I didn't watch CDL 09-10 until way after the DVD had been released (and I wasn't really active on the forum when it originally aired)...why is it considered "infamous"?

Yeah, when I was watching this year's CDL, I noticed the balance seemed off in some of the songs - like, the music was overpowering her vocals at times; that happened, much worse, for "I am..." in the TV version last year too as I recall. It's interesting that there seems to be a difference between perceptions of her vocals live versus a recording of the same live; I wonder why that is, too...


I still can't get over how much I loved this year's main setlist though! (still haven't watched the encore yet)

The TV version is the infamous one, not the DVD version. There were lots of comments then about how those were her worst vocals ever. And I agree, I totally couldn't stand listening to her voice in that version.

Strange thing is, I was there personally for the concert, and she sounded not perfect, but great. So...

^Agreed. I went to that concert too and thought she did well... O.o So I got really confuced cuz when I saw the TV-version I was like "man this sounds bad... now, why's that?"

And I have seen Ayu live 10 times now so it's not like I'm still in the first-time-I-see-her-live-exctatic-so-I-dun-really-care-to-remeber-how-her-voice-sounds-like-mood.

It always sounds much worse in the tv-version then in live itself imo...
