not really. He didn't age, he deaged. He still matured over time. |

2005/early 2006 was probably her best era 'vocally' from an aural aesthetic standpoint despite still singing through her nose and all that. The vocal damage doesn't help either. It was probably a combination of drinking all the time, singing the 'wrong way', and some other things which led to a quick deterioration in late 2006-2007ish. She never really did anything about it until that situation in 2008 or 2009 where she basically screwed up You were... and evolution. And then AT10 was amazing. If only she started doing this earlier on in her career... BTW, she still does sing through her nose every so often, but only for certain tracks like poker face, hahahaha.

I know nothing about proper singing techniques, but for me it's very obvious it was just a natural change due to her growing up. And maybe a little bit the result of her constant singing training in the meanwhile. I really find her early way of singing adorable and charming, and I think she had more power in her voice at that time too. But it's kind of normal, she just has started. Even Mariah Carey can't really sing the same way as before right now, it's bound to happen if one keeps on singing day after day.
I love her current way of singing, and I find her discography very interesting because of this gradual changing on her voice as well. I mean, it's so fascinating when you listen to her albums one after another, and can actually pinpoint her vocal evolution! Isn't it more interesting than a voice that's always the same through the years? |

^ and like Honey, which was basically written with that voice in mind, basically. Imagine if she sang that the same way she does in You were... lol.
Also, on a related note, I don't think anybody here is disputing the fact that her voice would naturally or otherwise mature/deteriorate with age (as some people have snarkily been implying). The discussion has always been about whether people like the way she sounds now. Some people do, some people don't. That said, even voice 'maturation' can happen in many different ways. I think hiro from SPEED is a good example of a singer whose voice has grown better after maturing. |

And of course there are some people bound to dislike her current way of singing. Just like a lot of people don't like her voice in early albums and theyr'e totally entitled to do so (and I'll never understand them, but whateverXD). |

You were... is perfect the way it is. One of my favorite winter songs by far. She sounds so powerful in it. I dispise HONEY....

I would really like to know what would a HONEY-with-normal-voice sound like ...

They should just rearrange HONEY to be a heavy rock track or make a version called HONEY ~bittersweet~ that will be done at concerts. Kind of like how I want Ayu to perform Ladies Night ~another night~ at concerts only since her usual performances are all the cutesy ones.

Ahh yes. Ladies Night ~another night~ is one of the very few Ayu remixes (sans AOV) that I actually like. It's amazing.

I always wished the version from the album was the Ladies Night ~another night~ one and the version from the single was the regular one, the another night version is so much better than the original imo

I thought she did that for AT2005. She sang the beginning part with the baby voice, laughed a little and went back to her normal voice. At least what's normal for her back then
