ayu's twitter/weibo thread ~part 25~

[Pieces_of_SEVEN]

Yeah, I dislike the NaNaNa rap also....lol

[happiholic★]

+1 for the NaNaNa rap hate. Its so... basic. I mean, I know that Timmy is no rapper, but what was Ayu smoking when she approved this? I think she was just overly excited to have him on the album.

[Minttulatte]

Yes for more NaNaNa kind of songs! *__*

[BlackSilence]

"Listen to my voice, you don't have a choice" lol that line in NaNaNa is priceless because so many people don't like him in that song xD I personally think he sounds ridiculously isexy in an ironical kind of way xD I wouldn't mind an other song like that, i thought the dark sound/melody was really good, they should have done 2 versions of it one with Timmy's rap one without

^ It's not timmy I dislike.. it's the rap.

Someone else cold of done it and it would of still been bad...
The overall song was okay, but that rap man...

[AyuWorld]

Ditto! I enjoy Timmy's composing overall, but the rap...

[kagami]

I always thought the rap was supposed to sounds stupid and be kinda ironic...

[TeamAyu2004]

I think it's supposed to be as simple as possible because it is for japanese audiences...
Me thinks it was written by ayumi??

[happiholic★]

Its just Timmy's rapping skills, or lack thereof, that ruin it. If Ayu had picked someone else to do it who had skill in that area it could have been good, I think.

[TeamAyu2004]

^ I dont think so... timmy has no rapping skills, but its because of the simple english... its just not a good rap.

[happiholic★]

The lyrics aren't that bad to me, besides the double negative of "you don't have no choice" so I could see someone else pulling it off. Kuu's Engrish rapping is good in Lay Down.

[TeamAyu2004]

^ She doesn't rap in Lay Down... are you sure you have the right song?

Besides, you cant really compare the two songs. An English person speaking in simple english is going to sound bad compared to a japanese person speaking in simple english.

[happiholic★]

^The verses are in a rap/sing song voice. Its not quite singing like Ai no Uta.

Anyway, I said that if Ayu had chosen a better person it would have sounded better. So, perhaps a Japanese person would have been the better choice. I was in no way comparing the songs in any respect besides rapping skills.

[TeamAyu2004]

^ okay

I just dont agree.. it happens. :p

[emi♡]

I thought the rap was supposed to be basic like that Which is why I don't care about it. It has an older rap jpop feel to it for me. Or at least, it reminds me of some older songs that have basic raps in them I guess.

I don't feel it would have been better or worse with someone else.

I can live without it. I don't need anyone in ayu's songs except ayu.

[happiholic★]

Well, my opinion is based on what I don't like about the rap. For me, its simply Timmy's voice/style of rapping. Personally, I think that if perhaps someone else had done it the rap wouldn't get on my nerves as much.

If someone doesn't like it because they just want Ayu on the track then it won't matter who raps it at all.

If someone doesn't like it because of the lyrics being too Engrish or basic then that's due to Ayu's writing and not Timmy's skill/voice.

[pommy48]

I don't really mind the rap, but when I pair up Timmy's look and the voice, I can't help but laugh out loud.

[Zeke.]

I just can't get over the fact that it sounds like a song for a gay porn star.
