Asian acts that you have lost interest in ?

[NintendoHTF1242]

Wow, I can't even think of an artist I'm losing interest in xDD Is that bad? xD

[Picaflor 7/4]

so much utada hate. she will always be my #1 favorite artist. haha

orange range - years ago i liked them but now, not really
uverworld - just happen to not listen to their music any more
alice nine. - not that i was ever a big fan of them
hyde/rainbow
yuna ito

[noisy_harmony]

^ I think it's only because of that looooooong break from japanese releases.

Ai Otsuka - maybe I've never been a huge fan, but I'm waiting for single which will kick my ass.

[everlastingRAINBOW]

Pretty much all asian music except Namie and Ayu xD

[miroro]

Ai Otsuka: used to love heer! now i can't listen to her, i only like planetarium x_x
NEWS: aw, they were my favourite band, now i find them so boooring
mika nakashima: since orion she hasn't released nothing that wowed me

you took the words from my mouth.

I add:

KUmi: she's too repeatitive and the sexy cougar style over bored me.

Like everything but Namie Amuro.

I think the other bands in the talent agency might probably bad mouth about them doing so cos it's really a big slap in the face

I frankly don't mind if an artiste lip synch should the song in question's a fast paced dance no. or if he/she was ill on that day

but to do that for EVERY single performance & from the start to the end of your concerts ?

demented much ?

I was really shocked, I mean considering that I've never seen anyone lip-sync Kouhaku and it's not like everyone else sounds perfect.

ot: I also lost interest in Aya Ueto and OLIVIA (lack of new material?) and I think I am slowly loosing interest in Maaya Sakamoto too.

Wow I lost my interest in f(x) and 2PM for the same reasons. I think f(x) is so boring, and I think there isn't a bond in the group. Anyway, since Jae was "quicked out" of 2PM I totally loose my interest but I listened their latest album and I came to the conclusion that the songs of Jae era were better. I think they lost a piece of their identity not only visual but musical and as a group. -_-'

[emi♡]

I don't really lose interest in artists...I lose interest in genres. My listening goes through phases...so one month I may want dancey music, and then I want like jazz or something...so it just depends.

I guess that means I stop listening to certain people...but...I never really lose interest. I mean, say Ayu, she hasn't impressed me at all since god knows when, but I still love and am very interested in everything she does.

I could say the same for many more people...some people's lack of releases lead me to listen to them less, since I already listened to all their old stuff or whatever.


Just gonna say, there are a lot of dumb assumptions in this thread. It's sad that people refuse to understand anything they dont want to.

If they "loved" her music they would have gotten used to her release patterns

I got used to it

[primavera♥]

^ ha. yeah im used ot it now. its just the only thing keeping me from regretting buying TITO is that it still supports her (but if im gonna buy that then i should buy many otehr r&b albums that really are better or the same). . .

i acutally LOVED Alice Nine. . .but they just became what every other extremely talented and awesome vkei/oshare-kei band has become who goes major T.T. decent but hardly as unique as before. i guess to sell well against boy bands and such u do have to change a lot

[Ayuminist23]

I wouldn't say that I lose interest in an artist, but I will say that Hikaru Utada and BoA are not making great music like the used to.

I liked Hikaru's "EXODUS" album. But not her 2nd American one. Her single, "Come Back to Me" was it. The ONLY song I liked.

BoA...it has happened since the Made in Twenty album; I like the one or two singles she releases, but then the rest of the album sucks so I just don't buy her albums anymore. I did buy her Best Album and her American album though.

And Kumi Koda only had ONE album that made me go crazy and that was "Grow into One". She has had maybe six more songs since then that I have liked. Her best being "TABOO".

But eventhough I see the three artists above as declining, I will still follow them and welcome new singles and albums. I just won't be buying them.

[amorphose]

Koda Kumi - she sold out big time, imo
Namie Amuro - she lost me for PLAY, but i really like PAST < FUTURE so i'm paying attention again
Ai Otsuka - i just haven't gotten into any of her releases since LOVE PiECE
Mika Nakashima - she got so boring

yeah & the thing's that it got to a point where things got perfect , way too perfect which I began to question them

artistes like ayaka , Ken Hirai & Kobukuro are the really rare few that they sound the same if not even better live when you compare their vocals in a CD live

Other Johnny's I watched their live performances of in concerts & shows , they sometimes lip synch but not extensively

I don't care if you sound different on CD & live but to do that all the time , it's taking credibility away from you as an artiste

I rather go & watch a mime perform than this

[terra]

Ai Otsuka Like everyone else, everything she released crumbled down on LOVE LETTER. She's not 'crazy' as usual...for me she's like 'sick', like being someone else now.

Utada Hikaru Though her amazing vocal, she takes a loooooooooooong time to release and between releases I got bored. HEART STATION was so so.

Koda Kumi UNIVERSE is a big disappointment imo. They like making 2-3 great song and mash it up with some fillers to make an album.

alan It's not that I lost interest in her totally, but avex should stop toying with her style (my life). I love her Voice of Earth Era more.

BoA The last single I really appreciated was Eien. IDENTITY was a flop for me, it's not her at all.

Yuna Ito I'm waiting for her new material, DREAM is a disappointment and Let It Go is so so, I even like Happy Days better.
