Let's do a Euro adjacent update for tonight, this one isn't quite as explosive as some of the 60-51 reveals were. 9PM sound good? (That's a little over seven hours from now).

I'll be in attendance

The way this will eat as a lipsync song on Drag Race Japan.

Track #1 on Memorial address

 

HIGH SCORE: 10 x 6 (Graves, Kyle-x, UrMom, blueberries, Maresia, Katamari)

LOW SCORE: 1 x 1 (Bad Decisions)

HOST SCORE: 10

 

I can't lie to you girls, I'm obsessed with this track. One of my favorite things about the Memorial address mini is the sheer breadth of the genres that Ayu is insistent on covering. But before Ayu starts genre-bending like she's the avatar, ANGEL'S SONG warms us up with pure pop adrenaline. It's just a damn good pop song to ease us into the proceedings. Triumphant production surrounds some of Ayu's most joyous choruses, immediately letting you know right away that this album is a victory lap. A summation of all that has come before it.

 

I could understand why some of you maybe think of this as too much of a sickly sweet sugar rush but I don't hear that. This is totally celebratory to me, pure pop precision. I'm hooked from the opening synths and drums that sound like they're announcing her descent from the gates of heaven itself. Ugh, and the vocoder'd section at the end? Chills! She's throwing out these little gimmicks like dog treats and I'm snacking down every single one.

 

Like most of the songs on Memorial address, this one got a video too. It's a bit of a mess, Ayu turning into a tacky werewolf to fight some bankrobbers, but it's camp. Good camp or bad camp? It's all the same.

 

 

Suilen: angels sure know how to get down.

Kyle-x: I love how weird this song is and how robotic the vocals sound. The furry vibes in the PV eat too. I wish we got a remix of this one!

Meloetta Carey: *obligatory joke about the furry behavior displayed in the video*

Bad Decisions: trash but the video was camp so it gets a 1.

AMIT: a bit of a bop, but on the lower end of the album quality-wise for me.

song and video are camp but for some reason it has never clicked with me like that :gaycat6:

I wonder if "Feel the Love" will get some brownie points for having a camp video

Not the Facebook link triggering me. J-pop her isolationist policies still in play to this day. The way I had to stream Namie's videography through Facebook of all places.

It's so bad for us. The way whenever I try to find a link the first results are either an Apple Music one or a restricted Youtube link
