It really is!! The context and just one's own surrounding can change the whole view of a song! I also didn't like CAROLS as much in the beginning, but I was lucky and had a snowy day and CAROLS at the same time
SURREAL is one of my all time favorite songs, if not the one favorite, and I didn't even like it much in the beginning. To me it was an overperformed classic. And then I was just lucky and saw underneath the surface. It's unique progression, lack of real chorus and just the slight weirdness/difference to other pop songs that makes Ayu's songs special
