Ayumi Hamasaki Forget Lyrics


Niken asked me about my favorite Japanese singer. She's the one. In this video, she forgets the lyric of her song, and caught in a momentary panic. But after the first verse she screams, "Gomennnn..." (Sorry), which exactly shows one thing or two about her. One, she didn't lipsynced her songs as often done by 'world-class artists' such as Britney Spears. And two, she asks for audience's apologies afterwards which means that she was dedicated to gave her best performance to her fans (unlike that, again, Britney Spears 2007 VMA performance which not only embarassing herself but also her peers and fans alike. I don't like her at all, but i too, felt ashamed when i saw her said performance). Be as it may, my favorite album from her is her first album that even though her voice hasn't fully developed yet, her songs felt true and sincere. Sadly, none of her subsequent albums had the same impact as her first. Oh, there were one or two more than decent songs in her albums, but none like the first, which i really loved in its entirety.
