Haha. Well, LOVEppears is my 2nd least favorite album (along with MY STORY), I am... being my 1st. I'll give a detailed one for I am... and then just say that I don't like LOVEppears because
almost every song sounds the same to me. 
I am...- I actually really like this song. I used to hate it when I first got the CD, but it's grown on me. It's just so unique; I've never heard another song like it. The whole concept is very original. 4.5/5
Opening Run- Meh, it's okay. Definitely a great prelude to Connected, but I just don't think it's anything special.
2/5
Connected- Sorry, guys, I can't stand this song. The entire song sounds like the rhythm and beat are on constant repeat with no variation to me. I mean seriously, spice it up a bit. Change the beat.
1.5-2/5
UNITE!- I've got nothing against UNITE! except that I think it's oversung at her concerts. I get sick of it easily. :/ I do love the verses, though. Adore them, actually. Shame that I can't stand the chorus. XD 3.5-4/5
Evolution- Love it! That's all I have to say. It's a fan favorite and for good reason.
5/5
Naturally- Reminds me too much of Connected. Too much techno for my taste. It's okay, though. I really like the verses and the chorus is very strong. So I like the beat of the singing, I just can't stand the background music. :/ It's really a hard mix for me as to whether or not I like it. 3.5-4/5
NEVER EVER- Very original, I'll give it that. And whatever it is that makes that weird 'ding DING, DING ding' sound is awesome. Great chorus, too. But for some reason I just don't find it memorable. I don't know why. All the songs are starting to blur together at this point. :/ 3/5
Still Alone- Boring verses. Neat chorus, but she's starting to repeat all her cool background music at this point. All those little 'dinggy' noises in the background are all starting to sound the same. A little variety wouldn't hurt. :/ 2.5/5
Daybreak- I just get so bored with the chorus. It's like...quiet, then BOOM!! And people complain about Free and Easy.
And her voice in the chorus gets to me after a while. Actually, I'm starting to see a trend in her song patterns. They all start out quiet then all of a sudden, BOOM! at the chorus. :/ 1.5/5
Taskinluge- Haha. Best track on the album. XD Ok, ok. Right after M and Evolution. But this is more like the type of music I like.
Remind anyone else of her Secret album? 5/5
M- Pure awesome. Her emotion in it gets me every time. I can get so wrapped up in the last chorus sometimes.
5/5
A song is born- Again, I'm feeling the same pattern going on. And it's just really missing something to give it a punch. It's just so...plain. :/ What can I say? XD 1.5/5
Dearest- I don't think it's as wonderful as all the Inu Yasha fans make it out to be, but I do really like it. I mostly like it because of the PV, though. It really gives an image and face to it. It makes you see the emotion in it. 4/5
No more words- I have absolutely no idea why, but I REALLY like this ballad. XD It's very fresh. And different from the rest of the songs. 4.5/5
Endless Sorrow- Literally up until about a week ago I hated this song with a passion. It was just so...calm. O_o I don't know the word. I love calm, but it was just boring at the same time. Now I just find it as so inspirational, carrying of emotion and meaning, and it reminds me of the wind. A good song to listen to on a lazy, sunny Sunday.
4/5
Flower Garden- Haha, okay, so this is one of my favorite peppy songs. XD I have no idea what it's doing on this album, though. I feel like it's a Duty/LOVEppears rollover. It should have come right after Audience on Duty. I especially love the weird rap she does in the middle of the song. XD 4.75/5
Okay, so overall, not doing an average, just what I think of it as a whole, it'd be a 6/10. It's just that almost every song has the exact same pattern (quiet, quiet, calm, relatively steady beat, then BOOOOOOOM!!! Chorus!!!), and they all have the same like...what's the word?...Rhythm? Beat? Flow? Composition? They all just sound the same to me. I may have been like, 'I like this and this song' while I was listening to it, but I forget what they sound like immediately after I listen to it. That just goes to show you how memorable it was.
And they use the same instrument patterns over an over again, on top of it. :/
I dunno. That's just my opinion though. XD I think that if one really listens to how she created some of the sounds and compositions, though, it really is genius and original; but I just think that for casual listening it gets really boring. :/
