So all the content was from the recycling bin but you got excited by a single that felt like going back to previous material? There's really no winning here.

I love Last minute as much as the next guy but that single is the Ayuest thing to ever Ayu. Party Queen has got massive production flaws but is to this day one of her most thought out albums and offers songs and styles completely unique to her discography, which is insane when you think of how long she's been going.


On that topic, I'm excited for MASK because from the description it might be closer to what we usually get from her than the last two singles, so it'll be interesting to see how she navigates that to keep it fresh! It may be a good indicator of where she's going with the album.

I dont have to love, getting excited, every single released from her. Many releases since Party Queen are purely either recycling and bad.

You enjoy Party Queen, go ahead. Not for me. I throw that album into rubbish bin years ago.

I'd love to know how you got that from my message? Literally never said anyone had to like anything, I was just pointing out that you said her recent songs felt recycled while praising a single for making you think of a previous release. I'm sure you can appreciate why that sounds weird?


I'm really not too keen on Remember you as a title, I hope it's not the album's! I feel that it's fairly common for CDLs to have their own titles though (Future classics, Promised land, ...) so hopefully its just the concert's name!
