my favourite ayh? solo. it feels really modern, even futuristic to me somehow, i can't explain it. and the lyrics are heartbreaking ;; (though i don't understand the "kangaetsuku subete ni..." line. maybe i misunderstood it?) seriously, why is this song so good?

this song grew on me super fast and now i love it. that whole futuristic, "robotic" feel of the song is great. and even though they don't sound anything alike, i kinda think of this song as a sibling song to nino's solo (and it's not because he supervised it). somehow they just fit together.

i don't... entirely understand what the song is about? which made it a little tricky to translate, lol. it sounds beautiful though, both the lyrics and the song itself. all the harmonizing is just so lovely! and i'm sooooo weak for that "all my love is you" line, ahhh asfjh ;;

this song is just so cute and positive. and kinda catchy, too. oh, baby blue ♪ i love the "nakanaide / hora / kimi dake ga kimi rashii kara" the best though, it's just... aw. jun ;v;

one of my favourites from the ayh? album. the fact that it has such nice lyrics makes it even better. the entire song really gives off that laidback, "on a roadtrip with my friends, and together we can conquer the world" kind of vibe. the first time i listened to it, i immediately pictured sakumoto in the front and the other three in the back, so i love that jun thought the same thing for the live tour c: ♥
