I'd say.... offhand, "walking proud" and "talkin' 2 myself" are the only ones that will probably never sound dated. "walking proud" because it's just classic, mid-tempo ballad Ayu (similar to, say "Dearest", "Who...", and to some degree "Far away"). "talkin' 2 myself" because it's classic key-changing rocker ayu (similar to "evolution", but with a darker tone like "End of the World" and "Because of You").
I don't think timelessness is her biggest problem though, it's that the uniqueness is gone. After so many years, it's to be expected... but "decision" sounds exactly like "is this LOVE?", "momentum" sounds exactly like "M"... she's got nothing that sounds like "Key" or "Connected" (unless you count remixes) or "vogue".
