Your Top Ayumi albums??
 

So i was surfing youtube and came across these!




I just want to know peoples opinion on this and what they think is the order it should be.

By no means is this official or down through anybody, this is just two peoples opinion.

I for one dont agree with it at all.
Seriously... GUILTY is her number 1 album??? lol...
OKay, done.
And FIVE or Party Queen are not on this.

Whoever made these could have fit both videos into a three minute video if they hadn't played samples of almost every album track. :dead2 But, anyways...

I agree with some of their rankings and some I disagree with. I think placing GUILTY and Love songs high up in the rankings is good, but placing Duty in the bottom half is a mistake. Also, I don't think NEXT LEVEL should be so high up in the rankings.

This is mostly based on my personal preference, though. I don't know how I would rank the albums objectively.

I could never say I love an Ayu album THE MOST... it's like choosing your favourite child. It's weird.

Here's a list of "most favoured" to "least favoured"

EDIT: looking back at this list, I made some dumb mistakes. I moved (miss)understood up one level because of the sheer love I didn't know I had for it.
Most Favoured
1. Memorial Address
2. Secret
3. Love songs
4. RAINBOW
5. I am...
6. NEXT LEVEL
7. (miss)understood

Somewhat Favoured
1. MY STORY
2. Rock'n'Roll Circus
3. LOVEppears
4. FIVE
5. Party Queen
6. Duty

GUILTY
1. GUILTY

Least Favoured
1. A Song for XX

I wanted to put GUILTY in Least Favoured, but then it just wouldn't fit. So, it gets its own category between somewhat and least... until (IF) I grow to love it.
If I somehow forgot something, it goes with Somewhat Favoured.

As for order.... the 4 sections I gave is the order.

It's tough to choose between Ayu's albums as which are my favorites but they are:

1. Duty
2. A Song For xx
3. Rainbow
4. Love Songs
5. LOVEppears
6. Secret
7. I Am...
8. Rock n Roll Circus
9. (miss)understood
10. Party Queen

I didn't list My Story or Guilty since I don't have them yet and haven't heard them yet.

^ WHAT!?! you have heard them... omigosh! lol...

I really dont know how to list the albums... I ust know A Song for XX and GUILTY would be at the bottom of the list... the rest is kinda random on how I feel at the moment of listening to the albums... lol

My most favourited (top) to least favourited:

1. Duty
2. I am...
3. LOVEppears
4. Rainbow
5. (miss)understood/MY STORY
6. GUILTY (seriously underrated album; produced fated, Together When..., Decision, GUILTY, Marionette AND Mirrorcle World).
7. Memorial Address/Secret
8. A song for xx (lyrics are arguably the best in her discography).
9. NEXT LEVEL
10. Love songs (arguably the most overrated in her discography)
11. RnRC
12. Party Queen/FIVE

I agree with some choice, not of others. It's natural though to have differentiating tastes, for example, I will never understand Love songs' popularity over other albums such as NEXT LEVEL and GUILTY.

I don't really agree with the list in the video.

1. I am...
2. Duty
3. Loveppears
4. Love Songs
5. Secret
6. (miss)understood
7. RAINBOW
8. memorial address
9. MY STORY
10. NEXT LEVEL
11. Rock'n'Roll Circus
12. A Song for xx
13. GUILTY
14. FIVE
15. Party Queen

Ayu(1998-2010)

02. (miss)understood
03. Party Queen
04. RAINBOW
05. Memorial address
06. GUILTY
07. NEXT LEVEL
08. Secret

These are pretty much the only albums I listen to.

Absolutely love, encapsulate everything I love about Ayu, don't skip any tracks:
01. Rock'n'Roll Circus
02. (miss)understood
03. Party Queen
04. Duty
05. I am...
06. Memorial address
07. LOVEppears

Eh, overall a bit weak but some real standout work, or just well-executed even if they're not my favorites:
08. Secret
09. FIVE
10. NEXT LEVEL
11. RAINBOW
12. MY STORY
13. GUILTY

There are only 3 songs I ever really listen to on these:
14. Love songs
15. A Song for XX

The best album for me is still MY STORY!

I actually love all Ayu's albums.
But Rock'n'Roll Circus would be the least favorite album for me.

Not sure about the worst one but my ranking looks like this:

01 (miss)understood
02 Memorial address
03 Duty
04 Party Queen
05 Rock'n'Roll Circus
06 Secret
07 LOVEppears
08 RAINBOW
09 I am...
10 MY STORY
11 NEXT LEVEL
12 A Song for xx
13 FIVE
14 GUILTY

I'm totally bored with GUILTY because I overplayed it and can't listen to it anymore. FIVE is great but compared to her other albums it's not so good. I also know that I've said I don't like NEXT LEVEL or Secret that much, but lately I've found myself loving them more and more. A Song for xx would've been the last one but the lyrics really saves it for me. This album has amazing lyrics. I love them. :)

I'm a statistics nerd at times, so I took everyone's posts and ranked the albums based on all usable data so far. :)

I assigned each album a score from 1 to 15 based on its ranking (#1 albums have 15 points, #15 album has 1 point, et cetera), and then averaged the scores for each album.

I keep changing my opinion about the ones in the middle, but the ones at the top and the ones at the bottom are pretty much the same always... Anyway, I don't really care about ranking the albuns since I actually love all of them :heart

I can't make a list by myself, i can't even say which album is my fav, so i just checked my last.fm and here is the result

1. Party Queen
2. Rock'n'Roll Circus
3. Love Songs
4. FIVE (well mostly because of progress and BRILLANTE)
5. NEXT LEVEL
6. Secret
7. (miss)understood
8. GUILTY
9. MY STORY
10. I am...
11. Memorial Address
12. Rainbow
13. LOVEppears
14. Duty
15. A Song for xx

Well, it's obvious i tend to listen to her recent stuff rather than her old, haha. But I think this top is only accurate for Party Queen, R'n'R Circus, Love Songs and NEXT LEVEL though.

AND I DONT GET ALL THE HATE FOR R'N'R CIRCUS THIS ALBUM IS LIKE THE HOLY GRAIL SRSLY PEOPLE WHY YOU SO MEAN
