In fact I've always felt one of her best performances ever came in 1999 w/ her Itsuka no Merry Christmas cover. I haven't heard her sound so soft and sweet like that in such a long time.
Japanese people really love the voice of A Song for XX and LOVEppears...
I really love LOVEppears voice, but A Song for XX voice is a bit too much...
I also really love Itsuka no Merry Christmas performance!!
