Songs you would like Ayu to cover

[jbrat2219]

AHS is being super weird lately as you all know! I tried several times searching to make sure I'm not bringing up old topics but I got an error each time, SO...

What songs would you like Ayu to do a cover on? Outside of the three Avex Divas (Ayu, Kuu and Namie) I pretty much listen to a lot of j-rock so all my wants are as such:

Dir en grey - Dozing Green
Dir en grey - Ryoujoku no Ame
Dir en grey - RED...(em)
Dir en grey - Yokan
D'espairsRay - Hai to Ame
D'espairsRay - Tainted World
BUCK-TICK - Long Distance Call
BUCK-TICK - Glamorous
BUCK-TICK - Megami
BUCK-TICK - JUPITER
PIERROT - HOME SICK
PIERROT - REBIRTH DAY
MERRY - sweet powder
MERRY - LAST SNOW

I know it may look weird but I would wonder if she could pull off some of these rock songs!

What about you guys?

[rakeru]

lol, Ayu on jrock. she'd pull it off nicely, but i'd like to see her with some European stuff, like Juli or Grégory Lemarchal. she'd be a total natural at Najoua Belyzel...

specifically:
Najoua Belyzel- Comme toi
Grégory Lemarchal- Je t'ecris
Juli- Wir Beide
Tokio Hotel- 1000 Meere

Lol...I don't think she'd be fit to sing some of those songs at all. It's J-rock, but some bands like D'espairsRay are classified as visual kei. Usually the music of these bands differ very much from the rock that mainstream people listen to, in music, lyrics, and appearance. That's why very very few visual kei bands chart high on Oricon. They are not as popular with the mainstream and this is reflected on the charts. She'd be more fit to do cover songs of mainstream and popular rock bands like B'z, GLAY, L'Arc~en~Ciel, etc.

I can hear Ayu singing "Ryoujoku no Ame", just without the screaming. XD

[sugarbasil]

I personally think she'd only be able to cover other pop/pop-rock songs well. Jrock is something that I don't think her voice is fit for. Could you imagine Ayu screaming-singing? I mean, if she were to try it out I would definitely give it a listen, but I would have very low standards.

i'd love for her to cover Gackt's "Last Song"

and Yui's "Goodbye Days"

and and... Gazette's "Cassis".

then i can rest in peace on that day i die.

[jimex289]

Please...no screamo songs from Ayu lol.

[Polyrhythm]

Utada Hikaru~Traveling
Utada Hikaru~ COLORS
Utada Hikaru~ FIRST LOVE!!!
Dream~ Get Over
Mika Nakashima~ LIFE
Ayaka~ Why Live (??? I think thats what its called x_x)
Angela Aki~Sakurairo
Ai Otsuka~ PLANETARIUM PLOX (I dont like Ai but...I like planetarium)
Star Spangled Banner (sorry I just wanna hear it...)
Aoyama Thelm~ Soba Ni Iru Ne

These aren't even songs that I consider to be my favorites. I dont even like some of these artists (Utada love yes) but these are songs that I think Ayu would do well singing.

[jbrat2219]

Well I don't mean cover the EXACT thing, I don't expect her to scream, I expect her to make it her own lol. People accuse her of copying songs all the time yet they never sound EXACTLY like the original, just something of similar composition and such. And not all of the songs I listed are heavy rock songs with screaming.

[jimex289]

Oh I'm just saying...the two songs from D'espairs. They seem like only something Hizumi could sing. To express those raw emotions etc. I think his voice is perfect for that but those two songs are kind of bleak and dark for Ayu's voice to convey.

I would absolutely LOVE to hear Ayu cover BUCK-TICK's Jupiter, that would be beautiful!

Yeah I understand what you mean! But at the same time, I would love to hear her interpretation of the songs because I believe Ayu is good at singing songs with massive emotion (usually her own). When I heard the re-recording of A Song for XX on A BALLADS I was blown away. She took her own classic and turned it into a brand new entity of it's own. I think she could do the same with other people's songs. Or at least I would like to hear her try ^^;

[kirei_ayumi]

I would LOVE to hear ayu cover alan's ashita e no sanka

[jbrat2219]

^ I think Ayu and Alan can interchange songs easily and they would sound great

[jimex289]

She's already proven on AYUREADY how good she is at singing other artists' songs I guess.

[mellody]

I would like Ayu sings L'Arc~en~Ciel's Hitomi no Juunin or NEXUS 4, it would be great!!
