Where's the Yaiko love? I can't believe her official thread only has one post. Does anyone else love her? I discovered her a long while ago, before her fifth album was even released, and I had forgotten about her for awhile, but I'm once again listening to her music because it's just so awesome. Life's Like a Love Song is without a doubt one of the absolute most beautiful songs of all time.

She used to make excellent music...however after Air/Cook/Sky, her songs became completely mediocre never to rise again. She can't release anything appealing anymore.

Mikansei no Melody is one of the best JPOP songs ever.

I've only listened to CANDLIZE and I loved it, (the tags were screwed though and I got rid of it xD). She's really interesting, I wouldn't mind listening to her stuff again. (Anyone wanna upload a fave album for me? )

I went on Google and found these links:

Air/Cook/Sky

Candlize

The tags are all good too. Those are my two favorite albums. i/flancy is a close third though, if not a tie for second.

But I agree with IB. I haven't been hooked to any of her newer songs (i.e. those past A/C/K). They just don't grab me the way some of her older ones did. Her voice is still just as unique, but the style is perhaps too typical.

^ Thanks It usually happens when you get into an artist though, their style is almost recycled, maybe a few tweaks here and there but same stuff in general.
