RETURN ROAD is one of the best songs she has ever made.

I have to say this album makes me feel like I was lost all this time and came home, exactly where I belong. The fammiliarity I hear in every song with what I fell in love in Ayu's works from the very fist listen is there. It makes me tear up.

Seriously...ugh. Music is science, the more knowledge you have the more you can judge in that specific area. I have little knowledge on composition and cannot judge that objectively, but I HAVE knowledge on vocal technique and what amount of editing is possible in studio without leaving obvious traces. And most people are only oblivious to such traces because they haven't learned how to spot them.

This album is just a masterpiece.
I don't get where the vocals thing's coming from, I actually feel that her vocals compliment these songs and vice versa. |

I just get really annoyed when people post some total crap about Ayumi's vocals and don't even try to state it as opinion but give no reasoning either. Where you can see it boils down to just liking it or not.

It's just weird how she sounds... completely different (in my opinion). It's been gradual, so I've never really noticed it, but after listening to PQ it skipped to JEWEL and I was taken aback at the difference in her voice! Then I listened to Voyage, it was crazy. It's like Voyage to JEWEL progression was understandable, but comparing them both to PQ was crazy! I'm not sure how I feel about it to be honest, I like how she sings now, but her old vocals are like hearing an old friend. It comforting. I don't like change!!! |

Is it too early to claim this as her best album yet?! I'm only up to Letter but I'm ready to give Party Queen the crown already!!

Ok, after shaking and crying, my impression:
Eyes, Smoke, Magic is my life. It's like she doesn't need to do anything else ever again. Its pure magic. Its pure love. Its masterpiece. Its AMAZINGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGG. whoever doesnt like this doesnt like music imo lol, its like you can picture every scene of the video listening to this, its something that pop singers dont do. this is amazing, did I say that already lol? the next LOVE is my next love on this album, it starts so magical, again like a scene in the romantic movie. perfect. masterpiece. again why I love ayu so much. ITS PERFECTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTT. Im such a sucker for jazz, blues, rnb and all these kinds of music. im going to be awake through whole night just because of these two tracks alone. its flawless. its music I grew up with. Im so proud she done it. she's such a diva!!!!!!!!!!! serenade in A minor - beautiful. my third hit on the album with how beautiful you are ofcourse.. perfect way to end the perfect album. call - letter - reminds me - I love melodies so much, I like emotion in her voice, I like her voice in it. tell me why - is so emotional!!! is so dark!!!!!!!! I love this to the bits. its strange to be so in love with the song the first day you hear it. I dont want to imagine myself after few months. chorus is beautiful!!!! ayu I love you!!!!! party queen - nanana - shake it - are all amazing imo, but shadowed by the flawless end of the album. party queen sounds EPIC when loud. I couldnt even imagine it be so strong. I think timmy's rap suits nanana. shake it is catchy as _______ return road - typical ayu when she wants to slay everyone. the catchiest chorus ever. I love her voice again in this. taskebab and a cup of tea didnt freak me out too much, but they are alright. |

lets see:
Party Queen - purely amazing! Much better than the radio rip, but i dont think as good as the live... it may just be me not remembing though... ill havew to go back a listen. NaNaNa - is that timmy rapping? Wow.. it doesn't sound like the preview we got for the PV.. I think I like it, not what I was thinking. But Timmy doesn't bother me as much as I thought he would. Sadly this to me is a song by Timmy feat. Ayumi Shake it - I dont like it as much as I thought I would. It;s okay thought... not the best out of the first three tracks so far. It sure is different though.. towards the end of the song when the music slows for that tiny bit. (upon realizing that it is by bounceback... it explains why I dont like it as much.. never cared for their sound) taskebab - uh... it's okay I guess. Not my Favorite interlude by task, but pretty good. It is a great way to introduce the more rockish part of the album... it does get better towards the middle, but kinda fizzes out for me towards the end. call - the beginning is just beautiful. Simple. I love this track. Letter - out of everything I have listened to so far, I think this will be my Favorite track. I love the chorus, the song is just darn right perfect! reminds me - the beginning is so... OMG! this track starts so amazingly. THis is good. Kinda reminds me of is this LOVE?... I had the middle instrumental part thought.. just doesn't feel like it belongs,. but the end is just as epic as the start... I love it. More to come from me later! (savoring every bit of music that I can!) Last edited by TeamAyu2004; 13th March 2012 at 11:00 PM. |

But still, as for my likings I don't want ro remain in the past. I can appreciate almost all of her vocals, and yes, like someone mentioned before, "Love songs" had very very Ayu-ish vocals on it and I loved this. Now, when I listen to "Party Queen" I certainly do notice the big change in her vocals which has been growing since "GUILTY", but I feel like I am totally OK with that nowadys. The Ayu I fell in love with truly is another one from what you hear these days if she releases new material, and most precious era of Ayu is everything till GUILTY for me. Nonetheless I am quite comfortable with everything she releases since then except of "Rock'n'Roll Circus" and "FIVE". "NEXT LEVEL", "Love songs" and "ayu-mi-x 7" were a blast! =D Last edited by channy; 13th March 2012 at 11:20 PM. |
