hmm...his pronounciation of the words are totally weird to me...but it's definitely an interesting cover. Thanks for the news.
edit: I actually like his Depend on Me version better than his Japanese cover.

Very interesting. Thanks for telling, never heard of him before. o_O
Who is he?

I mean I've read the biography section, but his name still hasn't ring a bell. ~_~;


oh, and I kinda like his cover (Japanese one).

I was thinking exactly the same thing

EDIT: Ok, she's mentioned with the STEP you Mix as well as Avex

Anyways he's got talent and the English version is really good.

Wow, this is the second time in a month I've seen news of an American (or native English speaker) doing a re-make of an Ayu song...(lol See Ayu - people outside of Asia do love your music!)

I must admit - I do love his arrangement of "Depend on You". And I like the English version, too!! =)

And his Japanese probably sounds weird because he's probably not a native speaker of it, hence he doesn't have the accent of it and all...I think he sounds decent, actually. ^^

edit: He's British, not American. Haha. And his STEP you remix is interesting...there's not too much of him in it, though. :-/

Is this inferring that he wrote Depend on you because that's totally not cool if it is ;/ his cover is good though
