You're welcome, Ayumiko. ^^

They ranked Voyage number 1 for pv? @_@ Glad to see appears made the list though, love that pv :luv2 Kinda surprised to see talkin' 2 myself also.

kool
thanks for the info
^^

That's a really cool page over there! Thanks :D

Thanks for sharing. Interesting :luv2

Thanks for sharing, definitely interesting.

That's some weird lists right there. :)

Hm... at the bottom it looks like this was pieced together from 1,000 participants ranging from the age of 10-29...

Definitely a strange list, and heavily debatable depending on who you ask..

thanks for the info

I dont understand the last chart

thanks...i want to know what chart it is too

nice!!
thx for the info!

if you see on the right, there's a clip of TA limited live tour @ tv.oricon.co.jp

Thanks Aga-chan for the translation. :)I'll update my post.

That's awesome~ Thank you for sharing this!

Oooo, they have a some lovely HQ pictures of the unreleased photos <3

WOAH..Japanese really LOVE BLUE BIRD hahha..thats really cool...nice to see HEAVEN and all the expected songs there...

i like the PV list..there are some more recent songs...(nice to see t2m...and BLUE BIRD IS SOOOO HIGH!)

and the charm points are nice...
Her style is least impt to them hahaha...lyrics and voice...very gd XD

Thank you!!

Wow so the japanese love her mainly for the lyrics and voice :love

All of those top 10 songs and songs of PVs are on A COMPLETE XD

thanks for the info

it's right to choose "M" as n1 :P

Wow, great list of ranking there!! I was glad Talkin' 2 Myself was up in the PV list. It deserves to be there. Everything else is kinda expected and really nice~ :D

Why appears and t2m is in the top ten list =/

Having a unique style like writing lyrics for all her song certainly helped ayu alot!

Thanks for the information.

Wow. This is exactly my opinion on Ayu's rankings. Wow. O_o

Ummm..

Why is TO BE there and not SURREAL?

And WTF @ the PVs. I REALLY dont like those PVs except M, STEP you and talkin' 2 myself. Like WTF. CAROLS?! She's just standing on a stage SINGING for like 3-4 minutes. Marionette and Because of You are 5000000 times better.

I also thought Moments was a HUGE fav for JP fans? When I became a fan I read that Moments was her most famous song lol.

Mine would be

1) Lyrics
2) Style (in music and fashion)
3) Character (nice and happy)
4) Cuteness (physically and mentally)
5) Emotion (how she sings on stage)

I don't find her voice charming but she'll still my most favorite singer. ^_^

The top 10 for the pv ranking is pretty surprising, I never thought that talkn' 2 myself, CAROLS , and BLUE BIRD will be in it. (Especially since the CAROLS pv is really boring...)

Voyage PV so high?! O.o Why? :P

Voyage as number 1 PV??? No wais, there were so much better.

Still nice that they did a special issue

I'm not the only one who likes BLUE BIRD, I see. :)

thanks for this~ those songs are classics! people love BLUE BIRD as a pv~ i would too! so pretty!

Nice to see that Lyrics are her #1 charm. =) Although I'm surprised that "style" is so far down the list. Thanks for this! *goes to check out pictures*

thanks for the info

Niice :D

Thanks for the info.
The chart ranking wld be so different from mine. lolz. why isn't RAINBOW in the pv ranking? I liked that pv alot!!

I think they chose these rankings from songs on A COMPLETE only..

(Otherwise songs like untitled and MY ALL or like ASFXX would be up there..)

^Yeah, I think so, too. I wonder what the ranking would be if all songs were to be included...

To see "talkin' 2 myself" up so high in the PV ranking is kinda surprising though.

where is No way To Say? OO

yay for ayuu

I'm glad that SEASONS is an nº3.

thanks for the info >:D !

i would love to se part of me in there thou!

:D:D

Thank you for posting.Once again INSPIRE is not in the list :( but Yay for BLUE BIRD :yes

Thanks

Oh I see.. but that's a pity. If only all songs are to be included for the ranking, for these 10 yrs that Ayu had sang.. not just those on A COMPLETE only. :D I certainly wld want to see RAINBOW up there! lolz.

I love seeing old songs on there. ^^

Thank you for sharing! :D

Wow. Thanks :D I'm Glad "M" is on the list. and on the TOP! LOL

Interesting lists there. Love that Voyage is the #1 PV...it's beautiful~ :D Here's to hoping Ayu is putting out beautiful music for the next 10 years! :)

Haha japanese like their ayu ballads. I'm pleased to see TO BE there. It's sort of like a dark horse to me. Kinda underrated. Very surprised to see boys & girls and evolution there. For the PV section, i'm also surprised more edgy PVs were not there. Interesting charts.

Im happy Step You is on there for PV I love that one.

voyage is the number one PV? what??? i don't mind the full movie that much, but just the PV for voyage i'm not so crazy about. :shrug

I actually kinda prefer the abridged PV.... the full film is extraordinarily unsatisfying o_O Its plot had more holes than a knit sweater.

Kinda hating that "SEASONS" is treated as a PV there.... as far as I'm concerned, it's vogue/Far away/SEASONS, all one PV. That's how it was intended, for one thing. For another, how does SEASONS even make sense out of context of the rest of the PV?

I'm gonna pretend it says all 3 songs there. :P
