I know that shes influeced by Madonna
and according to wikipedia she also is influeced by Babyface, Led Zeppelin
she admires Michelle Branch, Kid Rock, Joan Osborne,
Seiko Matsuda, Rie Miyazawa, and Keiko Yamada
so im guessing she listens to them
oh and also she likes Sweetbox

She also likes TRF and Yuumi Matsutouya. She's covered two of Yuming's songs: 卒業写真 and 春よ、来い.
And she's covered teens which is a TRF song ... right?

JackieRos 23rd August 2009 02:55 PM

Keiichi_JPU 23rd August 2009 11:04 PM

She's a huge fan of Hikki of course :)

Why else do you guys think she named her short film Distance Love... ;)

(just kidding, but it'd be damn awesome)

I guess we can add DBSK. :)

She's mentioned that she listens to the Smashing Pumpkins at least twice.
Quote:

Who do you listen to?
Smashing Pumpkins. Joan Osborne. I loved her song in [the movie] Vanilla Sky, so I bought the soundtrack but it wasn't on it. I asked everyone about it, and finally my friend in Hawaii told me who it was. Also Michelle Branch. She's big in Japan now, and really young. Oh, and Kid Rock. If anything I lean toward his kind of music. Like a mix of things—rock, grunge, rap
Quote:

  (A) Though I had listened to Smashing Pumpkins so often until I was tired of it. (Laugh) But I think most people can't imagine so without doubt. They would say, "Huh? Ayu would never listen to such music."
  (S) You are eager to link yourself with it now, aren't you?
  (A) Yes. But somehow, I'm not so ambitious of it. It's all right even if I don't realize it. I only like to enjoy the process toward it.
  (S) I see. You like to enjoy yourself now. Otherwise, I think you wouldn't have suggested to do this work with us. (Laugh)
  (A) Really.
  (S) I think you would have been reluctunt. (Laugh)
  (A) Huhuhuhu.
  (S) How do you like Smashing Pumpkins?
  (A) Let me see. What do you call that --- like an obi (band of paper) of a CD?
  (S) Huh? An obi.
  (A) Ah, it's and obi. (Laugh) You know? On the obi of "Mellon Collie", which I've listened to before this interview, written as "Infinite Sadness." Somehow I liked the phrase very much at first, not the songs. I liked the phrase "Infinite Sadness" very much, just when I saw it before buying it. I wondered what it was, listened to it, and thought --- "Ah ! The obi is right." Hahahaha. Actually I have no knowledge of other artists, whether foreign or Japanese. So all I can do is to find in such a way at first.
  (S) I think it's just the belief of Billy Corgan, the leader of Smashing Pumpkins. That sadness is one of the great emotions, the great asset in life, and one must not deny it, though he doesn't affirm it, either. I think he is the person who maintains in music with courage that nothing will be solved without facing it, and so is his music. You felt sympathy in that respect, didn't you?
  (A) I think so.
  (S) And you wish to do like him, don't you?
  (A) I think so. It's somehow very ... tender, beautiful, kind and healing on the one hand. But on the other hand, distant and horryfying. I feel so very much somehow. Tremendously cold, I feel.
   (S) Smashing Pumpkins kept on doing so, created quite high quality music. But the quality didn't satisfy that man who aimed at even higher level of music, and the band broke up. I think Hamasaki-san is at the starting point in the sense now.
  (A) Yes.
   (S) I think your music expresses such "Infinite Sadness" as energy, but that it hasn't bloomed yet as music. Talking with you now, I feel you know that more than anyone else. And I think you wish to make for the place very much now.
  (A) ... Huhuhuhu. Yes.

She also likes Matsu Takako, apparently. Dunno if anyone's said that yet.

In 1999 she said she listened to Baby VOX and En Vogue, previously she listened to Deep Purple and Led Zeppelin

Embleu 25th August 2009 12:15 AM

In a Popteen interview, she mentioned her favorite CD at the time was "Pink" (I'm assuming she meant the one by Boris).
