Maybe some people believe that happy! = childish.
I do not believe this.
I believe that happy! = genki!
Otsuka music = healthy! |

Sure is healthy. It's good for cheering people up too. It clears away the stress. Ai is like a doctor.  |

I don't think her songs are childish. Especially the lyrics. I guess it's the arrangement sometimes. But I like it. They're just very hyper and genki! And it cheers me up.  |

| Oh, that happened to me too! I love Ai so much and i showed many of my friends her music videos. Well, only some of them like it...most said her voice is annoying. Maybe it's the Western taste after all. |

Yeah, I knew cute was like a common characteristic in Japan. Ai masters it! Ai's songs and herself are not childish in my opinion. It's just the way the Western music flows. I like it, she is very inspirational.  |

Yes, he's a cool 8 year old fox by the name of Miles "Tails" Prower. Best friend of Sonic the Hedgehog. Tails salute! Having him come to life would be very shocking.  |

同意しますよ!
If you look at the characters that make up the word "genki", you see "gen" (beginning/origin) and "ki" (spirit), so really, to be "genki" is to have the original spirit you were born with, before you grew older and lost that original feeling. In that sense, to be able to have the mind/spirit of a child, even though you have become an adult, is a great thing. If Ai's music is childish, it's childish in a good way. |

| not at all. I don't see a problem with having fun, being cute & goofy. We all can be...whether we're 10, 25, or even 90! She's very mature with her music & always has great topics to talk about in them. They have good meaning w/ a fun rythm and cute style. There's nothing immature or childish about that. She's not trying hard to be cute, she just is anyway. =P |

This is true, Oosaka-ben tends to be very energetic and genki.
I rather like all of Ai-chin's music...
And childish music is hilarious to me.
Actually, CHU-LIP made me laugh the most out of all her other PVs...
Ah, if only I knew her in person. |
