Party Queen review

YOu guys, I think Ayumi is probably depressed and has been since she was young (warning, I'm
nooo psychologist or psychic idol whisperer). This in IMHO!!!

She was abandoned at a very young age by a man, her father and she has no real memories
of him. Her mother seemed to woirk a great deal of time time, who on her own worked
to support herself, her mother, and Ayu herself. Her grandmother watched her the most,
though I'm not sure how much of the time (A Rockin' in Japan interview from around the
A BEST release that is on masa's site that she would wait after school because her parents
couldn't pick her up). She sometimes worked modeling jobs (in fact, she started in childhood)
and made money for herself, but she stated not having alot of friends since she was on
school and that she wasn't willing to play coy with directors in order to gain more attention.
She just always was lonely and has talked about it, and I don't think she liked this
but got used to it. She then made more friends prior to dropping out of high school
because she didn't necessarily think she needed things taught to her in school that were
going to be useful to survive. She moved from Fukouka toTokyo to model, and has never
really indicated to hae had a group of friends that was large. Then shennanigans (TV acting jobs,
singing on V, and making a ****ING RAP ALBUM) ocurred but she ultimately met Max Maatsura
and eventually was signed on to make music. While writing letters to Max, he
said her writing was very mature and asked her to write her own lyrics. She began to, but even
at her debut her song "poker face" was marked by the death of her grandmother, who
she couldn't spend her last days with because of recording said song (she rarely performs this).
The rest of her singles were all safe pop-rock songs, but nearly all of these songs dealed with
a negative aspect like anxiety or depression and hesitation. Her promotional songs before her
album debuted were Hana, A song for xx, and POWDER SNOW (the latter two being very well
known within the fanbase; POWDER snow is a desperate cry for help lyrically, and A song for xx
is one of her signature songs and probably her signature song within fandom). I believe THIS
was what shot her debut to #1 for 4 weeks; her ability to convey these feelings of negativity
and have the courage to sing about it in all honesty about it at the same time.
Afterwards, her carrer shot upwards with LOVEppears' singles, making her single A
sell close to 2 millions and her previous song Boys and Girls sell a million copies. (A/N: I had a bowl
of... CEREAL and think "Wake me up" should've TOTALLY been a summer single with the rest of the
Maro trilogy. This is mah **** *fistpumps*!!! And Part of Me is her best video, forgiveness
her most beautiful song and that Party Queen is the cheesiest, crapiest and funny song evahr!
Makes it scary how the explanation behind the song gives is such scary undertones!!! So yeah,
her getting married and clinging to new people and including dancers it just shows
how lonely she is. Lonery queen indded. And its sad, and I feel so bad for her.




PARTY QUEEN REVIEw <3

1. Love Song; to have listenedto something good before Party Quina ruins my eardrums. Her voice is so
strong and confident! Even if its shaky at points. The acoustic guitar really makes the song
and the guitar is EPIC at the very end.

2. Party Queen: Gross at initial listening, it sounds like a crappy mornung and koda kumi
would sound. Cheesy, kawaii... blergh. Its like a half assed idol debut song, for real. The music is a cheesy synth or something and has no charm to it, and sounds empty somehow.

but at the end her weird coyote laugh
scared. the crap out of me.

3. taskebab: Yeah, I deleted those crappy songs before it! Wanna know why? Cause they effin' suck!
This interlude sounds like guitar hero but in a cool-ish trippy way? Idk... But its alright.

4. Call- its like the ugly little sister of Heartplace; missing all the awesome **** about it.
and mixing Michelle Branch to it. Heartplace reminds me of something epic like a setting sun,
and this... to roasting a marshmallow over a trashcan bonfire. 3 minutes in i had to quit.

5. Letter- the music reminds me of how some of her songs sound like Gackt-lite.
Sort of artistic, too much to be simple pop but failing to reach the potential. Even her vox
sounds like Gackto the vampire... they both actually remind me of vampires.

6. reminds me: Eww, pretentious orchestra in a pop song rears its head!!!
Hm, sounds like a grown-up Taylor Swift at first... but good. Serene, almost pretty.
They add guitars and it sounds like a parody of Hoobastanc. Then the guitar solo turns ito a Poison sob. I meant "song",
but its still accurate.

7. return road- Sounds alot better than any of the shitfest above. Its seriously between (miss)understood-
Secret good which is kind of unbelievable. then it turns into aPhantom of the Opera parody.
That and Timmah wellard ruins the songwith his
BELTING. And don't get me started with the photo of her and Mannie in the video (talk about tacky ass ****).

8.Tell me why- yeah, i deleeted all the other songs because they are as hot as Olivia Lufkin's career (meaning
freezing. Like In a glacier). Its sort of like a ballad with r&b sounds...? I dunno. All I know is that this song is diarrhea
in the musical form.
