That's OK. I remember years ago, with my ex, he didn't get why I liked Ayu, and then when Party Queen came out, he sat in the room with me while I listened to it from beginning to end, gobsmacked at how off it felt to me, and then he goes, "There's some really good songs on there."

I was like, what?? And I went back through the songs finding the ones he thought were good. We both loved "Return Road", but he also liked "reminds me", "Tell me why", and awkwardly, "Eyes, Smoke, Magic". He ended up liking LOVE again when it came out.

Kuu is a very versatile artist. Maybe figure out what she's done that sounds similar to stuff he tends to listen to, and just listen to those songs more often when he's around?

This was kind of my tactic with explaining my fascination with MIKA NAKASHIMA to my old best friend. He used to think she sounded hearing impaired when she sang, but then listened to songs that were more like something Ayu would do, "Oborozukiyo" and "LEGEND" and especially all the dance tracks on STAR when it came out, and before he passed away last year, he had loved the whole "Koi wo Suru" single a lot.
