For me, it's Ayu or nothing. I've listened to music from other JPop artists, including some of the supposedly bigger names--and (IMO) I've given them more than a fair chance, but I'm just "not feeling it".

Maybe that's because Ayu has "her own" type of music...I keep hearing that "she's not really JPop in the traditional JPop sense" - whatever that means...my interpretation of this is that she's not really JPop in the same sense, perhaps, that there's some Shania Twain haters who say she's not really country.
