I think she always struggle whenever she does vibrato... Just listen to Can You Keep A Secret?, and you will know what I mean (I got goosebumps in the first time when I heard the radio preview of CYKAS?... Her vibrato is just... too weird). That's one of the reasons I didn't really like Distance, as she's like tryin to prove that she can use vibrato. I'm so glad that she dropped this habit in DEEP RIVER...

It's just a personal point of view, but I dun think you will love the old ayu songs. I will use RAINBOW as a separation between her old and new songs era. Her recent music is so different compared to her old ones. To be honest I dun feel her soul within today's music at this moment. Not that I hate the songs (actually I like the songs in Secret), but she doesn't have magic like before...
I know I'm going through that stage again... During her I am... to RAINBOW era, I didn't really listen to ayu music at all. Yes I still played her music, but not like 20 times a day in her LOVEppears/Duty era. Then I overcame this situation when she released &. Now it's coming to a point that I dun play her music that often. (To tell you the truth.. I dun even know if I have heard talkin' 2 myself for more than 50 times since the release). But I guess now I've come to a point that I will buy her album anywayz no matter what (as I didn't buy I am...).
On the other hand... I dunno.. hikki's changing music so often as well, but somehow I feel like her songs have soul... The only period I forced myself to listen to her music is during the release of the Distance album. Once FINAL DISTANCE came out I was back to her music again..
Edit: I think I went a bit off again LOL. I quoted your message because I wanna talk about how wonderful ayu's songs during LOVEppears/Duty era.. But mind you, her music was much darker during that era. It would be hard to love her old works all of the sudden if you haven't listened to them yet.
