 If Max Martin met Chuck Palahniuk, the collaboration would resemble Ayumi's debut effort August 23, 2008
If Max Martin met Chuck Palahniuk, the collaboration would resemble Ayumi's debut effort. Themes touched upon in this album range from dead-beat fathers to full blown existentialism.
On first glance, the songs seem like any late 90's pop act; however, beneath the synthesizers and flashy production, Ayumi's raw, poignant lyrics reach out to the Holden Caulfield in everyone.
The song 'Poker Face', Ayumi's first major hit, touches upon the subject of loneliness, and self-worth; obviously drawn from Ayumi's rough childhood.
*Even if you are not proficient in Japanese, I'd recommend downloading the English translation of her lyrics; Ayumi Hamasaki is a worthy artist; and that should be enough to surpass the language barrier.
Ayu's 1st album January 3, 2007
This is Ayu's 1st album. It is an excellent piece of work. And it became a bestseller. My favorite.
Her full name is Ayumi Hamasaki. Not "K"amasaki.

All the songs in this album are nice. It ranges from fast to slow song. Not only that, you want to listen to this album again and again.

Ayumi Hamasaki is my all time favorites j-pop artist. She writes and sings all kinds of song that I could listen to all day. If you haven't ever heard J-pop listen to this!
