				"A" single tracks popularity
			 
			
			
			I've always wondered. A was ayu's 1st million-seller, I imagine it was such a hit at the time.  
		
		
		
		
		
		
			
		
		
		
		
		
	
	"A" has 4 a-sides but which is the most promiment one? Do we have a certain official information that monochrome is the leading track? Also. About popularity. I've seen on television when they talk about ayu they usually play M, SEASONS, evolution, Boys & Girls. What about "A"? Is any of the 4 songs popular? It is even rare for ayu to perform any of these songs except for Trauma, which she overplayed. Were these songs not such a big hit individually then? Even End roll made it to A BEST which is one of Japan's best-selling album of all times. Why would ayu not overplay such song?  |

			monochrome is probably the big one aside from Trauma. They all kind of shared the spotlight though. I would say the one given least recognition seems to be too late. 
		
		
		
		
		
		
			monochrome also got voted in by fans to be on A SUMMER BEST over the other three tracks. I think the single to Ayu represented a time when she may have wanted to quit being a singer, so aside from Trauma which sort of forced itself into concerts, the rest of the songs are not performed as much due to the memories associated with them. ![]() When people had the opportunity to vote for songs to get into A BEST LIVE they also voted for Trauma / End roll / monochrome but kind of ignored too late.

	I really love this single I'd love see her perform these songs more often, and I'm glad 3 of them made it to A BEST LIVE list (kinda sad about too late which is my favorite track along monochrome)  |
