We should be happy..

I've noticed often, there are alot of people who seem upset with this or that Ayu has done..
So I was watching J-popsuki winamp tv.. and after far too many Mini Moni and Morning Musume videos for my sanity (Mini moni scares me...)

I've come to the conclusion.. we should all be happy Ayu doesn't do songs like either of those two bands.. or videos like them..

lol not meant to be mean.. they're both cute bands.. but sometimes people are saying.. well Mini moni's songs are kinda cute.. but the vids make me wonder who was doing what sort of drug.. (lol).. my boyfriend and I just sit there like O.O;;; '...what did we just watch?' .. and my boyfriend thinks it's completely insane that morning musume is so large.. hehe, I find their vids a little plain though.. mainly just alot of dancing.. .. of any artist i've ever listened to (Japanese or no) .. Ayumi and Gackt have the best videos ever

Yay for Ayumi and Gackt!

I absolutely agree with you. We all should be happy. Ayu makes my life better/happier even if I don't like something she's doing. I'm so happy I know her and I can enjoy her music and stuff and I respect her.

I'm a huge fan of MM and MiniMoni

Ayu has the nicest PVs I have seen. They're perfect. And I don't say this often.

Ayu's lucky. She's with one of the biggest music companies which is ready to shell out money for her pvs which cannot be said for all artists.

No offense to any MiniMoni or Morning Musume fans out there, but I really don't understand why they're so popular/hyped up.....

But then again, can you really compare those two bands with Ayu? o_O They seem like they belong in different genres...

Yeah, they are completely different. But H!P groups are good in their own way too. I used to really hate/look down on Morning Musume and the subgroups, that is until I actually gave them a fair chance. Now I find them to be completely entertaining and fun to watch.

Close, but not completely right. The only stipulation for Mini Moni is that the girls are under 5 feet tall(I think). And while their music does sound more "kid friendly", they actually had many songs that took a hold on the mainstream public in Japan.

Oh my, so true! I don't understand either. I think the only reason Morning Musume's "well known" is because that name of the band has been around or so long. I've never really watched their PVs, I've only see their lives and they are SO boring. They dance around like a bunch of clowns.. [no offence] and I can never understand why people think that they're good.

Yeah, I think we should be happy that ayu is still producing music that are GOOD and you can see that she put a lot of effort towards her music. She takes her music seriously, that's all I can say.

well, ayu is one of the only artists to actually go out of japan to shoot at least one PV a year... you have INSPIRE and fairyland... and the PV really brings out the meaning of the song too.

But I like Morning Musume. I find their PVs to be enjoyable. but mini moni makes me wonder too. lol.

no they are different. morning misume is a whole bundle of at least 9 girls, while mini moni is 4 girls. mini moni sings kids songs, they are for the kids market.

^Like I said before, B&D is a maturely upbeat song.

Ayu's creativity and quirkiness ensures that we will not get bored with her PVs.

We should appreciate more that she has enough control over her music and her career!!

People keep complaining about Ayu's style with Bold & Delicious (which I love!) but if it weren't for that style, we would've have got alterna either

Most artist are limited to lyric writing sometimes...
