After that though, at A-Nation 07, I was pretty certain that she lip synched 1 Love and Until that Day. And during AT 08, I still think that Marionette and Don't Leave Me Alone were lipsynched as well. (it should be obvious just watching the news clip that Marionette is lip synched.) She is wearing a head set mic so you should at least hear breath sounds (which get edited out on the dvd), but you hear none plus it is basically physically impossible to jerk your torso around that much through out the entire song and not have it show in your voice at all.
Also there is the infamous time from CDL 05/06 when during Theme of A-Nation on the tv broadcast there is a close up of her face where it is pretty clear she is mouthing the wrong word and a different sound is coming out. (and Theme of A-Nation is certainly a song you would think she wouldn't have to lip synch)
I think we, as fans often just can't look at this subject objectively because we so badly want her to be singing live all of the time and it clouds our judgment about the likely reality. I think it's ok that she occasionally lip syncs, but it does suck that it seems to be happening more than before. I'd rather hear Ayu sound kinda bad than not real.
Like I said before though, this particular performance of GD is up in the air and we can't judge fully unless we see the whole thing. But, I also think that it is certain she has indeed occasionally lip synched before. |
Sorry?? IMO Marionette is REALLY not lipsynched. Just look at her mouth, the sound and listen to the vocals! It's soo live. If it was lip synched, at least she could make it sound better like when she lip synched 1 LOVE or evolution.
Nor is (don't) Leave me alone lip synched, in that particular news clip fragment. Plus, AT08 is the first concert since AT06 with evolution live. I think with this concert she didn't want to lip synch.
I wouldn't be surprised if decision was lip synched, though. She tends to do lip synching with her sexy dance songs.
Plus what's the big deal with lip synching anyway? It's like those things that you don't know for sure, so people keep guessing and guessing because they NEED to know, like human nature. But seriously as long as you don't notice it, how can it annoy you? You'd only become paranoid with every song, and end up with the conclusion that she only sings MUSIC STATION perfs live.
