she is definatly not fluent . i think she just learn random stuff and survival sentences ( since she travel a lot its sometimes necessary even though i think she always have a translator close to her )

people keep saying she is trying , i think since she started in 1999 she had plenty of time to learn english and could have become fluent if she wanted too . she must not find english necessary .

most of japanese singers use english because it sounds more young and more fashionable . thats why in one japanese sentence you will have one english word in their lyrics . wich is pretty funny because sometimes they dont makes sence .

anyway to go back to ayu . i think its like chinese . she is not fluent but if it help her sales why not learn a few just to be able to sing by memory .

i love ayu when she sing totally in japanese and im thanksful she doesnt try to sing in english to start a us carrier like utada . ( even though utada's english is perfect her music sounds better in japanese too ).
