[2007] Things you hate about Ayu? OMG.

[Kikaru]

I don't like the pouty lips thing, but as long as they stay mostly in the magazines where I hope it's the designer that makes them that way and out of the ways of album/singles shoots. *hint hint*

I actually want her to go back to sing in all japanese. I love Real Me, but really, some of her English really ruined her songs, like Over.

Yeah. The materialism. That annoys me, but I don't know her, so I can't really say anything until I meet her.

Meh, I like her concerts.

That's a very strange thing for you to say. I think ayu is one of the figures in j-pop most closely tied to her fans and I love that about her.

[Fitst]

I don't have any big problem with Ayu besides the way she records/releases things. She seems to just put out whatever she records and set times during the year, and then rushes the rest of the album after all of the singles are out.

I would like her to just take her time (even if that means no single or album for awhile) and just make a good album, and then put out the singles SHE wants to... not just will sell the best. She has had way too many great songs that were never singles (or even had pvs) in the past...

[Rurutia]

1) she NEEDS new back up singers......ones who sound pleasant to the ear.......go away peko....i'm sorry...your screeching is ugh......

2) use dancers less in pv's

3) make more trance/dance songs

4) do a collaboration

5) CREA DOESN'T COMPOSE ANYMORE!!

6) lack of remixes

7) doesn't dance enough in pv's

8) shouldn't use her vibrato as much

9) ayu anti-fans

10) HAS NOT SUNG A SONG FOR FINAL FANTASY!!! this is the BIGGEST ONE!!

[ayu1m]

Come on Ayu, Europe is waiting for you.

[Chiharo]

Why do you guys hate Ayu's vibrato??I think that's what makes Ayu's songs sound better.

I don't hate, it just seems like sometimes it gets out of control.. takes off and goes crazy A~a~A~a~Ahh !

I don't think that's a really new thing though, she did it at the end of teddy bear at AT0304 too.

[Ryuuzaki]

i don't like:

- peco & princess as her back up singers (my ears hurt when they start to sing)

- CREA don't compose anymore

- her vibrato how it is now

- some costumes she uses in concerts

- she dosn't release summer songs like UNITE!, July 1st, INSPIRE anymore

[DeepRiver]

SMOKING !!! I hate that!

[Qt Mashi]

omg this thread is popular!!

- when she gets influenced by PECO (parts of the dance moves and the OOOOhh ahhhh's) gosh PECO is annoying!

- her over use of the vibrato in live performances

- when she uses her dancers in her PV's

- when she doesnt compose anymore

- she's used more of her sex appeal in her concerts from 2005 onwards

- too much lala's in her songs! she also adds the lala's in her concerts ! like the ourselves perf

[hiroshi_ben]

anyway i dun wan ayu to have simple concert like utada hikaru...i prefer her and hope her concerts in the future will always be amazing with cool stage effects,crazy costumes etc.

and to add on,she needs to add new dancers or at least change some of them...esp the girls!im getting tired of the same old dancers for so long...and those good ones like naoto etc. had left ayu's dancer group for some other reasons...

and her vibrato thing...i dun mind if she uses it once everytime...but its like u can hear her voice vibrating in almost every part of the song...its getting irritating...

but no matter what,i STILL love ayu~

[Kobayashiwoof]

SHE HASNT HAD A TRIPLE A SIDE SINGLE IN YEARS!!! , i always hoped to witness a triple A side from her since from the start i started listening to her.

[Larisa-chan]

You're going to wonder how I'm still a fan after all this...

I bolded the ones that really annoy me XD

-English lyrics & Engrish song titles (Are You Wake Up? LOL)
-Stupid titles like (miss)understood, talkin' 2 myself, startin'
-GIRL POWER songs (Real Me, My name's women, Ladies Night, beautiful fighters, etc.)
-Annoying upbeat pop songs that sound the same (Greatful Days, Angel's Song, Glitter, Honey)
-Annoying (boring) ballad songs that tend to sound the same (Carols, Jewel, Part of me, no way to say, walking proud, moments, etc.)
-She ruined (m)u with those SWEET BOX crappy songs.
-No more trance songs (I miss songs like Naturally ;~
-No more CREA
-Typical release schedule of songs (summer = happy pop, winter = boring ballad)
-Recycling of lyrics (I understand that she's written lyrics to over 100 songs, but talk about something else besides a love relationship between two people)
-Her use of ultra-heavy vibrato (it used to sound so nice in the LOVEppears album!)
-Her off-key live singing
-SHE SMOKES. Enough said.
-Her backup singers (so unnecessary!)
-Boring PVs, PVs with no meaning, superficial PVs like Greatful days, Bold & Delicious and Beautiful Fighters
-Dancing in PVs/too much backup dancers
-Sexy s&m/bondage image in live concerts; ultra-girly image in live concerts
-Hideous long blonde hair; lack of natural hair color (I'd love to see how she'd look with dark hair with her current short haircut!)
-When she purposely makes her eyes bug out in photoshoots to make them look bigger
-Gross materialism/diva attitude
-Major changes to her career (image & songs) that somehow happened between the release of Free & Easy and H.
-She goes to Hawaii, LA and New York all the time but refuses to do concerts at these places!

Ahahaha... yeah, it's pretty obvious that I'm one of those "Free & Easy and earlier" Ayu fans. Not that I don't think she still makes good music. Her rock songs are fantastic. Things overall just starting going downhill ever since H (in my opinion).

XD!!! Haha! I'm shocked, I expected like everyone to respond with "Damn, woman, what's your problem? You're soooooooo picky about Ayu!"

- The fact that she seems unwilling to experiment with new musicians

I agree with these, I'm tired of the dancer PVs, the horrible backing singers - she needs new ones that can sing, and using the same composers/arrangers over and over again is getting a bit boring.
Also, the cute voice she uses for her pop songs - after listening to glitter instrumental I liked it better without that annoying cutesy way she sings on those tracks. And to stop with the over-synthesised unoriginal pop songs and use someone new for the arrangements.

woow thats a looong list XJ

You're right about the lyrics. I believe this is one of the reasons her popularity has declined, because she is always talking about the one winged angel and questioning her partner about the future ("where will this path lead? what will we do?" LMAO)in every single song she releases
