Dear God, where to start...
"Bold & Delicious"- ABSOLUTELY her worst song. I literally cannot even get through the first 15 seconds of that song. I've always thought it was just really stupid and every time I hear it, I think of "Lady Marmalade", which is not a particular favorite of mine either.
"TO BE"- It's not that I absolutely despise it. I know it's one of her better known songs from her early career and though it's not terrible, I just never could convince myself to like it. I tried.
"WE WISH"- It's not terrible terrible either but I am not crazy about it at all.
"Over"- This song is just all over the place. Listening to it is like being on a slow- moving rollercoaster.
"Close to you"- Honestly just kind of blends into the background for me. White noise basically and not very emotionally provocative like her other ballads. And yes I'm just going down the list here with the exception of #1 because... yeah.
"Real me"- This song is just annoying. Way too "Girl Power!"-y and it sounds like it should have been written for the Spice Girls. And the accent. I know she can't help it but it bugs me in this song particularly.
"HONEY"- The only thing worse than listening to this song is watching her perform it live. It's just way too sugary and textbook JPop-ish, and every time Ayu sings it live, it sounds like she's struggling because the pitch is just too high.
"Ladies Night"- Neither a super great nor absolutely terrible song, just not my style like, at all.
"Pride"- Not much to say on that one other than it just makes my ears bleed. I will say, though, that I think it could have been a fairly decent song if she had ditched the choir in the background. Ditto for "Born to be...".
"Beautiful Day"- ...I feel like needs to be the end theme of a kids' show or something.
"Startin'"- This one... for me, it was actually the PV that ruined the song for me, since that was how I heard this song for the first time. I don't... I don't even know what any of that was. It was just weird.
"Beautiful Fighters"
"Sexy little things"- See "Ladies Night".
"Sweet Season"- The song and the PV just don't do it for me. Just really bland although she did look super- cute in the video.
"Virgin Road"- See above. It just puts me to sleep, basically.
"SEVEN DAYS WAR"
"Dream On" Though not technically an Ayu song, it's just terrible.
"how beautiful you are"- Actually, all of the songs from the "Party Queen" album except "Letter", "call", "reminds me", "Return Road" and "Tell me why".
"Merry-go-round feat. m-flo"- m-flo's little segment ruined the entire song for me. It would have been one of my favorites otherwise, I think.
"WARNING"
"Movin' on without you"
"Sayonara"- Boy band.
"Survivor"
Also did not like "We Are The Queens" at all. Sorry, this ended up being a longer list than I'd anticipated originally.
