the song grew on me for the positive message. but the pv just sucks. such a waste of money, no pv is better than a bad pv.

when i first heard it, i didn't like it. it was for olympia, and for that it sounded too stereotype. i.e. no unique sound

Oh, I wish people wouldn't dislike this song. It's one of my actual, ultimate favorites (right next to no more words, of course).

I can understand where people wouldn't like it because of the PV, but I have to say that I like the song's PV. Yes, the bright lights are blinding, but I adore the people talking about their dreams. ^^

I think the song itself is just so beautiful! Her vocals are strong (as are the lyrics) and the melody flows wonderfully. I have to say that I don't care for the "fans cheering" before the repeat of the choruses, but I can handle it fine. ^^

It's a freaking awesome song to dance and fake-sing to an imaginary crowd to. Be sure to use really dramatic choreography for maximum fun.

Seriously though, I really do like this song a lot. It makes me feel inspired and motivated. Sets my heart to burning!

When I'm in the mood for it, I like Born To Be... xD I think we don't realize how much effect a PV has on the song, I personally got a tacky feeling from both songs on Startin' / Born to Be... due to their lame PVs. D:

I didn't begin to love it until a few months after it released. I guess after the onslaught of 'choir-songs', i.e. B&D/Pride, and then BtB... I wasn't exactly happy with the direction Ayu's music was taking. But on it's own, I think it's one of her most inspiring and uplifting songs to date. The three choir songs (B&D, Pride, Born to Be...) are probably my most played nowadays, in terms of the '05-'06 era.

The song itself is OK, but it's the PV that killed it.

HAHA, I do that all the time. Born To Be... and talkin' 2 myself are my current favorites. I remember when I used to do M all the time, but right now I'm taking a break from that song since I don't want to overplay it.

Oh my, people actually hate HONEY? I think HONEY is one of Ayu's most personal and cutest and happiest song ever! And the other songs on this list are pretty good too! And I'm still baffled by how people keep comparing fairyland, BLUE BIRD and glitter... Honestly, these 3 songs have different moods and sounds to them... they don't even sound the same.

I really like Born to be, and I like the PV too. But I don't like Startin' PV.
Yes, it looks like a football soccer theme, but still, it gives so much energy, and the pv is simple, and energic too - the only thing i don't like is the black dancer...

It's funny how a track's PV can influence how one judges such song.

I love "Born To Be..." .

LOL.

I've always like Born To Be..., but yeah the PV is just awfully blinding. Although, I really loved her hairstyle in that PV.
