Which covers were you most disappointed by?

This would be a poll, but that's too many options.

Spanning all singles, albums, and remix albums, which covers were you most disappointed by? Maybe you had an idea in your head, or the concept just did not appeal to you at all.

Mine are as follows:

Singles:
Sunrise / Sunset ~LOVE is ALL~

Albums:
Duty

Remix Albums:
A Best 2
A SUMMER BEST
ayu-mi-x 3
ayu-ro-mix 2
cyber trance 2

Maybe L and hbya.

That's it

As much as I love the album, the Party Queen covers disappointed me the most. I was so, so hyped for that album and I felt so let down when I first saw the covers. I was trying to get my boyfriend into Ayu and I didn't really think those covers best represented what she had to offer.

Honestly, from the bottom of my heart, I respect every decision Ayu does but I wasnt 100% comfortable with these choices:

1. Party Queen cover where her ass is in your face. that was humiliating.
2. Sunrise/Sunset her facial expression only, looked dumb
3. appears that looked too dirty imo


Im sorry my queen

Sunrise/sunset - horrid horrid
(miss)understood CD - looks like they used liquify on her face to stretch her mouth open
vogue - horrid closeup with a horrid font
Rule/sparkle - I hate her hairdo
Dream on - I know its not really Ayus album, but she looks really REALLY weird on it.

Honestly? At first, it was MY STORY because I thought most of the angles on the covers made her look older. Now, it's just (miss)understood. When they were first released, I thought it was fake before I realized that they were the real deal.

(m)u: that horrible smile
Sunrise/Sunset: her facial expression...
Crossroad/SDW: wanna look avant garde but the execution was...not good.
A Summer Best: bad tan, bad hair, bad angle, bad facial expression.
again: I dont like the settings. It supposed to had a winter feelings.
hbya: wanna look aristocratic and classical but it just doesn't hit me.
I think there's a lot more from her old single release but I dont remember.

I became a fan of ayu during her high-concept days, so.... ALMOST every cover since "RAINBOW" has been disappointing to me. Lately I've gotten used to her fashion-concepts for covers, so they're not disappointing anymore, just cuz my expectations are low now. *shrug*
