"no matter how perfect something is when it comes to Ayu." =/= "no matter how perfect Ayu is every time she releases something like she has in the past 11 years -heart-"
Reading comprehension, man.
I'm so proud of my Sunrise/Sunset love, haha. People were always like "~wow that single was such a downer for 2009. Her worst effort yet!~" but I liked it a lot. It's a bit offensive imo to people who like what others vehemently dislike. I don't really shove my Sunrise/Sunset love in everyone's faces, but it seemed as though it was okay to basically call it her worst single ever...
I feel that for fans who dislike her newer works and want her to "go back to the way she was", they don't understand the nature of her being/personality. She's someone who is constantly changing, and that's one of the reasons I love her so much. She's never stuck in one image/genre for too long (though this rock thing has been infusing itself into everything since MY STORY) and I've found that to be incredibly refreshing.

That bolded bit was said perfectly; I can't say it any better but I have to agree. Though I have to add, that yeah, this rock bit has been around for a while now and it's understandable since she did say at the start of her career she used to listen to big rock bands, Led Zeppelin for example. It's understandable that her rock roots stayed in her.
As for Sunrise/Sunset; I loved Sunrise, I rarely listen to Sunset but I definitely will when the moment is right. If I had to 'compare' I prefer Sunrise to Sunset, but that makes sense because we'll forever like one thing more than the other, but that doesn't mean we necessarily dislike something. Just because I liked Sunset a little less, you didn't see me complaining about it being on the album and all that.
