I'm straight, seeing Ayumi for the very first time (AT'06 DVD) was like a dream, but 'Large rose, sooooooo cheap, anyway she's soooooooooo adorable, I will watch her concert to the very end.' Later, I was trying to start liking her music, but GUILTY came out and I was disappointed. Somehow I've started to listen her rockish album and became more opened to the other kinds of music, since I was listening to songs, that almost everybody likes.
I always use Ayu's music as a test. When I meet someone for the first time and he asks me who I am listening to, I answer 'Hamasaki Ayumi and Koda Kumi' with a big smile on my face. After a minute of laughing out loud, because of his 'WTF?' I'm trying to explain myself. Often a new friend starts asking me some stupid questions, but when the final question comes 'Are you gay?' I know that person doesn't fit with me, because of his closed mind.
If I have a phone I would use a ringtone as a test, too. Middle of the lesson, suddenly my phone starts ringing:
SO 1.2.3.4 hitotsu zutsu
1.2 STEP you sou yatte
kimi no koto o shitte ikitai no
Oops, I forgot to turn it off, excuse me.
Teacher: Um, whose song was that? (yeah, some teachers really like to discuss with me about my intrests, which sometimes makes me sick, it's unprofessional. But always somebody else starts a silly topic like 'What would you wear on the prom?', then teachers ask me and I have to close the topic with a clever answer)
It's Hamasaki Ayumi, the biggest japanese pop star (surname in the front makes her name sound weider XD)
I'm just trying to promote nice things, which aren't known. The same goes with fashion, but I buy clothes almost only in local stores, since asian ones are really expensive, people are shocked anyway, how a guy can wear green slim fit jeans?
Listening to Ayu doesn't make me effeminate in my opinion other people may think so. Watching other male artists as a fashion gurus makes me really effeminate, sorry.
Everyone wants to be stylish and look good, face it~!
