Track Listing

1. STRONG BODY
2. Strike One
3. STRONG BODY (Instrumental)
4. Strike One (Instrumental)

1. STRONG BODY

Ayumi’s first collaboration of her career, turned out strange because well, it’s not a ballad unlike the her previous releases.  It does feature Ayumi under some autotune which isn’t a first because I think she was under it it “re-set”.  Still the music here is like dance and features some different synths and beats.  What other people will say is that this song sounds way too much like Britney Spears’ “Womanizer” and I agree, because it totally sounds like it.  It’s kind of cool despite the closeness to the track. 

2. Strike One

Strike One is also a dance heavy beat, but I have no idea if twenty4-7 was part of the track, but somehow I think they are.  Thank god, it doesn’t sound like a reiteration of a track and Ayumi under the autotune again helped this track as well.  It sounds like a remix though, because the arrangement sounds a bit dry at places, but yeah hmmm what can ya do.

 

 

Ayumi’s 3rd of the era, she kind of switched genres on us completely and it actually worked for her becuase well, she didn’t sound as awkward as I thought she would.  She should stay away from making songs that sound like cheap knockoff of other songs though (STRONG BODY).
