|

Wow, talk about a huge surprise!
That's a lot of costume changes. I wonder when we'll get to see the outfits. |

forgiveness :luv2 And, and, AHHH, Want to hear BRILLANTE live so bad.
Bold & Decision... :laugh |
If we can't talk about what we dislike, then better stop repeating what we do like. Hell might as well shut the damn forum down and not comment at all.
Yes it is my opinion, but I do not feel the need to put (in my opinion) after what I right. Obviously it's my opinion or I wouldn't be writing such comments. I know I am a little harsh on the songs I dislike, but I find humor in being brutally honest. This forum needs to lighten up. :rolleyes Differing opinions, that's what makes the forum exciting. Laughable. Enjoyable. Who wants to come to a forum where every thread is. "I like this song." "Oh, that is nice." "Cool." |
Hmm... You're right in voicing your opinion. I think maybe it's the way you convey your feelings about the songs. I don't know, maybe if you don't like something, you could say you don't like it rather than 'it is simply trash'. People don't like it when something they do like gets criticized. I understood what you mean about being able to speak honestly, but I couldn't help feeling upset about the harshness to something I like. Hope it makes sense.
|
@zeke
but please apreciate the song wether u like it or dislike it.. Choosing the right words be4 speaks em up.. Ayu had worked hard for those songs which u call them 'trash' yeah its forum n it's free to convey our opinion but everyone n even urself will be feeling insulted n pissed off when u had done a thing with all ur might then someone called ur work as a garbage.. |
Wow, this setlist is perfect! Love love love it.
I wanted ANother Song too, but there's no way to complain about it with such a great selection. |
@Zeke, apparently your opinion just insulted those minority people in ahs that like these songs u called trash, and in my "OPINION" u're just being inconsiderate
|
I am happy that there are costume changes and BRILLANTE!!! no monochrome, slightly disappointed. :(
and seriously U guys are criticising Zeke's choice of word. -_- people shld learn how to take such things with a pinch of salt. |
Anyway, from Tim's FB:
I performed in Ayu's concert tonight! I sang BRILLANTE, Bold & Delicious, Evolution, Boys & Girls, Born to be Free, A Song is Born and Thank U! It was an amazing experience... I made some mistakes though, so I have to go over everything tonight and try harder tomorrow! Thank you Ayu for giving me this chance! |
^ Wow! Instead of Duets with Nao and JUNO, we get duet with TIM?
I love the new setlist except for Bold & Delicious. |
If everyone sugar-coated everything then their would be no humor on television or anywhere for that matter. I get how my statements can come off as bold. But really, you shouldn't feel offended - I love Ayu just as much as everyone but I am not afraid to be honest when I dislike something. Ayu did not produce/compose/arrange these songs - she just wrote the lyrics and sang the songs. Everything about them that makes them trash to me has nothing to do with her or her work. That being said, those songs are bottom of the barrel when it comes to the name that is "hamasaki ayumi" and I stand by my accusations of them being worthless.
Again, excuse my harsh words. And actually, believe it or not, I don't HATE them. I just don't see the point of them existing. Hell come to think of it, I dislike Sexy little things and meaning of Love and possibly Don't look back even more so. I guess it is because of how much I adore(d) Love songs (minus Love song and Thank U). |
I wonder just how 'featured' he was in the songs besides BRILLANTE.
|
@Zeke.
I think the problem, what annoys people, is not the fact that u dislike those songs... is how much u repeat it... I don't think there's is anyone who reads Ayu threads on AHS that don't know what u think about FIVE... So... we got it buddy, let it be... |
tim wasn't really featured aside from BRILLANTE. he was kind of just another dancer, although definitely the most attractive, in my eyes.
|
BRILLANTE!!!! :heart I love this tracklist!
|

wow the setlist is amazing !! No duets, there is BRILLANTE and progress, and wow, flamenco dress, yay |

From now on how 'bout we all stop talking about the following since we've heard it so much on this forum: * fish lips * CREA and how much we want her back and love it * alterna * Memorial address (the song) * A BEST 3 * Ayu losing popularity/declining sales * BRILLANTE and how everyone loves it * Favorite Ayu songs * Least favorite Ayu songs * Leslie Kee * Wishing Ayu would dye her hair dark again * her husband * Sunrise / Sunset photoshoot scandal "I don't think there's is anyone who reads Ayu threads on AHS that don't know" the above. It's all common knowledge, might as well stop talking about it... |
God, that setlist makes me want to jump on the next plane to Japan.
|
I'm pretty sure it was the fact that you called the songs "trash" which has upset people, myself included. Some of Ayu's stuff has seemed lackluster or commonplace to me, but I would never consider any of her works to be "trash".
And like I said, its not just you. Definitely not just you. :no |
ughhh how about just dropping it, the trout pout **** is pretty annoying though, I agree rofl
|
It's been such a long time and we still don't have any audio recordings? I almost hate that Japanese are too afraid or obedient to make any while the rest of the world has no problem doing it...
|
I'm so excited going to Saitama :) the setlist is pretty good..can't wait to watch it, anyone goes for Saitama's show?
|
^
they are always like that, they are there to enjoy the singing and performance. guess that probably because they always get to attend ayu's/any artists' concerts so they feel not the need to record everything, moreover there'll be DVD released after that. |
best setlist of this tour ever!!
omg BRILLANTE *¬* |

wow Timmy sang with ayu in a lot of songs..cool..
can't wait to see! Timmy could become a new background vocal for ayu haha XDD |
yeaah the setlist is amazing! I can only imagine how I could enjoy it if I attended ~.~

Quote:
Well, I'm all for not touching those subjets too, they are also very repetitive... :P Still, they are mostly being discussed on threads focused on them, while u keep repeating how much u hate FIVE on every thread that has the album's name on it... Really, u bring it even tho the tour thread. U r complaining about this even BEFORE the album was released. @_____________@ |
I recall saying that I was going to keep an open mind about FIVE before it was released and avoid listening to the songs. I brought up the songs in this thread because I mentioned how I hoped they would be sung in the final leg of the tour... and this is a thread discussing the tour, is it not?
I don't really even care, this has become a bigger issue than it was meant to be. Don't take my words or anyone else's so seriously people - I'm not calling Ayu herself trash so get past it. It's just the way I talk - I exaggerate for humor and for my expression. Like I already said, Ayu only wrote the lyrics for these songs which I am not criticizing one bit. :rolleyes Y'all are so dull. |
^ Dude, it's because it's just you and if other people are bringing this up, it should be a huge sign for you to realise if people actually are getting annoyed with you in particular, then maybe you're expressing your opinion a little too much. You're not the only one who finds FIVE a disappointment, but yet here you are getting singled out. Maybe it's time you step down the "songs are trash" one man parade and realise your opinion has been heard, loud and clear.
Plus, it's awesome you find humour in stuff like that, but obviously most people are taking offence are your 'jokes' here and you should take that into consideration too. No one is saying your opinion doesn't matter, just that maybe you're shoving it into peoples faces too much. |
I went to the 10/1 show in Osaka and it was EPICALLY AMAZING!!! This was my first time attending one of Ayu’s concerts, and it was one of the best experiences I’ve ever had!!!! The fact that I saw her live still gives me chills.
The set list was the same as the 9/30 show. Here’s my review of the show, I won’t include any of the interludes because I don’t really remember them that much..I'll put it in a spoiler because it's kind of long. Spoiler:
I love this concert so much! Ayu’s vocals were consistently amazing, the set list was fantastic, and I really liked all of the costumes she wore. The center arena stage worked perfectly for the concert, and I had a great seat on top of that. Ayu honestly looked like she was having an amazing time performing, and every time she smiled it looked so pure and happy that I felt all warm inside and couldn’t help but smile as well. Oh and about Timmy being featured in several songs. After the performance of BRILLANT Timmy changed into a different outfit, and joined Peco and Princess as a chorus singer. But honestly Ayu’s microphone was so loud that I couldn’t even hear the chorus singers at all. Like I forgot that they were there throughout the entire concert. If I think of anything else I'll be sure to add it into the post! |
Awesome review!
I wish I could see it. And regarding audio recordings, we only ever really get them via sneaky people at Hello!Project concerts who tap into the mic system somehow and get direct-from-mixing-board sound, lol. |
Thanks for this awesome review! Makes me wish Ayu to keep all this songs in tracklist
|
Your report is great!! Timmy in Peco-style's outfit :laugh oooh I can't wait for DVD now to see it *.*
|
Thank you for the report.
Looks like Ayu did it again, another brilliant concert. Glad Ayu's voice sounded great :) |
Thank you for the review!
I want the blu-ray, NOW lol. |
Quote:
I will admit I am very strong in my opinions, yes. But I think of how much I love Ayu, just like everyone else. I draw her symbol on every document I get. I praise her up and down to everyone around me. I constantly speak highly of her in my daily life. I thank God every single night, since I saw her in 2008, for allowing me to come across the most amazing seats when I attended her concert and for giving me that chance - not one night do I not express my gratitude in my prayers saying "Thank you Lord for my experience in Japan for the most amazing concert seats ever." I have true love for Ayu and respect her as an artist and as a person, so when I give honest opinion about something that is not my favorite and I come off as ungrateful I just find that ridiculous. Forgive me. |
Maybe if you stopped calling something with nothing objectively bad about it "trash" it wouldn't come off as ridiculous...how about saying that you don't like it? Oh wait...I forgot, you do not posess the ability to phrase your opinions as opinions.
|
Quote:
Your posts come across as you wanting to stir drama. In the future, no matter what your opinion - positive, negative, neutral - just try and phrase it so other people don't feel they have to defend their opinion. Calling her songs trash made others feel like they had to defend liking them. That isn't a good discussion starter to me. Calling them crybabies when apparently apologing isn't a good call either. I'm going to end this here, but I hope you see what I'm trying to say - all opinions are obviously accepted here, but how they are worded makes the biggest difference in the world. |
Quote:
I won't apologize because it would be a false apology. I do not like those songs compared to everything else she has released and if it weren't for Ayu, I'd never had paid second attention to them. I will end this here, but I wasn't trying to stir up drama or become "that person" in this discussion thread. I understand the conscious thought to word things a certain way, but I prefer to put things bluntly. |

And nobody is saying that you hate ayu, that you should love FIVE or whatever.... people are just saying that EVERYBODY ALREADY KNOW U DISLIKE THOSE SONGS! Nobody else but you still is discussing their liking or disliking for the tracks. It's not if u like or dislike it, nobody gives a damn about it, it's about repeating it ALL THE TIME and acting like those songs are universally seen as bad. God... ~~' |
Quote:
I wish I could have gone! It sounds incredible, and like it's oosting (that's a word now) itself up a little bit out of ultra-simplicity as time goes on, but if the emphasis on the music remains, that sounds appropriate to me. :) |
GREAT REVIEW!! im totally excited already.
i believe why Thank U was used to end the concert was because something is coming up soon?? :P |
Let's just end the war on opinions here, guys. If you don't like something, state it once unless asked to clarify, and move on. A lot can be solved by just maintaining your distance.

I wonder if the LIMITED EDITION shows are gonna be reaaalllllly different or not. |
The concert sounds like its getting worse as it goes on :( I'm sure it is still an amazing concert, but the concept seems to be getting weaker and weaker.
|
Taru86, thanks a lot for ur review.
it seems extremely fun! wanna hear BRILLANTE live so BADDDDD~~~ and Vogue, some said it's bossanova version, omg..i can imagine how it sounds already~ |

I do agree with your comment about the "concept getting weaker and weaker," though. |

O.M.G. :thud
Just... forget about everything LOL Move on or bring it to the trash can kkthx. |

It doesn't matter if it's forbidden to record or not. I attended 4 concerts of Mylene Farmer in 2009 both in Russia and in France and managed to make audio recordings of 2 of them, though it was strictly forbidden to record. And lots of people did record as well. My mp3 player was kept in my pocket and I just enjoyed the concert without paying attention to the recording. Now I have something to remember. |
The review sounds so epic with beloved and BRILLANTE!! I wanna see them in DVD so bad @_@
|
Taru86, thank you for the long review!! :) BRILLANTE sounds awesome and I am so happy she does the "ありがとうございました" without mic at the end. I just love this moment, it always makes me tear up a bit when I watch DVDs.

Sometimes the wars on this forum are so weird... :thud
Well, anyway, I hope we get pictures soon because I'm very curious about those. Not sure anymore I'm going to love that Days performance though. :< |
|
^I love everything *O*
|
omfg... same. I love everything xD
|
I love the dresses for walking proud/part of Me/beloved and BRILLANTE. The others aren't bad but I am not really fond of them.
Thanks for posting indyplus! |
Oh wow!! She looks gorgeous in all outfits!!! :luv2
|
OMG, I love the red dress and the long, balletic one with all the tulle! How lovely!
I have to say, though, from this alone, I don't think I would necessarily condemn the concert's movement away from its theme. Or rather, I wouldn't necessarily say that this is true. It is evolving, but I think it is doing so in a way that is evolving with the country's feelings. It's still not the obscenely gaudy spectacle we're used to, but it has some fun and life and entertainment for people to enjoy. Perhaps it's just my opinion, but I feel that the initial incarnation of POM was appropriate for the time it appeared, and this version, too, I think is likewise appropriate for the moment. |
Power of Music...I think this concept isn't about to keep things clean all the way..I think it's more about a progress of moving forward with Japan together after the 311 Disaster.
So far I can't see any inconsistent.... I love this FINAL Chapter..Obviously Ayu is moving forward to make the concert become more colorful and entertaining...so as Japan... |
nice outfits!
it seems like Tim touches ayu's breast? :thud |

Mh, I like the outfits. But I really liked the simple consept of POM, so I don't know if those costumes really fit the consept.

love the outfits!!!

Ayu looks gorgeous in those outfits! the pink tutu dress and the white fluffy dress <3
hey i wonder when whe she gets bored with that open side pant xDDD |
Like she said in a recent interview:

Quote:
PoM is having an evolution, just like Japan. The situation isn't the same than a few months ago, and that's the reason why her concert must change too. That doesn't mean that the initial concept is lost, more like the opposite; the own concept is evolving! That's what I think about these new changes. |
thanks for sharing the link to POM costumes PICS..
OMG...gorgeousssssss.. all are so beautiful!! my favorite is the gold gown! |
I really like the costumes, but somehow she looks older then normal
|
I hope we get ayupans of the new outfits when the DVD is released... :luv2
|
i love all the outfits =) cant wait for the dvd
|
LOVE THE PANTS!!
and the golden dresses.. and the red one AHHHH yes the tour is all about progress..its as though her entire 2011 was made to follow that idea. i think her hair just needs better styling heh..her short hair worked for CDL0607..so haha. |
Quote:
For the first time I love every outfit of her. But omg.. who is touching Ayu's breast? :laugh. |
Ayu looks amazing, this is turning out to be such a wonderful concert. I'm intrigued to see what will be available in the DVD/BD when it comes out.
|
That long dress ist really beautiful. I'm glad, she wears other clothes, than that dress, she weared the whole tour. It was not really nice.
But the costumes now are really greate! |
Outfits are so good *_*
|
Her outfits 're amazing! especially the white one!

Now, is it just me, or does her hair look similar to Ai Takahashi's...? |
She really loves her high boots this time around. The only outfits without them...are the ones where you can't see her feet so she's probably wearing boots in them, too.
|
She gives me concert tour 2000 vibes in some of these.
