It's just math: UP TO YOU has more songs I don't care for that much than the other two albums. I'm really meh about HEy GirL, Something Missing, One of a Kind and UP TO YOU and though I like YOU, it's totally overshadowed by all of her other ballads.

Might be explained by the fact that I fell for MiChi's lighter, positive songs and THERAPY (which I think is her most flawless album, lol) first. Those are closer to my usual music taste than the party-girl underground-ish songs UP TO YOU has more.

However, I've started to come around to the whole album recently: ChaNge the WoRLd also used to be on my meh-list, but one day I suddenly heard the song's genius and I've come to love it. I've also discovered the amazingness of Why oh Why and WoNDeRLaND? and I really like and appreciate them, even though they haven't become new favorites.

Oh yes I have! Surrender is just a wonderful song, it's such a gem on MiChi MadNesS. I hope you can get the album soon! I don't care for that album much myself, but I can sympathize with wanting to complete the series lol.

I agree, so many lyrics I want to know better. I also want to know Find Your Way's message better and All about the Girls is another song I'm really curious about. I'm suprised no one has taken the challenge, I would've thought MiChi had at least enough fans to have one or two who can do both English and Japanese.

That's great to hear! I love when albums have good booklets and visuals, it makes the album experience so much better and really makes having the physical CD and booklet feel worth the trouble.

And thank you! It's also great for me to be able to discuss all these things about MiChi with someone, usually there aren't that many chances to do it and I rarely get to meet someone so passionate and interested! I'm kind of a late addition to MiChi's fandom, since I only discovered her some time after THERAPY, but she's become one of my favorites and a really important artist to me. Songs like YEAH YEAH YEAH!!!, PROMiSE and motto. drive stress and anxiety away like nothing else and other songs like THERAPY, Shibuya de Punch and Perfect World just take me to places, it's amazing. Her positivity is so refreshing, it makes her a lovely artist to follow.
