We are going to make a podcast about Ayu...

[Zacek]

And I'd like to know what would you like to hear... We will be talking since her early years before Avex, until the new Tour and the new single... Could you help me to aport interesting facts about her? I don't know, everything will be fine, please!!! Thanks in advance!

[Neo Daydream]

an Ayu podcast sounds really awesome! You should talk about EVERY aspect of Ayu!
i.e. her style, voice, personality, business, music, fans, etc! ^^

[Zacek]

Yes, I know, we have aprox 5 hours, so.... what things are worth to comment?

[polka-dot-jewel]

Wow, 5 hours is a long time for a podcast!! o___o Is this just a one time podcast, for her 10th year?

You should definitely talk about her achievements, her rankings, her as a producer, singer, actress, songwriter...maybe have some input from fans, such as why they like her, or other stuff like that.

[minna]

and don't forget to talk about AHS?!
just like a little thing at the end


how podcast is working by the way, is it free?

It's posted somewhere, then you download it.. you can subscribe to it, it's like a radio show for download. A lot of people listen to it on their ipod (that's why it's called a podcast I think).

Anyway, you could also talk about her recent trip to Paris, with the fans there, her being surprised and all nice to the people.

Her article on Wikipedia is actually quite good, I'd use that too.

But please don't compare her to Britney or Madonna Britney killed her reputation a long time ago, and Madonna is overly pushy about her religion and political opinions. I like the fact that I don't know ayu's opinions on a lot of things, her political views or religion. (even though she appears to be a catholic christian)

[KuroixShiroi_Namida]

Awesome idea !

I think in terms of success and sales etc, then it's fine... like if you're talking to a Western Pop fan - "oh this ayumi singer, she's like the Britney/Madonna of Japan, she's an idol there."

I love the idea, although 5 hours is a LONG time.

[MemorialAddress]

Yeah really, do not compare her to anyone

Yeah, Ayu's above comparison. Get to knowww.

Yea, but you could just say "oh, she's like one of their biggest icons".
She's the Britney of Japan.. then they're gonna think she shaves her head, has multiple personalities (british accent) and god knows what

Ayu with an english accent would be awesome though tbh XD.

This podcast sounds pretty cool tho, hope it turns out well

[alternarist]

mention about her being half deaf.

[Bashumaru]

I want to listen to it but whos gunna host it?

[Lanz16]

And mention about her very successful Asian Tour ~Tour of Secret~ last year.

[ayumisrael]

Well you should make it long because there's a lot to say about ayu and a good amount of special songs that should be put up and I would wait for Mirrocle World to be released that you can put it and Depend on you + YOU 10th anniversary versions, of course poker face (and if you can Fly high (HAL'S MIX 2000) please please!). And maybe one of the b-sides like ever free!

[AmyRoseM]

Ahh!! A podcast about AYU!! How fun!

It would be really cool if you could find some really rare facts. Like if you could get someone to translate old magazine articles (I know we have a couple here, but even more!) and really dig deep. I'd mention the relationship with her mother/father/grandma, because that's always touched me, and even briefly mention her relationship to Tomoya (because the fact that she was with another celebrity for 7 years has always been amazing to me, and really shows a lot about her loyalty and capacity to love another). I'm not trying to get it to sound to tabloid/gossipy, but I just think a few of these things would be interesting to both current Ayu fans and those just learning about her.

The other parts will be easy: Just talk about amazing she is! I know I could go on for hours. :p lol.

[prussian blue]

what is a podcast actually?
i thought you all talking bout post card

[rikku411]

Nice idea! But don't compare her to anyone, please You can just say she is and has been one of the biggest artists in Japan.

I think it's worth mentioning her personality (her dedication and hardworking attitude) along with the other things that makes Ayu herself: her ever-changing style in fashion and music, how involved she is with her music, the way she treats her fans, how she speaks to everyone at the end of concerts and yells out "ARIGATOU GOZAIMASHITA!!"... that's really cool.

It's hard to say everything about anyone though, lol, so just the stuff that make her stand out

I agree! If possible once you'd talked about that, play the sound when she yells her thank you while everyone's silent!
