JHipHop is horrid, and it takes no talent because they have 5 vowels and 'n' to rhyme with! You have to try hard to not rap in Japanese.


So that's why they throw that random string Hip hop cliche's in to the song, to stretch themselves lyrically!!!

Just heard it again in another cafe, barely 5 minutes ago!

love it. (want to learn it for karaoke but that's off on a tangent!... learn it well by the way!)

Another thing about this song: I have now seen about 3 times on television: an AD for this song, or, an ad with this song. It has the word 'Camelia' on it... >is that the artist, Camelia? ......i'm hoping to get closer to an artist and song title Wink

Ha! We might have nailed it. Hamasaki Ayumi's Fairyland is being used on an advertisement for Kanebo (?) "Camelia Diamond" at the mo. What was the ad for? Make-up? Only thing that gives me doubt is that you suggested Fairyland yourself at the beginning of this thread. It does have "Koko ni...oshiete..." in the chorus so that's another positive. Take yourself off to your local Tower Records and have a listen. Or follow this link for a quick sample..

Stick around in Japan long enough and youll see the songs repeat just with different, recently popular, singers.

seriously. Hamasaki Ayumi's singing Japanese is very hard for me to understand. maybe it's all her nasality i dunno.



after listening to the audio clip of Fairyland, this song is alot easier for me to aurally parse than her other songs...
