And obviously, there are people out there other than us who actually have enjoyed her vocals. For me, it's a matter on how those vocals were used. They worked for me on "SEASONS" and perhaps for a couple of her other songs but that's about it.J-Canuckhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09551828383307840403noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2501670448657416824.post-65866921922859121152015-01-15T09:23:49.462-05:002015-01-15T09:23:49.462-05:00Hi, J-Canuck,
A couple of months ago I concluded ...Hi, J-Canuck,<br /><br />A couple of months ago I concluded that nobody on Kayo Kyoku Plus was an Ayumi Hamasaki fan as, like you noted, the blog didn’t have any proper article about her before this one.<br /><br />I’m also not a fan of Ayumi Hamasaki, and I must confess that I tried to like her two or three times in the past, with no success. That said, I like a few of her songs, especially some of her late 90s hits, such as “Vogue”, “Trauma”, “Boys & Girls”, and the more recent “Feel The Love” (this one is more a guilty pleasure than anything).<br /><br />As for “SEASONS”, I remember listening to it in some of her concerts, probably the ones from 2000 and 2001, if I’m not mistaken. It never really stood out, as I’m not a big fan of this type of ballad.<br /><br />My problem with Ayumi Hamasaki, though, is purely Ayumi Hamasaki. In other words, I don’t like her ultra nasal voice at all, and that’s coming from an aidoru fan. Really, I don’t understand how she became such a sensation... maybe her songwriting skills, her fashion sense, and even the music, which was nice sometimes, helped her career, but her voice is a major let down to me.Marcos V.https://www.blogger.com/profile/09531398685057099974noreply@blogger.com
