I think for Ayu, and a lot of people, love is a very big part of life. "愛のない人生なんて/そんなの生きる自身ない"? The very first line of "Love song" is essentially that life without love is meaningless. Also, as a 15th anniversary song, I think this "love" is not just about a "lover" per se, but for the love of all her friends, family, and--sure why not--fans, as well. It's more about supporting and being supported as a human being, I think, than...well, I'm not such a big fan of the whole "star-crossed lovers"/”運命の人" theme that's appeared in a number of her songs, either. But I think general "love" and support are a big part of Ayu's brand, for lack of a better word.
