Songs that make you go "WOW"
 

name any one TRUELY amazing song that you've heard. It could be emotionally performed, or juts the melody is amazing in itself. For me, it's "oborozukiyo ~inori~"(nakashima mika)..literally..just..wow.

Only one? Aww, well, Chihiro Onitsuka's infection.

It's even more raw and emotional when it's performed live, truely amazing.

Sorry...couldn't resist cheating and naming just one other one just because they aren't as well known and deserve all the mention and exposure they deserve. fra-foa's aojiroi tsuki, the hair on my arm stands up everytime I listen to that song.

Some songs that just make my mouth drop or go AWWW or *crie* are (sorry it's impossible to choose just one):

Hamasaki Ayumi - Memorial address ~take 2 version~
WOW LIKE WOW!! This song is heart stopping and just heart breaking... her performance is so sad and sweet. It's perfect.

Hamasaki Ayumi - Endless sorrow
This song's message just touches me so deep and hearing it makes me tear everytime.

Hamasaki Ayumi - Dearest
Comon' 'Dearest' the greatest song ever hahaha to me anyways!

Onitsuka Chihiro - Sign
WOW... JUST WOW!! This is seriously the most heart stopping love song EVER! Everything about it is just pure and sweet.

Onitsuka Chihiro - Gekkou
Okay how is this song NOT WOW? Everything about this song is jaw dropping and like K mentioned is always more powerful when she performs it.
