Wouldn't it be great if they re-released AT02 and ST02 but PROPERLY EDITED?

One can dream.

[xLuna&1LOVE]

I wonder if the local erotic store in my town also saw Ayu's CDL and felt inspired.

Spoiler:

omg

[axmish87]

Impersonations are the highest form of flattery

[EndOfTheWorld]

But I think it's kind of weird that Ayu's vibrato is made fun of. To me it just sounds like enka style.

[axmish87]

I remember that in 2009 people were so negative about her vibrato that they called it "vibrato of doom". But I was so fond of it. GREEN is my absolute favorite song from that year just because of the way how she was singing back then.

[mizuki-7]

I always wondered which singers influenced her way of singing ? Obviously she was influenced by Keiko from Globe in early 2000 but suddenly she added so much vibrato in 2002 especially with voyage and even more the years that followed... It's definitly an interesting choice she must simply liked that lol

It's quite funny when people try to impersonate her because some emulate the high pitched voice and some the big vibrato lol

[pedronekoi]

I love seeing the vibratto jokes lol I myself also do that vibratto impersonation all the time. iconic af.

[Cahz-]

I'm just happy that woman decided to parody her look from the CDTV performance from last year and the vibrato from 2008, instead of doing the same 2000 high pitched-short haired Ayu these humoristics do once and again when parodying her.

[pedronekoi]

I think she's mimmicking her performance on CDTV on 2018 lol She even got the highlighted cheeks right lol

Since getting back into Ayu recently, I’m still backtracking to listen to a lot of the material I missed between 2009-2016, and finally I gave the Five EP a listen and WOW... I can not believe I slept on this one. I’ve played it three times through I’m in love with it so much.

Yes! Five is a good album. I love all of the songs on here, especially Why..., BRILLANTE, and Beloved.

Side note: I accidentally typed that Five is a good "dinner" instead of album at 1st. LOL I need to get food off the brain.

[Teppei-chan]

I now that the month isn't over yet but I think I can name my "Ayu Song For The Month" and it is... Dolls. It just fits my current mood so well. It's not the lyrics that fits but the whole song. To me this song has a special atmosphere that I connect to my love for watching the night sky and hope to see more of the nothern lights on the cold winter nights we currently have here. I would also say that the future breeze Remix also kinda fits in this situation

But all of those are for the Premium Music option from youtube. Seems to be something they wanna push for 2019.

There is a serious issue that needs to be point out in the world of YouTube. I'm quoting above from the Koda Kumi thread, but this is affecting not just Kuu, but also Ayu as well.

There's something called YouTube Music Premium, which just recently rolled out to Japan, and this is now causing 'geoblock' or 'paywall' issues on J-pop music videos, especially 'full versions' of it. This could be very serious in the long run, and this could affect not just Avex - but other labels around Japan, especially big ones like Sony or Universal...

Polsy (YouTube region checker) technically says it's geoblocked outside of Japan, but I'm speculating this is a geoblock-paywall...

[relmy]

She looks so tired to me in all her old performances now. Not surprising with how much she was doing, but her more relaxed schedule now shows in her skin/face etc...

[Karori]

Now I finally have MY STORY and I'm in love with it. So many great songs! About You, GAME, my name's WOMEN, Liar... Listening to it without skipping any track makes me appreciate every single song of it...
