From previews:

Party queen: Still don't love it, and probably won't listen to it much, but it sounds a lot better in HQ. Still a little "empty".

NaNaNa: I'm lovnig what I'm hearing. Sounds new and yet kinda nostalgic.

Shake It♥: I love it too! Sexy!!!!

taskebab: interludes never interest me much, from any artist.

call: Gives me good vibes. Nice. Very "mainstream" for Ayu.

Letter: My least favorite thus far, listening in order. We shall see with the full version.

Reminds Me: Kinda generic and blends with the last two songs, but I like it more than Letter. It sounds promising.

Return Road: I love this. Darkest so far.

Tell Me Why: I love the dark slowness of it. Like a creeping shadow.

a cup of tea: Just my cup of tea. I just said I don't like interludes, but this is really amazing!!!! Wish it was a full song.

the next LOVE: A very different sound for Ayu and I kinda love it. I hope she does more like this.

Eyes, Smoke, Magic: Kinda this albums Sexy Little Things, but slower. Preview is too short for me to really make even a snap judgement, because I don't like the beginning, but just as it ends I wanna hear more. We shall see~

Serenade in A minor: Love this too. Again, I'm surpirsed because I'm not one for interludes. Still, I like a cup of tea better.

Overall, I'm pleasantly surprised. Since I'm not a fan of the two songs that were released, I was kinda scared, but I really love most of these songs. This album kinda makes me think of an old Hollywood movie. Starts off with all the fame and glitz, but then goes to some darker areas, like when an actor falls from grace.

Most excited for: NaNaNa, Shake It♥, Return Road and Tell me why, because they are my favorite, and I'm curious as to how Eyes, Smoke, Magic turns out.

I think she hired him partly because he's an actor/singer/composer.

It's not a good idea though that he keeps showing up since a lot of people aren't really too fond of him at the moment because of it.

call and Letter remind me of anime ending themes. I just get that vibe from them. :3

And NaNaNa is far too damn catchy for its own good. LOVE it.

Shake it♥ and Tell me why... idk I think I need to hear the full versions of those.

There's nothing I overtly dislike. I'm actually pumped for this after hearing these samples. Ayu never disappoints me. :]

Yeah, Ayu has a horrible habit of picking up a pet and shoving him into everything she does for a period of time. It's really annoying. She needs to realize she, as an act, is Ayumi Hamasaki, not Ayumi Hamasaki + Timmy or Ayumi Hamasaki + Shuya or Ayumi Hamasaki + Naoya and whoever else. We listen to her for Ayu, not Ayu with Timmy rapping and Timmy dancing and Timmy being in every single thing she does.

Spoiler:
We had such a nice time. We started dating in t2m PV, took it slow you know, let our love grow. Then it got really serious in 2008. Then after AT2009 we moved in together. It was lovely. Then on AT2010 he asked me to marry him. He was such a sweet. And Ayu gave us our blessings. She was also such a sweet. Now me and Maro are such a sweets together. Aaaw, how time flies.

My biggest issue with this is how he thinks he's doing a DUO with her. He was perfect in Brilliante; but thats enough. I didn't like him rapping on CDL12. I was all, "WHO THE **** ARE YOU? GET OFF THAT STAGE!" I saw that no one else seemed to appreciate him either.

Maybe it has to do something that he just came from no where and is now the 2nd star. I wish he had been hinding in the background for a year or so before popping in so much as he has now.

Could also be some inner jealousy thing that I'm not just aware of. Yet I seriously hate the rapping.

tbh i don't really mind him dancing and composing (well the only song i heard so far that was composed by him was brillante so i may change my mind after listening to the songs he composed in party queen) but yeah he sang in BRILLANTE, happening here, hbya, and now NaNaNa... Please, i listen to ayumi for HER, for ayumi hamasaki, not for timmy. I really loved him in brillante, but... no.

I remember when people liked Timmy, lol
I don't care as long he is not really a "feature". The rap sounds good in NaNaNa and I don't mind his choirs/ even I prefer male choirs than the female ones.

It was in the preview that was shown on TV.

There's the party we heard in the preview and then there's the part that has Timmy rapping in English.

Oh no; does he rap in NaNaNa too? IF its bad I'll seriously cut it out of the song. I really despise rapping in songs that aren't rap songs.

Return Road also sounds pretty bad ass... although Eyes, Smoke, Magic was not what I thought it was going to be...hopefully I'll like the full version!
