So I finally got around to listening to Finally. I'm not a fan of some of the re-recordings (she sounds fine. It just doesn't hold the same charm as the original recordings). That being said, it was fascinating hearing her progression as an artist from her time with SUPER MONKEYS to her solo debut. Then the transition into a more urban artist and then back to pop music towards the end of her career.

It's bittersweet. I'm happy she's at peace and leaving on a high. She accomplished what she set out to do. Even though I do not listen to Jpop anymore, she was such a staple in my life as a kid and into my adult years. I'm going to miss her.
