Rainbow Road overall feels very uplifting which's different from The beginning in a good way

Birthday Song is cute & my fave album track as expected is No end

Rainbow Road [AAC]

http://jpfiles.blog138.fc2.com/blog-entry-11394.html

CD only





No end is the only track in the album that doesn't have a tie in

Cute & I have received my copy of Rainbow Road earlier on

ayaka looks really bad in the photos inside the booklet . Suddenly the covers aren't as horrible looking :x

Ouch. 2PM gets #1. I'm quite shocked at the numbers. It should've been higher!



Apparently a Sony 1-2, with the Korean boyband taking the top spot and ClariS second. But both of these are best albums, and Ayaka's a studio album...that's weird.

It's going to take a miracle if Ayaka wants to be #1! But I think she has a shot at #2. She's behind...by 310? #2 is doable! Still disappointed about 2PM though.

April has been overwhelming, especially for female soloists - first Ayu and miwa gets overshadowed by Masaharu Fukuyama and Southern All Stars, and then this...seems like Ayaka missed expectations? We expected more out of it. (Conspiracy theories: too much 'recycled' content much like miwa? More digital sales compared to physical sales?)

I guess this is the flying-get day. As much as I had a meltdown with the covers I would probably still buy it. Look at ayaka sexxxing up that tv, she just sold a copy to me just with that. I'd get the 3cd one because it's the best cover.

I recently saw a picture of her first live dvd cover and became extremely nostalgic. I miss that ayaka...

My goodness, a whole lot of pictures! Maybe this is one of the most anticipated J-pop releases for April, I assume!

It seems it's getting closer to me...! But I'm going to have to wait until next week due to delivery issues, because I may have found out I accidentally written the wrong address...

No end remains the best track.
Number One is actually not so bad in the end.
Have Fun!! is kinda cute but… I don't like the chorus at all.
Tsuyoku Omou isn't that good.
Beautiful is as it was before. The opening is and will always be the most flawless part of the song. At 1:08 the song dies, and comes back to life at 1:30. Then it becomes great at 2:53. The ending is flawless too. If only the chorus was good. This song could have shat all over other ayaka songs but she had to have that chorus. Bless.
Gensoukyoku is still classic ayaka.
Lose Control is the second best song on the album.
Through the Ages left no impression except for the violin.
Zutto Taisetsu Na Kimochi is a snoozefest.
I appreciate Chiisana Ashiato more than I did before because my love for percussion has grown exponentially but I still don't like it.
Birthday Song never happened. Let's never talk about it starting from now.
This entire album made me appreciate Nijiiro in the end. After all the junk and filler ayaka gives us a cute lil song. Makes me appreciate it even more.

Overall 4.5/10.
Keep for the iPod: No End, Lose Control, Nijiiro, Beautiful, Gensoukyoku, Number One.
In the end, ayaka didn't deliver. I'm disappointed since I know she can do better. The six songs I recommended are basically 25 minutes of solid pop music. Put them in the order as they appear in the album and you have a great mini album. As for the other songs...
