How much do we know about her non-singing activities? Does she go to school or any formal education? Does she have any sibling? Does her family stay abroad?
It's only recently that her face is more well-known, so I don't know if we have much info about this. xD

Rade Maybe it's better like that. Celebrities often have their personal lives covered by media so it's not so personal anymore. Maybe that's just me, but I feel like we see more and more artists hiding their personal details (even real names and faces) to protect the little privacy they have left. It's kinda sad.

Apart from the polyp she has...I've read somewhere Aimer's lived in UK (but I don't know when) and that's why some of their songs are in English. I've read people say she's very young but I don't know her age either. I think her parents are musicians so she's been exposed to music since she was a child.
When I started listening to Aimer, the fact her face wasn't known made her more interesting and when she reveled it I felt like dissaponited because it was like the magic was gone xD like her aesthetic in cd covers, her music style are intriguing to me. I like the fact there isn't that much gossip information about artists but I'd like to know the basic personal stuff about them at least, such as what they've studied, how they got into music...

Let's go through what info do we already know, as well as some of my analysis and assumptions. She was born at Kumamoto, Japan on 9th July 1990, so she's 28 this year! She looks so young for her age! And yet even after knowing her age, I'm still in love with a lady 11 years older then me hahah. She was always surrounded by music, being influenced mainly by her father, who was a bassist in a Jazz/Blues band. She started as young as elementary school, that is when she started learning the piano. In middle school she was greatly influenced by Avril Lavigne, and that's when she picked up guitar and began to write songs in English. At one point she lived in the UK, I remembered reading somewhere that it was Bristol(?) but I could be wrong. And then there's the well known fact of when she lost her voice at 15 due to abuse of throat due to singing. But that is how she got her unique voice the years later. I assume that abuse of throat is from improper techniques of singing, so I assume that after the incident is when she started learning to properly train her singing voice. But there's a price to that unique voice, and that is that she is still singing with a damaged voice, from then until now. Actually, she IS singing with a damaged voice. She refuses to get it fixed since it can potentially change her current voice, and that is dangerous for her career and life as a singer. But, with that, it means that one day she could totally lose her voice all together. But.. she knows that fact very well. During axA concert (amazarashixAimer) in Singapore, I heard this very English phrase from her myself. "As long as I have my voice, I will keep singing. I want to live with you forever.. through the music." She knows herself that one day she might one day lose her voice, the voice we all love. But her love for music will keep her going forever. Going more towards her personal life, I assume that she is an only child because if she had a brother or sister, I would think that she would at least write a song related to them or siblings in general, or maybe it's hidden under a song's meaning that I didn't realize. Some of her hobbies are reading books, and when she likes a certain author, she would read all the books by that author. Books helps her with inspirations to writing lyrics, and I do agree as an aspiring songwriter myself. She likes travelling, that can be seen from mainly everything about her actually, from her pamphlets to her "live at anywhere" and even her name being derived from a french sentence. I think she definitely likes visiting places in France, Germany etc.. She's a person who loves nature, I believe. I'm glad her music also helped me appreciate and love nature everyday, I'm starting to love Earth more and I think that is the kind of music she wanted to reach. To being able to let us feel the feelings and beauty she had seen in her life and to convey it to us. Other things, she also has a pet tortoise named "Hoppe" and she loves cats! Generally, her life is honestly very beautiful the way I see it. I believe that she was meant for the music life and I'm glad she chose it. Beautiful voice, beautiful life and beautiful herself, that is why we all love her, because of who she is.

Roz beautifully written!! Yeah I was surprised too, that she's only one year older than me, I thought she was in her early twenties. I think i've read about Bristol too some years ago, but I dont remember where anymore. She said the same phrase during the axA concert in Tokyo too, the entire story with her voice is so heartbreaking, but that shows how strong of a woman she is! The imagery that she uses for her albums and music videos too, her appreciation for nature in general are the things that really inspired me. The last time a performer impressed me in such a way with the care he has about the world is Michael Jackson. I really would love to hear her sing a song in german and french someday, i'm sure it would be magical Another thing that Aimer is amazing at, is conveying some hurtful truths or painful memories that all of us know very well, like heartbreak, lonliness, fear, unrequited love and many more, but sing it in such a way that you always have hope that things will get better, she's is a positive thinking person, and we need more of them in this world!

Aquae Grimm I'm not sure what you mean with 'poplyp'. Roz What a detailed analysis! I'd add scribbling to her hobbies. In some of the handwritten lyrics we see, she also draws cute random little things on the paper. :3 It also seems like she particularly likes Europe maybe because she lived in UK previously. (I thought it was US.) It would be interesting to see her singing in those languages, even if it's only a cover song. edit: We're talking about how much she loves nature and then this happens: LOL
