You is also one of my favorites!

I'm also one of the few that seem to really enjoy Stay with you, too.

And I hate that she never sings Yume no Uta... It's 100x better then Ai no Uta, imo.

She can't sing Yume no Uta due to plagiarism issues, which sucks big time.

Ballads I love: Yume no Uta, One night romance, Promise, you, walk/walk ~to the future~, stay with me, anytime, feel, Someday, Gentle Words, Hana, No Way, Believe, Koishikute, Suki De, hands, IN THE AIR, Moon Crying, Rain, So Into You, Sweet love, Your only one, Aisho, Unmei

Songs in bold are very underrated and never ever mentioned by anyone.

Ballads I don't care for: Ai no Uta (I tried to like it, but never did. Tho Urban Kiss version is quite nice), Stay, Imagine, I'll be there, Ai wo Tomenaide, Tsuki to Tayo, Alive, Ashita e...

Ballads I can't stand: Once Again & Passing By. I always skip Passing By and Once Again has like 1 play in my iTunes library. She even had to sing it live, what a waste. Could have been One night romance or Your only one instead.

well, actually "Yume no Uta" performed in Black Cherry tour and Taiwan 09 live, both included in DVD. another version of that song "Futari de" performed in Kingdom tour as well, also included in DVD.

Since the copyright issues came to light she stopped performing it.

Omg this Suki De remix is amazing. I didn't notice it before. I nomally don't care for this song. I love all of Aili's "warmy" remixes, though She does for Kuu's generic ballads what the Urban Kiss version did for Ai no Uta (though I do like that one originally, too).

Futari de got also performed at UNIVERSE Tour and I guess one or two other times also, in the long is was performed more times than Yume no uta (talking about concerts).
Kinda funny cause both songs have the same melody, so changing for Futari de makes no difference :rolfmao

you, Promise, hands, Yume no Uta, Aisho are my favorites ballads from Kuu.
These songs have also some of her best PVs <3

Ballad talk again

Mine are:
Unmei, Aishou, Anata dake ga, Gentle Words, Ai wo tomenaide, Rain, No Way, Tsuki to Taiyou, walk, MORE.

I also really like Suki de and Imagine. I pretty much dislike all ballads on secret album , lol.

Ai no Uta, Yume no Uta and you are so overrated imo. I like them, but they're definitely not among her best.

Songs like Okay, Once Again, anytime and so on aren't ballads to me.
But I love Okay and Once Again so much btw!

I love all of her ballads, but "far away" is my least favorite. And I think my favorite is "Suki de, Suki de, Suki de" because I have never been so obsessed with a ballad before as I was with that song. :'D

That's Unmei for me. I can't describe, how much I adore this song!
(and I have a soft spot for Ai wo tomenaide - goosebumps material every time).

I love her ballads. Always, Turn around, and For You are some of my favorites among the other popular ones like hands and you. I don't think I really dislike any of her ballads. Moon Crying isn't really my cup of tea but I love the piano version that came as a first press track for the single.

Turn around, yes!
I love that one, too. Played it to death, when HOTEL was released.

Btw. there's a special Nico Nico Douga Live Talk for the new album on 03/15, just like they did with HOTEL back at its release day.
And this time she's going to perform something acoustic!

Also before on 03/08 there's a pre-release event with a streaming of her musicvideos from TAKE BACK to WALK OF MY LIFE:

It's all about Gentle Words when it comes to her best ballad for me.
Taisetsu Na Kimi E is also a favourite but is horribly let down by nonsensical Engrish.
