Ayu's "worsening" voice?

Well bad singing never hurt her career or stopped her from singing, she was actually most popular when her singing was at it's worst in 2000. Ayu is going to be just fine, I wouldn't be too concerned about it

I think that a lot of people loved her vocals in 2000, or else she wouldn't have peaked then. So I think your argument is quite invalid. Some of her most technically challenging songs, as we've seen in this thread, are from that era.

Maybe they're so challenging because it's so hard to be able to sing them as bad as she did loljk. But I can't imagine anyone saying they love her vocals in both concert tour 2000's. Well, maybe you because you seem to think there is nothing wrong with the TV version of cdl 07-08.

Well, funnily enough Concert Tour Vol. 1 is my favourite Ayu concert. XD
About CDL0708, of course her vocals aren't terrific, but for all that was going off on that concert they were decent.

Actually, I have to agree with Identity on this one. Just, she was so popular because she was this hot new thing, and then that was when her music went from really catchy and cool to pretty much amazing, hah. She was starting to take on a different image as the cute fashion queen Ayu. It was the start of the "Empress" and her peak. I believe her vocals were terrible and everybody realised that, but because she had so many others things going for her at the time, people didn't really care.
And if people really did say, 'ooh, she sings sooo well!! ', it was only because they loved her so much, lol. We all know how it is, to exaggerate on even the weakest points of our favourite artists, just because we love them and see them as nearly perfect beings.
