I first heard her back in the Kingdom Hearts/ Simple and Clean days and of course I thought she'd be a white chick!! I honestly was somewhat shocked when I found out she was from Japan....
But this kinda set me up in a way cause I was like..Wow....Japanese people have amazing voices....but then I started seeing Hikki get constantly compared to Ayumi Hamasaki on the forums...and I thought to myself...."Ok I gotta give this big competitor a listen" and so imagine my surprise when I start up "We Wish" and hear Ayu's voice...Both my little sister and I were like "what the?! She sounds like a squirrel!!" We couldn't believe she was for real! Of course, I quickly realized that this is the common sound of Japanese music and Utada's voice really has an American sound to it (being she was born and partly raised in New York probably)..Also I hope I didn't offend any Ayu fans out there..That was just my ignorant 16 year old opinion at the time..and I became an Ayu fan shortly after!! |
