I don't see the end of Ayu's pop queen era. I just see how people are now oriented more towards bands. - shrugs - It's just a matter of preference I suppose. People are now more interested to bands rather than solo female singers. But I do believe she is still better than other solo female singers.

Bennie K also did.
BUt I agree with you though, her era is not over, and frankly I think she has done the best job out of the "old" idols adapting to new times. I'm wondering how much I wanna be a pop star by Ken Hirai will sell though.
