Ayu sounding like Namie

[sokeri]

Yeah im talking about the 3rd song real me.
Ayu really sounds like namie during her verses(not the chorus though)
Copying Namie style?
One more thing,i heard from others that Ayu once had face surgury to keep her face so doll-like and cute.dunno whether there is any truth in it,pls enlighten!Jealousy perhaps?
oh n merry xmas!!~~

[ImpactBreaker]

jealousy is a song from aikawa LOL

Ayumi would never be jealous of Namie...There are many styles out there and Ayu is always changing her styles so it's not a surprise if she changes to a style from another artist...I think that's what never makes ayu boring! The surgery stuff has never been confirmed and it will probably never be so it's best not to keep discussing: yes she did, no she didn't.....it will be a discussion with no end LOL

Merry xmas to you too!

[xluvayux]

I agree with Impact baby!! YEAH!! *dances*

[kazuni]

I thought she sounded like boa rather.. the intro especially (song, not voice) ... lol

[mrAznnizeguy]

omg.. sokeri.. i was going to post the SAME EXACT THING!! haha.. it reallie does sound like her the first time i heard it.. i thought it was namie'z style~

[tinyppl]

[sokeri]

Please. . . DO NOT start the surgery comment again.

Ayu doesn't sound like she's imitating Namie, and if she did, why would she? As a guide to pronouncing English? I disagree. Ayu already knows a bit of English and spoke the English the best way she could pronounce it in Real me. At times Namie has trouble pronouncing her English but that's common with Japanese singers.

Yeah, saying that ayu is copying namie was alittle too over-exaggerated. I'd rather say "coincidentally similar"

[hiro]

well the voice and singing style is anything unlike Namie's and BoA's. it is a poppish song, much like what BoA releases but it has a distinct flavour that makes it Ayu.

[EdenZone]

i don't feel similarity

[Sakura_Drops]

I don't think it sounds like Namie.

[Piccolo]

Yeah, I'm not noticing any similarties here.

[shavoingin]
