Aya Matsuura (Japan)

OMG!

wanna see this show too! iluv Maki Goto so much Exclamation

Hello Fumiko,

I can't hide that I'm a fresh devoted fan of Aya's work. she's so pretty and good singer now. I've seen your video clip, and I agree the song is nice. as you wrote, she's really going toward something different, her repertory is changing. we've talk about earlier, from the stock of childish (or silly, not in pejorative sense) songs from her debut, Aya is involved in more mature productions, listening the amount of hard working she done to improve her singing skills.

in your song, it's obvious that she is making a "voice" now, quite easy to recognise now. a sort of mixt between velour and colorful voice.

cool song you have pinned fumi, thx for sharing.

I like what I know from her.

Hello Fumiko,

Another amazing TV show I've found last week. It's a sort of mix talk, reportage and song show broadcast on september 2001. this one features Aya Matsuura, Maki Goto and the bouncing cuties Mini Moni girls band. all proud Hello ! Project personalities.

have a look how tall is Maki on this capture.
also, see the cute legwarmers of the Mini Moni girl.

so as said, there are some talks about "this and that", reportages too. I've made an addition in Maki Goto's topic because of she done something extraordinary. (hey Kim, I hope you'll enjoy)

Aya and Maki talking

here she goes again, shrinking her lips
adorable

i say that it is funny to see people collecting shows of the tv. not many people do that where i live in France

xkorean, c'est souvent le fait des fanclubs, c'est surtout eux qui collectionnent et puis diffusent leurs vidéos. bien souvent ils sont sous-titrés par eux même.

If you did not listen to Aya Matsuura latest album called Naked Songs, please listen! This is best Matsuura album ever! because many more steps toward jazz sound! Some songs are new versions of previous pop songs, but very different tone! Other songs are new, including she is singing one song by American jazz singer Norah Jones, I think Matsuura sings this song even better!

I received this album from YesAsia last week and played it, I like it so much! Please support Matsuura making this transition! she is now very fine jazz singer!

Hello Fumiko,

I'm with you on this claim, Aya is becoming the most beautiful japanese woman. I have a recent commercial, for a milk tea Gogo (? not sure). on one of these spots she plays golf in a pretty red dress, she's transformed on this clip, so mature in the facial expressions.

we have not your chance Fumiko, we've been so late to discover Aya. now, I have a huge bunch of her TV appearences, but all is mixed, ranging from her very first debuts to nowadays. the mix is also in my brain, because of event's assynchronicity. anyway, I love her, wondering how many people in Japan have turned crazy watching her.

Aya & Miki on an other recent TV show

Hi best chemistry! Matsuura is great entertainer! cute and funny and so fine singer! She is celebrating her Birthday with old H!P tradition, which is put face into whipped cream cake:

One friend is in another forum dedicated to Hello! Project, he has created a repository of Matsuura videos and images, more than I can collect in so many years! You will find every kind of video including concerts and movies! Here is the url: http://www.angelfire.com/poetry/rsaya/ayaya.htm

Hello Fumiko,

another treasure filled coffin you've posted here for us. I've been exploring it and I must admit it contain numerous wonderful appearences of the lovely Aya's. I think I'll take many things because I don't have them. other positive point is that I can put a name or a date on some TV shows I have but tagged unnamed. all this for the sake of Ayaya. I love this kind of devotion.

Hi best chemistry,

Perhaps you will correspond with Matt who is the creator of that Matsuura site, and you will tell him about our KnT collection of films and film reviews! and perhaps he will want to have some link to KnT in his site. Already we have one Matsuura film, yes? Sukeban deka!

good idea Fumi, we will have a look how to join this man.

I learned she wall some sort of illness with her throat Suspect

is she healthy today ?

Hello 2xgalslover,

actually it's not her throat but her jaw who is painful. once thinking this is due to intense stress with her singing career. I've not seen recent TV appearences of Aya and can't see if she meet difficulties to speak or sing really. I was watching a video from her first audiences, at 14. she had in time the same facial expression, this was obvious on our video, she strenght her jaw when she speaks. well, I guess some soft therapies based on relaxation and anti-stress program should do something for her. I'll be really sad to hear she have to slow down her singing career because of that. not saying that I will be a proud voluntary massage friend for her.

She will stay with Fujimoto and perform for GAM. I dunno if she will manage her solo job anymore Sad2
