Insult Ayu's vocals -> quickly give a compliment to something Ayumi didn't even create to make it appear less negative.

I'm onto you...

Well you can see that the conductor turn towards Ayu in the beginning (1:33) and gave like a weird glare at her and also a few members of the orchestra had those smirks on their faces xD
Maybe its just me but even I felt awkward by their weird glances and looks at her while she was singing.
Although i find this version quite nice

[isthisLOL?]

Well, it's understandable. a song is born was already too high-pitched for her when she released it. In 2005 her voice was roughly one note lower, so reaching those notes in the Eb5-E5-F5(?) area was really, really hard for her.
I'm glad she performed the orchestral version though.

[axmish87]

She originally performed(s) this song with Keiko right?
I have the single version of it and at first i thought it was atrocious but later on I started to like it,but i am glad that album version is just Ayu XD
Is there any live perf of this song with Keiko?
