Joanna Wang
Anyone heard of her? She's actually kinda big in Tawain, she's a 19 or 20 year old Chinese-American musician, but she lives in Taipai. Her first album has a really Jazzy sound, but according to her, she hates it and was basically forced to sing most of it. Anyway she has a channel on youtube where she does covers and her "real" stuff.
here is a link of her doing a cover of SR's "Kabukichou no Joou" http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mFf0i3gttSs

Well, her voice is suited more for jazz on my cursory listen.
And her staring at the camera and back to the lyric sheets is creepy. =p

Yeah I agree, she has a voice that was made for jazz, but I think she hates it. And I think she's looking at the lyrics sheets because she isn't really fluent in Japanese. She usually just sings in English or "Minnan" which is the Tawainese dialect of the Chinese language.

I should hook up with her and we can go all AJICO on the masses.

She could probably go all Ajico on the masses without you dude haha.
I personally like Joanna's vocals better than UA's, on a sidenote, even though at this point she is far less established.

Er, maybe. A band is more fun than being solo though. Plus, she can't sing a duet by herself. =D I wonder if she can sway her body like UA...

Hmm...I just don't know about this chick. She's trying too hard with the dramatic slow-downs and over-enunciations and pink hairclips. Being fucking cool comes easy to Shiina Ringo, but not with this one. Someone posted this video somewhere else on this forum, and she just rubs me the wrong way.
