Ayu , is one of the most famous female singer in Japan, and although her fame has disappeared for the past year or so, she is still known as the biggest singer in Japan. Her songs and her fashion has influenced many Japanese people (including me), and she has won many MANY music awards straight in a row for many years.

I was, if not the biggest, a HUGE fan of her... without her I wouldn't have became good friend with Akane too. I was in love with her since 1999 when she released her second album LOVEppears. The album cover was just stunning. It was even better than Christina Aguilera's Stripped (actually Xtina stole this idea of covering her breast with her hair from Ayu!!). Her photos were always charismatic, her songs were heart-moving, and she was... just perfect Japanese idol.

I dunno why I started listening to her older songs NOW... but Damn, I used to think her songs were good when I was a kid, and now as a teenager facing problems, her songs REALLY hits me hard. I guess her songs were little mature for me to listen to (when I was a fan). You know what I'm saying? It's kinda like listening to "Lucy In A Sky With Diamonds" or "Puff The Magic Dragon" as a kid and thinking that it's a song about random stuff, and later when you grow up and listening to it and realizing that it's about something else.

Well, it's not that silly though.

I really used to think I knew what Ayu was saying when she sang her songs. I thought I knew it. But now that I listen to it now, it's like
"No Takuma, you didn't have a clue what she was singing!"
Learnings from life experiences finally made me understand her songs. I'm really happy about it :)
