[2006] Battle of the (avex) winter ballads!
 
The biggest avex female artists (Ayu, BoA, Ai and Kuu) are all releasing new "winter" ballads! So, which one do you prefer? Tell us why! Quite a hard decision right? (It is for me! I'm undecided. Ayu? BoA? Ai? Not Kuu though. She didn't impressed me much with her "Yume no Uta/Futari de...")

*** Pick your favorite song. NOT your favorite artist. ***

Ayumi Hamasaki - JEWEL

- V.S. -

BoA - Winter Love

- V.S. -

Ai Otsuka - Renai Shashin

- V.S. -

Koda Kumi - Yume no Uta/Futari de...

Tie between Renai Shashin and Winter Love for me. They're both real nice. I liked Ayu's a lot more than I have the past two years, and Yume no Uta + Futari de... are nice but don't do much for me.

I cant choose..I really cant..I love renai Shashin just as much as Kumis songs.... I do listen to Renai Shashin more..but..o-o

~X2RADialbomber~ 14th October 2006 04:36 AM

JEWEL all the way

I was stuck between Winter Love and JEWEL, but I ultimately picked Winter Love. I just really love this kind of song at this time of year. The melody and arrangement really give me chills, too.

alt.total-loser 14th October 2006 04:46 AM

Totally JEWEL.

LacusClyne 14th October 2006 05:34 AM

i'm biased....i'm voting for JEWEL. it had impress me so much! it's better then i expect from the preview.

though winter Love is good and Yume no Uta isn't bad.

Kikaru 14th October 2006 05:50 AM

hmmm...tough decision...I'm stuck between Winter Love and Jewel

Renai Shashin makes me feel like I'm forever waiting for a dramatic climax...

Futari De/Yume no Uta just got boring after a while

XFER 14th October 2006 05:50 AM

I went with JEWEL. It's so emotional and so clean and simple, that it moves me. In second place, I'd say Winter love. Ai Otsuka really disappointed me this time, I love her, but Renai shashin is weak, so that one and the Koda singles are tied in third place. All 3 great songs, but not strong enought to compete for the title.

ayu_fan929 14th October 2006 06:00 AM

I'm still sticking with Winter Love. Yume no Uta and JEWEL are tied. Renai Shashin is last out of the 4.

Ayumiko 14th October 2006 06:06 AM

I chose JEWEL...the song is so beautiful and the english translations of the lyrics are wonderful and deep. Winter love and Renai Shashin tie for second and third place and Yume no Uta/Futari de... is the last place.

Yume no Uta is not a bad song. The song itself is good but I dont like how it was sang. if it was sang in a softer tone then the whole song would be a lot better and I could easily rank it higher up....if only kumi sang it like she did with you and hands

BoA and Ai sound good in the songs....lots of emotions and their voice didnt hurt my ears. I had to turn down the volume when listening yume no uta...o_O...

Celaphorce 14th October 2006 06:18 AM

As much as I love Ayu I'd say BoA's Winter Love, it's so powerful and her voice is just amazing.

I loved JEWEL, and after seeing the PV and hearing the recorded version I may change my mind, but for now I voted for Winter Love. Renai Shashin is pretty, but not Ai's best ballad. And for a while I thought I was the only Kumi fan not excited about Yume no Uta.

explodingbird 14th October 2006 06:49 AM

Winter Love.... wasn't fair to me though since the studio version of JEWEL isn't out yet.

Renai sashin is nice. It.... doesn't get stuck in my head though.

Yume no Uta/Futari de... sucked. Unmemorable, obnoxious, nice concept but the execution failed.

Mad_Cactuar 14th October 2006 06:53 AM

JEWEL, didn't need thinking. This song is leagues above everything else released this year. Ren'ai Sashin lags far behind JEWEL, but it's leagues away from the others too.

darkswordz 14th October 2006 08:04 AM

Winter Love: Good, but not that fascinating

Renai sashin: Plain, but still beautiful nevertheless

Yume no Uta: Beautiful and the melody caught my attention, but the vocal sucks

JEWEL: Beautiful, nothing much i can complain about :D

Ranking:
1) JEWEL
2) Yume no Uta
3) Renai sashin
4) Winter Love

JEWEL for me.

Lulayu 14th October 2006 11:24 AM

JEWEL, but Winter Love is great too!

micster 14th October 2006 11:25 AM

Ayumi Hamasaki - JEWEL = Lovely
BoA - Winter Love = Nae heard but its BoA ...
Ai Otsuka - Renai Shashin = Nae heard
Koda Kumi - Yume no Uta/Futari de... = Teh suckkor

ImpactBreaker 14th October 2006 11:27 AM

hmmm....am I the only one who actually like Yume no Uta?
I kinda feel extremely biased toward Winter Love, because it indeed is a Winter song, because BoA really sings it amazingly, because it's beautiful and mainly because it has one of the most excellent PVs this year. That PV is so beautiful, it made me want to have an ice brick house LMAO!
I still need to hear the studio version of JEWEL and its PV and well and LOL I still don't even know how the new ai otsuka song sounds at all....

I don't have an opinion yet.
