KOKIA - Ave Maria ( Live )

[plmok090]

kokiaは音大の声楽専攻コースでクラシックをやってたから

オペラはいわば本職ですよ。

[arunana57]

何かと比べるとか無意味

この透き通った声を聞けるだけで幸せ

[yumeyaichiroh]

凄い。

まあ、プロの凄腕オペラ歌手に比べれば、まだ勉強の余地はあるだ­ろうけど、

今、日本のいわゆる「歌手」と呼ばれる人で、アヴェ・マリアをこ­れだけ歌える人はいないと思う。



[Alexor85]

I shall hold this glass full of bowmore, for those who are gone before us, and for those who are to come.

[MrWhiterose00]

There's an aura of saint about her .The angelic voice washes away something impure in my heart.Thank you, KOKIA.

[chooonemui]

このｱｳﾞｪﾏﾘｱ好きだなぁ。なんか溶けてゆくかんじかする。­

[emblem333]

本当にすごい。ゆっくりとだけど、必ず国境を越えて広がっていく­曲だと思うよ。

[rekinews]

心が…震えた。

[KziraLee]

I love how she sings, so beautiful!

but I don't like the meaning of the song. Mary is not the one we should hail but Christ Himself!

[bajubner]

@KziraLee Wouldn't your Christ not exist of it weren't for Mary?

[KziraLee]

@bajubner yes that's true since Mary gave birth to Christ but she's not perfect and all powerful like Christ. Oh well! w believe differently =P

[Izyume]

I love this song... Don't like what it stands for... but love this song! and Kokia sounds beautiful!

[nikogori0417]

Awesome!!!

kokia is my goddess!!!

[pereztaastic]

even though i dont know what shes saying....its so beautiful all her songs i get shivers from....literally..

[Izyume]

@pereztaastic

she is saying "ave Maria" and "ohhhhh ahhhh" .... and thats pretty much it...

and "Ave Maria" means "Hail Mary" in latin.

Which is something we should "not do" actually... but yeah....

[KPengiko]

I love it, I love it, I love it, I love it, I love it, I love it, I love it, I love it, I love it, I love it, I looooooooove it! This version with Kokia is awesome!

[keichan4rarara]

これはすごい・・・

[MrHahahahohoho123]

大発見！　こんな綺麗で上手に歌う子が日本にいたとは知らなかった。

全く、日本のマスコミメディア関係者は何をしとるんだ！ちゃんと­仕事せい！



[NewDivded]

Very beautiful! She is like a tenshi no Kami. (Angel of God)

[chesedchesed]

@NewDivded thant would be more like "Kami no Tenshi" ;) but thumbs up for you!

[NewDivded]

@chesedchesed Yaya! xD Almost right.

[catijusto69]

Oh god... That final note... ;___; It's a pity she hardly does songs like this, she generally sing pop-like songs... ;_;

[lalala4315]

うん良い

最高

[nuppon]

こういう人が出てくる機会こそ与えられるべきである。

今のメディアは政治以上に腐ってる。

[mexcom2]

una de las mas hermosas voces que he escuchado

[yesasopasomaso]

淡々と歌っているようで、心に響く・・・

すごい表現力です。

[UndercoverCracker]

Her voice blows most peoples away.

[waitakere2009]

寒流とか興味ない。kokiaを聴きたい。



[asariume]

心が洗われた・・・

[princesslovelc]

Its amazing how she can make her voice go up and down so easily. Truly amazing

[Chandiertje]

...goosebumps...thats all I can say...

[kikutukibun]

泣いてしもた・・・

感動した

[cherrydesuga]

@gurasunonakanomizu

評価する人は評価してるし、下手にメディアに取り上げられて、汚­されるよりマシだと思いますよ。

[luvunick0013]

beautiful just beautiful

[williamhorsom]

超好聽~

[aaaniime]

so powerful!

[theheartofpaul]

For the first time in years, I had 4 minutes of peace because my mind actually shut up to listen to this.

[12144431]

歌手が売れないのをメディアのせいにするファンって大体が気持ち­悪いんだよな

なんでもかんでもマスコミマスコミってよ

自分が正等に評価できてると思うならそれでいいじゃん

[kyo374]

@12144431 テレビに洗脳されてる奴がそこら中に居るんだから

考え方としては間違って無いと思うんだが。。。

[BelleroseButterfly]

Kokia took this song to a whole new level of beautiful! She is truly amazing :)

[CornellDeacon]

Whoa.This is the way to respect religion

[MrNackLee]

@CornellDeacon You mean this is the only thing that's good that came out of religion.

[misojin33]

所詮はJ-POP、本職の声楽家に比べたら聴くも無残だろｗ

そう思ってました。ゴメンナサイ

[tadworld]

@misojin33  コキアのオリジナルのil mare dei suoniのライブも聴いてみてください。J-POPの枠など消­し飛んでしまう声に遭遇します。

[sto052]

人気だけが全てじゃない。

むしろ彼女を知らない人は損してるって思うと自分は幸せだって思­うよｗ

[tapayaan]

鳥肌がたった。何かうまく言い表せないけど、スゴイ。

[chijurl]

yes, kokia, you are true Ave Maria.

[DarkHatoyan]

もはや女神様かと。

[UndercoverCracker]

She delivers my favorite performance of this song. 

[UndercoverCracker]

One question why doesn't this video have 300000000 like Lady Gaga....

[eternity00000]

@UndercoverCracker

because only 20% of the world's best people deserves to hear the best 80% music

[fergoka]

@UndercoverCracker Becose the brainwash, my blackhat mate, becose the brainwash...

[UndercoverCracker]

@fergoka Blackhat? lol

[UndercoverCracker]

Some of the best control I've heard EVER. I can't stop searching her songs becasue she keeps impressing me.

[KOICHHHI]

@tarou3917

いや一般日本人の美的センスじゃなく、売り手側の売り方の問題だ­と思うよ。あとは、マスコミ。全然取り上げないじゃん？

テレビでコンスタントに紹介されるようになれば、人気出るはずだ­よ。

だってまず日本人ですら、彼女のことを知らない人がほとんどなん­だから、人気の前に知名度が無い。

マスコミがクズってことだ。

[kyo374]

@KOICHHHI

しかしこの手の歌手は一度話題になってもすぐ消えるよね何故か

[hiphopnao]

@kyo374

マスコミは話題のあるときしか取り上げないからね。

消えるというより･･･人気が落ち着くんじゃないですか。

この人はもっと知名度が上がれば確実に固定ファンは増えますよ。­

[tyokoreito1985]

@KOICHHHI さん

日本では有名になりたくない節があるそうなのでおそらくＫＯＫＩ­Ａさん自身の働きかけもあっての事だと思います♪なんでかはなん­となく、いやものすごく分かりますよね。。

[koreansatsuke]

I love her voice . Is she singing the italian version of ave maria ?

[Aretha45001]

what a voice O.O

[hoai90]

I like Kokia's song and her voice!

Thanks for post:)

[rick4282]

Bravo!

[s14attack]

wow, Love this song.

[nrk27366]

日本らしいポップな歌い方のアヴェ・マリア。

KOKIAの一番はやっぱThe power of smile　でしょ。

[missjiffmanedged]

The angels in heaven must be crying for their loss of this beautiful voice missing in their choir. Absolutely love Kokia!

[MegaHyunah]

wonderful!! *_*

[makimaro]

KOKIAさんはアルバムよりもライブの方が圧倒的に素晴らしい­

[yassy588]

ほんと。これは、鳥肌。何故、有名じやない。

だから、今のＴＶつまんないんだよねー。

まず、ＴＶで流れないでしょー、こういうの。

[tomboy313]

THIS IS BEAUTIFUL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! is this a relgious song or just something she sang for fun?

[firefly328]

鳥肌が立った　なんて声をしてるんだ・・・

[tadworld]

日本人はいつになったら自国のこの歌手の素晴らしさに気付くのだ­ろう。

[tarou3917]

@gurasunonakanomizu

日本人だがこの動画みるまで知らなかった。なぜ日本ではこのよう­なすばらしい歌手が埋もれていくのだ。やっぱり日本人は美的セン­スがちょっとずれてるかもしんないね。。。私もそうおもいます。­鳥肌もんだ

[Repnek1989]

WoW xD i ́m happy

[moello888]

Felt like I touched the heaven...

[Tatsuzuki001]

Holy shiza!!!! And to think that I just found out abut her a few days ago...I feel ashamed for not knowing her awesome music sooner

[hanhyejinaddikt02]

Who gives a damn about the message of the song? KOKIA's freakin' awesome. That's what matters. And the song has only one lyrics. Ave Maria.

[CHONOINK]

She is few Christians in Japan.

[VincentValentine678]

@CHONOINK Are Christians that rare in Japan? Or are they so open that they practise most religious beliefs instead of sticking to one like KOKIA here? She is beautiful her isn't she? Lovely voice. Amazing.

[knleung1]

Christians and Catholic have different interpretation of vigin Mary. Some chrisitans may not like such kind of songs. Also, Kokia seldom composes love songs which like other JPOP singers.Somehow, she got low sales of CD. I think she born in Europe would definitely gain more publicity. She should perform on large stage (world stage).

[teddythebenny]

@knleung1 shes christian.

[teddythebenny]

@VincentValentine678 .. i think theres a bit over 1 million japanese christians.. there was a purge of japanese christians during the edo period.. and yet, the japanese, whoever they may be, celebrate birthdays, and celebrate christmas.. although a secular society at heart, in open appearance, a great deal of japanese society endorse the principals of westernisation, better then some other western countries.

[VincentValentine678]

@teddythebenny So, they are better at religion/spiritual idontknowwhat than western countries??? Thank you for the info. Gokigenyou.

[teddythebenny]

@VincentValentine678 ... put it this way, ultra modernism, while maintaining traditionalism and culture heritage. westernisation and globalisation, have in many other countries, led to, cultural loss, and at times social, and national identity. look at Britain and France in the last 50 odd years, cultural shocks, social identity loss, the loss of their empires and colonial enterprises, led to the loss of a character of national identity.. .

[teddythebenny]

@VincentValentine678 .. but then again thats my perspective.. i suppose the Japanese are better at adaptation, then assimilation.

[nyanko742]

なんだろう。この気持ち。言い表せない。

メディアに触れない生き方になりつつある私には彼女の歌と出会え­たのは幸運だった。感謝します

[VincentValentine678]

That was amazing. Brilliant. It moved me her voice. Even though I'm a muslim, I love her voice and this song. This is truly amazing. I just love it. Although the one on the album is better in my opinion.

[ShadowImp666]

@VincentValentine678 excuse me- i'm not in any way trying to be rude, but may i ask how being a muslim affects what music you like?

and isn't she just wonderful :)

[VincentValentine678]

@ShadowImp666 Well, this is a music intended in a way for Christians right? I don't really understand, but that's what I think. But I read that being a muslim and listening to this kind of song is sinful. especially if I willingly listen to it. Even Christmas songs aren't allowed. More so this T_T I love this song/melody.

Yes, I agree, she is absolutely wonderful. I'm glad to have listened to this song.

[ShadowImp666]

@VincentValentine678 Ah I didn't know it was intended for Christians. why is it sinful for muslims to listen to it? Sorry, now I'm intrigued! :)

[VincentValentine678]

@ShadowImp666 So in a way it's not for Christians? Yay... But this song is about the Virgin Mary right? Well, about why it's sinful I don't know... Maybe it's just me thinking too much...

[VincentValentine678]

@ShadowImp666 Sorry I don't have much knowledge about what being a muslim really means... You could say that I'm an open minded muslim, and I thank my God for a chance to hear this song sung by this voice... Ahh~ I'm in love~

[FlowerEmblem]

@VincentValentine678

Even though you're a Muslim and this is a Christian song, it shouldn't matter, because music is universal...maybe it all comes down to your own personal belief, although I'm not you, and I don't have your experience...:) For me, I believe that it doesn't matter, as long as I know something's wrong, remember that it's wrong and focus on the music instead of the lyrics (i.e. listening to rap songs with swear words against my beliefs in it...I'm Christian, btw xD)

[VincentValentine678]

@FlowerEmblem Yes, the reason I love this is because of her voice and music. I guess I can take your advice to heart by concentrating on only the voice and not lyrics... But I wont have much fun because I like to sing along as I listen to it. It's just wonderful. So, in a way, thank you for saying that music, no matter what kind, or religion is meant for people to listen to. Rap is offensive to Christians, you... Well, I don't listen to rap, and I can't understand a word they say. Anyway, thanks

[niwaton69]

sorry... me again. I'd like to say tks to poochie2poochie33 for uploading video clips with good sound quality. Even so, I'll still get her CDs. Can't wait to hear how it sounds on HiFi, hee...

[alexis9000]

OMFG, WHAT A VOICE!!! Doesn't even look like a japanese voice!!! O.O

[ahpeklimteh]

hee... it's me again... i chanced upon some other versions of Caccini's Ave Maria, and i just had to listen to this again. I totally agree with unwingedangel: passionate, clean, flawless. Her vocal control is really very clean & flawless, just listen to other version in youtube and you'll know what i mean.

[unwingedangel]

Oh, my god. This song gives me shivers. This songs is so absolutely amazing and she sings in such a passionate, clean, flawless way that it seems impossible not to like this song.

[ahpeklimteh]

I used to think Kokia as being very talented and blessed with an angelic voice.

After listening to this, i still do, only now i've also impressed by her vocal control.

[poochie2poochie33]

well if thats how you used to think then welcome to the world of kokia ^_~ if you go in depth in her music you will find that she is very versatile artist. you need check out "follow the nightingale", "il mare de suoni", "chouwa ~with reflection", and tons more from her. you will love her!! trust me!! she has very mixed stles that can please many!!

[fantasyfrk24]
