Props to Utada, Mika Nakashima, Shiina Ringo, and Ayumi Hamasaki! Some of my favoritest on the list together. >.< Yay!

It's sad though, because I can think of some female singers who aren't super famous but have really nice voices. I mean, there's Kokia, who I don't know how well known she is but she has such a nice voice.

Ayumi definitely deserved to be on that list.

that was my thought too actually!! I absolutelly adore her vocals. But she's very underated so....

[Party_King]

PLEASE WHAT!?

don't like their voice that much... there're enough better artists (voice sounding)

I'm missing BENI.

Who has like the best vocals ever.

[Surreal17]

I wish KOKIA would have made in the list.She has a really impressive and emotional voice. Glad for Ayu~

[Ayus angel]

i'm not hating on namie but ayu has a better voice

[AyuWorld]

Happy Ayu! And satisfied with Juju and Hikki too!

[BlackSilence]

i'm really glad that Ayu did make it in there cuz hr vocals now are not bad at all and she sounds lovelly in most songs. However, i realy went ">_O" with quite a lot of the names there.. Girls like Misia (even tho her stuff is not my cup of tea because i'm not a big ballad person), Kokia....BENI (i'm not even into her music but i checked a few songs and her vocals are really lovelly). I also for some reason really like Noriko Sakai's voice, it's just i dunno so femminine and so um japanese?lol

[DonkeyKongRemix]

Yeah, also, all of the singers from the FictionJunction project and Kalafina have beautiful voices. But, they aren't solo artists. (does that make a difference?)

But, Kokia! She definitely qualifies!! She has such magnificent control over her voice.

[Kazeyomi]

ayaka got a beautiful voice, but sometimes she tries too much imho.
KOKIA's voice it's outstanding though I love how she can sing lovely peaceful songs and powerful songs without losing control of her voice. Too bad is so underrated. She's so talented :/

Btw, congrats to Ayu according to the drama here, I expected she were dramatically low ranked lol. But #15 it's really good

This!
seriously, I like most of Namie's music but honestly her voice is not that good.
She must be very popular in these days to be in this list
I think Ayu did a better work through the years, she worked hard and she improved a lot

[TITANIC]

Ayaka and Yuna Ito should have been in the list

[Delirium-Zer0]

Actually I think Namie deserves to be on there. Ever since about 10 years ago her voice has steadily improved, and by the time "Tempest" came out I was like "holy crap Namie when did you learn to sing?!?!?" XD

I do think ayaka should be on here, I'd have to see her sales but I would have thought she was popular enough to make a ranking like this. That said, her voice is definitely more western styled and this list does seem to focus on vocalists with more Japanese singing styles. More appealing to Japanese audiences, I'd imagine.

Nothing surprising about Miwa Yoshida being number one at all. Her voice has always been just lovely.

[Minttulatte]

I think Kuu and Ayu should be higher on the list, but oh well, no can do.

[yoshino]

I always think Ayu's voice is better than Namie's. =)

[Andrenekoi]

You must be a fan to believe either Namie or Ayu or Koda or (live) Utada have a wonderful singing voice. xD

Utada Hikaru had a great live voice during Utada United. Sadly, her voice started to sound damaged after that... >.>

(Even though my favorite album of hers came after that concert )

She sounds Ok for half of it, but her voice goes totally downhill during Kremlin Dusk to never recover... That live of Kremlin Dusk is possibly the worst vocal performance I ever saw by a profissional singer. And I say that considering I follow Ayu and Britney! Haha!

[tinka69]

No ayaka...no utada...but Namie and Ayu are there? Yeah, there's something going on here haha.

[pimenta]

^ Utada is in 4th place...

True. That Kremlin Dusk performance started ok, but the end of it is awful imo

I don't really like Utada's vocals... It isn't bad on studio, but, I don't know, there's something about her vocals that I don't find pleasant... But that's me, I know many people love her vocals, so I'm not contesting her in this ranking.


I love Namie's current vocals. Her vocals from her peak were kind of awful, but now a days her vocals are great!
