Why is only her Sony stuff on spotify and her avex stuff is just non-existent there? They've got all of their other artists on there yet nothing from Around the World onwards is there for her.

She does work and releases songs from time to time but it seems she's settled into having her family.

Even though her first two albums sold over a million copies in Japan...If her agency had given her a break and paid her properly, she could have continued her spectacular career for at least a few more years like she did in her first three years.

What ever happened to this wonderful disco diva? Is Ami still active or has she disappeared off the face of the earth like so many of my favorite Japanese acts I grew up with in the late-90s/early-2000s?

@OJS48kenkyuusei it's the only one of hers that I like too. I think he did an amazing job. I like it so much because I imagine that's how he would have made music for ayumi hamasaki if she ever worked with him, since her and ami are similar.

forest-temple, that album is the only album of hers that i love. but i'm biased because i'm a Nakata fan. well, a former Nakata fan - i don't listen to much Perfume, capsule, kyarypamyupamyu, etc. anymore but the stuff he did for ami was different from the rest, i think. SS is probably Nakata's best album.

did anyone else think of the Supreme Show covers when Cinderella's dress transformed in the new movie?

A token of love, TEN, mysterious and climb up to the top are my faves. I prefer her capsule autotune voice over her original haha

I dig Supreme Show, can't stop the DISCO is the first song of hers that I heard though so take that with a grain of salt I guess, hah

Do people here like Supreme Show? I just got into Ami but so I don't know. I think it's literally perfect, every song.

I was just thinking of when Boys & Girls and BE TOGETHER were released in the same week. Hikki outsold everyone really, as much as a phenomenon Ayu was Hikki was just something from another dimension. I think one of the main factors was that Ayu and Hikki wrote their own lyrics, something unheard of in the idol world.

"kinda hard to say that ayu and hikki were even rivals though" it was mostly the media trying to stir shit, they were promoted in a completely different way anyway so most people wouldn't want to group those two together. ayu was more of a phenomenon in a similar way that akb is now.

kinda hard to say that ayu and hikki were even rivals though, considering that hikki outsold ayu with literally everything, except for M outselling Wait & See, and H outselling traveling. but yeah, ami didn't really stand much of a chance, with how quickly ayu jumped up.

her singles were selling a lot more than ayu's in 98 and they were very close through 99, be together and boys & girls were out on the same week but ami got weekly #1. ayu's popularity grew so fast her only real rival was hikki after 99.

"known rival of Ayumi Hamasaki" ....that didn't last long [2] I think it was only BE TOGETHER that rivaled with Ayu's Boys & Girls.
