AVEX Tribute To HAMASAKI AYUMI!

[Didz-19]

Ayumi have been in the music industry for years..I'm hoping that AVEX will make a compilation album tribute for Ayu where all of her song re-sung by other AVEX artists.

How about you guys? What do you think about this? What if Namie Amuro sing "Rule" and Koda Kumi sing "You were...". I'm a bit curious about the result... Let's discuss!!!

[lovelism]

Haha! The result would be interesting thought~

[Bigtop]

That's quite interesting, but Avex does not have any plans right now...

[love in music]

I would not like that. The original feelings of the songs would be totally lost. :/

[Kingdom]

I think it would be pretty cool!

[nanakopy87]

i don't really like this idea but its interesting to see people cover her songs
and then,we'll have ton of polls here.
'which version is better.original singer or XXX?'

[waterballoon]

it'd be interesting! Ken Hirai did a cover of LOVE ~Destiny~ a while ago and it was reli fun so I hope this idea actually realizes!

[emi♡]

It was cool when people did it for Judy and Mary...but Ayu doesn't seem as "receptive" to have other people cover her songs...

I think it would be cool if they did something for her, like throw the biggest party of the year...but that's all I really see them doing as far as activities that involve other artists.

Remember Hirai Ken did make a cover version of "LOVE~Destiny~" in his Ken's Bar II album.

I want to see Beckii Cruel do Sexy little things.

[C+R+E+AYUMI]

I'd like to listen to it! It would be a nice idea to celebrate her neverending success!

ya i know.and i actually listen to hirai's version once and never want to listen it again
i just feel that ayu's songs are only ayu can sing it.if other people cover any of the songs,the 'feel' will be very different,IMO

[Mirrorcle Monster]

I think Koda would sing well INSPIRE

[Ranma Matsuri]

It's a good idea on paper but in actuality:

Those would be the result of such a project. Imho, Ayu's songs are too... there's too much of herself in them for them to really "resonate" with another person. It'd feel like karaoke night and they just decided to do each other's songs and Ayu's was next on the list or something. While the genuine good intentions would be there, the genuine feelings in the songs they sing... and Ayu's own genuine feelings towards seeing them attempt to connect with them probably wouldn't. But yeah, I think it'd be cool if they did it but I'm not that positive about the result.

(1,000th post! Who... intiate! I officially spend too much time here. XD )

[kagami]

^ I agree. It's always weird hearing other people sing her songs. They never feel right.

I think I know what you mean. It's because she writes & put hersel in her song. She gives her maximum because each song is a part of her.
It's like if another artist try to have the same face that her. But Ayu is Ayu & nobody can be like her.^^
She's the only Ayumi Hamasaki

yay! Moreover i think it would be interesting to listen to other great artists such as kuu and namie interpretating her lyrics and the feeling of her songs

[AyUmIXx]

this is a good idea..
I wanna see all those young singers to sing Ayu's songs~
and i can't see Kuu/Namie sing Ayu's songs because they could be said at the same level as Ayu~ moreover Namie, she was so famous before then Ayu came along..

[ohsixthirty]

i would like to see something like this, but i don't think i want to see it yet. maybe at her 15 year mark or something.

although, i would be annoyed if i liked someone's cover more than the original, hahaa.
