Excellent!!
| Having never been a fan of techno, I was a bit wary at first of buying this album. However, once it arrived, I was not disappointed. The first half of the album is almost all techno, but each song is unique and catchy in its own way. The second half has a few more ballads and the amazing 'M', which should be considered one of the best J-pop songs of all time. Perhaps my one disappointment was the lack of KEIKO's harmony on 'A Song is Born'. This is a small complaint, however, and the song is still beautiful. Overall, Ayu displays a maturity that goes well beyond her years both lyrically and musically. If you like techno and/or Ayumi, you should buy this album! |

Ayu proves she can do more than just look cute!
| This is probably the best album I have ever heard - by anybody. I wasn't a huge Ayu fan before I bought this. I am now. Some people don't like her new style and say she should stick to cutey Pop songs and ballads. I say THIS is what Ayu is about. THIS is the true Ayu. She composed and wrote all the songs on this album, and so they are truly her own songs. I love the Rock/Techno style she's got now. If you liked "Unite!", "evolution" and "M", then BUY THIS ALBUM NOW!!! You won't regret it. But if you prefer little girly Pop with sweet tunes and lovey-dovey lyrics, then this isn't the album for you. It rocks. Anyone who appreciates rocking music will love it. Ayu has proven that she isn't just a pretty face! |

Very satisfying...
| I love Ayumi. Even though she has more remixes than you can shake a stick at. Of course, I don't buy some of her CDs just because of this fact - nine times out of ten the original song is better than the remixed versions, and I have no desire to spend a fortune on fifteen CDs each containing one or two songs performed in fifteen different ways... I was wary of this CD - it seemed like a bit of a ripoff since I already HAD most of the tracks on here, but I got it on a whim. I am NOT disappointed!! The new tracks make up for the repeat-factor! I would recommend this to ANYONE! I love the rock-style! Viva Ayu! |

Where is our Ayumi?
| This is the first Ayu's album that I buy. Well, Ayu seems a little bit tired of creating new songs. The first part of the songs (before taskinlude)are rock/trance songs. They are almost the same in music arrangement. Oh my God! Where is my talented Ayumi? Also, she doesn't sing the ballads so well now. If you have a taste of 'Dearest' and 'no more words', you will probably agree to it. Although this album is rather disappointed, I like some of the songs such as 'Naturally', 'UNITE!', 'evolution', and 'M'. I think Ayumi doesn't compose songs as she has been so busy filming CMs and singing songs. Let others compose!However, it's a good try... |

Keeps me going
| Ayumi's cd is one of those albums that alway keeps me going. You don't get bored listening to it over and over again. Very upbeat. I love her style. Her cds are never disappointing. It's definitely a must-buy. |

Great CD!
| I loved the CD! My favorite songs are track 1, 4, 5, and the hidden song on track 15. I'm not sure what the name of this song is though... |

Its pretty damn good, go and buy it
| I got this album and like it very much. At first I thought it was kind of rip off because I have half of the song on the singles already. But her new CM songs and other new songs are pretty good in general. I like her song "Daybreak" and "no more words". Some people might say this album is not good because I think they dont like Ayu's songs with rock elements in it. From her earlier songs until now, she moved from pure pop and techno to rock-techno, for example "evolution" "still alone" "Unite!" and "never ever". Personally I like rock so I enjoy this album very much. I was really surprised at the secret track, hope she will release and longer version of the song. |

A deserved 10 for this album
| i think we have waited about 10 months for her this all new original album. And it is a definite long wait coz this album marks her new music sense and way. Her previous 3 albums mostly consist dance, pure pop jap songs but whoa!! this album juz blow me away maybe whenever there are new ayu singles or albums, ppl juz focus on her image but wait pls take a listen to this album before talking about her Eve image. My pesonal fav new song is I am and Daybreak. It is clever of the producer to put I am as the 1st song as this is a rock song which i think ayu has never try it before. this song started out quite slow as if she was talking then later the rock beat starts out and she sing it in a desperate manner. very fresh and nice juz like endless sorrow and daybreak. the new mix of endless sorrow is not gd it does not sound half gd as the original single it have a happy tune and music. i dun like no more words as it is such an ordinary song n it sound like i have heard it before not very original. connected is too short as a trance song should hv been longer but not bad |

Dosn't get any better
| If your a long time fan or just getting into jpop this is a must buy for anyone. Ayu has pulled it of again. She has an amazing voice and amazing talent when it comes to writing lyrics. All the songs are great. I am, Opening Run, evolution, Dearest, UNITE!, and no more words. they are all so great. I recommend this album to anyone who loves good music |
