Lol.

Haven't listened to the full version yet. But, if she was going to try something electronic and trancy for the Summer - I wish she had done it right. It just makes me all the more mad that she did it all wrong!

Listening now:

I don't think her voice is bad. Yeah the English and maybe the verses aren't wonderful, but her voice in the chorus is nice. Also, there is now real power to the song. The chorus removes like all the bass. And those "whoa-whoa"s are just terrible. Whoever said they are like glitter is mental. Lol... glitter's are much better, these just suck and come out of nowhere.

I don't actually have an issue with that aspect of it. When it comes to anything with strong electronic influence, I'm usually quite picky and the arrangement for whatever reasons can ruin a song and use of the style can be so annoying sometimes

But I really like it in the song. It's easy for me to listen to here. It's fun, it just makes me wanna dance.

I don't know if I can find anything I dislike about the song, and I love it way more than I thought I would. And even more than some past summer songs, really that are on this ASB release like Greatful Days and BLUE BIRD and such. That's how I feel.

I love the full version. I can see this becoming a concert staple song. :laugh

I wouldn't mind it being a concert staple if Greatful Days was erased from history for it.

The full version is definitely better. The rhymes tend to be annoying and I dunno something bugs me, but deffo not as much as the short version did.

After hearing the WHOLE version, I must say... I LOVE IT!! This is one of the summer song that I will jam everywhere!! XD

I've listened to it a few times now and I have to say, her voice is really grating and just sounds whiny to me. Not gonna be listening to this, like, ever lol but ah well. Waiting for the next proper release~

i think it's really catchy. Especially the chorus i keep randomly singing it in my head out of nowhere xD plus I think she sounds really good, i like her voice! Tho it's not gonna be a song i would keep listening xD

I dunno the full version isn't as beat heavy as the first version

tbh I dunno maybe it is my ears but I like it wayyyyyyyy more

I hate songs like Namie's Naked that just had wayyy too much beats and breaks

The arrangement is good and had potential to make it a powerful dance song...the composition is what really lacks here...I don't feel a summer energy here, just an attempt of turning a (very) cliche anime opening track into a failed rival of "We Found Love". Both songs are repetitive but WFL at least makes you feel like kicking the dust out of the floor and has a good build up and delivers it well with the chorus...You & Me doesn't, and has the common bad jpop habit of attaching pieces, being the verses one song and the chorus a completely different song. Also, there are parts in which the song turns a bit tacky because it gets that olympics cheering "Born to be..." feel; It worked somewhat for BTB... because it was indeed adressed to olympic games but really gets quite tackey in You & Me. LOL

The non-chorus parts are kind of tacky and don't help build up to the chorus and the basic chord combination in the chorus is really cliché but it's a fun song to listen to. The ballady piano parts add emotional value to the song although it doesn't match the style at all. There is a lot of flaws in You & Me but listening to it made me happy and sad at the same time, to the point where I almost started getting teary-eyed, not even kidding! I think if the arrangement had been better, and maybe actually stuck to one style instead of trying to merge both ballad and dance, it could have made a quality song. It would be interesting to hear an acoustic orchestra version of this with piano.

I really like it - it's a fun song. Not too sure about the PV.

mi|kshake~

i have a soft spot for TK, so yeah, i enjoy because of that. :laugh

but in the overall grand picture of things, it's nothing new or fresh. it's a very standard ayu song, imho. it's fun, but i'll forget about it eventually.

cheap production and very weak to be included in A SUMMER BEST. I mean Part of Me is fabulous song to be in A BEST II -Black- so I expect the additional song for ASB must be as good as Part of me but the fact duh

^lol I thought part of me was boring. Nice song, kinda like it, never listen to it. I like You & Me a lot more

^I did too lol

I mean it's pretty...but that's about it. It gets so much love. Always makes me laugh.

that sounds so *****y :laugh

Horrible and terrible

As much credit as I TRY to give to it, I can't help but agree it's really a lackluster production and I didn't like the sound of it at all. The introduction perhaps, but once it hit the techno portion, I just couldn't help cringing. She needs to make some major revisions to the kind of people she's working with and this is definitely not cutting it.

We're not expecting her to go back to her glory days in the early 2000s but at least produce decent material that is befitting of her reputation.

I remember I liked it when it came out and was outraged at people complaining about the same old H/\L-style synth. But now, I too rarely listen to Part of me. I do find it kind of boring... Lol. Not a bad song, and I like it a lot more than the songs I dislike from Ayu. I don't know how to describe it for Part of me. I can't say lackluster as Secret and a few other songs I feel that way about but I wouldn't put Part of me in that same category. It's just, a category in it's own. Lol.

I like the chrous. It's pretty catchy n her voice definitely sounds way better in this song than on PQ. But the problem for me for her recent works since happening here n pretty much most of PQ tracks are that the arrangements lack something.
