Well I realized today that Ishiguro/Yamada doesn't have her own thread...and since I'm sure I'm not the only fan of hers on these boards, I think that she seriously needs one.

So! The thing that made me realize that I totally adore Ayappe is the making of Love Machine. She completely goofs around during her blue screen filming, dancing really overexageratedly and making these really overdone facial expressions. And during the recording, she gets really into it and sings with this really intense and silly vigour. It's really, really funny, but a classy kind of hilarious. So I admire that.

Also she has a great voice, especially in Tanpopo where it was shown off more...and she's really, really pretty:

Also...has anyone ever read her books? How are they? I'm especially curious about "Musume Kara Mama e -Ishiguro Aya no LOVE2 Ko Sodate Revolution"...

1. In the "love machine" PV, isn't she the one (along with Sayaka) doing the "Naissu Body body body" move? That was nice! :w00t!:

2. Although I really like ALL Tanpopo line-ups, the only "real" Tanpopo (in my opinion) was the initial three piece. Amazing moody, melancholic atmosphere that never got back after Ishiguro graduated. The new members brought along tons of happiness and cuteness, which were all welcome, but their first album "Tanpopo 1" is unique for H!P standards. Aya's contribution in that one cannot be denied.

My only problem is that I never got too connected to Aya Ishiguro (as I did, for example with Nono or Rika) because she left MM too early. I hope she's happy wherever she is right now!

::D: I remember when I first noticed what they were doing my face went :D

I agree completely. Tanpopo was still good after she left, but it lost something in its new line ups...I never really got into the newer Tanpopo songs, not really, but Motto is still one of my top favorite H!P tunes...ever.

My only problem is that I never got too connected to Aya Ishiguro (as I did, for example with Nono or Rika) because she left MM too early. I hope she's happy wherever she is right now!

Yeah...I really wish she'd stuck around longer, but I guess she left because she got pregnant and had to run off to get married. Whoops! (She married Shinya from Luna Sea, though, which I think is pretty cool. Luna Sea is one of the first japanese groups I ever listened to, so...)

And I think she's still fairly active in the entertainment world, (?) but I have no idea of what she's doing...but yeah, whatever it is I hope it is going well for her. :D

I just read there that she has got three kids already! Boy, that was fast!!!

Thanks for creating this thread. Just started to do some research about the "forgotten" members myself which sometimes is more interesting than the current stuff :-)

Thanks for the thread, Aya is definitely a top member in my book.

Actually she does a few TV shows here and there. I don't think many people see them because they aren't too H!P related and whatnot.

And yes, I love the original Tanpopo lineup. Aya+Kaorin+Yaguch= :c16: .

Yup, her husband is Shinya from Luna Sea. He's a really good drummer and seems like a really funny guy from all the interviews I've seen of him.

I really liked Aya while she was in MM. She got more time in Tanpopo -- I loved her voice -- but I just wish she hadn't left so soon.

I think some most of you have listened to this already, but for those who haven't, this is Aya's solo version of Tanpopo's "Seinaru Kane ga Hibiku Yoru"

http://www.sendspace.com/file/oa3yaj

If you haven't, download it now! Her voice is great and she does not play safe.

So to start discussion: the thing that made me realize that I totally adore Ayappe is the making of Love Machine.

And during the recording, she gets really into it and sings with this really intense and silly vigour. It's really, really funny, but a classy kind of hilarious. So I admire that.

Also she has a great voice, especially in Tanpopo where it got showed off more...and she's really, really pretty:


PREACH!! PREACH!! I couldn't agree any more with the above!

Although I really like ALL Tanpopo line-ups, the only "real" Tanpopo (in my opinion) was the initial three piece. Amazing moody, melancholic atmosphere that never got back after Ishiguro graduated. The new members brought along tons of happiness and cuteness, which were all welcome, but their first album "Tanpopo 1" is unique for H!P standards. Aya's contribution in that one cannot be denied.


"Last Kiss" is one of my all time favourite H!P songs, and Ayappe's voice was what gave that song the overall feeling. I like the 2nd generation Tanpopo a lot ("Otome Pasta Ni Kandou" is another favourite) but it wasn't the same old Tanpopo after that. Aya WAS Tanpopo. Period.


Also, who else LOVES her vocals in the early MoMusu songs? I LOOOOVE the entire "First Time" album with all the Ayappe goodness ("Good Morning", "Summer Night Town", "Samishii Hi"). Ayappe and Sayaka are the reasons why pre-Goto MoMusu is my favourite of all!

In case anyone doesn't already know this, Aya has a blog and she updates pretty often. She talks about a bunch of stuff, like her kids, dinners, and sometimes MM. It's really interesting and she has a really cute chubby baby!! Oh and I think she is happy being a Mom, she seems like a really great mom from what I see.

Was re-watching the Ai no Apron episode she was in that was on the tracker. Noticed she's using Ishiguro as her last name on that show. Maybe legally it's Yamada but still uses Ishiguro as her stage name which is common when a woman is well known before she gets married and besides it can get messy with those hyphenated names and/or changing one's name to a symbol or something.
