  • Japanese version of Ai: Wakeshima Kanon

    English version: Amy Lee or _______

    I wished I read this manga. (I have drawn Ai for my Final Art project like 2 years ago) Anna Tsuchiya seems like a good person to go well with this voice. (She plays and sings as Nana in Nana). The voice I admit doesn't seem to go well with the images to me it looks like it's some kind of amv. Didn't realize until later it wasn't just like a amv promotion thing this is suppose to be Ai's voice.

  • I got this song free with a bonus cd of the manga. Pity the other Princess Ai song's suck in comparison.

  • Who is the singer

  • мда.. голос и песня совсем не то, что я себе представляла..(

  • This may not be my mental version of ai, but I like this song. :)

  • REPEATING IMAGES ARE AWESOME!! ^U^)b

  • This video is quite repetitive, don't you think? Like, you don't have to put that tower everytime it says "Tower", you know.

    And, what's up with the tags?! I don't think both Miley Cyrus and Christina Aguilera sang this song in High School Musical.

  • Okay, has anyone else wondered what the hell is up with the tags?

  • this manga is easily one of my top favorites, i love it!

  • i imagined Ai's voice sounding like that Sierra girl who was in A Day To Remember's "If It Means A Lot to You" :| kinda disappointed with the current singer, she doesn't really fit the part.

  • i know everyone has different opions on her voice and i thought she would sound better with a higher angelic voice XD but i guess its ok

  • everyone has different ideas of how her voice should sound so i dont think the producers even know what kind of a voice to find >< i like this voice better than Courtney's. though, with this one sometimes she sounds too slurd other than that i like her voice as ai ^_^

  • no me parece una voz adecuada para el personaje que representa la prinicesa ai, deberia haber sido una voz más angelical más alla de que tiene un estilo gotico

  • This isnt at all how I imagined the princess ai music. they either needed to get a vocalist with a harder voice, or more angelic. shes so mono toned. they might as well have just used courtney love, herself. this song was better than broken leash though at least -.-

  • I was thinking a soft voice, like Myco... the voice really doesn't suit ai :/ the singer sounds like your typical drama/goth style teen with no depth, but Ai is much more than that, Ai is really deep with a voice that heals.

  • I wish they made the anime.. o.o

  • i thought her voice was suppose to be angelic like amy lee or something like that. not rugged and scratched but it's still an ok song though..

  • i luv this video soo much favorited it twice

  • its awesome!

  • O_O this is sooo much better than those other Princess Ai Music Videos the on with the doll like wtf man xD the other one i saw anime parts and igto pissed THEY NEED TO MAKE IT INTO AN ANIME DAMN IT BUT THIS OOHH THIS VIDEO AWESOME XD

  • @SatoshiHikari159 they r gonna make a movie called the ai-land cronicals it came out in 2009 in japn idk when its coming 2 england though and really pissed off because im a huge fan of tokyopop and they just dont hav the cortesy to bring it 2 my country!:( but at least its coming out soon:)

  • I don't like the girl's voice for Ai, and I imagined that if it was rock it would be more like.... A Perfect Circle than this half way metal stuff. This is horrible for Ai.

  • I'm not sure I like the girl they got to sing for Ai. Its a strong voice but something in the way she sings makes me not like her voice. I always expected Ai to have a sweeter tone. I know she's very hard edged but her voice to me should be sweet and angelic. =/

  • it was kinda ok at the beginning but then it kinda went..blargghhh XD

  • I don't like her voice. I think a sweet voice for Ai is better.. :s

  • this song wud be 100 times better if someone else sung it.

  • Is Ms. Love singing? O_o She wrote the Manga....

  • im a litle disapointed i though her vois was more like amy McDonld but i gues this is good to

  • great video

  • where did you get this video from

  • This song is ok... they could have done better. So, far its the best song from Princess Ai I've heard. Princess Ai needs a different singer.

  • This singer is alright, but she doesn't suit Princess Ai. :/ I was thinking more like... Amy Lee, you know?

  • @DrFokiii what about Emilie Autumn?

  • @SharpBloodyMoon Emilie Autumn is alright, :O she might do a good Ai. ... On second thought, Taylor Momsen would make a better Ai.

  • @IriyaStation hmm... I'd agree with you on this one, but I don't really thing that these songs are her style. Though they're also not Autumn's or Lee's style too.And they'd probably be so expensive to hire...TokyoPop ppl could just stick to the manga's storyline and find some gorgeous girl in the street. You know, raise a new talented star :3 I hope someone will knock on their door and say: "Yo, there's a blond beauty there with a heavenly voice, go offer her a contract!" ^^ Yeah, that'd be nice

  • @SharpBloodyMoon I didn't mean for actual realistic purposes, but their voices would suit it better. :P It's all theoretical, of course. The lyrics for Princess Ai are too dark too have such a generic sounding singer, is all... She's not terrible, but she could be better. But that really would be nice. ^^;

  • @DrFokiii I LOVE AMY LEE <3

  • @DrFokiii thats what i was thinking more of, like in the manga they made it sound like she had this amazing angel like voice.... and to me, amy lee is the closest thing that i have come to

  • @DrFokiii AGREE~

    BUT THIS SINGER is more then good enough for ai :O

  • @dannie12373 NOT her voice should be more...i dunno

  • @JiruTf2007 SO UR GANNA FIGHT ME NOW >.>

    DONT SPEECK TO YO MAMA LIKE TAT!! ;O

  • @dannie12373 relax, man I didn't mean to upset ya.

  • @JiruTf2007 :3 i like this video

    ur smart!

  • @dannie12373 i agree and thx

  • @JiruTf2007 UR SUPER WELCOME

    when poeple read this u know their ganna be like "wtf~?" :3 n im ganna be like "I ROCK TU WORLD"

  • @DrFokiii weird i was maybe thinking, uh courtney love?

  • @DrFokiii in the manga her voice is called angelic, so amy lee would be perfect because her voice really IS angelic. i love her!

  • I love manga about Princess Ai. It song amazing.

  • Ai can't have such a terrible voice :'< Wondering when they'll make anime and let's hope that the singer who gives voice to Ai is really stunning.

  • THe Manga was good. Hanvt seen the Anime.

    Love,

    Harumi <3

  • sound like knights of cyclonia fr. muse... O.o

  • love this song

  • someone that have the lyrics?

  • Is it sang by Courtney love?

  • nice i think this is the best of all the music videos

  • i love princess ai i read all her books and borrrowed

  • wow awsome

  • .....i think a dude should sing this because in the manga kent was the one who sang it, not ai

  • Princess Ai is hot

  • i though her voice would be more angelic like wakeshima kanon :P

  • i definitely agree but maybe a bit rougher and lower than hers

  • so true :)

  • ohh can somebody tell me wat is this anime about???

  • @gurl0108

    that's a manga....

  • oh i didnt know!i dont read manga!!

  • its only in manga and i manga

    i like reading it better. its about a girl call ai from ai land. at first she lost her memory because she ran away from ai land and ended up on earth etc...

  • It's an anime now, they haven't dubbed it for the US yet.

  • i must watch it XD i hope they got a better voice actress tho

  • its a manga actually, as for what it's about you should read it and find out

    it's a hard to explain exactly what it's about without spoilers

  • man its been a while since i read the manga....

  • I love her voice!!!!!She sounds like what i thought she would sound like

  • it's because Courtney only wrote "hold on to me". The rest is written by DJmilky...

    I am deeply depressed, because I thougt the songs would sound a little mor... "grungier"... by the influence of Courtney :'(

  • Okay so.... I thought Courtney would sing all the songs... but she didn't... why??? I don't like this woman who's singing very much... her voice is weird to me. u.u

  • wonder how many of you kids know this story is really about courtney love and kurt cobain...

  • Loosely >>;;

  • where can i watch this anime?

  • It's a manga. I think they might make an anime but it isn't one yet.

  • You can watch the imanga right here on youtube! :D

  • Awesome son!

  • How is tailschaoiscute's comment spam?

  • LOVE THIS SONG!!!!!!!!!! My friend cassie got me started me on the manga. this was my first princess ai song i heard and i know the words by heart to it.

  • I daydream my own version to the song and sometimes act it out in my video game

  • PRINCESS AI ROCKS!!!!!

  • ahehem....it's "looking down upon my PLEA.." some of ai's songs' full lyrics are included in my best friend's manga.....heheee. there. just an info. X )

    i lyk the song tho. just kind of disappointed at "ai's voice" at first. heeee ♥

  • some of parts of this vid look like an anime... like when you see the stands at 0:23 - 0:26 , 0:28-31 and a couple other parts... don't it????

  • wtf i never heard skye sing this bad!

  • I really like the song, it's arranged nicely, but the singer...I don't know, her voice isn't as good as you would hope. She's ok, it's just not great, you know? lol Courtney actually beats this voice, though I do prefer this singer's softer-voice rather then Courtney's rugged vocals..so I guess it's all right. Nice song.

  • @Angelfirestorm16 this is princess ai from the manga book

  • @MsKawaiiBat OK? Thanks for telling me? I know it's the book, I don't remember stating anything about whether it was or wasn't. I was just talking about the song..lol

  • @Angelfirestorm16 also by Courtney I mean Courtney Love, who inspired the story and even did the song for the promo commercial. Not to confuse people, since apparently I have.

  • good song...shitty voice....

  • i love the manga ive read it like 30 times

  • Good song. Video is good too

  • this is my fav song now :P

  • Can you please put a download link up for this song? not for the video.. but the song. Please! O:

  • It sounds like she says, "An angel up in my tower looking down upon my pee..." Is she saying "free?"

  • She said "plea"

  • Thanks for telling me XD

  • No problem, I got mixed two. :D

  • she sings plea XD

  • I think shes saying brea...

  • I'm confused now... :l

  • hahahahah!!!!! 'looking down upon my PEE......"

    thats genious xD

  • Well, it would make sense if it were a man... XD

    Thank you, thank you.

  • This isn't the "angelic voice" I expected... But it is good.

  • I want to know what´s the color of one of her clothes in the manga is the clothes she was when she sang whole !

  • i'd imagine this song was supposed to be a ballad....am i right?!?

  • this is really bad...

  • this is the shitest music vid ever! you think tokyo pop shop would do better

  • Try watching this over with "I Guess You're Right" by the Posies!

  • where can i find this show

  • im pretty sure there isnt one and this was just for the fun of it :)

  • whats the name of the band singing . the singer sounds kinda like the singer from jack off jill

  • is courtney love singing? if not she sould since princess ai is her alto ego

  • lol

    courtney is one of this manga creators :3

  • yeah i know ^_^ but it would be really cool if she was singing wouldn't it be? it would just make me love this song even more! lol

  • I agree with that

  • She sings in the band "Hole" I think. Listen to "Doll Parts." That Courtney singing.

  • This isn't Courtney Love singing but she did co-created the manga with Ai Yazawa, Misaho Kujiradou.

  • Yeah, I just figured that out. Ai is Courtney's alter-ego. The woman singing is Skye. I got the Ai Tunes CD and figured it out.

  • i wish she accualy said somthing that sounded like plea not pee

  • Haha, It does sound like pee! Actually...It sounds like she said 'pee' exactly; The first time atleast. o__o;

  • O.o yesh it does

  • I don't really think you can make any music like Ai's, not because I would have any ide'er about how it would be, but still in the books they say she sings fantastic but this does'ent sound like anything like that...But the song is still okay -^^-

  • I actually was expecting something else. Like as many people said, its not.... It does not fit. I really think there could have been a better voice, although this person's is very beautiful, just not for Ai.

  • kinda disappointed, princess ai music sounds like something from the rocky horror pictures show D:!!!!

  • RAAAHH!!! I'm so dissapointed, couldn't it have been a more sweet voice and melodie with some rock. It sounds like a horror! T_T

  • @freakyfreak1994 Well the person who is singing her song is the real Princess Ai, this girl is the one who made up the story

  • @RyuketsuStitches really!!???i nevr new

  • It would be very cool if they made an acoustic version of this song, but "Kent" or a male vocalist singing the song instead. ^_^

  • I actually thought Courtney Love was going to do all the music, since this is nothing but a anime Sci-Fi version of her real life with Kurt.

  • you forgot its also a japanese version lol yea that would have been interesting

  • I did not forget. It's anime, so to me it just wasn't worth mentioning. But you're right it would be interesting! I do wonder when the anime of this is coming out, tho. I do have the 1st set of manga.  I haven't gotten her "Ai-Land Adventures" yet. I'll give Courtney credit for this: since she lost Kurt, this really is a nice (albeit pretty obvious) way of keeping his memory alive. She's lucky that she has the $, the man power, & the connections to pull it off. Some of us aren't so lucky.

  • Who is the singer of this song..? Because..I really wanna know.. I love her voice..:3 Could someone please tell me? x'D Thank you <3

  • skye

  • I know the singer's name is Skye... I wonder if it's Skye Sweetnam, it sounds like it could be at some points

  • Mhm.. it could be her, but I think it's an older person who sings this .. don't know why..mhm :3

  • Good song .. and nice pictures :P

    Love ''Princess Ai'' :D

    She is so wonderful.. and have a nice style!

  • ... this is the best vid of princess ai u know why cus with the onther ones ai is butt ugly :P they should get some one pretty to be ai i mean relly good singer tho

  • They could've chosen a better singer...

  • I agree, these songs were a little disappointment for me...

  • I think the Singer is doing well. She is having to work with some pretty bad lyrics after all. DJ Milky needs more poetry classes, its either cute but decent, or utterly horrid.

  • utterly horrid.

    its not just to do with the lyrics

    you cant really decide whether a song is good just by the music, or likewise just by the lyrics

    its just how well the vocalist can sing, the lyrics, how well the band plays, and whether the music really goes with the vocals

  • Agreed.

  • muy bueno!!

    espero el anime con ansias!!!

    yumi-chan....

  • I can hardly understand the words. At all. It's very amature. The song not the video.

  • where can i see this anime?

  • There ain't one yet. It's on it's way.

  • I'd love to hear Kent's version. :3

  • Yesterday I reed All The Mangas, and Just Couden't get Enough of Ai, so I searched for Prinsses Ai here on UTube and found this! I am so Happy i did that, I LOVE thin Song Ai Rocks!

  • I think that while the song is excellent, the video itself could have been done better. Maybe showing contrasting imagery to the lyrics would work better instead of just repeating the same images over and over.

  • Okay so by looking at the Music Video there seems to be an anime of this. WHERE IN HELL DO I FIND IT!!!!????

  • It's not out yet. They are still making it.

  • It doesn't exist right now. It's just a manga at the moment.

  • how in the world could i get the songs from princes ai on my mp3?is it possible??

  • Well, I recently bought "Princess Ai; The Prism of Midnight Dawn" manga, and it came with a cd called Ai Tunes. Though only two of the songs are from Princess Ai.

  • the Manga was sooo freakin AWSOME AND THIS SONG MAKES IT THAT MUCH BETTER!

  • Who sings? Is it Courtney Love?

  • Skye, not Courtney. Courtney's sound is much, much different. o-o At least, from what I've listened to.

  • I love the manga,and I really love this song :]

  • What the fuck does this have to do with Christina or Estelle?

  • I like this song, who edited this?

  • Cool

  • Finally a half-decent Ai video.

  • I know it's not her, but her voice sounds like Gwen Stefani.

  • yeah your right.. but the one singing is named Skye - or something like that.

  • so THATS what Ai sounds like. I have all her comics (read them all) and I tried to imagine what she might have sounded like, she's so pretty IM IN LOVE! And with Kent too!

  • Dude I cant wait for Princess Ai-Prism of the Midnight Dawn manga comes out Dec 9th, i checked it out at the barnes and nobel website

  • i want to hear it in japanese and i wonder if princess ai is going to become an show....that would be interesting. i think it would sound better in japanese anyway.

  • i'm addicted....just love this song..and this vid is just perfect...

  • compare the anime clips in this video to the anime clips from the upcoming movie in "broken leash". the anime clips in this video are much better put together and less cartoonish.

  • These are only coloured images from the manga save for maybe three parts in there. Considering that it is a manga of course they're going to be animed. I thought Broken Leash was terrible with the way they did it honestly. This one is still a little annoying but at least it's better I suppose if you like vector.

  • well its a manga here duh!

  • Check out the full Ai album on iTunes now!

  • omg! you can see some clips on the movie! esspecially like around 3:20!

  • in my tokyopop magazine, it said around 2009

  • WHERE CAN I GET THIS MAGAZINE?!?!?

  • well they dont print them anymore. i think they stopped printing them around the summer of 2007. it was to promote things and manga but i guess it didnt work out or something.

  • hey is this a amia if so can someone tell me wher to find it
