done and imo lacks that special something that songs like evolution and M have.

He's just curious. To be honest, I am too. I have only listened to the really crappy preview that popped up first only one time and I am waiting until I get my copies of A BEST 2 to hear it again and to see the PV. In a sense, we all care what other people think of Ayu's songs/CDs, or what would be the point in posting the sales of Secret and (miss)understood so often?
