Salyu

[TheSlyPig]

While in Japan this summer I got to see a short (30 minute) concert by Salyu, and I was wondering how many of you have heard of her. She was the female singer on Bank Band's (Sakurai) "To U" release a few years ago, and has since been signed to Toy's Factory and released a few CD's. Amazing voice, huge range, and tons of power. The concert was great, she blew everyone away. It seems that most of the Japanese people I asked in Japan though either had never heard of her or didn't like her though, so I was curious what you guys thought.

If you haven't heard of her, please watch these videos and post what you think!

I've liked her music for awhile now... her songs LIBERTY and SWEET PAIN were my first introduction to her.

She's one of the few Japanese singers/bands that I recognize by name... (along with Ayaka Hirahara, Hikaru Utada, Yuki, and maybe Arashi etc.)
