Thoughts on a-nation '09

[Chibi_Venus]

That's it, I must look up this performance of "TO BE" that everyone's raving about.

EDIT: After watching it on YouTube, I finally feel in the loop and ready to give my opion. XD

Rule: Great opener for a-nation! I really loved her body language after she finished the a cappella. It gave an air of, "Yeah, I own." lol I was mesmorized by the dancing performed by the dancers during the last few choruses, and I got chills at the end.

A Song for XX: Fantastic performance, really. But I agree with everyone else on the fact that nothing will beat last year's performance. But don't get me wrong! It was still great! (And, God, that verse before the second chorus never fails to blow me away.) Actually what I really liked was the extended camera time she got. I enjoy seeing her actually sing through a whole chorus without seeing a shot of someone else or the audience.

BLUE BIRD: O_O That choreography is BEAUTIFUL! Seriously, this is really showing me how seriously she takes a-nation. It's not just some little summer concert she partakes in. I love the effort she puts in! And, ooh, everyone's hands at the end was beautiful!

Sunset: The only I don't care for is her "breathy" sound. She used it in the studio version and now I hear it in every TV performance. =\ I don't like it... Other than that, nice performance.

TO BE: Her wave. God, she looks cute already. ^^ *watching the first verse* God, I miss this song... *continues watching* Wow. The verse before the chorus? The first part. GREAT. *continues* Oh, my God. I'm going to cry. This is... ugh, I don't want to use the word beautiful. It's an understatement. *continues* O_O I had to stop and rewind when she did that "waratte ta yo-o-o-o..." I dropped everything I was doing and went, "Oh, my God!!" WOW. I'm so glad I watched this.

The last three songs were fun to watch. I like the platform. ^^
