i have lost my interest on seeing her live since i'd be bored to death since she seems to perform Key, teddy bear, The Show must go on, evo, NOW & 4EVA, progress and STEP you all the time :no every single tour. +WARNING

i may sound bitchy but i just can't excited about her lives anymore apart from like 1 or 2 songs per tour

Same!! Lets just hope she does preform new songs on this years countdown.

Ivy, Shake it, 1LOVE YESSS but she did a lot of interesting songs only to substitute them with basics like seasons in the end :(

ayu fan: "Please sing RETURN ROAD, WISHING, monochrome...kar.."

ayu: "The most important thing is we are happy and we are all still alive. It doesn't matter which songs I preform on final and put on DVD.."


I know ayu is the best troll for all of us.

Everyone saw it coming, no surprise here.

Honestly she can perform STEP you at every single concert until the end of eternity and I will not complain. I get nervous every time I see it in the setlist though because I feel she's gonna wear it out and by the time I get a chance to see her again then that's the time she won't be performing it! It's like the one "hope" I would have on the setlist next time I see her.

All I will say about song selction is this...

1 - As a fan, and a longtime fan, I would love to hear older/more underperformed songs. I'm really sad I didn't get to see Return Road on either night.

2 - That said, many of her fans DO know her mostly for her hits. TA tour is slightly different, but even still. I will always repeat that last year when she did Present in the encore people were like...what's this song? I don't know it, I don't know the lyrics. And there is a visible drop in energy in the crown. Before the finale, I was talking to a Japanese girl outside and she was asking if me or this other girl have been to CDL. I said I haven't been to one since CDL 04-05 and her jaw dropped that I had been a fan for so long, and had seen her that long ago.

3 - To the above point, as an audience member, the energy is everything (in the best way). The concert is like a giant party. Even if you may be sick of Evolution, the crowd isn't. Even songs like Progress and NOW & 4EVA, which I don't particularly love, were awesome. And I was even surprised to find out that I knew the choruses pretty well.

I've enjoyed the giant party as well.

I was about to peace out the moment Red line was finished until I heard the first note of Ivy. It was a good surprise :)

Key's vocals were the rawest i had ever heard her voice. I could feel the emotion.

When I saw that she didn't stop to change the setlist I thought the same thing. As if she was taking advantage of the TA tour to train herself to sing these songs.

You're so right!

If there is going to be a DVD.

I don't care about repeated performances anymore lol.

was there even announcement about recording?

Good question! But was there one last year?

It was definitely filmed at the Tokyo finale. There were cameras all over, and the 1F standing area was a good 3-4 feet further back from the stage to allow them to move around -- it was not like that the night before.

I really like those pictures!!! The costume is very pretty, too imo.

i like the stage, it's pretty cool! she looks amazing as well :yes

Agree! But iirc someone said she doesn't use the different levels of it, which is a bit sad imo.

Is there no band on stage this year?
