Sigh... good times good ol days...

[jiarongisme]

Yikes.

[Ruan Borges]

TO BE wasn't good tbh, but I loooved ourselves, AND I LOVE "All over the place Ayu" on fierce songs like that! She just should keep it low for ballads imo.

Oh, and f*ck the haters, they are just trash as always!

^soooo you think having an objective opinion, or being realistic, is considered being a hater...?

I mean the nasty ones obviously are. But I don't feel like people who have opinions like me are. Idk, this performance has me stressed out tbh lol

I was talking about the haters on twitter. Talking only about her body, age and blah blah, it's pure hate.

the second ayu pushes out higher notes, she uses her throat to produce the sounds and it just seems like she cant controll it. i mean ourselves seemed to be so controlly and good! to be is a little off, sad for that

[Next_Level29]

i love ayu and her looks, how she performs and what she has accomplished for the very first beginning. i am a hardcore fan, i love her newer stuff shes putting out, but i understand sometimes people talking about her. i mean the nose just defines her face. sometimes im like, oh ayu, youre gorgeous and lovely but that nose looks soo fake. and im not even meaning it bad or negative

[YukiUsagi]

I don't like this performance . I will upload soon.

She seems to fall into the cliche hole ala Mariah and Whitney. The next time we heard she propbably lip sync her entire tour. As someone mentioned above, it's so embarassing to hear and see that she become what she is now. Compared to her old times where she was busier she still delivered and served us great vocal and image. Now she seem go be taking things too lightly and.... I don't know. It's just sad. I love her so much.

This performance convinced me to save money by not going to her tour.

[Earth_maiden]

Ourselves was brilliant! TO BE I could have done without.

I've been watching ayuready for the first time and it is as if she is an entirely different person compared to her attitude and character in those days.

[attractive nausea]

She indeed lost her charisma and her overacting just makes her look like a parodia of herself, i agree with people saying it looks like she's trying too hard, even tho they're haters lol If i wasn't a fan i'd also say that it's time for her to retire.
Appearing on tv is not a good idea anymore, it's bad for her image, which is sad.

[relmy]

I think her stylist did her dirty with the hair and make up, but when you look at the state X are in... she looks pretty damn good. People on twitter just want to put her down though.

[TheRainbow]

Eh not good. Also, Timmy took me out of the moment when I saw him--he didn't fit the vibe at all.

[truehappiness]

TO BE probably could have been changed a bit to fit her vocals now more especially towards the chorus. The original as it is kind of requires her to sing out of her nose and she rarely if ever does that anymore.

ourselves sounded nice I think. It'll probably be in the tour with the attention it's getting thus far.

I'd say this is probably a result of not warming up properly and not performing much in the months after CDL. I think she almost always never has proper warmups prior to MS performances which is why they are always so hit or miss. Even when MS appearances were normal for her, the vocals were shaky back then and it's even more obvious now since we only get maybe one a year at best.

And part of the issue is that since she doesn't appear on TV much in recent years and instead tours all the time, she basically goes into live performance mode which doesn't really fit TV as much as it does the stage. The only thing that could help is that if she was told to reel it back a bit since TV performances don't need that sort of exaggerated nature to them or if she got used to doing TV lives again but it may be better to just stop appearing on TV since her presence is already rather small on these sorts of shows. Not to mention that just about all the shows she used to appear on have stopped airing.

To be is not that bad..but also not good..just ok
Ourselves is quiet good..not perfect...but not bad...
Overall.,not the best performance but not the worst performance...6/10

[SKYia]

I like both, her vocals won't be better in TV programme, looks like her team isn't responsible for the technical side there and it's always very rough and revealing, I mean, she can't conceal the faults of her voice and technique there, it was so much worse in the past, this isn't perfect, but wasn't a catastrophy at least.
