Ayumi Hamasaki mild loss of hearing:
Once wanted to withdraw from the musical world

Ayumi, showing her "fragrant"/beautiful shoulder to play the role as a "flower fairy maiden" on the cover of her latest single <moments> , although has both success in her business and love, but actually has painstaking noone knows about. On the NHK television special report featuring ayumi <Ayumi Hamasaki... despair and decision of light and shadow 25 year old>, speaks frankly about the sudden outburst of the symptoms of the loss of hearing problems in 2000, causing the mild 'sequela' or aftermath of this hearing problem. In 2001 when she participated in the stressful and humongous pressure of 'war' against releasing an album the same day as utada hikaru, this pressure so high she once thought of retiring.

The filming and production crew started to follow ayumi closely since 1999, and after 4 years of hardwork, the clip was finally edited and finished, released yesterday in Japan. The highlight of the program was ayumi's bitter and sad matters as she climbed to the throne of the japanese musical world.

According to Ayumi, in 2000 suddenly in the period of her concert she suffered from the ear loss problems, and was forced to cancel her appearance. At the time, she felt like "simply the bolt from the blue", worring about the end of her career and stardom dream. Fortunately at the end it did not affect her career, but the sequela /consequences of the disease appeared, sometimes she cannot hear sounds clearly.

Until March of 2001, Ayumi faced another test, as she released her album on the same day as her longtime rival Utada Hikaru. At the time the media paid a lot of attention to this 'life and death battle', causing Ayumi to have so much pressure she couldn't breathe [metaphorically], and the word 'retirement' flashed across her mind. Ayumi says "Although I dispelled the idea afterwards, the present pressure was still very big. What I wore, what I did, every little thing was noticed by and paid attention to, sometimes I really want to leave and do nothing."

In addition since her debut, Ayumi seldom mentioned her hometown Fukuoka Fukuoka. However, last month she especially made a trip there with the production crew, introducing her elementary school and the beach her father often brought her to when she was little.
