I understand it’s difficult if not impossible for her to maintain that style, but I guess the main appeal with Ayu for me was that she always sounded as if someone was wringing her heart dry as she poured out her soul into the song. Almost as if she was in pain because of how strongly her emotions were consuming her. Here it just kinda sounds like she’s sitting pleasantly in a rocking chair before a floor full of snot nosed kids singing nursery rhymes. Lmao.

People do sound different when they sing in other languages, i noticed that with Miyavi, HYDE, Jaejoong, Alan.... The pronunciation is different and so are the way you use air to produce sounds needed. Ayu's the most extreme though, i thought it was someone else..but then, she's not familiar with chinese, so her not sounding like she usually does is understandable.... I don't hate this deeper register though.
