Have people ever tried editing Ayumi songs to erase parts they dislike like this before? o.0 The edits I heard so far sounded rather bad or took away important aspects of a song's composition so not for me...if I don't like a song I don't listen xD

The Shake It PV looks better than the NaNaNa PV from what I could see in that CM, but I guess we won't know until the entire PV is released.

I think the way someone once edited OLIVIA songs before was way worse. I think that person was a hardcore religious person with very tender ears apparently, so he/she edited out all the "bad" words from some of her tracks from The Lost Lolli. NOT acceptable, that album is flawless

I tried to edit NaNaNa in Adobe Soundbooth CS5 but I can't edit it properly. Timmy's part seems to be locked there. If I erase his part the song becomes weird, and you'll instantly notice that someone has been messing around with the song. After ayu's first verse there's nothing that can be put there except to leave Timmy's part or to abruptly put the chorus after it. I hope you can do a better job than me because I fail so hard at editing that track.

I also tried editing out the vocals of Timmy's part but it takes away the bass too much. I think that NaNaNa 'needs Timmy'. lol

I think Ayu's part would flow rather nicely there - it sounded like with proper precise editing in Sonic Foundry Acid Pro I could blend them nicely. But who knows I guess we will see but it might be my wishful thinking.

It's not about not listening to a song you don't like, it's about really liking a song but having to shake your head every time Timmy's opera voice comes out of nowhere, lol.

With NaNaNa, it's not only the fact that the rhyme's suck (I mean, "boys, noise, boys, choice...? I prefer a rhyming scheme of A, B, A, B or A, A, B, B - not A, A, A, A.) but the fact that he just mentions boys. I was expecting "all the gorgeous boys, and all the pretty girls" or something along those lines. I just feel like the whole song is some awkward attempt at a gay porn star trying to make a name in club music for himself. And the low-budget attempt at a PV doesn't help either. I could see Chris Crocker singing that ****.

Once Hikki fans edited Take 5 to give it a "proper" ending... Found it annoying too.. I mean, it's not the song anymore...

well I knew that Shake It PV will be mostly the "tbc" of NaNaNa and it does look a lil better than it I hope they had really fun, cause in NaNaNa it was the worst party'ing ever.

I love how there are a million fan-made covers for this album and I like them ALL better than the originals.

I mean, sure people can do it if they want to, but it's just...you're stripping it of something. I guess it's not really a big deal, but when people do it to songs I find epic...No, just no. Celestial Delinquent is awesome with its swears. She's trying to sound pissed, because of the message of the song. I just couldn't stand that someone had tinkered with that.

I feel like it's quite disrespectful to the artist. Using a song to create something new is completely fine and a great tribute to an artist but changing a song to "make it better" without any new artistic input is just plain...rude.

I don't like it and I think it's incredibly stupid.

But I'm not going to tell people what they can or can't do with their music.

I think the only time I ever edited a song, was Alan's Xin Zhan. I put the wail from the Japanese version into the chinese version...cause it's gorgeous lol

And the time I used different covers for a release...Utada's This is The One....cause that is the absolute worst cover I've ever come across.

That's what I think too, but ugh. This was just so wrong. And he/she put it up for download, on his/her blog! Eurgh.

At least remix it and make it awesome if you're gonna edit it. Speaking of, I hope DJ AMAYA is going to do something with at least a few tracks from PQ! *excited*

Oh my God it is not disrespectful, lol. Let the fans do what they want - everyone here is so PRO-OPINION so if they wanted to change things to their liking, let them.

Of course it's disrespectful. You are practically saying that you can improve a song someone else created and in the end you only rip the artistic vision of it apart.

Of course you can do whatever you want, I even understand to some degree, but just removing something from a song is rather disrespectful. If they didn't want it in there, they wouldn't have included it. But yeah, to each their own.

No one's telling them they can't. Go ahead. Throw AKB48 vocals in there too if you want lol

We're just gonna tell you what we think about it.

Anyways, I don't think it's "disrespectful" exactly...people have a right to change an art piece to fit them, but in this case I think it's dumb. I wouldn't go through so much trouble. Just listen to the song in entirety

I didn't find his rapping to be that big a deal. It's not even like he's doing it for a long time.

I do hope Timmy won't feel bad about it though...but he's cool, so I'm sure he'll be fine.

Disrespectful? It's really not like people are changing whole songs, melodies, e.t.c. But let say they did - do you find remixes disrespectful too? For me, if the chanting in RR wasn't there I would listen to it ALL THE TIME. Not more than I would listen to reminds me and Tell me why but you get the picture. And for me that small chanting is so freaking annoying that I almost can't bare it. So you pretty much say to me - choose and stick with it. Either I start to enjoy those out of place chantings or I should stop listen to a song that for me is so nearly perfection? Geez...

And just for your information I will find it hard to edit that chanting out so I will keep the original version and listen to it as it is. I will just have to go to my happy place in those places the chanting excists and calm myself from not banging my head in the desk.
