It was an album full of songs she'd done a billion times. The same old words and melodies plopped together with the same instruments and it was nothing special.
Ayu rarely takes chances with her singles because she said she likes to keep them mainstream. Bold & Delicious is the only single that comes to mind as far as her trying something totally different with her singles. But otherwise, album tracks are where it's at. Her album tracks are often way more experimental and different compared to her singles, so it's safe to say she will this time around as well.
