Do You Like Shiina Ringo?
 
As many of you had said in the past, she's a bit of an acquired taste and her voice IS a bit nasally. I personally think she's great, but what do you think of one of the most influential J-Rock artists? :)

Hazuki 21st July 2008 08:53 PM

She is one of my favorite artists.

~ayu-cake~ 21st July 2008 08:54 PM

I LOVE Shiina Ringo :)

ayu-mix91 21st July 2008 11:47 PM

She's one of my favourite artists. =]

Miku 22nd July 2008 12:41 AM

of course Shiina is one of my favorite artists ^^
I love her in Tokyo Jihen ^^

TITANIC 22nd July 2008 10:17 AM

She's Ok.. Not realli like her song

KuroixShiroi_Namida 22nd July 2008 10:18 AM

Her music is awesome! I especially like her in Tokyo Jihen XD! OSCA is so fun LOL!

Yoake 22nd July 2008 10:29 AM

I love some her songs. So I voted She's okay

ville 22nd July 2008 01:55 PM

She is okay .. ;> not good but not bad either..

Foxxy_Fuyumi 22nd July 2008 02:13 PM

I downloaded all her stuff. I like her, of course is not the one for me, but she is a truly artist. I love her style, way of think, she is very original!

WillofDusk 22nd July 2008 02:18 PM

She's freaking talented in every way. I liked her after I listened to OSCA but she became one of my fav artists after I watched Sakuran movie and downloaded the movie's music.
HER MUSIC IS AWESOME!!!!

My fave song from her would be Gamble, man it's so epic

CatGirl 22nd July 2008 11:46 PM

I'm not the biggest fan of her, but she's pretty okay xD I love Yokushitsu and Identity~

paper_doll 23rd July 2008 01:43 AM

I voted, "She's great, but not the "best" out there." Her early stuff is fantastic, actually, I love it all the way up to (and including) Karuki Zamen Kuri no Hana.

bondingo 26th July 2008 01:54 AM

Shiina Ringo is an amazing artist, even if I don't like what she's done since she joined Tokyo Jihen nearly as much as her earlier work.

Pieces_of_SEVEN 27th May 2010 06:04 PM

mediocre

2Hurt 27th May 2010 06:05 PM

I don't like her, but thats just personal taste :)

JackieRos 27th May 2010 10:49 PM

she's great but not the best

C+R+E+AYUMI 28th May 2010 10:58 AM

I couldn't ever listen to one full song

Midori-chan 3rd August 2010 02:40 PM

Yes, I LOVE her! :heart
She is one of the best artists ever. I really enjoy her music and her lyrics very much.

But I like her better solo (her music is better!) and not in a band.

Damita 10th August 2010 09:32 AM

One of the best, most original artists ever. I appreciate how much creativity she puts into her music. You can tell simply by her choice of instrumentation on most of her songs, especially on Karuki Zamen Kuri no Hana.

I love Tokyo Jihen as well.

love in music 23rd August 2010 09:29 AM

She's pretty bad. Her voice sounds bad, her music sounds bad, she's just bad...x.x

SURREAL__RAINBOW 23rd August 2010 11:06 AM

She's great

aqua_crystal 23rd August 2010 04:20 PM

Mediocre. I REALLY tried to like her, but I just can't. Oh well.

noisy_harmony 29th August 2010 01:38 AM

She's amazing:heart

amorphose 1st September 2010 01:31 AM

She's one of the greatest Japanese artists ever! :luv2

emi♡ 1st September 2010 04:19 AM

I have a lot of respect for Shiina Ringo, because I know what a great musician she is, and how creative and incredibly complex her works can be.

I mean come on, how many artists can achieve symmetry of a tracklist lol

But, I can't get over her voice, and I'm just over her style of music right now...so I don't really like her music.

She is really unique though, and she IS one of the best artists to come out of Japan...but I think its hard to both say that, and not like her music, in this poll...

so...no vote lol

yuki_unmei 3rd September 2010 10:26 AM

no...her voice ><

Chibi-Chan 30th November 2010 01:24 PM

She's great, but not the "best" out there.

Melodie 30th November 2010 03:42 PM

I quite like her, but she isn't a favourite of mine.

StarSUCKER 3rd December 2010 07:48 PM

She's a badass. :yes

Lady~Deviance 21st December 2010 11:50 PM

"She's great, but not the "best" out there."

I ADORE Shiina Ringo, especially Tokyo Jihen. But at the same time I don't think she's the greatest thing since sliced bread. ;)

ame-na-otoko 26th December 2010 08:15 PM

I definitely think that Ringo is an acquired taste. It's rather difficult to get over her voice at first but the best thing to do is approach her with a musician's mind. It was rather easy for me because I play guitar and it's plain to see she is a fantastic musician and songwriter. The melodies are beautifully composed and the lyrics are insanely well written.

Even if you can't get past her voice I feel it's just bad form to say she's a bad songwriter.

NintendoHTF1242 26th December 2010 09:43 PM

She makes some truly unique music. It does take a while to get used to her voice but once you do her music is pure bliss.

Warren 8th October 2016 11:23 PM

I was really hesitant to get into her because of her nasal voice. But I was obsessed with her album art so I gave her a shot. I'm only 4 albums in and she's already my favorite Japanese artist of all time hands down. (Her voice is actually really diverse) don't let anything you've heard scare you off. I guarantee she'll have material you'll love. She's beyond diverse.

koumori 8th October 2016 11:25 PM

I love her :heart

visionfactory 8th October 2016 11:31 PM

She has some really good songs but I can't stand her cutesy voice

There are parts in her songs where she sings with her real voice (And it's really adult-like voice) but then she switchs to this annoying voice I can't stand

Yeah that was one of the reasons I was hesitant to get into her. But her "adult" voice is sublime. And her cutesy voice is growing on me it really works sometimes.

No cutesy voice what so ever:

Better performance where she switches between voices:

Pretty surprised I prefer the last performance considering she switches voices. But overall it's just amazing. She looks so good and it's more raw and powerful.

YUKARI 10th October 2016 08:41 AM

I always liked her! And I think she's one of the best. In my personal top she's really close to Utada and Ayu as they all were "douki". She's better than Koda Kumi for me.

oaristos 8th September 2017 01:59 AM

She's probably one of the greatest Japanese artists ever, but I never find myself listening to her. At least not often.

Sky High 31st January 2018 07:04 AM

Love Shina
