Knowing a little about Yoshiki's perfectionist streak, probably not.

I thought because Forever Love came as the closer that it didn't interfere with the flow at all. Maybe it's just me; I didn't mind it at all.

My only problem with this album is that Forever Love is the acoustic version, which is inferior to the original single release. It they had used that single release instead on this album, this would easily be a 5 for me. Also, Crucify My Love is so underappreciated it hurts

Maybe it's because I came into X Japan with their last live, but I've always had a soft spot for their ballads, Crucify My Love included.

The true question though...



What is the band's best ballad? (not counting Art of Life)

I wouldn't consider Art of Life a ballad per se, it just has some ballad sections



Their best ballad is Voiceless Screaming

Say Anything for me but I've liked every ballad they've made minus the version of Forever Love on this.

Endless Rain is objectively the best, but I like Forever Love or Crucify my Love on a personal level. Also, shout out to Longing, great track(s)

Say Anything might be my second fav... Also, I really dig Alive, even if Vanishing Vision's production doesn't suit it too well

Yeah, Vanishing Vision could do with a little sprucing up here and there.

I love Art of Life, Blue Blood and Jealousy. The only ones I haven't heard are this one and Vanishing Vision, but I'll probably get to those eventually too.

Although yeah, it seems most just listen to Art of Life and then stop there, which is a shame because they have so much more worth listening to.
