Any Ayumi Hamasaki fans on here? No? Well, you guys should check out this picspam anyway, because it took me forever to do it. :'D 2 for the price of 1, it's for STEPyou and marionette, two of my favorite music videos/songs by her. STEPyou was one of the first JPop songs that I loved back when I first got into the fandom (probably even before I really knew Johnny's!) and then I was addicted to marionette for a while when it first came out. ^^ Both are for the 13th challenge @ [livejournal.com profile] picspammy, since I've never picspammed a music video before. :)

(And then my name's WOMEN is one that I just did to add, because I forgot about it before. :'D)
































































Please don't use any of these to make graphics, since like I said before, it took me forever to make this pretty. :'D

nhi

edit://one more picspam, eheheh. ^^;;

I love, love, love STEPyou! It's one of my all time Ayumi favorites. And her music videos are always so epic, glad that someone finally captured her brilliance!

STEPyou is the first ever song of hers that I really loved, so it holds a special place in my heart. :)

They are! And thanks, I fell in love with them when I watched them again one day. XD;;

Ayu has these really interesting PVs! I've never seen either of these before, but i'm going to because of your picspam :)

Fan of 5/6 years, here. :D I'm always karaoke-ing all of her songs STEP you, and just recently started to learn the lyrics to Marionette. <3

I wish there was a karaoke place near me~ >: What songs of hers do you like?

Me too. @.@ There's nothing where I live, I just sing along with the instrumentals. XD;

Dang, there's a question. Probably a dangerous one to ask me. Because, really, it's near impossible to narrow it down to, like, a painless list. ._.' Buuut, in no special order, songs that have either touched my heart or are just too damn amazing to deny (i'll try to remember the cOrReCt way to write them XD;): SURREAL♥, Together When...♥♥♥, alterna♥♥, POWDER SNOW, JEWEL♥♥, 1 LOVE♥, YOU, A Song For XX, Fairyland, NEVER EVER♥, Because of You, INSPIRE♥, Ourselves♥, Endless Sorrow, About You♥, HONEY, GAME, STEP You♥♥, evolution, Pride, Will♥♥, Heaven, forgiveness, Dearest, Who..., July 1st, HANABI, Hanabi ~Episode II~, Free & Easy, decision, BLUE BIRD, Duty, RAINBOW♥, Appears, Rainy Day, To Be, GREEN♥, Mirrorcle World♥♥♥, Mirror♥, Marionette -prelude-/Marionette, GUILTY, Talkin' 2 Myself, P.S. II, M, Not Yet, Moments, Is This LOVE, Fated, WHATEVER♥, Part Of Me♥, monocrome, FLY HIGH, Trauma, Boys & Girls, UNITE!, I am...♥, Bold & Delicious, Rule, CAROLS.

And I've come to really love (don't) Leave Me Alone, even though it's not exactly like anything else I listen to. XP~

What was that. Top 30? *too lazy to count.* XD ....... see. See why it's bad for me to try and answer that question. DX That woman, just has too much awesome going on in the music department to make picking and choosing easy. :X It'd probably be less trouble to pick my favorite PVs of hers. X3; Which, then; ourselves, GAME, forgiveness, alterna, About You, Ladies Night, M, JEWEL, 1 LOVE, and RAINBOW. ♥♥♥ Rank as top favorites. Though, skdjfd. I love most of her PVs, too. ._.

As a side node, anyway, for a while some time back, I was saying that SURREAL and JEWEL were my ~ultimate favorite~ Ayu songs--purely because of the sweet lyrics. ♥ (lskjfds, another thing I just friggin' love about her. she's a genius when it comes to words.)

Ahh. Talk of Ayu reminds me that I need to go find out what's up with her latest single. XD; ~been lurking in the forums again lately~

and, wow. talk about tl;dr/dc/stfunow. 8D;;

... whoa. ._.

Top 60, btw. Um. I flailed at the Heaven and CAROLS mentions, because I love those two. ♥ No my name's WOMAN? >: ... I should have done a picspam for that one, too. Damn. DX

BUT. I shall try and check out all of the ♥ ones first. Even though there's about a billion of them. D':

I apologize for making you pick your favorites. m(_ _)m And those are a lot of PV's. D: But I found somewhere to download them. ^^ (I really love some of her lyrics! :'D)

Wasn't it the Sunset one with the not-so-fabulous covers? ._. Or is there another new one?

Your flail-age was cute. :)

My Name's WOMEN (engrish fail rabu♥), is an excellent track. One I hadn't appreciated much when it first came out, but seeing her live performance of the song changed that. YABAI. ♥ SM Queen Ayu = so srsly hawtt.

LMAO, did you count for me!? X3 slkdfsd. Top 60, then. O_o Right on the mark? Sorry, it was a lot!! D: BUT, they're all great songs, I promise! X3;; She had Sunrise/Sunset ~LOVE is ALL~ come out a while ago (yeah, the covers were kinda.. she looked like some Hawaiin Barbie. XD), and it looks like You were.../BALLAD is the next release, coming out this December, two days after mah birfday. 83

I like to think of it as the ultimate girl-power song. :'D Partially because I don't know of any other GIRLSROCKBOYSDONT type of songs, so. And am currently capping the PV. XP

XD Yeah, I was curious. And you were way off, lol, but exactly 60. :) It's okay! More to listen to, especially since I only listen to a few songs of hers. XD;; Yeah, that's the one! (Hawaiian Barbie! Great way to put it. I just think... her face looked weird. :/) And I just saw that at her website. What a nice birthday/early Christmas present, ne? :]

Captcha: Amin hairnet 8D

I only like one line of that entire song, tho, tbh. XD

»ちょっと胸が痛むような夜も確かにあるけど«

<3 But the PV was cool. She reminded me of J-lo for some reason. o.O ALSO, when it came out, this girl who was like an extra in the PV.. randomly appeared at the Ayumi-hamasaki.org (now .net) forums... just to let us know. XDD It was.. weird. But kind of neat.

And this is me (obviously), just anon b/c. I'm at a public comp, and am paranoid about inputting my username/pw here. ._. andsomedudekeepslookingatmymonitorwtfomggoaway

Hahah, ONLY HALF OFF! That's not so way off. Is it? 8D keke~ I realized I failed to list some other favorites, when I thought about it more. </3 Even in the PV section, but ehh I'll spare you the annoying. ;o Un~~ :3 I remember once a few years ago when Otsuka Ai's LOVE COOK album came out right on my b-day, I was like... all happy about it. Even if I didn't buy the album. XD;

A-what hairnet? XD

Aw, I like the message of it. :'D And why that line? :o

It is! Long though, and while the dance scenes are cool in motion, they just look weird in caps. :dead: J-Lo? o_o Hahah, nice, that must have been weird. XD

I figured, lol, but I'd be paranoid too. D: didhegoawayyet?

X3 Not too much, I guess. Aw, it's not annoying, I like music recs. XD I need new stuff to listen to~ Rofl, I think something has come out on my bday once but I can't remember. Maybe you should try to get Ayumi's single! :)

AMIN? Amino acid? Chem? IDK. XD

Hmm, it means something to me, the line. Not to sound emo or anything. XD;;

I want to say it was the glasses. idk. Haha, just a bit. Because we never heard from her again after that, which was kinda sad. XD But she gave us a bit of info about the PV behind the scenes, Ayu being all cute and bowing/apologizing when she screwed up and such. X3

:D It kept one of my usernames in the drop-down thing, I almost had a heart attack when I saw it there. DX I don't understand apple computers. *so awkward* yeahfinallyomg DX

So do I~ I feel like I'm in need of some new music myself. So if you got some, feel free to recommend anything back. :3b I might try and get it, though. <3 She never disappoints with her singles.

:dead: Ironically enough, taking chem right now.

XD I won't prod. :]

Oh! Yeah, I can see J-Lo when she has the glasses on. *o* Aw, that really is weird, then. XD But sounds cute! I watched the making of for STEPyou and she just looked so smiley in it. XD

DDDD: You could delete it though, right? :o Apple computers are so annoying, I'm glad my high school uses Windows. XD;; Huzzah!Iwouldhavebeathimupforyou

Hmmm, what do you like? Peruse my last.fm library and see if anything sticks out. :'D It'd be a great present to yourself, unless you can get someone to get it for you. :P

I almost failed that class. /)_(\

XDD It's okay, I can't really explain it. :/ Just, my poetic soul (PFFFT)~~~ demands that I love that line! :D

Keke. HEY, I see you added the caps. XDb THE GIRL I WAS TALKING ABOUT. And. adsjgsdfgs omg Shuya. ~D8

I like everything~! ♪ Just about. XD I'll give it a look! ♥
From: [identity profile] boycottbananas.livejournal.com
(I think you can be poetic. :'D) Aw, I can understand. ^^ There are lyrics that I like that people would probably be all, "Wtf?" towards. XP

Yep! It'd be prettier if the video had been the same size as the other two, and widescreen. :'D But it works. :O! I was wondering if I capped her! X3 She's pretty. :) And Shuya? ._.

XD Electropop okay? Because Perfume = my favorite.

My teacher took pity on me. X') Once you get behind, it's baaad.

(Aw, you's so sweet. :'D) ♥

It does, it looks great. :3 Haha, yeah. I think her name was, Esther? Or something. Spanish model girl. XD Heheh, you no like teh Shuya? :x

Sure! I remember them, they were cute. XD
From: [identity profile] boycottbananas.livejournal.com
(:D I try my hardest. ^^) ♥♥

Aww, thanks! :] Esther? XDDD! I want to be in a music video, that'd be awesome. :'D And more like I didn't know he was a Shuya. XP Is he an actor? Model?

:o You do? :flails: Okay, well, songs of theirs that I have loved a lot are... well I started making a list, but then I realized that it was basically their whole discography, minus a few of their earlier songs. :/ SO. My absolute favorites are: GAME (♥), edge (⊿-mix) (♥♥♥), SECRET SECRET (♥♥), I still love U, Butterfly, Take Me Take Me (♥), Electro World (♥♥♥), Computer City (♥), Perfect Star Perfect Style (♥♥), Chocolate Disco, Twinkle Snow Powdery Snow, Baby Cruising Love, Puppy Love (♥♥♥), wonder2, Negai (♥), Macaroni, SEVENTH HEAVEN, Take Off, Zero Gravity, The Best Thing, and Kiss & Music. :D

... but there's a more that you should check out. 8D;; In regards to PV's, they're not as amazingly awesome as Ayumi's, but you need to watch SECRET SECRET, which is probably one of the most popular song of theirs. I even know the dance. :'D

For other music, I really love Kalafina (the complete opposite genre of Perfume, btw), and I've been obsessed with Wheesung's latest album, Vocolate. :D
