Do "yeah yeah's" or "la la la's" in Ayu's songs ever bother you?
 
The la la la's were cute in some of her older songs like SEASONS and Who...

But I hate it when she says 'yeah yeah yeah' in her songs! She's been doing it a lot in her newer releases lol...it's bothersome to me :laugh.
And I especially hated it when she said 'yeah yeah yeah' and 'wowowo' in glitter :thud
I mean, I love that song...but it just grates on my ears when she sings those two parts!

So how about you guys? Does it ever annoy you when Ayu just sings random things like that?

Mary Weather 28th May 2010 02:32 AM

the "yeahs" kinda annoy but I love when any singer says "la la la" hahah I don't know why I just think it's so awesome when they do that!

Kazeyomi 28th May 2010 02:34 AM

Nah, those la-la-la or yeah-yeah didn't bother me. I find them cute :yes
except YAYAYDADADADAWOWOWO 'cause its too funny :roflmao

gallowsCalibrator 28th May 2010 02:37 AM

It doesn't bother me (^_^) :heart

SURREAL__RAINBOW 28th May 2010 02:44 AM

not really. i like them

mobius 28th May 2010 02:47 AM

No it dosen't bother me at all cause that is probably the only part of the songs I can sing-a-long really well without looking at the lyrics. :D

PoetGirl 28th May 2010 02:49 AM

well, it would bother me if lalalala and yeahyeahyeah is the only lyrics in the song lol.

love in music 28th May 2010 02:56 AM

I love them, they give songs more personality. One of my favorites is the "ooo, yeah yeah yeah" in Last Links.

Picaflor 7/4 28th May 2010 03:36 AM

sometimes. i don't like the yeahs in mirrorcle world, i don't like the nononos in love n hate, and sparkle, i don't like the hos in microphone, and i don't like how she sings lalala for a good 45 seconds in moments in the beginning.

off the top of my head. besides those mentioned, i don't mind any other.

Raiu-Ayu 28th May 2010 04:02 AM

I like the lalala's and yeh yeh yeh's and stuff :P It gets the audience pumped at concerts like in evolution.

I also like the added live lalala's, yeh yeh yeh's and oh oh oh's to songs like Boys & Girls, INSPIRE and SURREAL :P

RyRyMini 28th May 2010 04:07 AM

Not really. I kind of see it as an easy way to extend a song or fill up space.

alternarist 28th May 2010 04:14 AM

not really. i feel that it might add on to the feel of the song. like glitter is a really fun song. so without the yeahs and wows i think it is gonna be awkward..

Ranma Matsuri 28th May 2010 04:27 AM

^^^I love the no no no's in LnH and Sparkle. :P

Actually, "la la la's" and "yeah, yeah, yeah's" don't bother me at all until someone complains about it, lol. It wasn't until I read a thread in ahs that I realized how much she says "la la la" instead of adding more words to end a song and now they're bothering me a bit, hehe. Not the ones at the end of Hanabi episode 2 though because that song is just perfect in every single way. :love

Aditmi Krisnasaki ~II~ 28th May 2010 04:49 AM

no...

sometimes they even light up the songs' mood IMO...

like in Who..., oh it always brings me to tears everytime I listen to it....
it's so beautiful

and the glitter one sounds so CUTE, just make the song sounds happier... :D

Ohhh yeah I don't like those either (with the exception of Sparkle) :no. That's what I'm talking about!

Also @ Ranma Matsuri, I like the 'yeah wo wo' in Hanabi ~episode II~ too btw. Actually, that part was what made me like the song! Now I wanna listen to it lol! *goes to listen to Hanabi ~episode II~*

Ayumi_Hamasaki902 28th May 2010 05:31 AM

Nope! I love them! They don't bother me one bit.

Pieces_of_SEVEN 28th May 2010 05:35 AM

no way. i love them
;)

Zeke. 28th May 2010 06:00 AM

Oh I wanted to make a topic about this some time ago but I was too lazy.

Some songs it really makes the song. EX: Moments
Some songs it ruins it.

But when she does so many YEAH YEAH YEAH WOAH YEEEEAH with Peco and Princess on tours then it really bothers me because it totally sounds like ****!

I don't really like the ones in Last Links either. LOVE the ones in Mirrorcle World near the end in the last chorus. It's like my fav. part!

this what i think about the yeah yeah woah yeaaah

AyUmIXx 28th May 2010 06:10 AM

i don't really bother if it's on the CD..
but when she sang together with peco n princess at the concerts as part of the improvisations..
oh nooo why always the same.. wow wow wo yeaaahhh~~~ yeahhh~~ like that..
it's kind of like the same for every concerts...
but i know that Ayu not really good in such improvisation though..
well, i still can stand it :)

CHE.R.RY 28th May 2010 06:11 AM

^ Oh yeah like when she does it over and over really obnoxiously?? xD
That IS annoying :P!

Zeke. 28th May 2010 06:16 AM

I just think it's to show of Peco and Princess and give them more of a part.
Ayu, I know you love them but they ain't cute (very far from it actually) and they don't sound good...

AyUmIXx 28th May 2010 06:27 AM

not that peco and princess sound bad..but i almost listen to the same kind of wowow wowoww yeahhh yeahhh in these recent concerts..
can do some other tones or something?
haha XD

n i don't mind Peco and Princess with their solo parts, they always do great..
i'm talking about when Peco - Ayu - Princess always do together..that's a little bit repetitive in the tone wise? or the same exact way haha XDDD

sugarbasil 28th May 2010 07:15 AM

I personally love them.

But I am horribly embarrassed by them. What I mean is that I could NEVER show a song with "la la la"s or "no no no"s or "yeah yeah yeah"s to a friend, or anyone else for that matter. As I said, in general I really love them. But I understand that I think most non-Jpop lovers would think them INCREDIBLY lame. >_>

Maybe that's really weird of me, but there are some things in life that I am horribly self conscious about, and Ayu is one of them. >_<

prussian blue 28th May 2010 07:21 AM

Sometimes I find its good enough, like in glitter, SEASONS and ASFXX

but once its too long like in MY ALL and RED LINE, it bothers me a bit. But I'm sure it will be fun if in the concert.

Aderianu 28th May 2010 07:25 AM

I don't like all this "yeah yeah" >_<

Spartayu 28th May 2010 09:57 AM

When I first listened to her songs, it did. But I listened to her song everyday, and I'm quite used to it, even if it's her new release.

Nackar_91 28th May 2010 10:03 AM

I really don't care. It bothers me when it's an artist that can't write lyrics, but it's not like she ONLY uses lalala and yeah yeah yeah in her lyrics.

Yoake 28th May 2010 10:16 AM

I love them. They don't bother me

C+R+E+AYUMI 28th May 2010 11:20 AM

i'll always say that I hate: yayayaya gagagaga dadadada wowowowo

the others are ok

y_nathz 28th May 2010 11:33 AM

Well it's still ok for me :)

AngelSenshi 28th May 2010 11:35 AM

It doesn't bother me at all; I quite like it actually.

Qt Mashi 28th May 2010 11:39 AM

i like some lala's but hate most of the lala's...
the lala's in Moments i like but the lala's in July 1st i hate~

Rupikt 28th May 2010 11:55 AM

I love la la la in Rainbow :">

Alias 28th May 2010 02:06 PM

No, that doesn't bother me, though it depends on the song how much I like it...well, I don't like Bold & Delicious's yayayayagaga..., you know. But for example Mirrorcle World's "wowyeah"-part is pure love. :luv2

noisy_harmony 28th May 2010 02:11 PM

Sometimes. They have no influence on my opinion about song though. But they are hella annoying in live perfs, because of Ayu's voice.

KarenPang 28th May 2010 02:11 PM

I guess if you listen to such songs back to back , then naturally it will grat on you

for me I don't tend to listen to songs that have similar throw in's of random words if not it does annoy me but other than that nope

indyplus 28th May 2010 02:17 PM

They don't bother me at all! Actually, I love them. ♥

PEARL 28th May 2010 02:18 PM

i find them cute
& me and my friends always go YAYAYAYA GAGAGAGA DADADADA WOWOWOWO :P
so ayu's songs kinda 'bond' our friendship ^^

AyUta 28th May 2010 07:18 PM

Just the yeah yeah yeahs :). I like the la la las, and the no no no's. :laugh Especially in sparkle <3

ayumisrael 28th May 2010 07:19 PM

Nope, I love them.

AyUta 28th May 2010 07:20 PM

I just don't like the yeah yeah yeahs :). The la la las and the no no nos don't bother me, I like them <3 Especially in Sparkle.

primavera♥ 28th May 2010 09:30 PM

i love them. man of them are like my fav parts in the song. and i love when she does it at lives, adding it in to other songs

like for example. . .in is this LOVE? i love that at the beginning and end. its amazing :)

2Hurt 28th May 2010 10:07 PM

No I usually really like them.. sometimes I like live versions better because of the yeah's and all ^-^

ストロボ・EdGE 28th May 2010 10:14 PM

I just think it's funny that all of Japan thinks 'Yeah' is 'Yay' and 'Wow' is 'Woah'.

JackieRos 28th May 2010 10:37 PM

I kinda like them

LOL I know exactly what you mean sugarbasil....I'm mainly iffy about showing people Ayu (I'm not Asian and I live in America) because of her vibrato...but the "yeah yeah yeahs" get me the most...to me they sound so...........sloppy? I guess...And well, a little lame. I'm sure a lot of my friends/peers would not care for it either lol.

I was really embarrassed around my bf at first too, but I got over it eventually. I don't try to force Ayu on him, but I don't hide her from him either.

And over the years, I've kind of just started to get over being so insecure, I mean, who cares what other people think? LOL
If they don't like it, then they don't have listen to it. It would be stupid for someone to think harshly of you just because you like something they don't like (and highly unlikely)...after all, everyone has their own personal interests :yes.

zaqwanbadli 29th May 2010 05:25 PM

La la la...
 
It wouldn't be an Ayu song without all the "La la las", "Wow wow wows", "Yeah yeah yeahs" and "No no nos"!

With these things filling up a song, I feel it really makes it more personal, especially when I see Ayu performs them on stage... (Note: "Moments", "HEAVEN", "WHATEVER", "evolution", etc.)

Sometimes it doesn't have to be meaningful to have a meaning,
sometimes the meaning lies in the emotion itself-------

Like when Ayu performs, we attended the most when we see her sing, right?

When I'm happy/sad/excited, all I sing is "La la la", and Ayu songs have it, so I'll sing an Ayu song~

Hahaha, I hope I don't confuse you all-------:D

microphone 31st May 2010 04:53 AM

it is really annoying... but I deal with it~ ^^"
Her vibrato is so special. I like it a lot. My mother thinks it is funny but whatever!!!

LOL yeah that's probably my least favorite.. the song would probably be a lot better without those.

Piccolo 31st May 2010 05:33 AM

Depends. Usually not.

zaqwanbadli 31st May 2010 10:29 AM

Yeah!! :yes

Her vibratos are what made me fall madly in love with Ayu! :love

Picaflor 7/4 31st May 2010 05:37 PM

I hate the woah woah woahs in Whatever. They seem so out of place and vocally ugly. They also seem to be too low in pitch. I would love to have them edited out in the future.

millie47 1st June 2010 11:10 AM

nope!i absolutely love them!:D adds flavor to the song :D

Cherry Dynamite 1st June 2010 11:29 AM

If I let these things bother me I'll probably be a grumpy old cat lady.

untitledforayu 1st June 2010 11:43 AM

I don't like it in identity

and in lives.
Especially when it's peco/princess woah woah woah-ing.
I swear, nothing kills a good live performance like those two hags 'improvising.'

asmAyumi1992 1st June 2010 12:14 PM

Not at all!! I love it btw! :D

aqua_crystal 1st June 2010 01:14 PM

In most cases, I love them. The "la-la-la" in the beginning of "Moments" was one of my fav. And they sounded great in "Who..." too. Then again, I can understand why so many people dislike it.
As for the "yeah yeah yeah"s, they all sound great, especially in "STEP you". But not in glitter though.
And the "nonono~" in Sparkle and the "ho" in Microphone all sound pretty good too.

Oh yeah, Peco & Princess' "yeah"s in Bold and Delicious has to be the most annoying thing on the planet!

majrakun 1st June 2010 01:55 PM

They're okay, some are really good. None ever made me hate the song though.

My favourites would be the ones in evolution, Moments, Sunrise.

I ESPECIALLY love the one in alterna. "Heeeeey, hey, hey, hey~!" That is just epic.

SPEAKERnight. 2nd June 2010 04:36 AM

I don't even notice them half the time.:innocent

chloeM 2nd June 2010 04:42 AM

i am okay with all of them... i mean, they go with the song, so it doesnt ticks me~

Ohh yeah! The hey's are awesome in alterna! They actually made the song better imo!

powpowparn 2nd June 2010 11:47 AM

I don't mind them, I can sing along to it so it's fine.

I remember Michael Buble saying that he added lalala into his song Everything so that people who didn't speak English could sing along which I thought was pretty sweet ^_^

Tony G 2nd June 2010 01:33 PM

I love them. They make the songs catchier.

My favourite is from is this LOVE? - wow yeah yeah, yeah, yeah, yeaaaaaaaaaah lalalalai lalalai yeaaah yeah YERRRRRRRR

the best <3

bluecyclone 5th June 2010 08:08 PM

i love la la la and yeah yeah yeah, it's like a common language... n_n

Not Fade Away 9th June 2010 07:31 PM

lol I really liked the 'yeahhs' she hit in Rule towards the end, they were half screeched (in a good way) and half belted, so the ending result made me want to star in an action movie haha.

I guess this is fitting considering the song was made FOR an action movie.

noisy_harmony 9th June 2010 08:55 PM

I've just found that "uuuu yeeah" part in HANABI as totally annoying and not necessary. Kinda ruins atmosphere of the song.

xLitax 10th June 2010 04:42 AM

Well I'm listening to + right now, so no. :laugh

rusuke 10th June 2010 10:25 AM

sometimes "yeah" bothers me.

Picaflor 7/4 12th June 2010 02:24 AM

after watching some ayu concerts within the last week i realized that her ai's annoy me, during the beginning or instrumental part of her songs she pumps her fist in the air and goes "AI! AI! AI! AI!" that happens to annoy me. I know it's supposed to pump up the crowd but ugh.

kotora 12th June 2010 03:41 PM

how about MOON "wo.wo.woww..."? It sounds new to me but on the other hand, it is a bit long at the end of the song.

Miltonic 12th June 2010 04:17 PM

They dont bother me at all, I happen to enjoy most of them since thats the part I can sing a long to well lol

the only ones I cannot stand are the yayagagagawawawowo in bold&delicious ugh

I know what you mean. I always thought that part was kind of strange, and seemed a little out of place.

Omg, I love those lol they're (part) of what made me love the song. When I first saw the PV that's the part that stuck with me the most. I find myself humming it all the time. :D

I also love the "yeah yeah" in Mirrorcle World, it's one of my favorite parts in the PV.

I just find the "yeah yeah yeah gagagadadaa whoa whoa whoa~" in B&D hilarious but they do give the song a lot more flavor. :laugh

lovelism 15th June 2010 03:00 AM

I think her "Yeahs" and "La's" are sound just right. Doesn't bother me. I love singing along to those parts! ^.^

AngelSenshi 16th June 2010 03:05 PM

I'm glad there are people seeing how those things add the sort of flavour to the song; it's really cool, there really are some songs I couldn't imagine without all those yeah yeah yeahs or la la las and stuff haha

HanabiChick 16th June 2010 04:19 PM

I don't mind them, in fact, if Ayu stopped adding them I'd miss them. She adds the right amount, and doesn't go overboard with them like some artists like to do.

fanayutic 16th June 2010 04:27 PM

Doesn't bother me. I would prefer those to be sung live rather than to put it in studio recordings.

Empress 16th June 2010 05:09 PM

most of ayu's la la la are nice and cute :yes the best one in my personal opinion is the one in the end of dearest even the "ah" in the song is also nice:luv2 however i'm not really big fan of her wow,yeah,hey,hoo and no:no i do find them annoying :yes

Ranma Matsuri 17th June 2010 06:15 AM

I just remembered the "whoa yeah yeah" at the beginning of is this LOVE? They add so much power to the song for me and give it even more of that rock edge. Love them. <33

Oh, there's also the wow wow (though it's actually whoa, whoa lol) at the end of UNITE! and STEP you, I like those a lot. :D

I think it's official now that these things don't bother me in the least. :laugh

YukasMx_TA 17th June 2010 06:26 AM

They are nice, I mean, I like to sing (if I can call them like that xD) those hey! and yeah!
specially in the live versions, they pump me up, love them in Evolution and UNITE! from AT09 y scream and dance when I see or hear them :D
