Utaite Friday : Yoru

I see people have joined using their open ids. Thank you very much! Anyway, more updates later since I have to prepare for class tomorrow. In the meantime...here's our utaite spotlight.


Yoru

mylist | blog | NND community | mixi community

Yoru a lesser known singer with a flexible, versatile voice. She has a powerful, low and husky voice similar to Yamai's. Because of her voice quality, she has very good jazzy covers. But she doesn't limit herself to jazzy songs. She has quite a list of covers, from popular Vocaloid songs (Melt, Black Rock Shooter, Roshin Yuukai) to less known ones. Some of the songs do not fit her voice to a T, but she still sounds good despite that.

One thing that I admire about Yoru is how she manages to change quickly from low to high pitch and vice-versa. This is why she sounds best in songs which are difficult to sing because of often fluctuating pitches despite starting low (Blindness, Just a Game, etc.). She also sings clearly and rarely sounds mumbling even though the lines are sung fast.

There are some songs sung by Yoru which I cannot listen to when covered by other people because I have set her as the ideal XD. Like Kami no Namae ni Ochiru Mono and Blindness (don't get me wrong. F9's Blindness is amazing, but it's just not my type of style). I usually like singers with lower voices but has good range compared to those with super high, shrilly voices, so Yoru has grown to be one of my favorites.
