Because it's "church-sounding" it means that it's "american"? So only american can have the gospel background singers? I don't think so. And "Pride" does not sound american, at all. That's like saying "HEAVEN" sounds american...

I say, if you're not happy with it, than don't listen to it. Ayu is NOT gonna please everybody.

I don't think Pride sounds 'church like' ... sure it has a choir... but a handful of japanese songs have choirs... look at forgiveness... choir

the thing that seperates me from American music is not the beat or music itself... but the lyrics... I personally think Ayu's lyrics are way more heartfelt and meaningful that most American songs
