Dear Japan:

Call me when you guys find interesting people to be on your shows kthxbai.


So, yey for the koda. But she'll probably sing that ballad so, blah.

[TeamAyu2004]

Two things (well 3):
Yay ayumi!
Are the numbers in the ( ) how many times they have been there?
And is the order they are in the list the order that they perform?

yes
no. Ayu probably will be first because of her CDL

[Minttulatte]

Yey for Kuu and Ayu to be there. I can't wait♥

[TeamAyu2004]

ah I see!
thanks so much!

[xLuna&1LOVE]

Good.. Good... performances are good! She will do Missing or Sweet Scar, I think?

[Jester]

Song 4 u is a good choice I hope she'll perform that one (Can I wish for Return Road? LOL)

Ps. Oh God, why is no Sachiko Kobayashi.

sobbing, she is Kouhaku

the majority of the new artists are annoying novelty acts, like Golden Bombers what a joke

anyway hopefully Ayu does Song 4 U

[AyuWorld]

I would love to see Missing! but its most likely that she will sing Song 4 U xD another human dress ? ^^

[TeamAyu2004]

Im hoping she performs something off of again or LOVE... just to try and push sales...
she might even do something off of the classical album!!

[Chibi-Chan]

Yay for Porno Graffitti!

[LEOyumi]

ayu, kyary and AKB are the only ones I'm interested this year.

[TeamAyu2004]

i wonder what AKB will do??
Maybe Sugar Rush?!

[Bigtop]

Not surprised here...but also not going to be a surprise if she goes first again, for the fifth consecutive year (CDL as the reason). Now, I have a feeling Ayu's not going to be a major driver for the red team; it could be the idols of AKB48/SKE48 and Momoclo that will be the major factor in their effort to defend against FIVE Johnny's (Arashi, SMAP, TOKIO, NYC, and KANJANI8!?) and the boys of the white team...

[TeamAyu2004]

for those types of acts its all about the playback... thats what they do. there is no question about it nor do they try and lie about it.

besides, sometimes they sing live as well.

[JackieRos]

kiary!

I was thinking it would be cool if she sang Song 4 u and she does exactly what she does in the PV thanks to an hologramme it would a fantastic performance ! I just dreaming lol

Would be cool, but very hard to accomplish. The technology known as "holograms" today is in fact just a 2D projection that requires invisible screens on stage and lots of hidden projectors. Real holograms do not exist yet unfortunately, the whole 2Pac hologram was a scam. So having it with the amount of movement from the PV...it's possible, but would be incredibly expensive and the most elaborate case of it in...well...ever xD
