Well I thought seeing as we have a Utada Hikaru thread, we should also have a Ayumi Hamasaki one.

She is the Best Selling Female & Solo Japanese Artist in history.

3 of her music videos are on the list of Most Expensive Music Videos

Ayumi Hamasaki has released 8 full-length studio albums, 1 mini-album, and 2 compilation albums

Here are a couple of her songs:

She is cool woot

i love thios video of her

89tmI1lA4c4

I havez teh English translation of it:


I like glittering things and pretty things
As much as before
But being cool and being tough
Have become more important lately

You see? Times have changed so much
But why do I still hear such words as
"Tears are women's weapons"?

We don't cry easily
We are not always coquettish
We are not dolls
Who are only dressed-up

We have our weak sides
We are not always smiling
Don't forget
That we don't exist to be convenient for you

Though it's certain
I have a pain in my chest on some nights

It might be true
The more one experiences sufferings
The more he can be tender and strong

oooh jumpy thats cool!

i likes the lyrics

"Ami Suzuki (鈴木 亜美 Suzuki Ami, born February 9, 1982) is a female singer and songwriter from Zama, Kanagawa Prefecture, Japan.

Suzuki was one of the most popular female singers between 1998 and 2000 and the known rival of Ayumi Hamasaki, but in 2000 after legal problems with her management company, she was dropped from her label and fell from popularity"

"Namie Amuro (安室 奈美恵, Amuro Namie?, born September 20, 1977) is a Japanese pop singer of Ryukyuan ancestry. In the Japanese press she was referred to as the "Queen of J-pop" before Ayumi Hamasaki eclipsed her popularity in the mainstream pop scene."


Ayumi Hamasaki is so cool

Sorry, as I told you before, she is not the "Best Selling Female & Solo Japanese Artist in history."

What she is is "The top selling solo and female artist and the fourth top selling Japanese artist in the history of Japan."

Anata wa wakarimasu ka.....

Well, I just quoted what wikipedia and a couple of other websites said. srug

Who are the first three?

Also "in history" and "in the history of Japan" are to be treated equally when talking about Japanese people.

She is very pretty and talented.

Agreed.

"Guilty is the ninth studio album (tenth overall) by Japanese pop singer-songwriter Ayumi Hamasaki, released by Avex Trax on January 1, 2008 in Japan.

A strong point of the album is that all of the emotions of the different songs are clearly displayed and Ayumi went through a lot recording this album.

She separated from her boyfriend of 7 years; a very close friend of hers passed away; and she even announced that she had lost hearing in her left ear but will continue making music until it takes away her right ear."
So sadz. crytissue
