Those nostalgic/reflective/commonly-thought-of-as-weak-links on the MY STORY album are fucking 1,000,000 times better than the weak links she has had since then. They are warm and welcoming, and most of all, the production doesn't make them sound like demo tracks. Back then, they may have paled in comparison to the majority of her discography, but today, they shine above much of it!

Replace was so disliked back then, and today people probably still don't remember it. But I always loved it and the lyrics~
I don't really ever like comparing her eras to one another since things change and time seems like it makes people feel way differently about her music especially with stuff post-GUILTY.

For those who go through many years with ayu will surely have some of your own memories of the time when you hear Replace. For me, I think of my uni hostel life back then as MY STORY was released during that time.

I may be a weirdo but i love replace and find it one of the most underrated Ayu songs. It's very pretty not only as the concert ender but has a lot of positive energy for me.

I think Replace is perfect ending song
"In order to reach you I continue to sing like this Until we can meet again" "Instead of saying goodbye I’ll replace it with this song and go Until we can meet again"

I wouldn't say I hate the song, it's just that I find most of MY STORY songs to be forgettable (don't hate on me pls), I may have heard that song like three times since I know ayu...? lol But judging from you guys iy was a good song choice, everyone seems happy about this song

MY STORY was definitely when the new version of "classic" ayu started (the classic Ayu that current fans consider "classic ayu" as opposed to LOVEppears/Duty/A BEST/I am... ayu). I was never nuts about tracks like Replace but of course that sound has really stuck over the years, so I've gotten used to it. I find the song "meh" production and melody-wise but holy hell do I ADORE the lyrics. As long as I'm reading along, the song does kinda make me teary-eyed, lol

I would never think that they'd use Replace for the new TA tour CM. But actually, it matches perfectly when you know why she decided to do another TA tour.

My issue with MY STORY is that it's so long. Like every track exceeds 5 mins, and every track has a very full, heavy (almost orchestral) arrangement. Whilst I appreciate the effort into making a comprehensive album, for someone who likes to listen to whole album in one sitting it's a bit difficult. I think ayu wanted to make up for the fact she only released a mini album the year before. In any case, I think ayu was very proud of her work in 2005, and it continued in the form of MY STORY CLASSICAL, AT05 and the MY STORY DVD-A.
Honestly, the only tracks I don't feel fondly towards are the last three tracks. Used to get mixed up about a song called "Walking Proud on a winding road". Love Walking Proud though, amazing. |

My story is one of my most loved albums. Really tells a good...story... The songs all compliment eachother well except that damn Humming 7/4. One of the songs I loathe haha. The bridge is the only part I like.
But Replace has always been one of my faves. Was nice to hear it haha.

So do you guys think that there will be an arena tour 2016? Was wondering what yall thought because she outdid herself with CDM and now this TA tour. My guess is YES, because she has toured every single year for almost fiftten years. I just thought that I read something on here before about ayu already stating that there is going to be an AT16.
