Review of FIVE which's taken from Singapore's The Strait Times ; 18th Nov

I have a habit of reading the papers 1st thing in the morning after I freshen up & I squeal when I saw this <3

Singaporeans , it's found in page 11 of the Life ! section of The Strait Times



I have no idea why Boon Chan choose to review FIVE alongside with Girls Generation's =___= but anyway , his review on the mini album sounds ... encouraging :O

What kind of review is that? It's very short...I was hoping a long review of the album itself...but why the heck the reviewer do it together with SNSD?

...but in the end...Ayu is still royalty~LOL

Still royalty~ I love it! It's a little too short and vague for fans' tastes, but at least it's positive.

a) Reviewed together with a group on...a whole other level and even getting less space.
b) Seemingly positive review but 3/5 score? o.0 ALSO the same Girls' Generation got

^I think 3/5 is still listenable, whereas 4/5 is very good, while 5/5 is perfect. There's not a thing is perfect. This mini-album also is not that very good for general but it's still listenable. That's what I thought.

Anyway, very nice review

Usually:
1 = bad
2 = average
3 = good
4 = excellent
5 = perfect

Seems like they're implying Ayu doesn't always write her own lyrics but did for this release. 3/5 is a positive score as well. I would probably give it the same rating.
