I'd say M, she composed it, it's grand, it's everything a magnum opus should be. I'd say I am... for the album too, it's got all the elements (like people said): everything up until I am... was building up to I am..., it's like a progression from all the themes of her early work.

And even if it's not your favourite song, I think it's pretty much agreed that M can be seen as the "iconic" song of that era, right? It encompasses all the themes of I am...

It's a respected album in and out of the Ayu fandom, SEASONS and Duty come a very close second, but I imagine Duty is more popular in Japan, and I am... in non-Japanese fandom? Like how people who aren't even Ayu fans know evolution or M.
