Another Vietnamese singer covers Ayu's song.
 

And this time, it's one of the best songs from NEXT LEVEL: GREEN.

The name of this terrible version is "Tears of the White Dew-drop flower" (beat me, i have no idea what does "white dew-drop flower" mean. Is it exist???? just translate it from the vietnamese name).
I have to tell, the lyrics are complicated, conflicting and have no meaning. can't understand these stupid things.
The singer is Vân Navy. She's not a real singer anyway. her voice is weak. and all of her 3 previous songs are... covers. (or you can say, stealing.)

Vân Navy - Nước Mắt Hoa Sương Trắng (Tears of the White Dew-drop Flower)

MF


And of course there is no credit for Avex or Ayu. Just "Music: Oversea. Vietnamese lyrics: Van Navy".

nice outfits, nice stage. too bad she's just so lazy to have her own song!

With next level being ayus latest album with green, I wounder if avex will do anything about this

im not saying vietnamese are copycats but pretty much all asian countries like to use other artists music to convert to their language. im part thai/viet and i hear the same songs but sung in diff. languages. so im not surprised BUT they should get permission from the company and the artist. she doesnt sound too bad. i kinda like it ^^

it sounds.... wierd @_@''
and her voice is too computerised/hollowed.... :thud

i want to grab this Van Navy by the hair... make her sit in a chair, push the chair back, make her fall, take off that stupid $2 fake polyester kimono, pour chocolate syrup on her stupid hair, wipe that stupid eyeliner off her eye, wipe that off color foundation from her face, apply a new layer of matching foundation, stomp on her face, tell her she has bad style, tell her her face is weird and suggest a good plastic surgeon for her, punch her stomach, and then make her eat a pho noodle soup and make her wash the bowl after! I AM SO ANGRY at her!

At first I thought I just wasn't really paying attention to the song, really after listening to it a few times I still have no idea what the song mean or what she trying to say. I can pick out parts of it but the lyrics seems really random and unconnected, but then again it could be because my Vietnamese is really bad. However it can't be that bad if I'm fluent enough to understand and communicate in daily life. It would also be easier to understand if she enunciate better, honestly I think a lot of singers have that problem their words seem to slur together (if that makes any sense) and its hard to understand.

my thoughts exactly :laugh
and it's a TOTAL ripoff. i expected it just to sound similar.. also the girl sounds like she's about to throw up

i wonder if avex would react

she does sound as if she's about to vomit... :laugh

I like the pictures though...they're nice.

she seems decent looking.. but her voice isnt strong enufff!!! + need more emotion :)

While the very beginning is identical, the rest of the instrumentals sound like a karaoke track or something. Kinda odd. The vocals remind me of the 80s with the echo lol.

Meh...it's not..HORRIBLE. But yes her voice is hollow and pretty weak. Her kimono is unbelievably fake and for some stupid reason that part pisses me off a lot .+.; Not that her "covering" the song w/o persmission makes it any better.

Avex didnt do anythiing about the other cover by that guy...~ soo.....i dont really think theyll do much about this girlie~ but who knows~

her kimono...like JAV idol outfit.....echI!

I also wonder maybe she saw a clip of it, from how she's dressed and how her hair is, it looks like it was based of ayus PCDL going by the kimono and the red thing she has on her head, you can clearly tell its not the same but it has similar style to what ayu wore for her live of GREEN at PCDL

the pics are of her performing that song????

I'm a vietnamese, but still don't understand the lyrics which is so random and unconnected. pay no attention to it, it's not worth.


Nice compare lol. she would be a good echi idol. not a good singer.




yes that is. i'm finding the clip.


her voice are so weak, depends so much on the studio effect which made her voice become ridiculous.
listen to her cover, then return to ayu's one, just like return to heaven from hell.


I think Avex won't do anything. just post this to let you guys know. have something to chit chat.

why do loads of vietnamese songs have some kind of echo effect on the voice to make it sound more smooth? :S
Hmm Anyway; yea a cover indeed... and not a very good one

If the single is selling a lot of copies they will.

Avex won't touch her. They didn't go for the guy who stole Marionette either.
I actually like it. Not as good as the original but it's a nice rendition. Shame the lyrics are worthless. But I don't speak Vietnamese so it's okay. XD

What annoys me with these covers is that they don't even make changes to the song....it's just a total rip off XD At least try to hide that they're just ripping off someone else's song lol

the echo effect kinda annoys me @_@

we should report her :sdevil Well she stole it anyway D:
I think this cover is really horrible.

I think it sounds too overproduced on the vocal side and the music sounds like a crappy karaoke backing track :/

I don't like her voice and I think this singer could at least make another arrangement for the song instead of simply copy it :grumpy.

Same here!

OMG! Being a Vietnames myself I just want to crawl out of my own skin and bury my head in the sand. Embarrassing! She sounds bored and unattached. Ayu deserves better covers like Bentley Johnson's :)

oh no.. not again??!!
It's gonna irritate me lots when they 'steal' Ayu's song jus like tat! oh well.,...

I've never listened to a foreign cover before so it's kind of weird to be listening to GREEN and not understanding anything.

She didn't get permission? ( :no )

was she trying to look like Ayu, too?

anyway, thanks for the news.

wwwoww thx for sharing this!!
and i think she's a big fan of Ayu!

It's not so bad especially since it certainly beats the hell out of Sunrise.

These Vietnamese singers need to start crediting people for their music though. The melody is different where it counts so one could say that it's just like the song the Chinese song that sounded like Green when it first came out.

because of their weak voice -> they can not be a good singer -> so they usually cover / steal foreign music + use so much studio effects to hide their weakness.

but I have to tell, just like other countries, VN really have amazing artists! too sad that people around the world just know about the other bad ones.

omg her voice is so fake/edited with the echos! and gosh they slowered the song down, now it sounds horrible... and she sounds... so EMOTIONAL!!!

Ya..slowing the song down does her no justice.

well...i like the stage and outfit. :yes she's very pretty.

and how do we know she didn't get permission to use this song???

Do you have a working link to this performance? Her voice doesn't fit this song. >.>

I'm Vietnamese and used to all this ripping off. XD It's always terrible and always sounds cheap.

stolen?? mmh. Anyway the stage is nice and her costume really appariscent but good.

Couldn't she have a more intelligent title?? It sounds terrible @__@

I don't like this song, but it sounds good... I think better than Ayu version

She doesn't have to credit ayu. She should have credited the chinese song, in which GREEN copied without permission and credits.

Or maybe you can save your anger to do the same thing to ayu. After all, GREEN is a copy of a Chinese song, with no credits to the original :yes

compared with her, i like the previous guy who sings Marionette cover song more!!

his vocal is so strong~

I don't know what to say... It's really not good that she didn't give any credit, but I don't think the cover is really that bad. Okay, her voice isn't really amazing or anything, but I actually like the chorus... But Ayu's version is still so much better. :yes

which chinese song is that? i only heard a tiny bit of it that sounds similar but not all, i guess?

and even if it's copy from other song, the music arranger & composer of GREEN is the one who needs to be blamed, not Ayu :) since Ayu only contributed the lyric :)

i doubt that they copied from that chinese song because even if they did, they should have made the proper credits to the owners of the songs, just like how they credited sweetbox for most (m)u songs~

anyway, i didn't see any of "the GREEN copied a chinese song issue" hyped up when it was released,.... if it really copied, i guess that media would make a big fuss about it??

sorry, not that i want to make wars..but i don't think Ayu/avex ppl will covers/copy ppl songs without permissions, that's just what i think~ :)

several of us sent letters to avex during the last time but nothing was done. i think vietnam is not worth their time. no offense to any of the vietnamese members of AHS but WTF is wrong with these people?!?!

:S GREEN isn;t a copy of a chinese song, right? I mean, possibly using a sample is not copying/covering a song at all. The composition of GREEN is nothing like that chinese song that once popped up.. I find it disappointing that some people have no insight in this..

Whatever it is, it still is quite disgusting how this 'cover' tries pathetically to copy the beats/synths at the start of GREEN as well... it's just laugh-able when done amateurishly. the only thumbs up I'll give to this 'cover' is the ending... I think I like it better like that. :laugh

Yep, true, someone amazing like Ho Ngoc Ha, Oh god, u actually speak out my thought dude!
Speakin' about Van Na Vy, who actually care about her if she credit Ayu or not, =/ She's just not goin' anywhere near the Fame with this.

anyone has found the youtube of the performance yet?
i'm really curious of how she performed GREEN..

i think it's not a big problem...
just like snsd stole uzbekistanist singer - Dineyra's raqsga tushgin...
wkwk~

Uhhh... It's definitely NOT a copy of that Chinese song. No offense, but did you even listen to the song before making that accusation? If you had, you'd know they sound like, nothing alike.

This, on the other hand, is a TOTAL, COMPLETE, 100% obvious rip-off of GREEN. And yeah, she needs to credit whoever wrote GREEN.

they sold the song duh. You cannot just cover a song like taht. You have to buy it. Like Jolin.

Then, why are people saying they'll smash this singer's face when she wasn't crediting herselçf for the lyrics? It goes both ways.

First, sweetbox copied/sampled from a original song when he made Pride, and they didn't credit the originals. Second, ayu's composers batantly copied/sampled from the movie soundtrack THE MESSENGER when they made Free & Easy. I have concrete proofs for these, that the original songs were ripped off and that no credits were ever given.

You surely didn't pay attention to some of the threads that popped up. There surely were at least one up to a couple.


But they've done it and they do it, either you want to believe it or not.

I listened, and GREEN was definitely ripping off of that song. Not a 100% rip off, but it was sampling heavily, and they didn't credit it.

^octolina was the only one I saw say they would smash her face blah blah etc. And I still don't think that Chinese song and GREEN sound anything alike. :shrug

His vocals were pretty darn good weren't they?

Actually, with that being said---I'd like to hear more of these illegal Vietnamese covers of J-pop tunes. I'm actually starting to like V-pop because of this thread...:P

:yes I totally agree. GREEN just sounds a lot faster and more modern. But the chorus is definitely sampling...or unfortunately, stolen IMO.

wow again?!

GREEN had the same notes as the Chinese song... the melody (at least the chorus)... is the same. ImpactBreaker, I'm not exactly sure but I've heard Free & Easy had the front piano part like sampled from somewhere.

Also Pride or rather the Sweetbox song... the chorus or whatever was sampled/taken from a song as well... I can't remember the name.

Also, why would avex not want to credit any songs they sample? Crediting = paying = losing money, and if any company can do it, they would want to cut as much cost as possible.

However, at least Ayu/avex is at least smart that they make the songs sound NICER than the originals... at least people wouldn't b itch about it. But for the Vietnamese covers... they sound horrendously worse than the songs they sample... that it causes b itching among people. :)

ImpactBreaker, can you give me THE MESSENGER music/song u're talking about?
and also the GREEN original chinese song?
i wanna listen to those of how much they sound alike..or exactly the same just like how this GREEN-cover does?

and that person who wants to smack this singer's face, just let him be

Honestly, I really don't think that those like, 5 notes or whatever, were intentionally copied by whoever wrote GREEN. It really doesn't even sound all that similar, to be honest.

In either case, Ayu is not responsible, and I don't think this... Van Navy girl is really to blame for it either. She might not even know it's a copy. :shrug

yeah in a humorous way, i always want to see VN singers copy Ayu's. because lots of korean, chinese, thailand's stuffs were done in my country, but not ayumi. I wonder why didn't they copy sth from her. such a great stuff to copy.

and now "Ayu's wannabe Era" begins!

yeah i want to hear the other original versions too.

and to the person who wanted to smack Van Navy face: it's not worth. save your energy, live a heathly and happy life!
