The Official Ayaka Hirahara thread
Does anyone know/listen to this amazing vocalist? I haven't heard much of her at all around this forum, and I was just wanting to know if there were any fellow fans around. I thought her new album was breathtaking, although most people think otherwise.

I absolutely love her latest album. I put it on and leave it on repeat all day, her voice is so beautiful and the simple melodies just help me concentrate on work or relaxing, it's great!

I absolutely LOVE Ayaka Hirahara. I have her sophomore album "The Voice", and it is absolutely stunning. I haven't picked up "4tsu no L" yet since my current income doesn't exactly allow me to spend $30 on an album. But I will pick it up the moment I have a chance, the disc alone is worth it for the two singles "Eternally" and "Chikai".

Great idea for this thread~
I first liked her when I heard her sing "Jupiter" in Kouhaku 04.
I was like, I heard this song before~ It must be a cover of G. Holst's original!

Anyways, I love her latest album: "4tsu no L"; waaayy better than "From To"

Wow, didn't expect such fast replies. She's most well known for her debut single "Jupiter", which sold tons for a debut single (600-700k). I've uploaded some select songs off her latest album.

'4 tsu no L' is probably my favourite from Ayaka so far, and the cover album 'from to' has some fantastic stuff too.

But it's a shame that the only single to have sold very well was JUPITER.

what does "4 tsu no L" mean btw?

I love her and this new album is fantastic. But don't you guys have the feeling "Circle Game" sounds like a cheap mixture of Celine Dion's "My Heart Will Go On" with Madonna's "Like a prayer" with a poppier beat? LOL
Chikai and Eternally are awesome songs!

When you buy the CD, you get a sticker of a four-leaf clover representing one of the four L's.
I got luck which is good because I need some better luck.

That's what I thought when I heard "Circle Game"!!

Anyway, I downloaded some of her songs, and she has a really nice voice!! I'm hoping to hear more from her!!

Oh don't forget she's pretty "pop" too.

From all the reviews I really cannot wait to get my copy of it!!!
