In 2017, I went to see her open for another artist in Hiroshima. She was just starting to gain momentum in Japan but was still relatively unknown, so the venue was sparse until she had nearly finished. After her performance, she set down her guitar and slipped off the stage right into the audience to watch the main act. I walked over, and we shared a brief conversation. She was incredibly warm and gracious, truly an embodiment of her music. Wonderful to see her receiving so much recognition. Edit: Wow, happy to see that this story resonated with others. To add a bit of context, it's quite common in Japan to feel a barrier when interacting with strangers or new acquaintances. An invisible wall of sorts, in which people project their "public face," or the persona they feel is merited by that social setting. What felt so authentic about Aoba-san was her unassuming demeanor - a willingness to bypass those formalities and simply convey a genuine sense of gratitude to those listening. She came into the audience purely to connect, and I personally have the sense that she seeks to cultivate something parallel in her music :')
she is one of those artists that make you question... "do i even deserve to listen to this?" because of how unreal the listening experience has been. at least for me, i am still at loss of words on how to describe her. her voice heals me from my worries. i am so grateful i get to know her.
This is one of those comments that elevates my experience because I've always been speechless listening to her, you've helped define how I myself have felt. Hearing other's stories about their time listening to her always sounded more "genuine" of an experience as opposed to my own. Being, that I found her on the internet while daydreaming under sunsets, alone. No heartfelt stories or tragic moments that encompass my experience and enriche it. I have though, come to appreciate everyone's tales and when her voice washes over me I imagine all of your faces and the bliss or sorrow you must have. I hope you're all doing okay
I listen to her music on days that my heart weighs heavy on my chest. it makes it feel like the burden is a little lighter. I also listen to her when my heart feels at peace. it's like the comfort of hearing an old friend's laughter. I've found myself with tears streaming down my face more than a few times now while listening to her sing. I keep on wondering in awe every time, thinking that she must actually be an angel. I'm glad to see I'm not the only one who feels like this.
My mind was flooded with problems and school, just few seconds into the video everything just disappeared for a moment and I felt like all the weight on my shoulders lifted. Thank you Ichiko Aoba.
I've loved Ichiko for so long now... She's helped me so much. And all the shows I went to, all the times I met her - she is such a wonderful human being, almost a fairy, a present from nature... I just wish I could meet her once more... but I'm far away now. So I keep listening to these prayers. Thanks for compiling these dear songs ❤
I was really anxious about a lot of things in my life, and then I stumbled upon this compilation. It has calmed me down a bit. I am forever grateful for Ichiko and her music. Thank you for uploading this.
She's really got such a great style of accompanying herself on guitar. Thank you for putting this together and sharing. Downloaded it and added it to my library.
This playlist honestly changed my life, this was my first exposure to Ichiko’d music. Now I’ve seen her twice and I pretty much listen to her every night. It’s changed the way I look at the world
i found this this morning after staying up all night, playing games and talking to friends earlier in the evening... i was alone. If i ever could not listen to this i would be a little upset . i love this more than any of the new music i've found recently. perfect to play casual games like grand theft auto alone to. while driving around in an empty public lobby selling cars using an import export vehicle warehouse or playing minecraft trying to gather every high value item when the owner prefers to leave the realm on passive for weeks since the realm opened with no signs of ever changing it
Thank you for the song and the cover drawing it leads me back to my childhood memories. When I just draw what I want and think of. My classmate would just sit next to me and we would make up some stories and draw the stories in our notebooks, time seems paused during the process ❤
It's been a month since my girlfriend left me, and ever since she left, all I've been doing is crying under the weight of everything. It feels like my heart is being ripped apart. Listening to Ichiko heals me. Finally, I'm tearing up because of the overwhelming lightness in Ichiko's voice. For the first time, I feel like I'm on cloud 9. It feels like my heart is being embraced and comforted. I can't say much more, thank you for existing in this world, Ichiko. 🥺😭You've saved many from suffering. Thank you for simply existing, ichiko🥺
Спасибо вам, эта музыка пробудила во мне теплые чувства Я стала вспоминать то, за что я благодарна окружающим меня людям и даже расплакалась от любви Спасибо
I'm thninking of him, thinking if it's going to work, or all I would end up with is his memories. I am ready to walk the miles, be where I am not welcomed just to see him, feel at ease and peace like I did when I first met him. It's fragile and uncertain, I just wish he knew how much I am willing to fight for it.

That's a fantastic anecdote. I found her a long time ago and just assumed she was already known.

Hearing the nujabes cover made smile from ear to ear, hearing my favourite artist do a cover song from another favourite of mine is wonderful
this was me with the moon river cover omg !!
same here!
Same!!!! Got goosebumps
28:59 culminating cuteness
My mind was flooded with problems and school, just few seconds into the video everything just disappeared for a moment and I felt like all the weight on my shoulders lifted. Thank you Ichiko Aoba.
힘내세요.당신은 멋진사람입니다😊
最近初めてUA-camに寝落ちる前までに偶然?(いや、私にとっては必要だったと思います)最近、知りました。イラストも落ち着く様な、どこか懐かしい様な。1曲目から歌声も音も歌詞も何だかとても優しく、懐かしい様な全てが自然な響きに感じて涙が出てくる。年齢的には良い歳をしてるのに私は本当に未熟でいつも先も不安だらけだ。😢
何だか優しい子守唄の様な心地良さ。素朴ですごく温かい様な気持ちになる。繊細かつ空気の入っている様な自然と何気ない毎日の色々な日々と一体化した様な哀しく優しい色々な気持ちの時の音や曲や声。とても落ち着きます。知れて良かったです。特に知ってる曲も、こんなに悲しいことが新年からあり色々、国内は勿論、世界でも世の中でも起きている時は涙が止まらない😢
温かい気持ちにさせてくれて、私を泣かせてくれてありがとうございます。本当に上手くコメントになどできず🙏言葉にならないほど何か違う温かみや良さを歌声や音や雰囲気や空気感から感じました。涙がとまりません。でも泣けるだけ幸せでマシです。心や気持ちをマヒさせてない状況に今はいられているのだから。
明日は、当たり前の平穏な毎日と日々がきます様に。本当は生き、生かされてる中でしていく事が、1番難しく尊くある事だと思ってます。明日は平穏な1日であります様に。
今と明日とこれからのその瞬間、瞬間が多くの人々にとって幸せと思える毎日であります様に。そうしたら、きっといつか自分にも巡ってきて幸せも穏やかさもきっと増える様な、そんな気が何となく?するから。優しい気持ちにさせてくれる音の世界をありがとうございます。知れた事に感謝します!長文でごめんねなさい…🙏感じたままの音色や自分の現実や、世の悲しく辛さや不正や負が続くと… 「音がらみ、自然音など」は、すごく伝わるのです。ありがとう。素晴らしい音と歌声と曲。

I've loved Ichiko for so long now... She's helped me so much. And all the shows I went to, all the times I met her - she is such a wonderful human being, almost a fairy, a present from nature... I just wish I could meet her once more... but I'm far away now. So I keep listening to these prayers.
Thanks for compiling these dear songs ❤
She's in the US this year if that's where you reside.
あと14日で出産予定のお腹の赤ちゃんと聴いてます👶♡はじめての妊娠と出産で不安がないと言ったら嘘になるけど…まわりの人に素直に甘えたり助けてを求めてみたり、こうしてのんびり音楽に身を委ねたりこのギフトを大切にします。
ありがとう🌸
外の世界にでてきても一緒に聴こうね〜
Congratulations!!~❤🥳
who doesnt love ichiko aoba's songs?? theyre such a comfort and i hope she gets more more recogniziton
32:48 - 33:28 This part is kinda insanely mesmerizing
It´s so rarely these days that I listen to someone and I just cant stop , really blessed on her quite owned versions of herself.
I dropped everything and just closed my eyes and relaxed. what an enchanting voice.. to think I thought Ikinokori-bokura was her best, I was so naive
her lily chouchou cover is by far my fav of everything shes covered, honestly is probably in my top ten for anything shes sang as well hehe
which song is that cover?
@@lailayas its the 4th track , アラベスク (Shunji Iwai)
@@danben3675 thank u so much!!
I just got healed by her voice, had a rough day at work. Now, i feel the stress and bad things are washed away by her waves of beautiful healing voice
なんて貴重な音源!
今まで見逃してました💧
音源化してほしい
切に望みます
ああ、いい音
アップありがとうございます
市子さんの声って心洗われる
Her music makes me appreciate what i have right now
The flow of the woven songs is very beautiful. Thank you for poetry curating.
😊
this music is so wholesome, that I'm trying to equally listen to every song, cause I don't want any of them to feel alone in my playlist/
the nujabes cover shocking me holy moly shes so goated
wow, the arabesque cover is so pretty. it somehow fits her voice and style perfectly. i think ichiko soba has the ether:)
なんて優しい声…なぜか涙がでる
そうね :') 美しい声や言葉で説明することができない
Just before I thought Ichiko couldn't get any more amazing, she does a Nujabes cover. WE DON'T DESERVE HER!!
まとめてくれて本当にありがとう
I think this video just cured my depression ... such otherworldly beautiful voice.. I love ichiko aoba so much
I was really anxious about a lot of things in my life, and then I stumbled upon this compilation. It has calmed me down a bit. I am forever grateful for Ichiko and her music. Thank you for uploading this.

アラベスクのカバーはヤバイ…!
thanks so much for this, never would've guessed she covered a lily chouchou song
This playlist honestly changed my life, this was my first exposure to Ichiko’d music. Now I’ve seen her twice and I pretty much listen to her every night. It’s changed the way I look at the world
my ears have been blessed. thank you for this!
her music is so quietly touching
It's really peaceful. Your voice is so lovely and gentle.
the fishmans one is heaven sent
if I may ask, where did you get that from ?
Thank you so much for this and for uploading it to Drive!
聽了這個歌單幾個月了 最愛的還是第二首七尾旅人的馬戲團之夜
저는 요즘 힘든 일이 없다고 생각했는데, 아오바 이치코씨의 노래를 들으며 제 자신을 다시 보게 되었어요. 생각해보니 제가 따뜻한 보살핌과 유년시절의 발랄함을 그리워하고 있었더라고요. 그래서 어젯밤에 많이 울었습니다. 감사해요.
28:59 my favorite part
Yeah i love this part too~~
That Nujabes really hit me in the feels man
i found this this morning after staying up all night, playing games and talking to friends earlier in the evening... i was alone. If i ever could not listen to this i would be a little upset . i love this more than any of the new music i've found recently. perfect to play casual games like grand theft auto alone to. while driving around in an empty public lobby selling cars using an import export vehicle warehouse or playing minecraft trying to gather every high value item when the owner prefers to leave the realm on passive for weeks since the realm opened with no signs of ever changing it
mmm, what a impressive artist... I was looking for musics like this!! thank you!!
This is an amazing idea, thank you for compiling this
Nujabes AND fishmans?! I am very happy this exists.
So trancend and ethereal. It is definitely one piece of my peace I will keep treasure. Thank you for making it possible for us. Bless you.
I have never felt such peace
My favorite living musician! Ichiko and Danny Brown actually make music.
Thank you for the song and the cover drawing it leads me back to my childhood memories. When I just draw what I want and think of. My classmate would just sit next to me and we would make up some stories and draw the stories in our notebooks, time seems paused during the process ❤

I am just discovering her ethereal voice ✨🧚🏼 Thank you for sharing such beauty 🌸
I was listening to this casually, then heard Nujabes pop up! Loving it big time.
Спасибо вам, эта музыка пробудила во мне теплые чувства
Я стала вспоминать то, за что я благодарна окружающим меня людям и даже расплакалась от любви
Спасибо
Thank you for the video and music, it turned out very 可愛い😇🌺
welcome back ichiko

calmer to my nerves
thanks, thanks a lot
Top-notch member of society, when the maker becomes your own being

The taiyorinai tenshi cover is making me so happy :))))))
