I don't really ever listen to Ai or Mika, so I went and listened.
Mika's ballad is nice, her voice is quite nice, I've heard it before, but I like it in this song. The song isn't really my style, but it's still nice, but I have to kind of agree with, I think moomba, it's sort of boring. And I know alot of people think that about her music...unfortunately now, it's sort of true. Nothing memorable at all, nothing new. Her voice kind of gets lost in the song, which adds to the...makes-me-want-to-sleep-yness...
Hikki's ballad...I remember listening to it a while back and thinking, yeah boring, going to listen again, let's see...I like this melody better than Mika's, it seems more prominent, less boring, right now it seems better. I don't want to fall asleep while listening to it, it's like, her voice keeps you interested. Even with her airy upper range, which is kind of characteristic of hikki sometimes, i enjoy it more. again...Hikki also seems to have a better grasp of what a "melody line" is, which you can really tell with her use of chords and such. Definitely better than Mika's.
Ai...woah...that was wierd...and only 3:00...to be honest, i think that is enough...I mean, it was cute, and catchy, but obviously not the same level material as utada and mika, not comparable...the PV...does anyone want to explain the man in the tub...could they have at least made him hot? And the striped guy coming out of that female organ looking thing...Okay...just wierd, I would obviously not vote for this...but hey...who knew ai was so cute...okay, yeah...everyone...
Hikki, definitely.
