Every December brings a flood of Ayu goodness -- always a new album, 2-3 new PVs, and a new concert. I'm absolutely loving GUILTY so far, as much as I enjoyed (miss)understood two years ago, and much more so than Secret. Although a little short, with only 10 tracks, there's not a dud in the bunch, which I couldn't say about my old favorite (m)u ( Read more... )

"MY ALL"? Really? I think it's a horrible clunker, probably the one song the album could do without. It's like a diluted "momentum" and we know *that* was derivative to begin with!

I'm excited about CDL and Tour of Secret finally coming out on DVD next year! And RAINBOW live is going to be complete and utter win!

Edo, you're alive!! Why the posting drought? I was getting worried...

I love "My All", I don't care! It's such a catchy little ditty. Yes, it's airy-fairy, but it serves as a nice contrast to her big showpieces like "Marionette" or "TW..." I didn't hear the "momentum" similarities until I really listened for them, and I still think the tempo of the verses is much faster, and the pitch overall lower in "My All". Plus "momentum"'s mood was more sombre. Oh well, it's the same composer, what do you expect?
