As shown below, the start time of each premiere is different, and by the time it reaches 24:00, all 17 videos will be aired with ayu counting down, so please do not miss it. Please welcome the New Year's Eve with your favorite year's live performance.

Please note that due to the circumstances of the distribution system, there may be some discrepancies between the exact timing of 24 o'clock and the video.

It's gonna be the first time we will have access to the whole CDL 16-17 in a good quality and not the one broadcasted on TV, right?

That's EVERYTHINGGGGGG!! my new year's eve is gonna be amazing

Yes indeed! The whole thing is a lovely gift <3

omg thanks ayu for this! this is kinda huge

I just saw the TA Mail! I'm so excited, I don't know which one to watch first lmao

May as well start with the first one and see if I can get through them all before I return to work!!

This is such an overload. WHICH ONE DO I WATCH?

This is so sweet! I had been planning to watch a previous CDL! If there's one good thing to come out of this, then it's the fact that we might be get the full proper edit of the JTB CDL! I've always liked that one (even with raspy vocals), so this makes me really happy! :heart The edit will elevate the show a lot, I'm sure of that. The same happened with JTB1. I hope someone downloads it.

I'm so happy and grateful they're doing this!

excited for the Just the beginning CDL! I hope it is indeed the edited version (visually and vocally).

the list is still missing the 2018–2019 CDL though—or was that not considered an official CDL (kind of like ARENA TOUR 2003–2004)?

^I think that's also the only CDL where they don't have a finished edit. IIRC they used the WOWOW rebroadcast for the commentary video.

Was there ever a CDL17-18?

I hope she eventually releases CDL03-04 as well...

^There was a show on NYE 17-18 but it ended before midnight and was just a part of the JTB tour.

Also, I don't see a need for a CDL03-04 release. CDL03-04 was basically just the first two dates of AT03-04, that's why it's called AT03-04. There were hardly enough differences to make a separate release of CDL03-04 worth it. According to the following thread they broadcast a few songs, including the countdown, on CDTV.

http://www.ahsforum.com/forum/showthread.php?t=54170

It had a bit different setlist so it would have been nice to get it.

ah OK, thanks!

the entire Jtb–TROUBLE multi-year tour is weird to me in this respect; they seem to go all out to hold concerts after concerts without thinking of releasing them for home viewing.

Wow I only asked for the first one, but they went all in! It doesn't say if will still be available outside the youtube premier, right?

I think it was mainly about ayu wanting to perform a lot and giving fans from all places (in Japan) the chance to see her.

They did release two of the three JTB chapters, we got a live stream and rebroadcast (2 Nao songs got cut) of TROUBLE CDL (which was representative for the 2018-19 tour) and there's going to be the Saigo no Trouble DVD.
So while not all of the shows have been released, all but JTB2 and Trouble -misunderstood- have been available in some way shape or form. And now we'll get the JTB CDL edit, as well!

Out of 6 different shows (3 JTB chapters, 3 Trouble chapters) we got to see 4, of which 3 are official releases while the remaining one was shown almost entirely on TV.
I would've loved to see the other two shows (they interested me more than JTB3 or the first Trouble tour) but we still got to see quite a lot, so I'm okay with what we have. I think it's a bit more than some people may realize.

One also has to consider that they broadcast PoM18 + TA16 in Sept. 2018, followed by the release of A^3 (2019) and CDL19-20 (2020). That's a lot of concerts – 8 broadcasts/releases from 2018 to 2020 (9 if you include Natsu no Trouble).

I'm just glad Saigo no Trouble is going to be released on DVD, it's definitely my favourite out of all the JTB/Trouble concerts.

This turned out a lot longer than expected, sorry. :eek

PLLLLEEEEASE someone record CDL16-17!!! :luv2

^I hope they leave it up for a few hours, so that someone can download the file.

All my hopes are towards CDL 16-17, I really hope it's their edit version!

It's really sweet for them to do this. We got so many things from Ayu this year and this seems like a very nice present to end this year where so many have suffered.

Looking forward to it!

^I'm pretty certain they will use their edit.

COUNTDOWN LIVE 2016-2017 A 『Just the beginning -20-』setlist posted under Youtube video includes all songs, nothing seems to be cut. Also since this is not a live stream, but premiere, it will be possible to download without problems I think.
It's funny to remember that I was listening to the show outside the venue.

Noticed in the Youtube description that they're only up for 1 day: 【期間限定公開】2021年1月1日23:59まで

Seems like we'll be able to rip the streams safely but it's a small window.

what songs were cut in the WOWOW version? I don´t remember xD

Nothing was cut, it was broadcasted live on the night IIRC. Maybe something was cut from the re-broadcast?

Ah, thank you! Still, more than enough time.

The whole cutesy section.

Yea, the cutesy section was cut from the re-broadcast, the live version included all songs. :)


I think it was broadcast by M-ON, though. Doesn't really matter, of course.

Awww it's so nice of Avex to upload all these! Think I'm going to watch CDL 16-17

ah so it´s just that we don´t have that section edited, I thought we miss a whole set of songs xD And yes it was m-on, I messed it up with Trouble CDL that was re-broadcasted on WOWOW ><

Yea, we already have the whole concert. We're all just excited to get a properly edited version of it. xD

I am desperate for a version of CDL16-17 that's under 4gigs, I only have the 10gig version.

I’m thinking of watching one of the concerts from 2009-2012 since I’ve never watched those :o Which one do you guys recommend?

^I love them all but I recommend CDL11-12, it has a great setlist!

^^If 2012 still includes 2012-2013 for you, then I'd definitely recommend Wake Up – it's one of my all-time favourites! If not, then I agree with CDL11-12. :)

(I also think CDL10-11 is very fun)

Yes, 2012-2013 is included!! Funny, CDL 11-12 and 12-13 were the two I was leaning towards also :) thanks guys!

Enjoy! They are fantastic shows :heart

I can´t decide either xD But I tend to 02-03

I'm definitely going to watch CDL16-17, since I haven't seen that edit yet and I really like the show (even with its flaws).

OMG CDL16-17 quality just 480p resolution

The stream has an atrocious quality at the moment omg. Other concerts run at 1080p but this and CDL19-20 are only... 480p? Wtf

Looks like the highest quality for 2016-2017 is 480p. Too bad :/

I was ready to watch it on my TV but this is... bad. I hope it converts to 1080p once the upload is done.

Maybe its on purpose so people wouldn't rip it? As it's an unreleased concert...

Can't wait to watch Best of CDL tonight <3

I am watchinh cdl 16-17, although it's not hd, the cute section is very fun

^^Promised Land got released and it's only 480p too.

I really hope this will get converted to HD! The editing is so good and I still think the show is awesome! Her voice is hoarse but it sounds decent enough for me and I prefer it a lot over the heavy autotune. They really went all out with this show. :heart

It's the first time we are having access of a full HD of the edited version of CDL 11-12, 'cause it was released only on DVD, not Blu-ray. Hope someone rip it.

EDIT: same for BEST of CDL 06-07

the older CDLs are also only in 480

Aww what a shame about the quality - I love that performance of kanariya.

It's quite inconsistent, some of them which were recorded in HD are low quality (like 2005-2006), but in other cases it's the HD version (2006-2007).

We can only hope that it's a converting issue with YouTube, although I don't want to get my hopes up. It's all a bit messy.

I'm grateful they're doing this and also that they chose to include CDL16-17 but it'd be a shame if we get stuck with a low quality version of it.

Cfl 16 17 is unreleased concert and cdl 19 20 has just released this year. Not having HD version is understandable

When they uploaded those shows during that period of quarantine, CDL 05-06 was available only in 480p ('cause it wasn't released in Blu-ray). There were a few exceptions, like AT05, that was never released in Blu-ray and it was in 1080p on YouTube lol

As far as I understand premiere videos are uploaded to YouTube in advance, so processing has finished long time ago, so we won't get higher quality.

That's what I thought, I had hoped to be proven wrong, though. Well, that's just how it is then. :/

Sounds like something they'd do. It's a shame since it doesn't seem like they will ever do anything with this show. I wish they had at least chosen 720p tho.

Promised Land is the most-watched CDL with 4k viewers. Roughly 3-4k more than the others.

Only caught MW and Voyage, but she sounds OK with editing.

Some concerts already ended and the quality is the same, so don't expect better quality for 2016-2017.

watching CDL 2016–2017 right now and I'm reminded that the only thing I love about this show is kanariya :laugh

can't get over how much I loathe that hairdo on her, not to mention how extremely tired her vocal sounded.

all in all, still grateful I finally get to see this show. hope somebody made a rip soon! :)

I decided to watch the CDL 2016-2017 and OMG, I realized that, for some reason I don't know, I have never watched this concert, only the Kanarya and M performances. And I am LOVING IT. Her energy is fire here, and its so good to see the whole band there!

After this I will play Best Of CDL <3

oh my goodness I'm watching CDL 2011–2012 right now and it's available in 1080p!

I sure hope someone made a downloadable rip of this because it's such a great show. the do it again performance still gives me goosebumps. such a great dramatic opening :luv2

Happy New Year!!! I watched CDL 2013-2014 for for the first time.
Timed it so I would actually countdown with the concert which was lovely. I watched it on Bluray since I bought it last year- since then its been uploaded for free to youtube twice LOL. Loved the show. It was so refreshing to see Ayu's gorgeous expressive eyes without contacts (sorry I know I always complain about that haha). And the male dancers at the beginning in those robotic suits :love

I was watching 2012-2013 and my husband watched a bit with me. He didn't know what year it was but said "this is definitely 2012....it's the dubstep" lmao

edit: I realised today I still had a tab open with the videos when they were up. Not sure if anyone got a screenshot of them just before they went down but the views are really amazing for 24 hours...at least 445k and they still had 4ish hours left on the clock.
