What do you think of 'STEP you'?

I personally like it, especially when NOTHING is there and she says 1234 You and me...ENGLISH MAN I thought she said she didn't like english, but IT'S COOL, especially the ending...

As many of you know, her performances are usually half of the song...so I wonder what's missing, another chorus?

I didn't have much expectations of the song as I wasn't that impressed with the chorus when listening to previews, and still am not that impressed but the verses do sound very awesome, so I'll get to like the chorus in no time most probably So far I liked it better than "is this LOVE?"

Yup =) Even in the CDL she used English here and there. I think it's improving a bit.

I'm not sure what to think of it. It's a fun song - something I would listen to driving and sipping lemonade on the road. It's very different for an Ayu song, with the random crashes and bangs. The chorus is catchy but odd.

She had fun with the song though.

I haven't seen the live clip, but i downloaded the live audio. Right now, i'm loving it. I love the fact that it's not completely rock but a little techno/pop/dance. It has different arrangement, which i love. I don't like the background singers, but overall... I love it. I think 'is this LOVE?' sound better though. But i still love it.

Well, the clip from the CM sounded a lot better. it didn't meet my expectations, and I'm contributing part of that to the fact that it was a live performance. I hope the actual song sounds better.

I think now I like is this LOVE? better than STEP you.

Sounds weird from the CM itself so I don't know what to expect. It might be one of those "Wow what a strange song, I'll never like it" songs because of the CM but then after hearing it it may be "This is great!"

Just gotta wait and see

What I like about Ayu's titles is that they where so unique.
Like I am...,GAME, Inspire, Moments,because of you, walking proud
It's so cool cause she doesn't say I am at all in the song or CAROLS the song didn't anything to do with carols. And I like that i thought was really cool better then some of the titles today that are way to long.
I don't mine the titles is this LOVE and STEP you but it sounds like her music is starting to sound very american.
Either way I still like her new songs.

I don't really like it. No matter how i look at it, i dunno, it's just kinda, well... boring? .

Who knows, if Inspire managed to grow on me, there's hope for this song

I think she's just following what the majority of her fans like. STEP you does kinda resemble "my name's WOMEN" in terms of genre, and knowing that it was voted as one of the best songs of MY STORY, she's just making sure she's going in the lines to pleasing them. Of course the taste of her fans out of Japan (AHS) can't exactly be compared to what is the trend in Japan right now.
