[News] ayumi hamasaki COUNTDOWN LIVE 2019ｰ2020 A (II)

What a show!
Great she performed some songs for the first time.
Glad to hear her voice is improving. May be due to the long rest but it still sounds tired at times. But she managed to retain control over it until the end. No more screaming. Her off-key moments are less painful to hear. And her voice is clear again!
Happy she kept the choir and the brass/strings (even if sometimes I really wonder if they are playing, particularly the strings which sound processed). Less happy to see her band is still not there.

I agree, I can forgive off-key moments as long as there's no screaming. I thought this day would never come. Her actually singing made a huge difference. I tried watching her recent shows, but I couldn't enjoy them at all, it was like a torture and I deleted them and was about to give up on her. There's no guarantee she will keep singing like that, but at least there's hope...
