Oh, thank god. Oops for my eyes glancing over it wrong, since they suck together.

A rat just died next to my laptop, so I'm kinda spacey. Dang thing jumped on me a few days ago and now it's dead via trap. [Sorry, rat, but you're scary.]

On topic: I think Ayu should really stick to her current team minus H/\L for an album or two. Like, she should use more tasuku, CMJK, and Yuta.. possibly DAI if he wants to come back and let Kazuhiro Hara work on his own stuff..

Eh, it's hard to know how Ayu selects arrangers. I wish she'd divulge her reasoning in choosing someone over another arrangers.

Maybe it's not the loss of members that make the songs seem less creative, but the fact that there are only so many ways to write a song out there, a melody or arrangement is bound to be repeated or sound recycled, just like lyrics
Nah, it's definitely not that. Ayu has themes she likes to go back to because that's what she likes to write about, whereas with like arrangements and stuff, there's like a world of different layers and sounds you could go through and it's like, weird how Ayu's sound as gotten sorta empty since then. Like, think about how (don't) Leave me alone could sound if it was arranged by another group.. it'd have like epic strings and maybe some drums and stuff.. it's just like "HOW COULD YOU DO THIS?!?!?!?!?" when they overuse synth and fake strings.
