It very well could be live, but it reminded me of ANGEL'S SONG when she lipped that. It sounded great, but was clearly lipped.
She was singing the song softly and controlled, her movements fit. Maybe you just sing the song another way but when I sing it it's similar technique and I personally don't find it to be hard. It's well in her range with the high notes supported by a vibrato, easier than many of the other songs she sang in the concert.
I've seen more than enough playback, especially from Ayumi, and I'm amongst the first to point it out(stuff like CAROLS at AT05...did people seriously believe that was live? Her mouth was so disconnected, the sound was clearly recorded by a different type of microphone. It was either playback or overdubbed.) and really, this was not it. I think she could have done better on the song and had she sung playback she would have. Her movements were very controlled(and possibly seemed off to you) because her breathing, posture and support needed to be controlled to achieve the right dynamics.
