I hate when people say "Her english is bad". I can't understand why people from english-speaking countries are usually so intolerant with people who trying to speak english. She's trying very hard and she's doing really good from the last time we heared her in CNN interview. Her accent isn't PERFECT because she's not from the USA or UK [Do you remember that? ;)], but she can communicate with other people in english. You just need to effort yourselves and your ear a little more to understand.
She's doing a great effort to speak english. She's trying to improve her accent a lot. If she can do that effort, possible trying to move outside Asia just to please and communicate with her "other" fans, you people can do your own effort with your ear. Believe me, is not so hard. :lech :yes
You could try to be more greatful with her. :rolleyes :P

I was merely talking to the person who said "when will she debut in the west." All I said was that she shouldn't, ever. The fact of it is, if you're going to debut in a market you have to speak the language, and well. If you don't, then you don't do well because you are not understandable to the audience you're trying to connect with. I for one don't care, I listen to Japanese music and I don't understand Japanese, but the general audience isn't like that. She'd get laughed at if she tried to debut here, it's a sad but true fact.

I don't think she has any intentions of breaking into the US/EU markets as she is most likely aware that her skills are insufficient so she most likely wouldn't be able to write the lyrics herself. end of story :P On the other hand if BoA managed to record an English album and Rain did too (or at least he tried?), Ayu would be able to pull it off as well if she were ever to try ^^

Actually, the poster above me mentioned it, and all I was doing was responding to him :3 BoA and Rain failed, along with Se7en and Utada, all failures because (for the first three) they couldn't speak the language well enough to appeal to a larger audience. That plus awful marketing. |
