Yuki Koyanagi - She has a powerful voice but it's like she fell off the face of the planet. When I last saw she came out with a song I had already lost all interest in her.

Ayumi Hamasaki
Yea...yea! I'm confessing. It doesn't feel good you know but I can't help it. Lately, I've just been really really bored of her. I have plenty of songs that I like of ayu on my ipod (even MW) but I just haven't had the urge to listen to her. I've been like this for 2 weeks now and it seems that I'm losing more and more interest in her. I'm not even hyped about her tour, her single, and her anniversary.

If LUV ~Venus~ is going to confess then I will too >___<
Ayumi Hamasaki Yup.. really really. Of course not completely, I wouldn't be here if I did. I do love Mirrorcle World.. but.. I dunno. Lately, it all feels fake. Like her last tour, I'm sorry to say this.. but it was crappy recycled **** and the worst part was the people defended this. You can't deny that the cage thing was already done, the feathers was already done, the cross was already done. And now, she's also switching to an "I''m hawt, buy my single!!" style. I have always admired tough, fierce and strong women, but.. I dunno... she overreacts it in her PVs like Mirrorcle World which makes it feel really fake. I'll stay listening to her, but I think my ultimate love for rock has replaced a part of my interest in her Utada Hikaru Her voice is getting shakier and it was really noticable in her HEART STATION/Stay Gold single.. I feel as if her latest releases are more for attention then really to entertain her fans. Once again, a lot was recycled like Kiss & Cry and when listening to her HEART STATION, I realised that everything sounded the same. Or at least, it felt as she re-used a lot of beats, synths and such for her songs. Which is why I lost respect because ULTRA BLUE and DEEP RIVER both were amazingly creative and full with variety, nothing sounded the same.. And I can't say the same for this album.

 There's no need to feel bad; your interest in her may be rekindled someday. I sometimes lose interest in her as well, but that's usually due to my playing her music constantly.  As for me, I've lost interest in Tamaki Nami and AAA. They bore me now.

I said Utada a while back, and I still have to agree with that. I was hoping that HEART STATION would revive my liking for her, but that album did nothing for me.

Hmm...well, I've lost interest in Crystal Kay and Sowelu. For the past year, I haven't really been caring too much about the stuff Nami Tamaki's been releasing. I also haven't really been listening to YUI since her debut single (I've heard a few stuff here and there, and the only thing I've liked since I saw her first video was ROLLING STAR). I like a lot of ORANGE RANGE's earlier stuff, but I haven't really liked a lot of their recent stuff. It's not that I've lost interest in her (lol everyone knows when something of hers is released), but I'm really picky with Utada Hikaru's stuff. I haven't liked a lot of her stuff past ULTRA BLUE, though.

Ayumi Hamasaki
I'm not as excited about new Ayu songs as I used to be. All of her summer songs sound the same and some of her rock stuff just sounds too cluttered. Keep hoping for the one song that will blow me away, I think maybe she needs a break to find a new sound. Think I am in the minority of people who thought (miss)understood was good, but Secret was kind of blah. Guilty improved a little. BOA Was more a fan of her older songs like Valenti, My Name and Quincy. Nothing really stands out. Gackt It comes and it goes. Loved Diablos! Returner not so much. Love Utada's new stuff, though it starts to sound the same. Namie's new single and last 2 albums were pretty good. Koda Kumi I am starting to like a little. The constant sexy image was too much for me and I am a guy. Last Angel is cool.

I kinda hope the Mirrorcle World single will not be put in her next album, and that she doesn't fill the entire album with loads of prologues, preludes, interludes and all that crap.

There are multiple artists that come to mind with this thread:
Utada Hikaru: Oddly enough, I used to consider her and Ayu my favorite artists. However, since the release of her Single Collection Vol. 1, nothing after that (not counting Exodus) was really that great. The singles have all been dull, and I don't consider any of her songs after that compilation to be classics. HEART STATION especially was just crap. It was dull and boring, and everything I used to hate in the Hikki tracks I'd always skip on her older albums. Unless she does something amazing with her second English album, I just really won't give two craps about her. Ito Yuna: Never have I so rapidly shifted my opinion of an artist. I first heard of her when Precious was released as a single and fell in love with that song, as well as ENDLESS STORY and losin'. However, once her debut album was released, I hated it. The entire thing was just a collection of lackluster filler tracks that couldn't even qualify as mediocre B-sides. Her second album was not any better, and only one of her singles were good (I'm Here). I eventually just started hating her voice and now I can't stand her at all. The extremely disappointing covers of My Heart Will Go On and All I Want For Christmas just sealed the deal. I'm done with her for good. Shiina Ringo: I will always have an enormous amount of respect for Shiina Ringo for all the work she did priot to Tokyo Jihen, but she just fell into mediocrity. What was once amazing became unappealing and just good, not amazing or spectacular like she used to be on her own. I was ecstatic when I heard she would be releasing a fourth solo album, but was sorely disappointed to find out that it was basically a collection of remixed old songs and some cheesy new ones. I've quit following Tokyo Jihen because I just don't have any faith in them ever since they went straight to jazz music.

Every Little Thing
Old stuff, good. Now stuff, bad. lol. Her change in singing style just threw me off... Lately, many artists that started waning released something spectacular, so that saved them for me. Examples in spoiler...Spoiler:
When I see everyone else's thoughts, I can understand your viewpoint. As Madden-X mentioned, her tours are becoming recycled. But after all, when you think up many ideas on your own, you're bound to dry up sooner or later... Plus, I kind of viewed TOUR OF SECRET as like a BEST OF tour, since it's the first ASIA tour she did. May be this year will be different (and I'm kind of hyped abot the theme, it's SUPER promising).

This is sad...but a lot of people are doing it, and I must say I have to now too...
Ayumi Hamasaki: She really isn't the way she used to be, I love how her vocals have evolved and what not, and Mirrorcle World is an amazing song, but come one, she's doing the same things over and over again, and the comment about her tour with all the same old crap over and over again, My Story tour(I LOVE IT!), but when she started doing the same things after it for her newer ones I just stopped watching, sadly Namie Amuro's are always the same, but I could watch those a thousand times over before I ever watch a Ayumi tour besides A Museum, My Story, and her CDL 04-05.

BoA - I started liking her is when she release her Best of Soul album. That was really great. Her Outgrow is still ok but her Made in (20) really disappoints me. Maybe I don't like her type of music anymore, but I think that her songs nowadays aren't as great as before. And she doesn't dance as much as before. I'm looking forward to her new korean album but it seems that she's not having any activities in korea anymore. *disappointed*
Now I badly wanna sell my Made in twenty away. I seriously don't like her music in that album at all! (shouldn't hav bought it. argh!  )Now I'm very much into Ayu. =D

YUI - I really liked her first 2 singles...and then it went downhill from there
 Yuna Ito - Same deal as ^. I LOVED "ENDLESS STORY" but didn't find any other single after that interesting. I really thought I would like her again after I heard "stuck on you," but even after that, she didn't really impress me anymore. w-inds. - I grew up. HAHA. Beni Arashiro - Now that I think about it, I didn't really like her to begin with. I just liked her single covers

I been into Ayumi, Hikki, Namie, D.A.I and BoA for the past 6 years... from the day i started to become obsessed with JPOP until this very day...
Still continuing to love all of them except for... ayumi Recently been really into YUI alot and casual listener of Yuna ito and angela aki and I HATE people saying that "soon or later u will hate namie and say bad things about her.. blah blah blah'. What?! I treat them like toys and when they are out-dated i'll throw them away?!?! What a childish thought..only kids will think of that kind of stupid reason. The reason i lost the passion and interest in ayumi years back, is because i'm loving the rest of them more and more and ayumi is not catching up them them at all. Hence i became a causal listener of ayumi. She's not the same as she was 5 years back... Last edited by UHPlus; 10th April 2008 at 11:44 AM.
