Why didn't I think of this before?
Now SEVEN DAYS WAR is so obvious why it's the last song.

i have a feeling ayu is tooo tired and didn't maybe get the concert up to her expectation...

I still have the feeling she didn't wanted to do "this" but hey, it's just my own opinion, I respect those who think that doing 7 concerts in 10 days was her idea. it would have been fantastic doing her last 2 tour dates as every year in October at Yoyogi but some people still think ayumi is just a money making machine... what about next year? 20 concerts in one month???? :(

She does what she wants, and she controls till the very VERY little detail!

Seriously! The other day, the 3rd, there was concert but we just went there to do kachapon while there was nobody and wait for ayu after that... We talked with staff of the goods, one of them actually worked a bit for her, he was in HK for glitter/fated, anyway... he told us that she was really strict, and that the kachapon game in the venue (to win single keychains) she changed it 3 times because she wasn't satisfied...

I mean.. she takes the time ven to change 3 times that little thing?? How can anyone think she does sth she doesn't want to??

We also asked about Sunrise covers... And he told us that the problem was that there was too many lights there... so we understood that they noticed it in the editing and they could do nothing but photoshop it... but he said that ayu always checks the final result and agree or disagree with it...

So well just that... she had lot of work, and I can't imagine how was it if she even controls the goods and games, but I think it's normal to worry if they had little time to create it... it's a big 7 days final, and I'm sure this war is for her to keep staying in her place, that is one the stage, that is her war~

Now that is really interesting~

of course I know she controls everything, all produced by ayumi hamasaki means "everything", I just think was not her idea to do 7 concerts in 10 days, maybe someone suggested to her, just my opinion ok? I'm ONLY happy for the fans going to see her, also avex must be very happy earning a lot of money... yeay! c'mon guys, schedule for next year 20 concerts in 30 days!!!! :rolleyes money, money..

anyway, you were suggesting some time ago to do a previous 50th single anniversary tour or asia tour, sht.. just before CDL... it's not like really different even if it was a suggestion...

I still think if Ayu decided to go ahead with it is because she thought she could do it, and agreed. Ayu did worst things before,and Avex, as well as Ayu, have been earning money for lots of things for 12 years.

And as I was saying, just look at Seven days war lyrics:

Seven days war, I'll fight
Until I can get my hands on our place
Seven days war get place to live
So I can just be myself

Seven days war, I'll fight
I'll never give up our place to anyone
Seven days war get place to live
So I can live without hanging my head

This is her war.

Oh, and also try to read again her message, she says "not satisfied with coming together to present the best of the best, but to challenge to exceed even that", that doesn't mean she's not satisfied, just that she even wanted it to be MORE than the best of the best.

Thanks Misa for the translation, google is so messy...
I think Ayu is one of the few the artists who puts the biggest effort on all her shows and cares for every single detail, no matter how tiny. She's just unique.

It's not the same doing 10 or 15 concerts in 2 months than to do 7 concerts in 10 days.

I completely AGREE and thanks to all of you she will win this war :)

:yes:yes:yes I agree Its her war and She will win

Awww she really does work so hard non-stop! Ganbare Ayu!!!!

Yea, what she said is that basically her dancers and band members are working to give more than their best, and she's very grateful for that, that's why she cried. I don't understand why she won't be satisfied with such dedicated people working for her. :)

heheh me too, I wonder if they have spare of the outfits or she wears it for 7 times or they wash everyday

"I will continue to sing without regrets, for tomorrow, and the day after too, so"

******* I love this woman ;_;

thanks for translation.
