criminal is officially my new favourite song.

I mean, seriously. Just LISTEN to this masterpiece! It's so powerful, even though it's mostly quiet! XDD I LOVE it! Share your thoughts on this song. ^_~

I rather think it is the weakest track in the album following Pride... I hated the vocals mainly, the rest is good. I like the part where she half wispers though, thats the BEST part of the whole album XD

If she re-recorded the vocals, then I'd reconsider it... It's also rather messy...

Yeah, I agree entirely with the messy part, they should rearrange it. Other than that, I think it's fine.

Upbeat songs boring? Wow O_O Ladies Night and Bold & Delicious are one of my favourites for being un-boring

I forgot to mention! Criminal obviously has the best arrangement in the album though I love the rock/voilin combination. Not as good as Heartplace, but still awesome nevertheless.

I think Criminal has one of the best arrangements any ayu song has ever had in an original version. Listen to the piano, guitar etc. and the end of the chorus is perfect. and ayu with low vocals.....doesn't happen much. it's also my favorite album track I think (my top 3 are alterna, (miss)understood and criminal..in no specific order)

I think it's a really good song! The whispering part, I didn't really like it but I think the chorus and the messed up part truly brings out the entire emotion of the song! I hope they would make a PV for this like how they did for my name's WOMEN. It's a PV deserving song!

It reminds me of still alone, which isen't a bad thing, but it'll probably have to grow on me. Probably sound better to me as a part of the album...

I love this song. Not as much as (miss)understood or HEAVEN but it's a great song. Personally, I love her vocals for it. *nod nod* Great song.

I liked it the moment I heard it. I couldn't BELIEVE the arrangement and how amazing it was...I don't really remember any whispering parts, though. I'll have to listen again.
