Her voice is phenomonal at least better than Ayumi Hamasaki's. Many people just like her for the kingdom hearts themes but never listened to her japanese songs. Her album "Distance" was competing with Ayumi Hamasaki's album "A best" and she has sold more copies than her. Her song "Can you keep a Secret" reached number 1 on the oricon charts of the year. Even though shes not considered an idol like other j pop stars due to her humble looks, her songs are catchy and beautiful and has meaningful lyrics.

Many people judge her because of her english songs not even hearing her japanese songs saying she cannot write sh*t.

"Thats the girl who sang the KH themes utada hikaru!"
