sorry to hear that... im hoping its getting better soon... ^^ i think its getting better since in a museum she almost never do out of tune... ^^ and about her rivalry... i think both of them arent rival... ^^ but both of them are competiting... ^^ but in distance vs a best... i think ayu won that... i dunno

poor ayu

I hope ayu gets better. But I still think she could use a good break.

sorry to hear about this
 

i've had some loss of hearing too... i am lucky i can still keep in tune and in pitch, but sometimes when i play it all sounds a little blurry... its hard to explain. but i can understand what she is going through.

the best treatment that has worked is to not keep loud sounds/music close ... but i guess that is impossible for ayumi when she does her concerts...ayu my heart goes out to you and i really hope you get better soon!
