Well, I haven't gotten that far yet, but obviously the cover is out of place too lol. I didn't even consider it though since it was tacked on to the end at the last minute & hadn't actually been planned as part of the album.

It's actually rather amazing how nasally/higher pitched her voice is again in these tracks. Compare to GUILTY it is totally different (although I love GUILTY voice).

I'm almost 100% sure that NO FUTURE is the song that she might have had trouble reaching the notes in. However it paid off because it's such an intense track. This whole album, I must admit, had me worried, but it's really stellar work so far.

I totally feel like Dorothy from the Wizard of Oz spinning in the tornado towards the end of TSMGO's chorus. Love it!

I think it's safe to say TSMGO is the most grating thing I've ever heard lmao. Major headache now. How did she top snowy kiss in that department???

It's better than snowy kiss, and at the same time a thousand times more painful to listen to.

The Show Must Go On is sex. It's exactly in the right place in the tracklisting too..I needed it after Ayu sent me into a coma with the consecutive ballads of genericness.

The Show Must Go On is basically a good version of snowy kiss.

I love it! It is so... unexpected and random! Face for the front, ass for the back. No in fact it is quite logic.

"The Show Must Go On" part is a bit hectic, but I love the initial chorus. "Kyou mo..." etc. That melody is so good.

It definitely should create for an interesting and intense live atmosphere though.

The GIFT is certainly the weakest track.

The fact that The Show Must Go On doesn't have a music video hurts my heart.

Instrumentals are so rich and deep and those twists or sounds in the middle of TSMGO, what a step up from colours!
