Oh thanks, but really, the pv, the live performance, the lyrics, all is about death haha I read something from her saying is about a death (maybe it wasn't true ^^)

Thank you for clarifying that!

Oh, I didn't know that. That's probably the reason why she never sings it.

[kotora]

Alright.. Now we know all these songs about death.

Don't scream these songs and make ayu not happy during the Tour.

We want her happy. She already cried for us when she wrote Sorrows.

[hayasaki]

We're getting kinda out of topic, but, i like most of ayu's death songs. She could make a good compilation album with them. Nah, i'm just kidding. death is some serious thing to tackle and there might be some deep reason why she rather not perform some of them live.

but i've seen enough Memorial Address, or Who..., i'd love some live of Heaven ~acoustic piano version~

[Yukitora]

She clearly has met her father, read the lyrics to Teddy Bear.

[tenshi no hane]

Her father left when she was young.

She doesn't know her father's face. She has of course never asked Mommy anything about her father not at home. But she knows that the scenery she looked out of the window listening to the yellow cassette tape in her oldest memory was just at the moment of her parents' devorce, and that the man Mommy was seeing off silently was his father. After having noticed that, she listened to the story in the yellow cassette tape again and again.

I agree. The visuals are all so gloomy and simbolic of death. But at the same time, I feel that the emphasis is put on missing someone. Maybe about parting ways with someone. Ayu always has multiple meanings for a song.

[Deep snow]

Wow the discussion on this thread has developed into historical overview of her songs. Nice. Kind of makes sense why she's been hesitant (if not refusing) to sing some of these songs.

[kotora]

I seriously don't understand why she refuse to perform It was

It is not a death song.


Also I want her sing Last Links again...

It is such a great song.

It is not a death song but maybe is a really important song for her. It's like Guilty, is not about death but the song have a strong and sad meaning against she and probably she doesn't want to sing it.

LOL it is the matter of font and the photo quality. No, it is not "u" but it is "o" between "c" and "m"

What is that QR code scan for?

And it seems ending song was My All instead of Present.

RED LINE is such a underrated song for TA. glad she performed.

[Surreal17]

I think that's an "o" though xD
But it would have been fun lol

[YukiUsagi]

She will sing Red Line

[~angel*ayumi~]

[Surreal17]

agree. We should just move on and be happy when an unexpected song gets a live.
If she's uncomfortable singing a certain song, better not sing it.

I agree but all this why she wont, sort of how dare she attitude for not singing a song. Its her music, her words, her choice

We don't even know the true meanings to most of her songs, they just can apply to so many different situations and she has never really gone into depth about them. It would be stupid and naive to think we understand her from her stage life. She may also not like the song that much. Its not up to us what gets sung. If she sings it, she will, if she has her reasons, she has her reasons, end of story

[Aderianu]

maybe she just forgot that they exist or maybe japanese fans wrote her that they don't like this song
like Liar was least favorite at My Story album

[Pieces_of_SEVEN]

Wow I love the personalized lights for each venue!
