I discovered ayu in 2006.
It was kind of weird, but I was a huge fan of final fantasy. I watched a fanvideo, and the song on it was really good, but it didnt tell me what song it was, so i showed it to my friend hoping that she would know, but she didnt
Me and my friend were searching for months to try and find out who the song was by, but then i had to stop looking cuz i had to go to hospital
When i got back, my friend came over and was like "GUESS WHAT I FOUND!!" and she put a song on. It was the song we had been looking for, called "evolution" by ayumi hamasaki
Later that day i went on the internet and listened to more of her songs and i thought that she was really good. Eventually i became a huge fan, and so did my friend. She used to give me most of the titles, but not anymore ^^ cuz i know them all hehe
The first Ayumi album that i ever got was (miss) understood, for christmas, my dad looked at the history and noticed that there were ayumi hamasaki songs, so he got me it.
I've been downloading them ever since, theyre cheaper to download because of the whole postage and packaging thing, but my dads on cdJAPAN now instead of YESASIA so he gets them from there.
I became obsessed with her music since i got that album. I watched her lives and PV's on youtube and i thought this woman had talent. Now i really want to see her live, Mum says maybe later on, after my A level exams......if i pass.
Now the rest of my friends are becoming known to her, (mainly because everytime they come over and im in my room theres an ayu track blasting away) and have started to kind of like her, theyre obbsessed with another band which is pretty cool XD
My dad had to listen to her while taking me to apppoinments and is starting to like her also (i got a "shes got a nice voice" from him O.O)
Problem with living in the UK is, if i talk to my friends about her when we're in town, other people look at me as if to say "WTF is she talking about?". mind you, if ayu DID decide to tour in the UK people would suddenly think they know all about her and go "Hey she's fairly recent isnt she?"
Get that a lot at school with current "new" bands coming allong to fame
