Beyonce is unique in her way, so is Ayumi. But seriously, those things you just mentioned which also might appear in Ayu's previous PV's have seriously no freaking thing to do with Beyonce's recent videoclip. You are looking too far, mate.

But what statement did you wanna make? That artists are now copying Ayu, or what?
No seriously, I am curious and try to say this not too rude.

What your saying doesn't make sense...They do have to do with Beyonce's video clip - all these concepts are in Ayu's previous video clips as per my first comment in this thread...I'm not looking too far, I saw them the first time I saw Beyonce's video clip, it wasn't like I had watched it numerous times before noticing them.. Maybe i am just more observant than other people, like yourself, out there.

Maybe u just never watched many music videos
Really, most people wasn't even rude to u.... unless u consider disagreeing with u as being rude

^ They were pretty rude and mean, I'd be hurt too.
But I can't say it wasn't epxpected, these kind of topics "XX/Ayu copied Ayu/XX" are dangerous, some have very strong opinions.

If you see similarities, that's fine. But it is not copying. And it may be by mistake, I don't know how much Beyoncé had to do with the concept of the video. I felt she only had to approve the ideas. So blaming her I think is the worst, not saying you are doing it, just an observation.

So let's keep it cool and mature here, okay?

And I am truly sorry if my previous comment was hurtful, it was unintended.

Well excuse me, you don't have to be bitter.

Beyonce is as involved with the concept of her music videos as Ayu or Madonna are...

I never said that Ayu invented these concepts, all im saying is that there are many things in her videos that were done before other western artists did them.. This is my first topic that i have started on here, but now i am regretting doing so.

Or better yet, stop yourself from posting utter crap and starting pointless discussions. Yes a lot of things she has done were done by others and vice versa, that's the way the world goes round.

lol really not. this thread has a lot of lol actually.

Ayu and Beyonce are in two completely different places in pop music. Figuratively of course. And some of your arguments are completely ridiculous. Especially the Virgin Road one.

The explosion in Run the World lasted for a couple seconds, and was used as a Dramatic and Shock effect. In Virgin Road, it was used throughout the video, and was used as a plot device.

I just died inside.

ANYWAY - not to be too rude, but seriously start watching more music videos so you'll notice that Ayumi is NOT the only person who does things the way she does. Aren't you embarrassed by any of the "observations" you pointed out? "Oh, look. Beyonce has dancers in coloured costumes. She's copying Ayumi!" Are you kidding me? So now that Ayumi has incorporated colour into her costumes (mind you - she is NOT the first one who decided matching costumes were boring), no one else can? Lol? And this applies to every other critique you had.

If Beyonce (or anyone) had plagiarized art, there would be undeniable similarities and lawsuits would be thrown everywhere. So seriously - go on YouTube, watch some videos, expand your horizons, and remember that Ayumi, while great at her craft, is hardly the innovative God you seem to believe she is.
