I was telling him that I was really excited for this show because it would probably be an all ROCK setlist. And he was like "Yeah, yeah! I really want to hear Last Angel!!" I would never imagine classifying Last Angel as a rock song, lol.
That definition of Rock would make much sense with the way Ayumi talked about RnRC, you know, the "I sing the song with a feeling in mind and so it's transformed into rock". The subject matter and desperation of Last Angel is truly powerful, so for that I guess it would fit.
