Well, at least I know that I've never complained about her titles until now. I actually kind of liked Step YOU. But I think I've pinpointed why I don't like whats been released about this album so far:

The titles, the cover, the PVs we have seen so far (with possible exception of Days), Sparkle and it's lyrics......are all a dime a dozen. I can totally picture all of these things coming from artists like Britney Spears and the likes. BUT AYU is not a dime a dozen or at least she shouldn't be! Yep, I think that pretty much sums it up for me. It might end up being a fun sounding album - but at the same time, I can get that from pretty much anyone, anywhere.

btw, when I see the title Rollin', I can't get this out of my head! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KKAIlrkSZOg

Then when I finally shake that image, I get this one:
