Best Voice in Japan?

[v3lun420]

KOKIA...
Jero...

I think most of the best voices in Japan came from Enka. I don't think any JPop singer has the best quality. But KOKIA is the only exception. I chose Kokia over Natsukawa Rimi simply because KOKIA has wider genre and more international.

edit:
Alan's nada sou sou also good though. If you ask me who is the best voice in AVex, i'll definitely go to Alan.

EMYLI - Very Christina, one of the best voices in Japan, she just has **** songs.
Emi Hinouchi - This girl is phenomenal and that is all to say.
LISA - VERY versatile singing voice, she raps as well as her singing.
Kumi Koda - Sexy, strong and husky vocals.
Yuna Ito - Star vocals without a doubt, strong clean and crisp. Great higher ranges.

Without a doubt, I really believe Ayaka Hirahara is the best vocalist in Japan. Her voice is has such depth and such a great tone, and she can sing anything. Her lower and higher registers both give me the chills.

I seriously love every J-pop singers voice because they are all so different. Mika Nakashima being particularly rich and unique. BoA has power and great soul in her voice. But i also love Utada's, Yuna Ito's, Ayu's, and Keiko's (globe) voices. Keiko and Ayu have very similar voices sometimes, they do that same thing where they like haha I can't explain it, anyone kno what I am talking about. even love hitomi's. They all have their own kind of specific unique talented voices. Olivia has a great voice too.

Just saw it!!!! No way in heaven, hell or earth! xD;;;;;

I think Yuna Ito's voice is powerful - it's a shame Sony throws random pop her way. Total waste of vocal potential, if you ask me.

[Prince Jellyfish]

Chihiro Onitsuka, hands down. Her voice may have declined in power following her hiatus, but it's only improved in expressing sheer emotion. It's such a shame that she's take another break..

[ayu-fan]

ayaka, her voice sound so sweet and crystal clear to me.

misia for sure...but nakashima mika's voice isn't less amazing...both wonderful

^ LOL, Namie Amuro??? XDD Have you ever heard her live? God save the backing track, that´s all I´ve got to say. xDDD

The best voice in J-Pop imo is ayaka hands down. That woman has a vocodec in her troath xD it´s incredible

Agree with daigo tho. Although his extreme physical attractiveness may be playing on my judgement xDDDDD Kokokara Dashite makes me see Heaven xD

[AMANDABYNES]

Miwa Yoshida, Misia, Ayaka.

[Astar1]

Ayumi Hamasaki
Miho Fukuhara
and Yuna Ito

[DA1SUK1DAY01691]

1. Yoshida Miwa
2. Hamasaki Ayumi
3. Utada Hikaru (Only because of her lower voice, although I really love it, Ayu's just keeps me on my toes more. Haha.)
4. Matsuura Aya (She has REALLY matured vocally, and sounds amazing! I really hope she gets signed by Avex after her H!P graduation)
5. Ito Yuna
6. ayaka

Also: EXILE's lead singers (Don't know their names. Haha.), Jero, aiko

[reixminako]

Utada Hikaru!!! No doubt about it

Oh totally, H!P is losing possibly it's greatest vocalist when Ayaya's gone I think she'll get picked up by Avex or another decent label though, she sure as hell deserves it.

[Woef!]

I'd say Eri Nobuchika, Kokia or Hajime Chitose. Vocal wise they are the best imo.
