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.

sample songs
solos:
• Blindness
• Wanderlast
• Kami no Namae ni Ochiru Mono
• Scissorhands
• Just a Game
• Roshin Yuukai - Hard R.K. mix

collabs:
Eh? Aa, Sou (w/ Keysuke)
Ochiba Waltz (w/ terry)

nikki says
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.

Utattemita Ranking # 85 (June 14-21, 2010)

This is an interesting ranking, quite lively compared to the two previous ones. Surprisingly, I'm most interested in the top 10 new up ranking instead of the top 30. Still, the top 2 songs in the overall weekly can't be ignored. Still some Ochame lingering (seriously, Lon's is undefeated) and there's a new song people are starting to make mass covers of XD.

↑# - the song moved up from a previous top 30 rank
↓# - song moved down from a previous top 30 rank
↵ - song is a re-entry to the top 30 rankings

I'll be including the weekly top ten and the overall top thirty of the week. Links to the nicovideo are included as well as some information. You may download the .mp3 file by inputting the link @ nicosound. Enjoy!

Utattemita Ranking (November 23-30, 2009)

I'm really way behind ;;. I hope people are reading this even though it's late OTL. Two rankings ago, there is a new insert introduced to the ranking aside from the weekly 5 pickups. This is the "last year in top 5" segment where the top 5 songs in the ranking one year ago will be played. I guess I should be including those songs, too, but we'll see :).

I'll be including the weekly top ten and the overall top thirty of the week. Links to the nicovideo are included as well as some information. You may download the .mp3 file by inputting the link @ nicosound. Enjoy!

NEW UPLOAD RANKING

o1. 小鳥がry大漁のプロイセン [あとる]
• Kotori ga (ry Tairyou no Prussia [Atoru]
• singer's mylist
• original MAD
• Atoru does a lot of covers of Hetalia MADs and I while I understand the Hetalia fever Nico people have, I will never understand the MADs xDD;.

o2. 1925 [Yoru]
• singer's mylist
• Hatsune Miku original by T-Pocket
• This is a nice cover compared to some earlier covers of the song. Yoru just sometimes overexert her voice and it sounds a bit whiny.

o3. カナザワカレー [ななひら]
• Kanazawa Curry [Nanahira]
• singer's mylist
• This is an original song and is the usual cutesy pop song Nanahira is used to singing.

o4. envy. [セリユ]
• envy. [Seriyu]
• singer's mylist
• Megurine Luka original by 古川P (Furukawa-P)
• Seriyu has a really wonderful voice and while she sings by the book, she can still make the song interesting to listen to. Envy, however, is too slow and poignant to catch my interest. /sleepy

o5. シザーハンズ [マチゲリータ]
• Scissorhands [MachigeritaP]
• singer's mylist
• Hatsune Miku original by Nem
• Machigerita is also a Vocaloid producer :). This is a rather sexy cover ^.^;.

o6. いろは唄 [志麻]
• Iroha Uta [Shima]
• singer's mylist
• Kagamine Rin original by 銀サク (Ginsaku)
• LOL I'm used to guys singing covers of this Rin song, but Shima's still amused me. It's not as sexy as, say, Clear's or Dasoku's, but it's pretty well sung.

o7. ねぇ [ヲタみん]
• Nee. [Wotamin]
• singer's mylist
• Hatsune Miku original by ほえほえP (Hoehoe-P)
• Wotamin has gone back to singing high ballads after her amazing cover of "Tengaku". I'm not complaining though, since her voice fits this kind of ballads.

o8. B.O.M. [tane]
• singer's mylist
• Kagamine Rin and Len original by マイゴッドP (MyGodP)
• Tane is back with a great cover! I really miss this guy. He's not as amazing as some of my favorites but for some reason, he always sounds good to me :3 (Well, I did listen to his sheep-counting thing sometime ago...)

o9. Fate:Rebirth [ココナシ助]
• Fate:Rebirth [Kokonashijou]
• mylists: Kokoru, Takanashi, Kiijou
• Kamui Gakupo, KAITO and Kagamine Len original by natsuP
• I love natsuP's VanaN'ice songs. This is a pretty good cover, a little lacking in punch but I might be just spoiled by VaSoClear's Imitation Black :3. I've seen quite a lot of covers for this. A new trend after Imitation Black? :P

1o. ナーバス [新社会人]
• Nervous [Shin Shakaijin]
• singer's mylist
• Hatsune Miku original by shizuru
• Another new name to me that I should look up XD;. This is an okay cover. Not impressive, but also not bad (well, it's in the ranking after all). I guess it's just that I listened to Anima's version before I watched this cover fully so I'm a bit biased :x.
