Party Queen in retrospect
 

Almost 6 months later, have you changed your opinion on the album? The most frustrating thing about the whole thing for me is the missed opportunity that is the Return Road PV...so badly paced and directed.

Not really.

Although I remember feeling that it was much more listenable then than it is now.

Maybe I just got over it. I don't know. None of it is on my playlist.

I still think it is an excellent album with an recognizable/understandable concept. The only thing that has changed for me is that, when in first came out, I listened to it so much that now I can't listen to it at all, haha.

I used to only listen to reminds me, Return Road, and Tell me why

Now it's just reminds me and Return Road. The rest of the album...I've never cared much about and looks like I still don't.

:yes Now my mind is clear

I like the album, but now i think is just OK, now call and Letter sounds boring, the cabaresque songs are horrible and hbya is generic as hell.
The only good interlude is taskebab, the other 2 interludes, now for me are bad IMO

I still have my favorites that I listen to... Like "Tell me why" and "Letter". :) But I hardly listen to the album itself nowadays.

NaNaNa, Tell me why and Return Road can stay. Shake It and Party Queen should have never been restored from Ayu's Next Level demo recycle bin. Call and Letter are pretty inoffensive but I can't really remember how they go and don't care to listen to them. The next love and Eyes, Smoke, Magic...not cute..don't know what Ayu was thinking. How Beautiful You Are though very corny is nice.

Only songs I listen to regularly from PQ are Party Queen, NaNaNa, Tell me why, the next LOVE, and how beautiful you are. I honestly forget how the other songs go tbh lmao

And I STILL hate Shake It♥ with a passion

Right after the album leaked, I listened to it nonstop. Day and night, it was... well, impressive, I guess. I listened to the album so many times in a very short period of time. It's the only album that I've ever listened to so... well, 'obsessively'. After a month or so, I stopped 'obsessing' over it and now I play it casually.
It's an alright album. It's NOT her best. Not her worst either. It doesn't deserve the hate that it gets. Neither does it deserve glowing praise. But I'm glad that I bought it.

It'll be remembered for the ****y covers, though. And an iffy ballad *sniff* (HBYA).

Still among my favorite^^

i only like a couple tracks, but that's it. i don't really listen to the whole album, lol.

I used to listen to a few songs off the album when it first came out. Now I only listen to Return Road. The album is really, really weak.

I still like.
still loath. ESM and the next love.

"how beautiful you are" and "Letter" are the only two songs from that album I'm listening to.

Thrashed it when it came out, listened to it a couple of times before/after seeing her live in July, now I don't listen to it all. Perfectly natural for me - no indication that I now hate the album, I'm just over the songs.

If you listened to the album constantly when it came out, and now you don't, how does that mean you hate it? Clearly there was some level of enjoyment when the songs were new and fresh to you.

I still do my best in trying to pretend that it doesn't exist.

No, I'm still don't like this album until today

But the main reason is her voice getting worse :grumpy

Still a solid 7/10 in my book, I constantly going back to the first 6 tracks.

I mostly listen to reminds me. Sometimes RR, but Timmy's moaning ruins it. Sometimes Tell me why. Idk, it's not very strong album.. And the covers really don't help it

second this, I've completely stopped listening to it, I've gone back to love songs and FIVE (and that's hilarious I'd rather listen to FIVE than Party Queen).
Like NEXT LEVEL, Party Queen hasn't left anything.
