I'm so glad this isn't a closeup but has an interesting background.

Are you deaf or simply ignorant?

Neither, I just know enough about vocals to realize that anyone calling Ayumi's vocals right now worse than before is talking crap. Especially since the quality of someone's vocals are to the biggest extent objective. I can see how some people may not like her vocals nowadays since they are very different from before and her nasal tone has a quality of it's own but it's a fact that her technique has increased a lot. She didn't even breathe correctly until 2011.

Wow now. Isn't good and/or correct singing a very relative term? There are many different vocal techniques and ways to use your voice, no one is more correct than the other. For instance: I absolutely despise Celine Dion's way of singing, but I find Björk's vocal technique so powerful and beautiful.

happiholic★ · #**305** 8th February 2012, 08:23 PM

I used to love Ayu's vocals and think that they were unique and beautiful. But, at one point I stopped listening to her and started listening to singers like Miliyah and now I don't love her voice the way I used to. I dunno what happened.

THANK YOU

I think absolutelly the same without even having knowlege, it's true that her technique changed but in my ears she has much better control over her voice and vibrato is just flowing not over the place to right and left... she does sound different but i wouldn't say BAD...It's almost like you like one painting and totally don't other because every artist has it's own style and techniques they use.

However i think most of even those who had never had anything to do with learning vocals know that there is in fact a RIGHT way of singing which has different techniques....

The song is a grower

First Ayu ballad I've loved in a long, long time. I really like it. Kudos to Timmy.

Macro · #**310** 9th February 2012, 01:49 AM

Why did Timmy join Ayu's team? I've seen an youtube video of him doing a madonna ballad...
