Oricon - Artist you'd like to sing at your marriage ceremony
 
From May 14th to May 20th of 2009, Oricon's own survey panel (Oricon Monitor Research) interviewed a total of 800 people (200 each of both males and females in their teens and twenties) to get the following rankings:

There're many of such polls available via http://contents.oricon.co.jp/music/s...090603_01.html but I just post the one with ayumi's name on it xD

Artist you'd like to sing at your marriage ceremony

1. Kobukuro
2. Mr. Children
3. Yuzu
4. Amuro Namie
5. aiko
6. DREAMS COME TRUE
7. Remioromen
8. ayaka
9. Arashi
10. hamasaki ayumi

OK I don't know if this's a good or bad thing but I never really consider her as a wedding singer of sorts but ah well

look at Kobukuro & Mr. Children go :O & YAY for ARASHI on the sideline xD

hearted 4th June 2009 04:08 PM

i think its a good thing! i would love to have my favorite signer at my wedding :OOOOO (omg my husband would die then if he saw me drooling over da dbsk boys :roflmao)

CONGRATS TO AYU NAMIE AND AIKO!!!!!

noidea 4th June 2009 04:09 PM

I wouldn't want Namie at my marriage, her music doesnt really fit a marriage IMO xD And Ayu...she can sing M xD

hearted 4th June 2009 04:11 PM

^ i thought CAN YOU CELEBRATE was #1 wedding song in japan? :O

lol i already see her singing want me want me to the groom XDD

Rocky Raven 4th June 2009 04:13 PM

@ noidea: =/ Every artist has their own ballad songs, Namie's music does have some very nice song for a wedding time(If U have listened enough to her music u will know that, not only her current songs)
The result list is really interesting imo =D! I want Ayu to sing...humn...Days on my Wedding lol!

KarenPang 4th June 2009 04:14 PM

M's like the only wedding inspired song I can think of her so I guess it's fitting

I don't know for Kobukuro honestly @_@ , I think Tsubomi can be considered ?

ARASHI - Oh they can sing One Love to me anytime of the day xD xD . I always remember the scenes from Hana Yori Dango final when it was played at the ending credits of the movie :heart & their live performance & the PV is just :smitten :smitten

sad that there's no chance of me to see a Domoyoji Jr :weep

ayumisrael 4th June 2009 04:14 PM

Congratulations to ayu and namie again :laugh

One of my japanese friend's sister had Voyage playing when they went to the priest to marry in their marriage ceremony. =D
Voyage is one of ayu's ultimate love songs so I guess it fits.

JackieRos 4th June 2009 04:16 PM

where's gackt i want him to sing Fragance

well if not Mr. Children yay

ooh very nice , I guess you can count it in the wedding inspired mix songs of ayumi then

yup & also it wasn't named the best selling single for a female artiste for nothing

it's still a classic song after so many years since it was released

majrakun 4th June 2009 04:20 PM

I'd love for Dreams Come True to sing at my wedding :laugh They could sing SUNSHINE or Spoon me, Baby me! lol

ayumisrael 4th June 2009 04:26 PM

5 Songs of ayu I thing could fit to weddings are:

Days, Voyage, Close to you, Curtain call, CAROLS and maybe M XD

(I know I would like ayu to sing Days at my future marriage with junnosuke taguchi).

Lanz16 4th June 2009 04:27 PM

ahahahaha XD
A Funny poll indeed! :laugh

I would LOVE to sing Ayu on my marriage ceremony!
But her talent fee is :tired


Thanks for sharing! :D

PinkShinigami 4th June 2009 04:50 PM

That's so wierd o.o Should she sing Boss? XD

Minttulatte 4th June 2009 05:03 PM

I haven't ever thought of Ayu singing in my wedding. Personally I'd think that Namie would fit perfectly. CAN YOU CELEBRATE? is a wedding song imo. :)

aloopy 4th June 2009 05:03 PM

Namie - CAN YOU CELEBRATE? (Wedding Mix)
Ayu - Close to you

i think those are perfect wedding songs xD

congrats to them & the others!

MissElin_ 4th June 2009 05:12 PM

Haha oh Oricon... Don't ever stop giving us those weird polls... :P

SolarAngel 4th June 2009 05:26 PM

None!! I want to sing my own songs... I don't like this poll...

octocoffee 4th June 2009 05:46 PM

xD Arashi singing at a wedding. The bride would rethink marriage, I'm sure.

But having Ayu sing at my wedding would be epic. Well, I think I'd just get the orchestra to play one of her songs. I think JEWEL or Dearest would be nice.

ren'ai 4th June 2009 05:52 PM

XD such a weird poll! haha congrats to Ayu
I'd love her to sing Dearest <3

AyUta 4th June 2009 05:59 PM

Yay for Ayu, Namie, and ayaka! :clapclap Well...Ayu's songs would do well at a wedding because you don't have to only have ballads. There's the freestyle dances at weddings to upbeat music. Some of Ayu's songs would be so fun to dance and sing along to!

Mitkki 4th June 2009 06:02 PM

She's also #5 on "famous person wanted to produce the wedding"

I think that Sparkle would perfectly fit the dance part :laugh

daybreak123 4th June 2009 06:08 PM

It would be awesome if Ayu would sing on my wedding... I can't even imagine it. xD But if it would happen, I'd like her to sing M. It really fits perfectly in the wedding theme. Dearest is still my favorite song, but it's too sad for wedding imo. I wouldn't like to cry in my wedding because Ayu is singing about eternal sleep. Oh, and yes, Days would be amazing song for wedding too. And maybe girlish?

aqua_crystal 4th June 2009 06:26 PM

Namie at a wedding??? :tired Loooool!!!

But I wouldn't mind Ayu singing a song like M (H/\L's Progress on my wedding.

Ayumi27 4th June 2009 06:35 PM

Cool

I wouldn't mind having Ayu performing a SEASONS/Dearest/Voyage/CAROLS/JEWEL medley at my wedding
Or M walking down the aisle if she was my bride! LOL

AyumiBest 4th June 2009 06:39 PM

I really don't know if this is a good thing...XD I can hardly think of an Ayu song as a wedding song.

Boss! I can't live without you!

agashi 4th June 2009 06:42 PM

wedding singer?
:D its amazing if she is singing acapella version and then acoustic orchestra version of her songs~ sweeeet!!!

waterballoon 4th June 2009 06:49 PM

- starts DREAM -

I would love for her to sing Days when my crush and I get married... it's really our theme, honestly lol~

- ends DREAM -

Congrats, Ayu!

C+R+E+AYUMI 4th June 2009 06:56 PM

Namie before Ayu??? my god, i'd liek to have namie to my bday party not during my marriage..can you fugure out you entering in the church while namie is singing "ALARM"??
eh eh eh

aloopy 4th June 2009 07:02 PM

namie has alot of beautiful ballads.. one of them is actually the most played wedding song in japan *rolls eyes*.

namie's White Light/nobody would be a great wedding song as well

everlastingRAINBOW 4th June 2009 08:01 PM

Namie would definitely be at my wedding!

Larien 4th June 2009 08:08 PM

To be honest, as much as I absolutely adore and idolize Ayu, I don't think I'd want her to sing there. For a wedding, I think I'd rather have ayaka.

Andrenekoi 4th June 2009 08:14 PM

I would not like to hear ayu singing a song about eternal sleep or ending of relationship or loving someone that doesn't love me at my wedding xD

So... no Dearest, no M, no Days xD
Voyage would be nice... Moments too...

Lee_410 4th June 2009 08:18 PM

Why do I get the feeling that I already saw this?Maybe it was on JPM...

rakeru 4th June 2009 08:25 PM

i couldn't have Ayu at my wedding; she'd show me up!

(and a boyband? ew, weddings are supposed to be dignified.)

Izzette 4th June 2009 08:42 PM

I think it would be awesome to have Ayumi sing at my wedding. I'd want her to sing Surreal for some reason. LOL! I just love that song.

And I'd want Namie Amuro to sing "Come" at my wedding.

And if Ayaka was there I'd want her to sing I think its called Mikaduki or Mikazuki or whatever her song is that translates to "Crescent Moon" or "Jewelry Day".

Edit:
I love the comment above about Boy bands! LOL!

dreamland2.0 4th June 2009 08:57 PM

How nice!!
It would be nice to sing Far Away or fated maybe!
I don't think I'd like Namie to sing Can you celebrate - even if it's the most played wedding song, it makes my ears bleed :tired

I think it would be nice for Hikki to sing Passion at a wedding though!

Since I'm not Japanese, lyrics don't really matter, as no one would be able to understand them anyway!!!

milky_way 4th June 2009 09:54 PM

Ayu has some depressing lyrics, so I don't think I'd have her sing at my wedding.

Uemarasan 4th June 2009 10:13 PM

Uh, hello? Why hasn't anyone mentioned Love? It's the obvious choice for a wedding song. Voyage, also, is a great choice. Who..., of course.

I've always thought Days was a song about unrequited love, about how it can just be as fulfilling as love that is reciprocated. Especially when Ayu sings this part in isolation: "I've known for a long time that you have someone precious/Because it's clear from your smile". It's the only way the next lines about feeling sad make sense and why Ayu would write "I expect nothing special from you/Can I stay loving you forever/Just like this?", so I don't think it would make a good wedding song :P M is about the transience of human relationships. Fated is about the struggle to reconcile the idea of fate with the reality of a failed relationship. And Far Away ends with "a summer without you". Guys, read the lyrics first :)

Dearest, even if it sounds melancholy, is as good a wedding song as Voyage, lyrics-wise. Close to You, Carols, Moments, Jewel, or even a less upbeat version of Angel's Song can work, too.

rookies 4th June 2009 10:20 PM

Congrats to both Ayu and Namie. :)

NintendoHTF1242 4th June 2009 10:31 PM

I'd tell Namie to sing CAN YOU CELEBRATE

then start singing WANT ME, WANT ME to get the party jumpin' ;D

koumori 4th June 2009 10:52 PM

Oh yay! Arashi, Namie and Ayu all made it! <3 This is such a cool poll! <3

I'd love Namie to sing Wishing On The Same Star and Ayu to sing..hmmm...Curtain Call or...Evolution to start off the party! XD Get everyone to sing along~~ WOW YEAAAH WOW YEAAAAH <3 ^___~

love in music 4th June 2009 11:02 PM

HEAVEN, RAINBOW, or Curtain call would be good ayu wedding songs :yes

RikkuChii 4th June 2009 11:23 PM

I can see why Namie's up there! I would want CAN YOU CELEBRATE? sung at my wedding by Namie!

ストロボ・EdGE 4th June 2009 11:55 PM

Yay for ayaka! Who wouldn't want her to sing at their wedding? Or Kobukuro for that matter ^^

What sort of Ayu songs are playable at a wedding? HEAVEN maybe?

Ayumiko 5th June 2009 12:36 AM

they're all good choices...especially ayu, namie, and arashi.

i love these lines. perfect for a wedding

"We sought for each other
Lost ourselves at times
And found each other at last
So whatever result may be waiting for us

It's nothing but
Destiny "

a_kingdom21 5th June 2009 03:36 AM

i dunt wanna ayu sing on my wedding..
it will make me 2 be homeless in a day becuz i have to pay million yen to invite ayu..
LoL..

taskinillusion 5th June 2009 03:45 AM

I would have loved to have her sing at my wedding!! :heart

jeffycue 5th June 2009 03:46 AM

how come Yuna Ito ain't on the list! hmpf.

ono my dream wedding, im gonna invite Yuna to sing at our wedding and reception!

jbrat2219 5th June 2009 04:00 AM

I don't think Ayu would make a good wedding singer. A wedding day is suppose to be about the couple and I think Ayu would redirect that attention onto herself.

^ SEASONS and JEWEL would be so pretty! But...don't the lyrics have like...have endings in them? lol, that's the only problem. Dearest would be a very good candidate also.

pommy48 5th June 2009 07:46 AM

i think ayu's ballads would be great, though i can't really see namie seeing at weddings XD

Andrenekoi 5th June 2009 09:20 AM

Can you celebrate is the most used song for weddings in japan...

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fW1XuQHzIcs if someone doesn't know it

chloeM 5th June 2009 09:37 AM

i knew Karen would post something like this... thanks by the way~~

asmAyumi1992 5th June 2009 10:34 AM

If I got plenty of money and decided to marry, I'll pay Ayu to sing in my wedding ceremony XD !

pommy48 5th June 2009 10:44 AM

oh yeah i forgot about can you celebrate, but other than that..don't really see a lot of namie songs that fit a wedding~

AyUta 5th June 2009 05:59 PM

I didn't know Can You Celebrate was a wedding song...can someone post the lyrics? I wanna see. :).

keikeiaznqueen 5th June 2009 06:21 PM

Voyage, Moments, Love ~destiny~, Who..., and even MY ALL, Replace, winding road. Happy lyric songs. :D

Yeah, it'd be great if Ayu'd sing at my wedding. XD

english lyrics :P
Spoiler:

Can you celebrate? Can you kiss me tonight?
We will love long long time
I didn’t know what the word “eternity” meant

(Can you celebrate? Can you kiss me tonight?)
(We will love long long time)
It’s just the two of us, I’m a little shy about what’s coming after tonight

La la la...la la la...

Someone who’ll watch over me for a long…long time…always
I searched for that person, found him, lost him and searched again

Distant and scary, but there have been some wonderful nights
Some wonderful smiles, all I can do is let the wind carry me
That’s how I’m living my life, but I still don’t think that’s a bad thing

La la la...la la la...

Looking back on the sweet, painful young love of my childhood
It was so cute

Someone who ran a course full of mistakes, fighting against something
Told me

(Can you celebrate? Can you kiss me tonight?)
(We will love long long time)
Wo…I can’t get away from my memories at all
That doesn’t mean I’m standing still, I’m crying floods of tears and I’m full of smiles

(Can you hold me tight? Let's a party time tonight)
(Say goodbye my lonely heart. Say hello forever)
I didn’t know what the word “eternity” meant

Can you celebrate? Can you kiss me tonight?
We will love (long long time)
It’s just the two of us, I’m looking forward to what’s coming after tonight

Can you celebrate? Can you kiss me tonight?

I can celebrate

kirei_ayumi 5th June 2009 09:39 PM

good job ayu!
I sure would love to have ayu at my wedding

Azmaria 5th June 2009 10:34 PM

congrats Ayu and Namie being in the top 10 ^^

but where is Gackt-sama, I would prefer him to sing in my wedding, Fragance or Seikai ~ Story or Love Letter

Gackt-sama's voice is just perfect and he has so many beautiful ballads ^^

Beffi 5th June 2009 11:30 PM

I'd rather see her singing the words, "I do" at my wedding. ;D
But that's great to see her in the poll, Namie and ayaka too. :]

gothicayu 6th June 2009 09:27 AM

id love amuro namie or hirai ken !

yoshino 6th June 2009 02:57 PM

wow.. this is great..! I think Ayu's ballads wld fit in.. nice poll!

Kazeyomi 6th June 2009 03:07 PM

Too bad there isn't Ken Hirai °_° some of his songs sounds perfect for a marriage ceremony

If I would ever get married I would want M to play there :luv2

ストロボ・EdGE 8th June 2009 10:32 PM

I wonder how much Ayu would charge, or any Japanese singer for that matter.

I heard one time on VH1 or MTV that Mariah Carey charges $50,000 for an appearance at a personal party.

Zacek 9th June 2009 10:02 AM

Very strange poll, like always!
I want Ayu in a higher place!

sanzo2011 9th June 2009 03:46 PM

I want her to sing SEASONS ! but i don't know whether it fits or not ( Voyage's also awesome ^^ )
