Interesting. I think more videos should please people who have been dying for more of those in her tours lately. It'll probably translate better in the DVD/Blu-ray.

I feel like there isn't really meant to be a 'wow' moment in this concert. Like previous tours, she seems to have toned down on that since 2008 onward.

2009 - she had a seat that she sat on at the end that floated in the air
2010 - chair in the beginning, champagne glasses, "flower petal" rain + LED rain, interactions with the amazing screen
2011 - stripped down concert for the most part until LIMITED EDITION, 360 degree stage
2012 - light up dress, sitting in an airborne chair, beds that rotate, doors that are reminiscent of the 'hotel rooms', lowered down from the sky like an elevator

IMO though, this tour is probably her most cohesive from what I've heard compared to her last few tours. Maybe on par with POWER of MUSIC?
