As much as I would love to hear the ayu of this era tackle A Song for XX, I think it would probably be a bad idea. People weren't all that impressed with the YOU and Depend on you from Mirrorcle World. Like you said if she would have done it around the time of A BALLADS I think it would have been perfection.

I feel like the ayu of now doesn't relate to the lyrics as much as she did back then. They would sound insincere, as people said. She performs the songs live yes, but when there's the energy of the crowd and the adrenaline is pumping it all comes together.

Back then ayu focused on the loneliness and confusion and isolation she was feeling, her recent lyrics show she's more at home with herself now and more content. I would rather see ayu produce like a 'reply' to A Song for XX, like a "if you could talk to yourself back then, what would you say" type thing.
