I hope they start making calculus pills if that's the case! If you xiliration honestly feel this way sure I'll discuss it more but if this was meant to just be an addition to the other posts at the top of this page, it all seems just a bit overboard. "AYU IZ PURFCT LALALA I CANT HEAR U, UR NOT A REAL FAN SOD OFF." Again I'm generalizing, but this attitude just seems really prevalent in any topic that remotely hints of Ayumi not being a goddess who farts rainbows and sunshine. Then other artists people enjoy are pulled in and generally insulted etc etc, it's all really silly.

You brought up a good point Hanabiwings, when I first listened to "Will" I was thinking of how smoothly she transitioned into the traditional singing style and then again, it all seemed perfectly natural for her to do so. With her song "Nothing from Nothing" the rap parts were just torture to listen to, but with her singing in the little intermissions of sorts it was very legato however it sounded like there was some aural tampering in the sound room to create the not-quite vibrato/echo effect.

I didn't bring up Utada to shut out the Ayumi conversation, I brought it up because I honestly don't like Utada's vibrato that much XD
