All of this!

Ayu always had a subtle way of telling us things through her music, her lyrics and her photos, but "Party Queen" is different, because I simply can't see the sadness and the loneliness Ayu talks about in her tweets.

I just saw the covers in a bigger resolution and for me she looks perfectly happy and sexy (trashy and cheap for some people!) on these pictures. I compared her smile to other smiles in other photoshootings and there is no difference.
