Ayu's TO BE covered by Angela An.

[truehappiness]

x.x

Ayu's never really taken another's lyrics except in two cases [I think.]

LOVE~since1999~ which tsunku [who does MoMusu's songs] does with ALL his members or something >>

and Sotsugyou Shashin.

The rest of her 'covers' are just reused compositions with different arrangements and lyrics that fit Ayu's representation of the song~

Ive only listened to it on her official website.... It sounds purdy!

I love her voice, but Ill downlod it later.

[LacusClyne]

no wonder she sings a cover of ayu. she's under avex too. according to this(quote from her website link on the first page), she's from a singing competition in China. avex japan loved her voice so much and signed her up. angela is VERY happy to be under the same company as ayu.
this pv's(cover of End roll) director 武藤真志 had directed pv for Namie, Mika, Boa, ayu and many more. avex even got ayu's nail artist 三浦加納子 to do angela's nail art!
so far, angela seem to me as another ayu fan. YAY! glad to know there's another ayu fan out there!

[extepan]

thanks for the info
i have never heard of angel an. to be is a beautiful song, she made a good choice to cover

[Endlessoul]

Angela An is the champion in the Chinese TV show Super Girls in 2004 which is to select singers from girls like American Idol or sumthing. She's kinda weak in my opinion. But the song is okay.

[SheFliesHigher]

I don't really like how Chinese sounds in general, but Angela's cover of To Be sounds nice.

[PrincessAyu]

It sounds really interesting ^_^ better than Ayu;s version, heard it too much now.

[Delirium-Zer0]

Waah! I think it's really nice!! Loyal to the original (I think... i dunno chinese), but still a new feel

Why can't some people do this sort of thing for my A TRIBUTE album... *sad face*

[norain]

I'm surprised about this, she's a fan of ayumi! That makes it all for the better, to hear an ayumi song from years back in another langauge is prettty cool

[Joel]

Whats the song's title in 'english letters'
