It's a sweet day today!!!
Hamasaki Ayumi(浜崎あゆみ) released her 46th single titled "Rule/Sparkle" today.The song "Rule" will be used as an international song for the upcoming movie "Dragonball Evolution".
Suzuki Ami(鈴木亜美) released her 30th single titled "Reincarnation".Although keeping to her new "electronic" genre,her song this time round doesn't involve much use of the static,electronic effects in her singing as contrast to her previous songs like "FREE FREE".
It's also important to mention that these two talented artistes are the two single biggest J-pop stars just 10 years ago.Back when Ami was still with Sony Entertainment.Both of them started off and found fame at just about the same time.Of course it's just a normal showbiz rivalry that's all "business",since Max Matsuura-san(manager and friend of Ayumi) was the one who handed Ami a contract and a lifeline after like a 3 and a half years absence from showbiz.
Back to the main point.Both these lovely ladies releasing each of their singles on the same date!!!A remainder of the fierce "rivalry" a decade ago?Sheer coincidence?Or is it a marketing strategy?

Let's leave this argument to the netizens.Ima do what a fanboy should do --> Support them blindly.Two for the price of one!Two singles out on the same date!Two lovely female artistes!What's there to complain =)
