I want this to be easy to find, so I'm sticking it here in a new thread... hope that's okay with some of you.

Anyways, I REALLY like the logo this year. It's like... on the same level as BEST of COUNTDOWN LIVE's logo for me with the feel of CDL04-05's design. Hopefully the goods are great too!

Interesting ^^ Still nothing beats the NEXT LEVEL logo (it looked damn tasty) XD

That logo is really coolish. I like it.

COOL LOGO!! :yes looks kinda gothic if you ask me.. :P

really cool logo, it took me a second to figure the letters out though xD

it's interesting.. i don't really love it but it's not bad.

I like it :D

I'm sorry but that logo looks awful, it's such a mess. :s

took me like 10 minutes to read it

i like it :yes
it's pretty cool, but hard to read :laugh

It looks bad...it took me a few secs to figure out dat it's actually written "countdown live" :(

It's pretty cool. In the word 'live' though they should've made the 'L' stylized and not the 'E.' It makes it look as if the abbreviation should be CDE and not CDL. :laugh

Seeing this logo... Its making me think it is going to have something to do with classical instruments. I'm beginning to believe it may be her more recent songs performed with a live orchestra or something? How amazing... :luv2

Mhm, I don't really like the logo (it's a mess), but I'm looking forward to the goodies anyway. Maybe it will look better on them! ^.^''

hard to read but its really creative

The design symmetry is probably whatever they were going for and not any sort of abbreviation [they rarely ever focus on the C D L aspect] ... imo, it's executed a little strangely since C and D are stylized on one side and then E is alone on the other. They probably could've just made T stylized as well and it'd have worked just as well, but it still looks good!

After having so many CDLs, I think people would know that this says COUNTDOWN LIVE, haha.

It looks like the logo of some metal band I LOVE IT!

I don't like it a lot :( not the big letters and so, but the type of letters... this gothic style... I don't like it a lot... reminds me of CDL 04-05 or some of these...

and... while looking at it... I see the C-D-E forming a heart... do someone see it too?? XDD

thanks for posting!

I thought of a heart too, but they look more like the shape of... a bust? [The way hearts are drawn nowadays is said to be inspired by a woman's bust, haha.]

Mostly because of how they curve to the side though.

Ooo! I just realized that this could be the first live DVD in a while [since CDL04-05?] to have an alternate logo on the back...

the heart/wings look really messy although it's really beautiful

what do you mean?

A bit messy to read XD even if of course it's for Countdown live. The gothic font is a nice choice, does it let presage something classical or ... ? A bit of change would be nice !

And yeah agree could be a metal band logo or a gothic band or such ( no not MM, but a real gothic band )

COOL!!! yea took me a while too hahaha...but AWESOME :P

Really interesting logo, different than what I usually expect from Ayu

it looks kind of messy, but it's different and cool. :) i'm glad she's experimenting more and more with her music and performances.

Oo I like it now that I realized what it says. :laugh (somehow it didn't cross my mind it would say "countdown live"....) I wonder if they'll do it in different colours, when it'll probably be way easier to read. I agree with those who love the gotchic/"metal band" style :P

CDL04-05's DVD had that gothic-y font on the DVD and on the back above the tracklist, and the design this time around seems special enough for them to stick it there, imo. BoCDL06-07 might've had the same treatment had it not ended up as an A BEST 2 extra...

[CDL05-06's Star Wars-y design seemed more like something that went with the T-shirts than anything since Team Message had that ST(A)R thing going on...]

The logo is a little bit messy for me and somewhat refreshing in terms of designing.
I think the C-D-E was too big tbh :( and it was too bold.

wow....
so geometrical...^^
or symetrical..??

Umm, i dont really like the logo. xD
But it's unique.

Mmm..interesting. can't wait for the goodies! :)

OMG the logo is so cool!!!! But i dont think its kinda obvious what's the words on the logo..

anyway, its kinda cool that ayu didnt use any fanciful shapes like "heart" for PCDL and "star" for AT09, which would have made it look kinda kiddish. It's pure words... :)

Intresting.
I like the gothic font they use, but I can't read it at all.
It's too messy. Nice, but it could have been better (to read).

This is the first time I have ever said anything like this about anything Ayu... But that logo is just not good. It's extremely messy and hard to read. =(

I like it! I like the scripty font :) Can't wait to see the goods!! Maybe they will have a kind of lacey/gothic theme lol

How very "metal" of Ayu to pull out that logo. But Im not mad at it.

from far it looked like bones to me....i cant figure out whats the logo depicting until reading ppl saying its countdown live...
AT 09 still the best for me

The logo is quite strange because it is actually hard to read. :) I does give me a "classical" feel though, so will we be getting orchestral arrangements?

thats random that they enlarged the E letter but i guess they had to in order for it to look symmetrical on both sides. i wouldve preferred the L to be bigger too. but i actually like it. hmm wonder what the tour items will look like

oh and her A symbol is the original! yay:)

KIND OF similar to : http://img215.imageshack.us/img215/904/cdl2.jpg

Logo looks cool! I like it. ;)

It's not my favourite, but I love how different it is, especially from the last logo. It looks very...intense, hah. The only thing is, it is kinda oddly designed, which makes it harder to read, like Neme said. Meh.

It's really original!
thanks for sharing I like it!

Ehhhh... The concept is better than the execution. Not a great logo :no.

I think it's terrible! You can't even read it, it's unbalanced, and kind if ugly. Plus I'd rather see a new A design instead of some goth looking letters sitting on top of the A.

well it does look cool (kinda classy and cool at the same time) and different compared to her previous logos...but it kinda took me a while to see the D attached to the C.

Um wow, yeah, that took me a minute to decipher. It's... kinda messy and hard to read.

I think it's a really nice logo! although it's a really tiny release of the logo [reason why it's so unreadable!!]

I don't like the logo, it's boring, and it can't beat NEXT LEVEL's logo, that one is so pretty :)

I get that the "COUNT" part might be a bit hard to read due to the C/D overlap, but is it really that difficult for people to read the other parts of the logo? I guess legibility took a backseat to a funky design element this time around... [anything to get away from Impact, imo haha... unless it was like ugly script/cursive in all caps, then Impact it is!]

It's too messy, I don't like it :no. It's unique but too weird for me.

I agree.

THe logo is so unique! I really like it!

it look unique but I agree it such a mess, I only notice own and liv before realized it actually for Count Down Live, and then bolding the letter CD and suddenly E make it look unbalanced imo.

I don't like it.. looks kinda awful :no

I like it ~~ it looks so classic but perhaps I'd like to see it with other combined colors (blue + red?)

looks great :yes
tnx for sharing :D

I made a QUICK enlargement of it with a very similar font called Dearest [i had nothing better to do...], but if you like to collect logos or something, i wouldn't save this until the real logo is out..

^ Good job. It looks better up close lol

Now when it's bigger, I see how ugly and black that font is D: what were they thinking?

the logo doesn't seem to connect with this 'future classics' thing >.<
it should be towards future rock!
or perhaps they should add more colours to it XD

the logo is ultra cool~ and thanks for the larger version :)

Wow that's like one of her messiest logos ever. For one thing, countdown is one word, I don't know when they're ever gonna learn that. It's also set up as if they wanted it to be symmetrical, yet they have 2 huge letters on the one side and only one on the other.

I see the idea but it's probably one of the worst, if not the worst, executed logos she's had. :(

We have the same idea at the same time xDD

^oooh your's seems much more accurate..
what font did you use? for the numbers? and squiggly lines? or did u do everything by hand O.o

i was too lazy so i only used one font for everything

I think the numbers font was Medici Text or something like that, if with squiggly lines you mean this [~] it is one on top of other.

Ohh haha thanks, i noticed the squiggly lines were on top of each other right after i posted the question.

JackieRos: the link posted by Raelian should be transparent.

I don't like it one bit. :no

Ugly xD VERY ugly! Her ugliest logo since at02 xDDD

.

Oh no, the more I look at it, the less I like it.... --I need to stop looking at it now. D:

I like it. It´s really messy, but I like it. XD

As a logo it completely fails. You can't read it! Isn't that the purpose of the logo? To inform? Fail.

Even as something "artsy" it fails. I'm sure there must have been dozens of better logos they could have used.

I think it looks good...Haha, at first I didnt even realize that there were any other text than "A ~Future Classics~( It is a bit hard to make out what it says ^_^', still I feel a bit stupid for not noticing what it said).

Though, I'm i bit confused by what ~Future classics~ means, at first I thought that Ayu would be trying to pass of some of her newer songs as classics, but now i'm unsure bout what she ment... I hope she at least sings some of her older songs, even though I like her newer works too.

at first i thought it looked really awkward, but i'm warming up to it.

i think it would be better if the C,D and L is in colour like the A logo in Next Level tour.
at least we can see the differences.

Well... It's something different lol.

The logo looks cool, but I completely agree with this

It seems

csount
oion
live <- lol the only one

btw it's ok for me, a little bit messy LOL but it's ok :shrug

nice but not the best logo, kind of like the style of badboy logo :D

I agree with you! It looks really gothic!!!!

I hope she will wear some outfits like Namie in Fast Car Pv... I love them!!!:love

thanks for this bigger logo ^^
but I still dislike it D: the font is just :tipsy not the best.

but... i hope i'm not seeing things, but don't those two giant letters make hearts? LOL

I think they could have done better with the Count Down Live part but this logo makes me curious as to how the concert is going to be. As does the name "future classics." I'm kind of wondering if Ayu is going to showcase some new material perhaps? Or if the concert is just going to have a futuristic theme?

woah... thats really really good, is she going for a rock theme?

seems easy to read to me
it says countdown live ^^
maybe its me though, my sister also found it difficult to read as well

Mmm, hard to read indeed.

Ah, it hurts my eyes when I look at it :dead2

i like it :) it took me like a minute or two to figure out what the CD and E were haha. but i like it.

I didn't understand the logo for the first time I read it, it's confuse, but I liked it, pretty modern

It's certainly cool looking, but it's completely unreadable. XD For readability, blackletter fonts should always be avoided. I don't like blackletter at all unless it's only being used for ONE letter. MAYBE two, in a very simple logo.

This.... is not good. lol

Her logos hardly ever reflect what the concert is gonna be like, so I wouldn't use it as a clue. CDL04-05 had this blackletter font too and it was hardly rock'n'roll, lol.

The font choice is cool, but I really REALLY don't like how they designed this logo. It's so awkward. :no

looks like a tattoo to me...

thats kinda hard to read but looks cool :D
my dad saw that earlier n he was like 'so ur a fan of a rock band now?' XD

i dont see any. even if there is, i dont regard them as hearts.

@Raelian and L1aRx

Thanks for the logo!!!
But it seems so hard to read the COUNTDOWN LIVE! >_<"
