i'm pretty sure ayu has lip synched before and thats totally fine. i mean sometimes you get a little exhausted from maybe intense dancing or if your sick/throat problems w/e. cuz even so you still gotta leave a smile on your face.

I don't think she lip synchs. I highly doubt she does. If she ever did (or does), I wouldn't have guessed. She's a good singer, and any artist that lip-synchs is probably too lazy or afraid they will screw up, so they play the original track and mouth the words. I remember something about a singer in America singing, and she was caught on TV lip singing (Ashlee Simpson?). So, say Ayu was in a concert singing A Song For XX and then the next song she knew to sing was, I don't know, Greatful days. Say she sang A Song For XX, and the baned accidently played Dearest and there she goes singing Greatful days. She obviously doesn't lip synch because she knows what she's doing. Just look at the clip of her forgetting the words to Voyage. At least she's honest about it unlike some singers I could think of.

To be honest, to me, I feel that when Ayu sings live, it's almost exactly the same as her voice on the CDs and original tracks.

However some other artists (and mainly american artists) when I see/hear them sing live it's nowhere near their voices on their cds, so credits to Ayu.

I don't think Ayu lip syncs but I wouldn't dislike her if she did. I've seen performances where they play the track behind but she wouldn't lip sync to it, she'd actually sing to it and you can even hear her actual voice as well =D

Yeah, sometimes the backing track contains her background vocal, and this seems to confuse people.

In our karaoke contest some people sang to instrumental versions that had bg vocals. The existence of those bg vocals did not mean that they were lip syncing.

Ugh, why are people so blind? There are worse things in the world than lip-sinking. And yes, Ayu has done it before. And just because a track doesn't sound 100% like a CD track, doesn't mean she's not lip-sinking. Some artists record "stage" versions of the song...they edit the singing, just usually not as much as the actual CD version. Sometimes they use performances from the past that weren't lip-sinked. Anyway, I don't think she lip-sinks all the time, but to say she has NEVER done that is being naive and a stupid fanboy who refuses to see the truth.

But I dont think u can use the assume/think words to comment on something that u cant even prove.
This question will have no absolute ans at all until ayu came to speak for herself.
U shouldnt have comment on she have done it cos u dont even know it yourself. Unless your telling me u have seen her LIVE performing 10 feet infront of you. Even if u did I dont think u would even notice if she have done it pretty well.
Conclusion : This question is stupid as we'll come with no absolute ans and only replies from people who think that they're so smart, they have seen everything but cant even provide a SOLID prove...
No hard feeling but I'm really tired of all these questions where there'll be no absolute ans. And everyone just use the assume/think word. It'll affect ayu in one way or another so please stop it!
We're just acting like those stupid medias with fake reports!

All of you who said ayu have lip sync, can you prove it please? Don't tell me every artist has to lip sync at least once, who told you that? Are you the one in charge of playing the lip-sync audio during their performances? If not, sorry you don't know crap about what you're claiming.

I don't really like it when people are trying to sounds like they are pro in this area and say stuff like "yeah, they all do that....", "yeah, ayu did that for a few times", if you don't know for sure, don't sound so sure.

I agree. If Ayu lip synchs, then she is the best lip syncher of all time - and this is coming from someone who has seen her live. You usually can tell pretty easily when someone lip synchs.

There have been a couple of times when she has lip synched, but never for a whole song and the only times that she has that I know of, is because of some computerized effect that is on the album. Like at the end of I Am, the last couple of lines have a computer effect on her voice that she can't duplicate live, so she did lip synch that part of the song, but only because it was necassary.

Well, sometime, it's quite obvious. Ayu probably NEVER lip synch for a TV show or for an award show, which is awesome. But I think she have lip synch a few times (meaning 2 or 3) in her concert. Try "Greatful days" from A MUSEUM or "ANGEL'S SONG" from ARENA TOUR 2003-2004.

I to dislike when people try to sound like pros. Exemple, when "STEP you" came out, a lot of people said the song has very this, and the sound very that, and the whatsoever effects was this and that, and so on... But I think those 2 performances was quite obvious. She most likely to lip synch after a big opening of a concert. The next song, she usually lip synchs to catch her breathe.

That is what I think. Maybe, she really hasn't ever lip synchs. Only Ayu knows.

That's because AVEX will sometimes dub over the original tracks before releasing them on DVD, but Ayu wasn't actually lip synching durring the concert. If you've seen the live TV broadcasts that were done on Sky Perfect TV of some of her concerts, you will hear that Avex went over Ayu original voice in a couple of her songs. (her voice wasn't THAT bad though, I think they could have left it alone in those couple of songs.)

damn, it's like people who argue she does, WANT her to lipsynch O_o

I don't see why it's so important, as long as you all enjoy her music, who cares.

OK there are a few examples. Personally I think the thing she did in Korean was completely lip-synched. M sounded amazing, but it also sounded exactly like when I saw her live in CDL. And Boys & Girls was also amazing in Korea, but every other performance of it in the past few years has been far from nice sounding. She's been singing some older songs really, really well (Teddy Bear during Arena Tour)...but if she could still sing with the power that she used to, why is she bothering recording songs like she is now, with vocals that are fairly poor compared to how she used to sound?

Well some people just sound better live in general than they do on CD. Take Maki Goto for example, I think her live voice sounds much better than her CD voice. And the same with Ayu, I've always preferred her voice live than on her CDs.

edited to add: Sorry! I should have put all 3 of these replies into one long post.

Namie's got skills though and you can tell she sings live since her voice will fluctuate when she jumps up and down or does a sudden move that changes her breathing.

Overall I don't particularly care who does it, just saying that they do, I know that they can and will sing well on a good day. Now if they're a talentless tramp like some other 'artists' (parishiltonwtf) then I'm somewhat bugged.
