but after that everything when smoothly again after secret era IMO...congrats to ayu and like what extepan said..it's a welcomed change.
Actually the change started back in 2002 with Rainbow and was extremely noticeable from 2003 on.

I don't think her voice becoming deeper = her voice becoming more mature. Her deep voice is really good, especially in 2003 and 2005 I thought. But ever since the Jewel performance I've thought her voice was starting to sound like it was being damaged, not being more "mature."
