I put TRICK on the 1st spot because of TABOO -which is my favorite song ever-, Bling Bling Bling, Venus, That Ain't Cool and Driving. But I think that JAPONESQUE is more ''solid'' as a whole so that 2nd spot is very very close to the 1st.

TRICK is amazing! But it feels like it's just a collection of random songs and she should've worked the theme better (as almost every theme she uses for an album lol). show girl, TABOO and Driving are some of my favorites from her! I also feel like JAPONESQUE is more solid as an album because she could translate every song with a visual and the tour - even if kinda late, was a nice extension to it (that damn opening with So Nice!).

I agree about Ayu doing something like this  It'd be really great and I bet the accompanying ~kingdom themed~ tour would be so good. The SUPER ayu book pictures would be perfect for the entire Party Queen era, it's a shame they were only released in a book.

I got used to Black Cherry that way! But there's a thing that I never understand: I always forget Kuu's music (which is a good and a bad thing because I always rediscover a lot of gems but I shouldn't do that because her music is amazing in a whole) and come back to her when she releases something new. I'm learning to like BON VOYAGE now because I honestly feel like that's her weakest album ever; even Dejavu is better - Hey baby! alone ***** all over BON VOYAGE, you can only save SHOW ME YOUR HOLLA imo. That's harsh but I feel like that
Speaking of Ayu, I guess she had a whole kingdom theme in mind while making Party Queen but only because of the word "queen". That was a nice photoshoot but I feel like the pictures she used for the booklet translated the feeling better. But my post is very long already and I feel like anyone will read all of this lmao
