Let's not forgot the "Depend on you (Japanese Bonus Track)" and thanks for the news.

ownsarai 8th May 2008 07:27 PM

hmm...his pronounciation of the words are totally weird to me...but it's definitely an interesting cover. Thanks for the news.
edit: I actually like his Depend on Me version better than his Japanese cover.

panda87 8th May 2008 07:28 PM

the3ye 8th May 2008 07:30 PM

Coelacanth 8th May 2008 07:30 PM

It'd be awesome if somebody could.. yeah.. find it.

*Petit* 8th May 2008 07:32 PM

:luv2 OMG! IT's amazing! Both versions! Why can't ayu make this as well? lol It's almost liek HAL arranged it as well.

Empry 8th May 2008 07:33 PM

Both covers are really nice <3 But yes, his Japanese prounonciation is a bit weird ^^;

~Matt~ 8th May 2008 07:35 PM

ayu is not mentioned anywhere?

m-ayu 8th May 2008 07:35 PM

Very interesting. Thanks for telling, never heard of him before. o_O
Who is he?

I mean I've read the biography section, but his name still hasn't ring a bell. ~_~;


oh, and I kinda like his cover (Japanese one).

chocopockymaster 8th May 2008 07:36 PM

Not as bad as the dude that's covering Voyage...Scott Murphy, was it? I actually quite like it! If someone could find it, perhaps...and was willing to share...:D

the3ye 8th May 2008 07:36 PM

I was thinking exactly the same thing :shakehead

EDIT: Ok, she's mentioned with the STEP you Mix as well as Avex :)

Anyways he's got talent and the English version is really good.

Wow, this is the second time in a month I've seen news of an American (or native English speaker) doing a re-make of an Ayu song...(lol See Ayu - people outside of Asia do love your music!)

I must admit - I do love his arrangement of "Depend on You". And I like the English version, too!! =)

And his Japanese probably sounds weird because he's probably not a native speaker of it, hence he doesn't have the accent of it and all...I think he sounds decent, actually. ^^

edit: He's British, not American. Haha. And his STEP you remix is interesting...there's not too much of him in it, though. :-/

Is this inferring that he wrote Depend on you because that's totally not cool if it is ;/ his cover is good though

gothicayu 8th May 2008 07:47 PM

i never heard about that guy before . i really dont like the english verion and the japanese one sounds awfull . ayu version is the best no one can beat this version

Ayumiko 8th May 2008 07:56 PM

its actually surprisingly good...o_O...but ofcourse ayu's version is better.

njanjayrp 8th May 2008 07:59 PM
