AT2007 performance (not DVD) previews ~

Heyas,

I found some good quality video clips of an Asia Tour 2007 concert. They helped me decide wether I should get AT07 or AT06, and they're pretty cool to watch. MAN, do those Japanese people talk a lot! They're bla-bla-bla-bla during interludes, rock songs and even ballads. o_O;

LABYRINTH
Some amazing vocals from Peco and Princess in this interlude. The smoke effects are brilliant. The red moon at the beginning is gorgeous.

evolution
Even the ballad version of evolution is amazing. It sounds so beautiful! They should really release a ballad version on the next single. I feel like listening to the ballad part over and over, omg.~

An interlude?
I'm not sure where to place this at the concert. It's a shame the vid stops at Yo-chan's guitar solo.

1 LOVE
Another A-Nation 07 1 LOVE performance, with I think a small variation near the end.

until that Day...
It's cool when at the end they dance around the platform; but I think I prefer the CDL06-07 version because it had more dancers.

Not yet + SURREAL
The usual. It's funny, though. I thought that she had the whole circus outfit during SURREAL as well, but apparently it's just during the last two songs (I think Boys & Girls and AUDIENCE).

part of Me
HUGE Moments rip-off.

The interlude after appears?
Nice guitar solo and choreography. Somewhat reminiscent of the A MUSEUM interlude after appears.

Secret
Aw, the whole crowd is singing along! Well, except those Japanese ladies that are bla-bla-blaing through this touching ballad ( T_T ).

kiss 'o kill
AMAZING. But it ends before the climax when she's standing in front of the cross. ;_; I don't get what this performance has to do with the song, though.

@Chibi: Thanks. ^-^

@kotora: The songs, no. I posted it in the order of the videos. The vid of part of Me is #6, while the interlude after that is #7 and then Secret is #8. So that makes no sense, because there's no interlude between those songs.

i dont think they are from the japanese.
my best guess would be chinese, from the shanghai concert based on what i heard from their language.

anyway, thanks for sharing!!

@royle: Ah, well that would explain "SH"(anghai) in the title of the videos.

Thanks!

By the way, does anyone else feel that the part of Me performance is kind of cheap? It's like Moments but with different costumes and a male dancer added for Ayu. At least until that Day... got a nice twist at the end when they crawl up on the circular platform.

I think that set of costume was introduced way before Moments (I think she had a similar costume and dance in her Concert tour back in 2000).

I don't think poM is a Moments rip off, considering she also did a similar thing for Born to Be...: her elevated on a platform, dancers fanning out around her. The Moments dress was much, much different for starters... and I think the dancers had actual fans during that performance, too. I'm not terribly bothered by it, though.

I agree!! I hate being at a show--even if it isn't in a big venue like Ayu's--and hearing people around me just TALKING. WTF YOU CAME TO THE SHOW TO LISTEN TO THE MUSIC, DON'T BE SUCH A BUTT >:O I never fail to shoot them a few dirty looks and, if time/sound allows, ask them to be quiet so I can, you know, pay attention to the performer and not whatever retarded comments they're making about their day.

This entire concert was kind of a throwback to previous concerts.

She did a cross in Endless sorrow during CDL05-06, she also had a similar dress to the one for AT05's GAME/my name's WOMEN during SURREAL->B&G and such, as well as a similar thing for part of Me and Moments.

She probably wanted to give her ASIA TOUR elements of older concerts so that her OS fans could experience it and stuff..

Evolution sounded so cool - I like it just as much as I like the original!

edit: actually, I didn't realize you could bring camera's into the concerts for Ayu. Was this just a snuck one, or I was it allowed?

There was a search at all the Asian stops, but people still had cameras obviously.

I think it's cause they just simply looked in bags and didn't check and stuff.
