My review for now will exclude Anything For You since I'm listening to this album through Mediafire.

1.) a Bell - This is one of Ayu's best introductions ever. It's on the same level of Prologue. The music is reminiscent of the music in Kingdom Hearts.

2.) WARNING - I absolutely hate the transition from a Bell into WARNING. This is one of her weaker rock tracks, but I won't deny her strong attitude.

3.) NO FUTURE - Honestly, I don't find this song memorable at all. It goes on two minutes too long.

5.) Last minute - As much as I hate the mixing on this track, I still jam out HARD to this song.

6.) Zutto... - Not that bad of a ballad actually. The music makes it really powerful. Reminiscent of BALLAD.

7.) Out of control - Probably the most basic song on the album. Boring.

8.) Story - OMG YES! This was a pleasant surprise! My favorite from the album.

9.) The GIFT - Basic. Boring.

10.) The Show Must Go On - snowy kiss pt. 2; not a bad song but incredibly boring to me.

11.) Walk - This was the weakest song on the single for me. But on the album it's really cute and a fitting end if we exclude the bonus track.

12.) Movin' on without you - Why doesn't Ayu just keep making music with RedOne lol they obviously know how to work together. Keep 'em coming!

Meh. I thought I was gonna be disappointed by this album judging from the previews but I'm pleasantly surprised at how much I enjoyed it. I wish Ayu would have done more experimental stuff in regards to Colours but this is good. Not an album that's gonna shake up the Japanese music industry, but just good shit to listen to. Story is the best song, with NO FUTURE being the most meh. Can't wait to listen to Anything For You whenever I get the CD in physical form.
