i feel amaze by the stage...
it's 5 layer round stage...and all of it can spin and 4 of it can goes up and down...how cool is that? i believe the stage cost a lot..

Only 4 spin and I THINK only 3 go up and down. Still amazing though.

Maybe she got sick of someone else being the self-proclaimed "queen of live" haha.

I most definitely got sick of it when that "Queen"'s stage presence has only been going down and down and down for years as her concerts became more flashy :innocent

And only sings half of the song while she lets do the backing track do the work while she strips and does other ungodly acts on stage

Ouch! I kind of agree, but I still think she is a good performer when she wants to be.

thanks for those links, i can finally watch it *__*

I totally surprised when Urata suddenly come and sing dream ON with ayu O__O"
Seems like on 30th Dec show, ayu just sing her part when playing dream ON PV, right??

I pretty much expected him to appear on the 31st, without him it's just no proper concert finale, she wouldn't let that be shown on TV and DVD.

Do you guys really think Last Angel vocals were bad? I thought they were amazing.
And I'm waiting a good quality file to watch the whole show. I watched some performances on youtube and it seems to be great!

^

I found the vocals in all songs really good

^^I think it's just mostly screaming.. it doesn't sound like the original song at all to me. but I get it, it's hard for her to reach those super high notes. It probably would have been better if she started the show with a different song that wasn't so hard for her to sing.

We weren't listening to the same thing then. Last angel was just terrible :dead2

Last Angel was the only one I previewed and I thought it was terrible! She is like a shouting tone-deaf. Lol.

I think the BALLAD medley was my favorite part! Dearest :heart

Last Angel vocals were okay, they were very forceful but she sounded mostly in tune. Duty was totally awesome though. The whole concert was very up and down vocal wise, but it's the end of a very long and jam packed year, she was probably exhausted.

Is this LOVE? was the weirest song she sang in the concert ...
But the rest was good :D

^ is this LOVE? was better in AT 06!

People here are right, it definetly sounded a lot like just screaming in the mic then having to take another breathe! Love song i can understand, because that song is kind of like the 1 breath all-you-can sound, but not for songs like Last angel...

Visually I found it to be one of her best shows. The stage, costumes, revamped visual concepts for her older songs -- it was stunning. Also I was happy with the fact that she kept her dancers involvement to a minimum. I'm so sick of her setting a theme of love with Shuya in all her ballads. Glad she kept it to one song. Then there usually was a section where it would be boys vs. girls. Great that she took that out. But even though I found this to be one of her best as far as the presentation was concerned, that didn't make it any better because her vocals were horrible through out most of the show. I felt like her vocals were the strongest with her older songs. I loved loved loved her ballad medley, except for CAROLS. The same goes for her trauma-audience-flower garden medley. Duty was also very well sung. But songs like last angel / Bold & Delicious / CAROLS, were making my ears hurt. Even with being deaf in one ear, a singer should still be aware that screaming isn't going to make everything sound better. Isn't that why she has an ear piece, to help her hear the music better and tone out the audience screaming and other miscellaneous sounds? All in all I thought it was an excellent show but I think Ayu really needs to work on utilizing songs that compliment her voice more. There are many singers that take their hit songs and drop it down an octave. Ayu should do the same instead of screaming her way through all the songs. In the long run it would benefit her voice more. Still love her, no matter what <3

I think that Endless Sorrow was really... meh :( I can't hear her "AAAAAAAAAAAH!" anymore >_< I hope that it will be arranged for the DVD.
