ayumi hamasaki 『Just the beginning -20- TOUR 2017』~III~

[Chris85]

She said at the beginning of Love song "every day, no matter what happens, never give up on love, dreams and hope. I want to finish with this message, singing this song".

[YUKARI]

there was really strange happening by the way. she was announcing her band and when she announced keyboard (or someone) the music was shut down absolutely and the hall had 1 or 2 seconds of total silence! this was soooo strange.

[Chris85]

It's unfortunate that it became sort of tradition that she looses her voice on the day of broadcast.

[YUKARI]

^ yeah, she should think about doing a broadcast on the first day of finals.

Whoop that sounds a bit shocking/scary for me

I watched Labelo posted the sweet moment of Ayu and Yo chan during Surreal, that was so so sweet and touching

[adrtwb]

her voice was not too bad but first day was better!

i honestly find her vocals pretty good, it sounded awesome at the venue and i'm sure when it got broadcasted it will turn meh...

i got goosebumps when she started singing "ai no nai~"

THE SHOW WAS AWESOME!!

[melissalove]

Her vocals don't sound perfect but I've heard worse, she looks beautiful. But the tour is more of the same, nothing new or exciting. Why were her dancers on stage during who?? That ruined it for me.

[Evan Odinson]

Couldn't watch it hope someone recorded it

[Refix]

About that moment of silence, must be to pray for that keyboardist, Dai Nagano, who fight with cancer.

[Irish_Ayu_Fan]

Just gonna put it out there that inside the Arena in the first 2 days, the vocals were damn near impeccable. Maybe a bit shaky on Warning and Virgin Road but other than that no problems. Walk was particularly impressive as I can imagine that it is quite difficult for her to hit those high notes in it. Really shouldn't have been taken out, definitely my highlight of the entire concert.
Also, the cart thing going around the arena was amaaaazing. As it was my first Ayu concert, being so close to her was like a fucking dream come true. Never screamed so much in my life hahaha

The dancers during Who... the are always there. in.almost.every.concert. I think only during Stadium Tour 2000, there were no dancers.

You mean Shingo Kobayashi?

[Deep snow]

Thank you for everyone who shared the tweets containing the clips! It's unfortunate that her voice wasn't the best on this day of broadcast, but from the previews I'd say that her vocals sound better than last CDL's! I hope some good soul recorded the stream so we could experience the performance a bit better.

Meh, not excited at all to watch it, which is no surprise.

[labello]

It's sad to hear her voice being not as good on the broadcast as it could be. But I'm not surprised, 3 concerts in a row and the last one is the one recorded? It's only natural that her voice will be the most "used" at that point.

She sounded perfectly fine on the 2nd day. I didn't notice anything major, she wasn't "CD perfect" but still really good in my opinion!

[YUKARI]

Spoiler:

all videos I took from 1st and 3rd Osaka show


when the cart passed by. she wasn't looking my way

so I uploaded videos I took. I will make them private in 2-3 days.

[pedronekoi]

^ Thank you! <3

Can't wait to watch it! Did they broadcasted the whole concert?

[Katsuyuki012]

Oh man, it's so sad (but it was to be expected tbh) that Ayu's voice was worse on the broadcasted date... But still rather good, at least in my opinion.
Still, could be worse CDL16-17/MiT...
I also wish she wouldn't have taken Walk out...
I like Love Song and I get the strong message but I really love Walk and I wish we would've gotten another performance of it...

Hope someone will upload the concert if anyone recorded it.

Looks and sounds really good! I like the thing with lifting her up.

I just watched them bowing and thanking everyone while ayu sings. That took away from the song some how. Whatever happened to the moment when ayu presents the dancers, couldn't they do it there.
