DO THE MOTION - BoA

kumi kuu - you :luv2

koda kumi - You
wow..just realise that its my first time give vote to kuu...LOL

Kuu - you

Never listened to BoA or Ami's songs. But Chase the Chance flat-out SUCKS. Terrible arrangement and Namie sounds like total crap in the song. I wish TK would have taken the time to tell Namie to learn how to pitch right in that song xD you is okay, but I prefer the piano version. Movin' on without you is boring though...so I guess I go with you.

Movin' On Without You

koda kumi - you

Chase the Chance.

i gotta give it to BoA, that song was insanely catchy. the other songs are just kind of blah.

Ami gets my vote :yes

I voted for kuu's you.

i would've voted for BE TOGETHER if it was the remix nakata did for her, i love that one! voted for kuu's you, though. i love both the song and the PV for it.

So close between Namie and Amigo :( but I went with Chase the Chance

ami Suzuki - be Together!
both the music video and the song itself were light years ahead of their time. even after 10 years it sounds so new and fresh. definitely one of my favorite songs of all time.

be together :love

I'm gonna go with Namie's Chase the Chance.

Chase the Chance

Chace the Chance - Namie Amuro

そんなんじゃないよ 楽しいだけ
止まらない衝動に 従うだけ

平坦な感動に興味はない
退屈な時間はいらない
Hey Yo!

Just Chase the Chance 信じてる道は
Chase、Chase the Chance まっすぐに生きよう
夢なんて見るモンじゃない
語るモンじゃない
叶えるものだから

Just Chase the Chance 誰も止められない
Wild & Touch 暴れ出した欲望
Just Chase the Chance 愛も夢もぜんぶ
この胸にはいつだってあふれてる

楽しまなきゃ生きてる意味がない
だけど楽しいばかりじゃハリがない
山も谷もない道じゃつまらない
ジェットコースターにならない
教えこまれた協調性
イイ子はイイ子にしかなれないよ
もうどうしようもないビンビン来てる
Just Chase the Chance

もうちょっと抱いていて欲しい時も
タイムリミットは曲げない主義でいたい

愛なんて美しくなくっていい
こわいくらいでもいい

もうずっと昔に欲しかったような
ねだるような 気持ちをおぼえてる

手に入れるまで泣いたこと
ダダをこねたあの日を
Hey Yo!

Just Chase the Chance もうもどれないって
Chase、Chase the Chance 嘆かないでいい
夢なんて過去にはない
未来にもない
現在追うものだから

Just Chase the Chance 立ち止まらないで
Don't Look Back 覚悟はいいかい?
Just Chase the Chance この手でつかもう
甘くそして危険な夢の実を

もうなんだってアリみたいな時代だから
モタモタしてちゃ損だから
A to Zだけじゃ足りなそうだから
身体で話そう
誰のせいでもないから怒らないけどね
近頃つまらない
つまらなければおかしくすればいい
Chase、Chase the Chance

どうやって君は夢を守るの?
かかえきれない夢守るの?

どうやって君は愛を探すの?
抱きしめることでわかるの?
Hey Yo!

Just Chase the Chance 信じてる道は
Chase、Chase the Chance まっすぐに生きよう
夢なんて見るモンじゃない
語るモンじゃない
叶えるものだから

Just Chase the Chance 誰も止められない
Wild & Touch 暴れ出した欲望
Just Chase the Chance 愛も夢もぜんぶ
この胸にはいつだってあふれる

Just Chase the Chance
Chase、Chase the Chance
Just Chase the Chance
もう張り裂けそうな この胸の鼓動

Just Chase the Chance
Chase、Chase the Chance

Chase The Chance - Namie Amuro (1995)

^Totally random.

I vote for "you". As much as I like BoA, she can't beat a good winter ballad.

you - Kuu

Nothing's gonna stop me, only you can stop me~ oh whoa oh whoa~

Movin' on without you by Hikki is a classic! you by Koda Kumi is a close second though!

same.

I decided to vote for Utada this time. Movin' on without you is one of my favourite songs of hers and also very nostalgic to me because it's one of the first Utada songs I heard. I also love other songs a lot, but yes. My vote goes for Hikki this time. She sounds so good in this song. <3 Chase the Chance and you were the others I could had voted. Those are on the same level of quality with Movin' on without you for me. :)

DO THE MOTION. I love that song!!

kuu's YOU

BoA, I barely liked the others.

you.

btw you wrote "chace" instead of "chase"

Ayu totally eclipses Ami Suzuki!

namie gets my vote :yes

Chase the Chance ofcourse.

such a fun song. :D

Kumi Koda - You

You by Kuu.

Koda Kumi -YOU!!!

Movin on without you. I've never listened to the other songs, so my vote counts for pretty much nothing. I legitimately love that song, though!
