Ayumi at A-Nation '07 Videos

[~*Mabushii*~]

she seems on the verge of needing to pass out during talkin' 2 myself.. and you can hear Peco too much and that makes it sound pretty wickedly bad..

but it makes me feel better when I kind of struggle through singing that part of talkin' 2 myself with the craptastic "instrumental" i made.. heh as terrible as it sounds actually..

WAIT A SECOND!!!
is it RAINING on stage for fated??? o.O I SWEAR thats what it looks like imo?

wth?? my comment disappeared
you can here peco too much..
altho you can tell she is having trouble with talkin' 2 myself..
which is okay, it's a rather hard song to do (I've tried a lot! LOL)

she sounds fine in the rest

Is it raining on stage for fated?? because I SWEAR thats what it looks like? like it was raining in the vid.. hmm

I see both of your comments!

I know it was raining during one of her performances, yes, but I don't know if it's the ones that are in those videos.

And as for what everyone else has been saying... Yeah, it's called it's SUMMER and it's really freakin' hot in Japan during summer (and very humid, which makes it worse than just dry heat), so that's why she's sweating so profusely. Not to mention all the jumping around she does HAS to wear her out and since it's so freakin' hot, it wears her out quicker.

As for her vocals, yeah, they weren't too hot sounding, but again, I think a lot of that can be contributed to the heat and her dancing/bouncing around. I'm sure she'll sound better on the DVD version, though I don't know how much they can improve that.

You can definitely feel the energy she's bringing to the performance through those videos though.

thanks for the vids
nice to see Ayu performing talkin' 2 myself
although her vocals weren't the best

[HiruNoKaze]

No rain during the last two performances in Tokyo! How do I know, you ask? Well I was there! ;P

Like I said, she did't sound like that from where I was, but nevertheless, I'm sure a majority would be impressed at the Monochrome performance. It was solid. Yea it was hot, but I have a feeling it didn't give her much trouble at all. Actually there was a nice breeze now and then. All the performers seemed fine with the weather.

[Chibi_Venus]

Thank you very much!

I was upset about them not showing monochrome, but I was immediately happy again when I heard and saw July 1st. I know that it's always sung every year, but for me to hear it every year filled with heart and soul and warmth just touches my heart.

Ohhh thanks.

Same thoughts here.

Thanks for the clips! She looks so nice... and she needs to take more sun.

[tehxiinae]

yeah...her voice is really low and choppy lately...i don't like it as much as her voice used to be but...her hair looks puffy in talkin 2 myself, but flat in fated, and then alright in boys & girls and July 1st...hmmm...hope the rest of the vocal performances in the songs sound better than these few clips...probably will....

[pinapnut]

Thanks! Ayu looks great, but it sounds like she's trying to hard with the vocals.

[Surreal]

gah @ her voice and hair.

Awesomeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee awesome awesome. Thank you so much for posting these =D

I didn't realize what a-nation was 'til like, two seconds ago (knew it was a concert, knew several acts were strung together, but I was flabbergasted where the "a" part came from [... don't ask]) and I think it's really cool that avex artists all jam together like that: it just seems really.. sweet, somehow. Much more effective than crappy American Idol tours here in the States.

I don't think her voice sounds bad at all. In any of those songs or performances. Wow. Was I watching a different video than everyone else? It's not polished, obviously, but it's not bad, either.

"fated" she seems like she's almost bursting with emotion or passion.. it's almost too much to watch, and it was only a few seconds! "July 1st" is adorable, absolutely adorable. I love how bouncy and happy she looks. "glitter" her voice is still solid -- seriously guys, wtf? She doesn't sound like she's scraping her voice against sandpaper or whatever the equivalent of "bad" means for this lady.

Before I knew that A-Nation meant "Avex" I thought it meant "Asian Nation!"
