I wasn't into J-Pop like that, outside of my favorite animes but now that I have heard Ayumi sing, it has turned me on to a completely new genre of a music that I am quickly falling in love with. Because I like Ayumi I've done research now I like Utada Hikaru and plenty more too! Thanks Ayu, you've opened my eyes!
They fixed up some voice problem here. Actually some of her notes were off at that day. Still, I really like she sang this song in this way. It was powerful like singing from her heart. The one in ARENA TOUR 2003-2004 was a little bit soft while the one in COUNTDOWN LIVE 2009-2010 didn't have any heart-feeling. It is said that this song she performed in RnRC Tour was powerful, too. I wish I could see it!
@RUCHIAandHARUHI but they said that wikipedia lies....well i've been searching about ayu though and they said that she had ps b4...to her nose,chin and idk what else..
@RUCHIAandHARUHI nahh that'S boring anime..btw does ayumi wrote her own song??..i just wanna know bcuz the lyrics is so meanigfull and very deep..sorry wrong spelling meaningfull just correct me
@lalagirl211 Yeah, Ayumi wrote all her lyrics herself. I read a long time ago that that was part of her deal with the company, that she gets to write all the lyrics for her songs.
@lalagirl211 She didn't really say. I think she wants to make music for a long time. At one point during an interview with CNN I believe, she said that if she doesn't make music, she'll die, because music is herself and her life.
And, I remembered that she actually said that in English herself.
@H536917 ohhh??she knew how to speak english that'S really nice btw i think u know more about ayumi can u tell me if she really had an surgery cuz...if they have surgery they wnt tell on japan...it's only a secret that's what i know base on jessica simpson the price of beuaty they went to tokyo japan...oww this is so confsing but w/e try 2 understand i..ok thx reply me bck
No, that's a very accurate description except her reputation is much better than Jacko's if you know what I mean. Poeple usually compare her to Madonna though.
lol Taylor Swift can rhyme but her songs cant compare to Ayumi's cuz ayu writes about every emotion in her heart and puts it all into one song :D her songs r so meaningful~
And sure, Koda Kumi can get some freak on during performances but at least Ayu doesnt sing crap like "make me hot" >.> btw does anyone know wat kinda rock genre Because of You is? :D
Yeah agreed. Ku is talented but alot of times her lyrics are just crappy soft porn. Taylor swift is cute but she isn't goddess material like Ayu is. Honostly I don't know how anyone could compare those two.
AYU FOR EVER!!!!!!!!! the best j-pop singer IMAO. wonna who can out beat the empress of j-pop. NO ONE!!!!!! (again...IMAO, so please don reply to me badly)
ayu .... its been 6 years now and i still love her. her song r so touchin in many ways, tat way i love her till now + i can express my feelin more wit her music than any other artist.
This was the first Ayu song I became obsessed with, years ago now. I had heard a few others before, and had loved them, of course, but this was the first one I just stuck on repeat and listened to over and over and over. ^^
hey KaydenKolldy, you must be pretty bored... watching something you dont even like... tbh ur comments r just pathetic, get a life !! and btw ayu's got amazing voice
Question, who is the other girl singing with Ayumi? She has black hair, white shirt and is standing next to the left hand piller. She's sing at the same time and all.
idk but there happens something very funny to me my all game account's name are Ayu4u ik thats funny but i never knew that exist any real ayu :O [Ayu4u =Ayu for u :D]
utada came to america and so should ayu together they could take over a big part of the music scene here. its been so generic for way too long they would bring something better to the table, japanese FTW!
As much as I agree with you, a majority of people wouldn't really accept them. Even with Utada breaking the language barrier I haven't seen much of her promotions on TV.
This song and performance is so powerful, it gives me chills.
