sorry but the term "influence" is a "WIDE" word, and her music definitely doesn't sound like Vivaldi, Bach or Haendel (barroque musicians)

and maybe ayu now is learning to open her throat and leaves behind her nasal tone. but let's face it, her voice coupled with classical instruments only sounds like a swan squawking in the opera.

There are definitely, strong influences from at the very least Bach in some of her music, not throughout the songs, but partially. And that's already more than 99,9% of Pop musicians can say about their music.

If you don't like it, that's fine, but acting like bringing stronger influences in for rearrangements will not work/destroy the songs is a very, very limited, ignorant and elitist view.

Is not about elitist and you can't say my view is "ignorant"

if you think that slap the old vocal tracks into new classical arrangemnt it will be a good quality classical product... just go for it

I am like, legitely getting angry over how many people want to strip what makes certain songs so great and hear a classical version of what is not meant to be... Lol, and I don't know why.

Sparkle: What makes this song good is the production. That heavy synthesizer. Who would prefer a classical version over the original? It'd be such a waste.

is this love?: No, the guitars make this song what it is.

Mirrorcle World:

Songs I wouldn't mind that have been mentioned:
Sending mail
Microphone (although the original is flawless, I guess I could see this one being ok.
