Namie's voices is kind off weak IMO.. I love utada's strength in her voice and how it sounds so magical especially when she sings with the Ah's from be my last and letters. Namie's voice completely blends in to the music in her lives it's sometimes even hard to hear her...

You're comparing a talented dancer who knows how to dance and sing at the same time to a singer who would rather have images play in the background while she sings out?

Not a fair comparison to be honest xD So I'm not gonna vote since they both are on two different levels.

EDIT: Didn't see that this was for vocals only xD I vote Utada. I just like her vocals better

I really dont know on this one...

honestly...I really don't get where everyone is saying that Namie can dance and sing awesomely...most of the lives I've seen...she's been underneath the key all the time...maybe that's only her recent performances?

where as hikki has like...stamina problems...but at least she's on key...

I like hikki's voice better...but namie's is very pleasant...the problem I have with voting down hikki...is that the only thing wrong with her voice is the stamina...but that's due to the nature of her songs...

I know as a performer that you shouldn't really get extra points just because your stuff is hard...if you can't execute it then what difference does it make...

but namie's voice isn't really anything special...and her upper register is really annoying...

hikki.

although...I still would choose someone else over both of them. I think hikki is just a little above most of the other mainstream artists.

Hikki. Namie sounds nasally live. Like the more I listen to her live, the more I don't want to.
I love Namie but Hikki does have the better voice even if she has stamina issues.

wow, strange, the more i listen to namie's live, the less I listen to her Studio-Recorded songs, because the live makes her music sound so much better imo

The blunt fact is, Namie doesnt have a live voice really. She isnt a vocalist. She's more like a gorgeous body and gorgeous hair marketed brilliantly by Avex.

I love both of these artists but I decided to give my vote for Namie this time since she really has talent to dance and sing and not sing off key. That's very impressive.

I love Utada's voice as well but this time Namie won.

Oh, so more than 1 million ppl are crazy and deaf cause Namie doesnt have a vocal and they still bought BEST FICTION ?
Let me tell u, I'm and those ppl are not dumb, only dumb think their opinion is a BLUNT FACT.
Hikki has a great vocal, I love her voice, but I do enjoy Namie's voice better, so I voted for Hikki, anyway in Ayu vs Hikki vocal, I voted for her

That's awfully opinionated and straight out FALSE for something that is supposed to be a blunt fact. I have a small inkling that most of you who say that Namie sounds horrible live hae never watched any of her tours before, because if you did, you would not be saying this. Watch So Crazy tour- that should be enough
