I don't think Halko's voice suits this song very much. She sounds really strained and nasally, especially near the end. I'm an Aya fan, but I agree she did terrible at Gekisou. But if you watch Unnamed World live, or the recording of Lost my Music you can see she CAN sing well and it's not all studio.
Well, it would be better if she didn't TRY to imitate Aya in this song but rather sing it in her own unique way (not the is it called Wonder momoi, the one that sounds like a game, don't remember)
Well I don't know about Halko Momoi not hitting those high notes. She can sing squeaky songs pretty well, like her songs "Love Slave" and "Kujibiki Unbalance"
Hirano has a more powerful voice but compared to Momoi, she's raw and untrained. She could develop into a very good singer, but she's purely a product of good post production right now.
Of course, it's a little unfair to compare these two right now, seeing as how Momoi has many more years of experience under her belt...
Hirano-has a nice tone, but she her singing can be really nasal. its her energy that makes me like some of her music, but i still think she needs more training. she has vocal power that i would like to hear more control of.
Halko-clearly high notes are not her thing, but she has a steady singing voice and a lot of experience and good range. rock songs seems very out of her element though.
Halko Momoi has a much greater range of tone than Aya Hirano. Hirano and Momoi was in the same concert stage when I went to their life performances, and Hirano sounded horrible while Momoi sounded great. Too many fanboys tried to defend Hirano by saying that it was the stage's fault, but the other singers sang great in the same stage.
Some people would say the same thing about Halko. Personally, I like both of them but I don't think Halko's voice would suit Haruhi as well as Aya's does.
Hirano's voice sounds bad in real life. I went to her live concert and I was so disappointed. I found out that they edited her voice in the record version...
Actually, they don't edit her voice. Live concerts sound different because of how the sound is bouncing off a large space, through mic, with Hirano often bouncing around without being able to rest and such.
Momoi Haruko is an AMAZING singer! But I like her cuter voice she uses to sing her other songs... *_* Like Icchae Popotan! And Anata ga Dai Kirai!! But Momoi Haruko's amazing at singing nonetheless, and Aya Hirano's REALLY good too!!! XDDD
Hirano has wonderful range, and she's naturally a soprano. Momoi doesn't seem to have the same strength, but perhaps that's just how she's singing the song for dramatic effect? (Although, it's a bit meh. :/)
It's cool to hear her actually managing to sing like Aya, but I think she forced herself too much to sound like Aya Hirano - it's like she is trying to exactly copy the way the song was sung, I think instead Momoi should have just sung the way she usually sings - simply in *her* style.
I honestly don't think she sounds like Hirano at all. I mean, same tone, but I didn't think she was trying to sound like Hirano. Sounded more like she was trying to make the song her own as much as possible, actually. D:
Just because it's different from the original doesn't mean it sucks you crazy fanboys. She's a pretty good singer I don't what some of you are talking about.
her voice is cool and all, but the song doesn't really match it, her voice sounds like it would sound better in pop and stuff, I prefer Aya Hirano's voice on this song, though it was well sung ^^
Wow. You were right. It does sound like Haruhi. But! Since I'm a Momoi fan, this is VERY interesting. I've heard Purin no Uta and agreed that it sounds like her even a little, but right now...it's hard to tell o_0

i dont know what the first part of your comment is addressing exactly.
what i mean with Halko is, she has to yell, and it sounds more like a vocal strain.
she can get a high pitch note, but it doesn't sound very steady.
though i am critical of Hirano, listen to her raise her voice and hit high notes smoothly, and hold them.
