a-nation'09 setlist for WOWOW TV broadcast (26/09/09)

[Keiichi_JPU]

Is that channel available on programs such as Livestation or Keyhole TV? Does anyone know?

[Neferet]

They are broadcasting like 2 songs of each artist and they will broadcast all the songs Ayu performed. We are so lucky! XD

I can't wait!!!

[LacusClyne]

sounds unfair to other's....ayu had 8 songs versus 2.....

but at least i'm sure that i'll see all ayu's performance, even if they don't end up on the DVD

[~angel*ayumi~]

Yay for A song for XX on setlist^^

[noidea]

wow, much ayu...but wheres alan? not even one of her songs? they could have erased one of kuus songs...

[chestergringo]

Thanks for the info^^

[daybreak123]

Wow, there really is a lot of Ayu's songs! But I don't mind at all. I'm really happy that we can see so many performances from her.

[Ayu_Ready]

Ho yeah she's so strong =D can't wait to see her perform !

[mellody]

WTF with the tracklist??

AGREED.
Well, Ayu sing 8 songs and the others is just 2??
avex seems promoted Ayu very much here...

What about Do As Infinity in Reunion and Otsuka Ai???
Even Kuu only sing 2 songs, meh~

[Evolution7/4]

GLOBE! Yes all of Ayu and one of globe songs from their special appearence! Hope more songs are on DVD for the other artist though.

[ayuayu798]

YAY!!! The track list looks pretty good!

[SKYia]

How many hours from now till the broadcast starts? Don't tell me what time does it start, I'm bad with time zones

[Ayumiko]

Its great for us ayu fans. I always considered a-nation the child of ayu's stadium tour.

[Diego-kun]

Am I the only one who's not happy with the setlist? Okay, they're gonna broadcast the eight songs Ayu performed and that's perfect but, what about the other artists? Where are Maki Goto, BoA, mihimaru GT, hitomi and alan's perfomances? Why they always choose DELIGHTFUL ('05, '06, '07, '08, '09)? I love that song but Ami has more songs...
I'm also disappointed with TRF's setlist! I wanted to watch EZ DO DANCE and survival dAnce ～no no cry more～ I also would have preferred to see Infinity instead of Be Your Wings. At least, we will be able to watch globe's come back!! Remember that a-nation is not an Arena Tour! Ayu is my favorite artist but I think all singers should have the same number of songs

[noidea]

^ so they only get top ratings for 20 minutes? fact is, alan, BoA, mihimaru GT, hitomi and so on would simply not get high ratings, but if people see ayu on tv, they like to watch, the setlist probably has a reason, im pretty sure they simply compared the ratings these people had when concerts of them were shown on tv or something

[aura~]

and namie wasn't in a-nation?? it seems like she doesn't appear never in a-nation broadcast nor DVD... it's strange... XD

but well... I'm happy cause I can see all ayu's performances ^^ alan's/boa's/etc's fans might be upset...

a-nation is showed at WOWOW (a pay TV channel) so I don't think ratings are the most important thing for them. I also disagree with your theory "Ayu = high rating" because she got the lower rating at 2009 Kouhaku if I'm not mistaken

Namie only performed at a-nation in 2008 (and these concerts are held every summer since 2002)

for pay-tv ratings are just as important as for free tv, if they don't satisfie their viewers, they will simply not pay for that channel anymore and if they have the chance to either show some artist selling 5k or ayu, they will choose ayu of course

and ayu will definitly get a higher rating than...say...alan or BoA, and i would like a source for kouhaku

Well, in my country pay tv ratings are not very important but I don't know about Japan. I'm not saying they should change Ayu for BoA or alan (like I've said Ayu is my favorite singer) but they should have shown at least one of their songs!

If you don't believe me here u are 2008 Kouhaku ratings (posted by IDentity@JPM)

is that the rating of people watching? or something about votes? if its about the viewers, thats very unlikely, because she opened the show!(nobody switches channels in the opening of the show!) if its about some votes or something i can understand it, because she gave one of her worst performances ever
