I find it sad when people are overly harsh on her vocals these days. Like they do understand the woman is deaf in one ear right? That is going to affect singing and pitching like crazy. Also, ayu was NEVER known for her vocals. If you watch old tv show recordings she ain't really all that back then either.
Actually if you watch 2003-2004 TV performances, she was amazing comparing to how she sounds now.
