...and in the end, what matters is that people simply like the music, that it's a good tune that you enjoy listening to.

I agree very much on your post. Every detail of it. And I pity the people who let petty details such as that effect what they think about the song itself.

Yeah, I hear you. So long as the music moves you, then that's what it all comes down to.

It's nice to know that kindred souls are around

Sylvia Plath kept writing about her father again and again. Any great artist does this. Filmmakers like Martin Scorsese have done it. How many times has he made films about violence and redemption?

Repetition is important in art. It enables an artist to move towards a fuller understanding of his/her vision. In Ayu's case, it's what love and freedom means to her. When she revisits her themes and ideas, she is not repeating herself. She is reinterpreting herself.

perfectly said. Goes along with my thoughts that there should NEVER be any complaints about any of Ayu's lyrics. It's very common with some artists, but, with Ayu, I think that after 8 years and over 100 songs written by her, I've grown to almost trust her, as if, she won't, or even, she can't just follow the path of other artists. Her lyrics are always herself, and the feelings that she puts into them, you can't possibly be unhappy with them, because, to be honest, there isn't anything wrong with them in the least.
