Ha, as fans, there are too many things that are too subjective... like vocals, etc. What sounds good to me, may be lipped/playback to you. Similarly, the vice-versa holds true. And even to an extent where a performance may sound good to me, might just be total crap to you.

There are few people who can sing live perfectly... and Ayu is definitely not one of them lol. I already said this a long time ago; it appears she wants to focus more on the aesthetics and 'entertainment' side of her tours nowadays. Like you know, give the audience a very beautiful visual effect?

I can't hear anything from that 4 sec clip of NEXT LEVEL, but if someone else can, and said it's bad, then it's not like I can do anything to stop him/her from saying that. Vocals, ARE, an extremely subjective thing imo.

@emiko: Lol, dog crap is subjective too (wtf, I know)... but I doubt she would even want to release such music. I wouldn't say we have any excuse now to say her live vocals don't matter anymore... but she's not the group of people who can sing live perfectly... so I'm not expecting studio quality or like "whoa" quality (if I do, then hmm...). Obviously I don't expect her to sing like my friend who's off-tune in every note, but I can live with a few off-tune notes lol.
