Ayaka Hirahara Thread
 

So there is no Ayaka Hirahara thread on AHS. :o

Are there any other fans of her on AHS? Imo she has one of the most beautiful voices :heart

I'll post news and stuff in the first post once I know for sure there are more fans of her on AHS :D

Awww! No Ayaka fans on AHS? *forever alone*

Her new album "Doki!" drops wednesday, can't wait to listen to it!

Oh there's a thread...but it's just 3 years old :laugh

Thanks for the update~ I had no idea she have a new album coming out :luv2

aww i love ayaka hirahara She has a very soothing and beautiful voice, The first song I ever heard by her was Inochi no Namae from her Cover Album and from there I started following her :)

^ hahahh that's the first song I heard as well! After listening to a Joe Hisaishi concert a few years ago !:laugh

@ pommy~ Yeah I found a few threads just now when I searched again, none in the artists&bands forum though D:

Here's another fan of A-ya since JUPITER!! I really love her voice, she has something very special. Blessing, Starline, Chikai are among my favorites. I just find that the idea of the trilogy "My Classics" was not something necessary... Just one and only album would have been great... But 3? Am I the only one with that thought?

Glad she finally comes with original songs^^

My first song was Hajimari no Kaze from my favorite anime, Saiunkoku Monogatari :luv2

Her voice is just so beautiful and soothing!

I am a fan since album "4tsu no L" which I consider one of the best japanese albums ever! :)

I only started following her in 2010 so I'm not to bothered by her My Classics albums, but I can see how they would be annoying for her older followers at the time haha


I uploaded her new album Doki! in the downloads section if anyone is interested. :) I really like HUSH HUSH

^ Ah thank you for sharing the album I will have to listen to it :)

I have followed her for a few years now I was surprised to find out that she's young (._.)' I for sure thought she was 30 or older

weird huh lol

i think she needs to stop releasing cover albums lol. kinda sick of them, but she have a beautiful voice thou, very classical voice.

Yay, I finally tracked down the Ayaka Hirahara thread here :D
Seriously, she is amazing and I am so glad I discovered her recently. I started out listening to "Doki!" and wound up loving every single song.. which is soo rare for me with albums by anyone. I've downloaded her discography and so far I've listened to Sora, Doki!, and the "my classics" ones. Her voice is perfection to me :heart I can't wait to listen to all the rest. Lol I see this thread isn't very active but just wanted to pop in to show my appreciation for her.

^ Yay I'm glad she has a new fan :D I hope you will like the rest of her stuff as well! :D

Her new single "Smile, Smile" came out a few days ago and it's such a nice sweet song :)

^The video to Smile, Smile is soo cute :D A little cheesy lol but I loved the llamas omg :heart And as usual the song is great :P

For somebody who never knew who Ayaka Hirahara was (like me), what would be THE songs newbies of her music should listen to in order to be hooked?

"Jupiter" is her biggest hit so I guess start with that song. :P

Some of my personal faves:

Ashita (明日) (From the album ODYSSY)
Hoshi Tsumugi no Uta (星つむぎの歌) (From the album Path of Independence)
Siciliana (シチリアーナ) (From the album My Classics!)
Inochi no Namae (いのちの名前) (From the album From To, it's a collab with Joe Hisaishi)
Greensleeves (From the album My Classics 3)
NOT A LOVE SONG (From the album Doki!)
