I might have found that I'm not the only one who "clicked" with this album even though we love Ayu and all because of different reasons. This doesn't say that the album is bad, just that it's not our taste? I also don't think the covers helped her out this time around like others have said. Especially with the divorce e.t.c.

Haven't really bothered about sales since GUILTY went to Number 2 but this time I don't even feel sorry if she doesn't get the Number 1 spot. I'm also a fan of Ayus for 10 years - and this is the first album I didn't buy immediately after it was released. (And I'm still not sure if I will buy it) It is the first album I was not really looking forward to for weeks before release. I wouldn't want to say I'm over Ayu, because I don't know what will follow after this. I still have hope. But this Ayu-era is not for me. It just didn't click, like you wrote.
