No, they don't have many similarities other than they are both female, and both sing ^_~
BoA is more laid back R&B stuff imo, nothing like Ayu's music. My faves are: Hal, move, Malice Mizer, psydoll, and the mad capsule markets. |

Move are also on Avex, and are sort of Euro-techno in style.
Think '2 unlimited', only 1,0000000 x better! Malice Mizer are dark J-rock, almost boardering on Goth. Gackt used to be a member I think. They also have a member named 'Mana' whose level of fashion is several steps beyond anyone else in the world imo. Psydoll (www.psydoll.com) are an industrial band with anime inspired vocals. They are propably my fave band from Japan after ayu. Also their singer Nekoi is one of the most friendly people you could ever hope to meet. Mad capsule markets are, I would say the biggest Japanese band in the UK. They mix metal (which I don't normally like) with electronics. They are basically a Japanese Atari teenage riot, but slightly more melodic ^_~ Try and get their latest live album, called '020120' and listen to the song 'Good Girl' for a wicked introduction to them ^_^ |

I remember the first time I heard Dream was Night of Fire sometime in early 2001....I tried forever to find the vid, but finally did a year later, but I think 3 was best...with 9, they're more like Morning Musume....

I'll have to choose "other" because despite the fact that the diva of the new school Mika Nakashima has had 2 #1 albums this year, she's not an option

move, EURO-TECHNO?????
More like laidback eurobeat with a touch of the 70s, 80s and 90s cheesier genres. |

No - I think you will find a lot of their songs are very euro-techno in style.
Notice I mentioned '2 unlimited', and in the uk in the early 90's that genre of music was known as euro-techno. Look at the similarities with 'bands' such as Cappella, masterboy, magic affair etc. The music is basically a female singer with a melodic, pretty voice, accompanied by a rapper with fast electronic dance music. I think that sums up Move pretty well personally. Sure, some of Move's tunes are slower, but that's not really what they're known for is it? The fact is a sound that is associated with a particular genre, may be called something else as the years go on. Trance for example has nothing to do with what it was originally about, and sounds totally different, yet it is still called trance. Move sound like lots of early euro-techno acts, so it's an apt description really. |

The only thing they really have in common with the acts you mentioned is that they have a singer and a rapper
They doesn't sound much like any of them, and their sound changes too much from single to single, "Romancing train" was excellent where as "Future breeze" was terrible. |

Well then, either 1. you are deaf. or 2.you simply don't know what you are talking about.
I was a music journalist for a international dance magazine in the early 90's, and had to write numourous articles on the whole euro explosion. I think this makes me slightly more qualified than you. So unless you have something constructive to say..... |

Oooh, oooh, do I sense some highbrow tendencies there?

oO There are others? J/K
My second favorite is Hisakawa, Aya. Sure Aya is a voice actress and well known for her roles as Devil Hunter Yohko and Skuld from Aa Megami-sama. She's also an accomplished vocalist. That aside there's plenty more Ayu CDs to get.

I didn't really want to get into a argument here, but as you insist... Of course people are allowed to have different opinions - I am a firm believer in that. BUT! what you said has nothing to do with opinion!!!! If you had said 'Move are rubbish', or 'Move' are great' that *would* be an opinion and there would be no problem. As it stands, Move sound VERY euro-techno in style, and I say this as fact, not opinion. If you seriously think that the style of music a particular band belongs to is down to personal opinion, then I could say Michael Jackson makes wicked 300bpm industrial-speedcore, and be right by your reasoning??? |
