"This is Ayumi Hamasaki's 6th album, it's 2nd one I purchased.

CD:

1.Angel's song:A song full of energy, and Ayumi's voice goes well along with the song 10/10



2.Greatful Days:At first for some reason I didn't like this song, but it ended up growing on me, and I found it very catchy 9/10



3.Because of you:The only time I usally hear J-Rock is from Zone, and Do As Infinity, But Ayu does a good job of making a addictive J-Rock song 10/10



4.Ourselves:Every CD I listen to has a flaw, and this is no exception. This is the only song I don't really like. 6/10



5.Hanabi episode 2:I only herd like half of the first one, and I liked it, this is a good sequal, but unfortunatly not a Godfather Pt 2 8/10



6.No way to say:This brings back great rememinises of Dearest. A very calm song, with an emotional hook 10/10



7.Forgivness:Seems like a sad song, and I love this song. The only thing was, I didn't know she was singing in english at the end, untill I read a board with the lyrics 9/10



8.Memorial Address take 2:This is a pretty good song. Nice tune and such and such. 9/10



DVD:

1.Angel's song:This has to be the wierdest thing I've ever seen! Ayu turns into a ware-wolf and kicks bootie all over the place. Hey, Michael Jackson meets Keeanu Reves. It's too wierd, I wanna see Ayu not a wolf. 4/10



2.Greatful Days:Reminds me quite a bit of what I see in America, but it definitly shows a happy side 8/10



3.Because of you:Typical rock video, I like it from time o time, but it's a litle wierd 7/10



4.Ourselves:One wierd video, Ayu inn a car getting attacked by an angry mob, and her album covers being ripped and stuff, what the fudge? 5/10



5.Hannabi:I only get to see a minute of this video cuz my friend put a bad scratch on it. I like it, but I wanna beat the heck outta my friend for making me miss out on the next part of the video 8/10



6.No way to say:Nice seeting for the video. Winterland in the streets of Japan, and this great-going song. 10/10



7.Forgivness:This is a nice video, Ayumi as a ferrie/Angel in a very nice song. Very suitable video 10/10



8.Preview of 30th single collection live museum:Boy after seeing just a sample of this, I know I want the rest of that cake no just a for-jorkin piece of the icing 10/10



It's a mini album with good songs, and a dose of some weird and nice videos. Anyone who likes Ayu should add this to their collection. Anyone who's just getting into Ayumni Hamasaki, should first start off with I am.



Peace"

One of Ayu's best

"I LOVE this album! If you are an Ayu fan, or even if you are not, get this album. It is amazing, and Ayumi shines in Hanabi Episode 2. Ourselves is another rocking song that I just love, and can never hear it enough. This is just a great CD."

Stellar work from Ayu!

"This is easily my favorite Ayumi album, and it's a short one! Each track is amazing, with Ourselves being my absolute favorite. Hanabi Episode II would be the weakest point, in my opinion, and it's still beautiful. The video is so sad!



Which brings me to the videos... Wow, Because of You is... Oh I don't know how to put it. Ourselves is incredible, Greatful Days is good fun, and Forgiveness is simply beautiful. Ayumi as a fairy/angel? Beautiful! ^_^



I would recommend this album to any Ayu fans, but I'd say to track it down somewhere cheaper (yesasia.com has good prices and legit product)."
