NO +_+ I just saying as it's my IMO~ cuz I dun listen to BoA(as well as Brit)... just never get it. Madonna & Kylie & Namie & Ayu are awesome enough...

Well would it really make sense for her to smile while singing songs like "WANT ME WANT ME" / other sexy songs? It'd be so out of place...

^ Sorry I didn't explain myself well, that wasn't really what I meant. xD; I meant something along the lines of a sassy look or something that brought out emotion from me.

Oh my post wasn't meant to be in reply to what you said xD I totally understood what you meant hahaha It was really aimed at other people.

DEFINITELY!

I would LOVE it, but I don't think their voices would go together well :-/.

If they picked the right song, then I'd be all for it .

Definitely. Gackt and Ayu's rock is very similar. It's almost interchangeable. Well for Ayu to sing GACKT songs would be so cool! I just think a rock collab would be tight!

[Not Fade Away]

^lol I would also love this. It would totally work too since they love rock and could totally do a rock song together.

And haha, I agree with the Namie Ice Queen comments. I love the fact that she's so 'cool'. Though I love it even more when she's singing solo, gets embarrassed by the audience and smiles haha.

I can't even imagine how they would perform together. Ayu doesn't dance so she'd be standing there making lots of dramatic gestures while Namie danced circles around her.

lol! I just imagined this perfectly.

I do think a Namie X Ayu collaboration would be cool though. Actaully, I think it'd be awesome if Ayu collaborated with any of the "J-Pop queens". (Kuu, Hikki, Ai, Namie...)

Although, I'm not sure their voices would mesh together well?

[LONJJONG]

It might be so awkward seeing them collaborating ~ huh?

[Not Fade Away]

^lol, I know right?

Namie's performance style kind of reminds me of Janet Jackson's a little bit. Both of them are more cool and like dance-oriented than dramatic (of course I've only seen a handful of Janet's performances, so I'm basing my opinion off of that).

I think she said Janet was one of her influences at one point in time too? I could totally be pulling that out of my butt though....teehee

I just think they're soooo different in styles of performance and in vocal techniques. The closest song Namie has to an Ayu song is probably Tempest and that's only because it reminds me of some of Ayu's 'epic' tracks in that sense.

I would still love it though....It would probably make my head explode because it would be two of my all-time favorite JPop artists on stage together.

Yeap, Namie is a huge Janet fan, and her both her performance style and most coreography are very inspired by Janet's...

Some people said Britney and Namie are somewhat similar... Britney also had a huge inspiration on Janet's choreography and overall performance style... So, they were inspired by the same person.

^ agree!
Actually, puttin' aside their voice, i think their image could totally blends quite well together, look at these pictures, isn't she the AYUMI.NAMIE?



I deeply wish this collaboration would happen x)

[Minttulatte]

^Never seen these pics before. She looks beautiful, and I can see some Ayu here too. They would be so cool together~

It was VIVI 2004, the cover even look'd more Ayuish x)
