Well, everyone wanted something different! This is about as different as she can get, eh? hahaha

I still have Rule on constant repeat.) The lyrics are quite shallow for Ayu's standards, especially if you have at least a decent understanding of the original Japanese. And she did say that she was going to try a new way of writing lyrics, thats why I hope it doesn't mean the whole album will be in that style.

I agree with this, although I'm not really worried about Ayu losing herself in all of this. And I don't think Sparkle's lyrics aren't anything we haven't heard before but like you said the style of writing is different. If her lyrics are honest, direct and not flowery, I don't mind, as long as she's honest with herself. That's all I care about. If she feels like making dance music and have a shallow song here or there, it's all good with me
Sometimes music is meant to be fun, and I think that's what she's experimenting with here (based on the titles). I'm looking forward to seeing how they turn out! And if I don't like them at first, I'll just have to keep listening til I do because I bought two versions of this album so she better not disappoint hahaha.
