I managed to get this live. Anyway, as always Ayu's concert had been rather grand and well-planned. And having extravagant props at the background shows how much of a renowned artist she is. *it's not a surprise when she was one of the top tax payer in Japan some time ago*

Umm...i had always been fascinated by her dancers/her band (i have to say her band is good, especially that guitarist of hers) and of course, the stage presence is really captivating.

However, i don't know why but her lives nowadays somehow doesn't really attract me much anymore. Maybe i've been too familiar with her whole *idol image* and *almost similar backdrops* that her *creativity* in presenting her songs live had started to bore me. A little at least, i still enjoy her lives, just it doesn't make me go WOW anymore this time. Maybe this ASIA TOUR just isn't her BEST. *i still love her My STORY live 2005, that was really good*

Ok, back to the topic...i have strayed haha...she started this track differently from the studio record. Begins with instrumentals and slowly picking up, mainly band performance and some before hand acting on-screen. The male lead is one of her dancers.


Wearinf kimono, with BLONDE HAIR, just like the one in her PV for this track. But i have to say, she looks less frightening here than in her PV.

Somehow, the costumes the he wore in here (below) reminds me of our very own Sarawakian ethnic groups....xD




And there she is....standing right in the middle of the stage.


She freaks me out when i first saw her appear. It's her blonde hair. I have to admit, she doesn't look good with it. She should dye her hair back to normal Asian color...or at least...brunette or sth more natural.


And i think age is keeping up with her, now that she's turning 30 this year. It shows very evidently actually. I mean, just compare her in this live and the *then 2005 live*


And using the FEATHER FANS somehow had been a bit boring coz she used these more than once in her lives. Somehow, everything here is a bit too predictable...maybe that was why i didn't enjoy this live very much.


I felt like i was watching some repeated lives, rather than a fresh performance.


Oh well...*some day though, if i have the chance i'd really want to go to one of her concert for like ONCE* that is, provided she's still in the business...what's with her left ear gone deaf and all...although she seemed confident enough to continue whatever she was doing, i am sure it would affect her singing one way or another. * btw...am i the only one who thinks her live singing has somehow deteriorate too...*
