Well, if you look at MY STORY

1. Starts off Rockish and Hyped Up
2. WONDERLAND marks the subsiding of the hype and into something more serious and emotional
3. Start of "Pain of Love" Songs
4. Ballads
5. Kaleidoscope marks the start of second hype
6. Hyped Up songs with gradual transition to more smoothing and relaxing tunes (Replace, winding road)
7. Ended off with a BASH! (Humming 7/4: which is an equivalent of "+" (more than) in RAINBOW, flower garden in I am ... and girlish in DUTY)

The interludes are not for no reason. They basically mark the transition of the moods and actually help to people to appreciate the album as an ENTIRE FULL COMPLETE album instead of an album as just a compilation of songs.

WONDERLAND does serve this purpose and I think it's really great! It just paints this picture in your mind instantly and I think that's where it succeeds! I hoped they made a video for this in her ARENA TOUR but nope ... there wasn't so I'm DISAPPOINTED to a certain extent!
