no offense to anyone, but constantly throwing the "read the damn lyrics and u will understand sad/lonely party queen" is losing its power.

this is an album. not 14 poems for us to read and analyze like in literature class. this is a product that has a packaging and an image.

i will never disagree that from a lyrics point of view, there is indeed morose and regrets in bulk of the album songs.

but i can't ignore the fact that many other factors of the album that make it an "album" is seriously lacking in any depth to support the "lonely queen" theory that she and Timmy are so snappy about on Twitter.

NaNaNa and Shake It PVs gave me 0 hint on "lonely queen". the album covers and booklet scans also gave me 0 hints on that.

that's all i can say. of course the lyrics prove themselves to be heartfelt and raw... but whatever, it's what i expect from Ayu. i also appreciate the fact that she's trying a facade thing; what with a "party queen" who is in fact really depressed over her recent divorce and many problems of life..

but i don't blame people for failing to see "lonely queen" in this album.
