Hmmm..interesting opinion. Well, I've been an ayu fan for the last 2 and a half years and I must confess that the main thing from ayu that attracted me was exactly her constant change of style (music & image). So, even if I don't like some songs, in the future I'll definitely like others.

As for her relations, I really don't mind who she marries with. She isn't the type of person who appears in scandals (I don't consider her relationship with Mannie or the mini albums LOVE & again scandals....or the Maro thing...like wtf) or go to TV to promote her relationships or to talk about them. This is something I admire her for. And overall, why should I care for her private life? For me, it's all about her music. She can marry who she wants to..american, austrian etc.

And the other thing that you said ..about the sex thing...I don't think that she is or wants to be a sex icon. I believe she was never considered to make part of this category. She almost never talks about sex in her lyrics even if she has some (let's say Sparkle, maybe Last angel, Lady dynamite). Hmmmm...the provocative image is part of her art, of her manifestation, and why not, I'm sure she is quite comfortable with her body. I don't find anything wrong with this.

Have you listened to Love Songs and LOVE again? These albums have a lot of jems in them. You should listen to sending mail, Do It Again, November, Sweet scar, petal. I really love her discography after Rock'n'Roll Circus. Also, you should check BRILLANTE. Epic song!
