You know I've never watched that medley so I have no idea how it even transitions. Is the transition even good?

I quite like it myself but I am definitely up for having Evolution and Surreal performed separately again! It is a fun medley to break out every now and again though.

This tour is the first one I've been really curious about since AT12. Everything looks so amazing judging by the pics I have seen~ ❤️

Today I went to the Osaka date. It was AMAZING. At first I admit I was a little bit worried and disappointed for the row of re-used songs from CDL but over all in the end is really different and absolutely stunning. Running to bed now, too tired to comment in a more detailed way! Actually just passing by to say that today she sang (I don't know if I need the spoiler tag but better be sure than sorry...)

Thanks for the short review!! And yay for the encore change!!

**ayumisrael** · #14 25th April 2015, 11:29 PM

You should remember that she sing 9 songs from the CDL against 18 other songs that she didn't sing on the last CDL so I think that it's quite alright if she wanted to sing these. =)

Most tours she did have some songs (or even performances) of the last CDL.

While she's had a history of recycling songs and performances from CDL to the AT since CDL 07-08, it's never been to the extent of Cirque de Minuit with 10 songs and performances that are basically identical. Even HOTEL Love songs which kept the same name was quite different between CDL and AT. I can't judge yet this year until I see the show in 6 weeks but I'm sure it's going to be quite similar, just a suped-up/turbo-charged version.

Yeah, but you know, I didn't know the setlist before going there. Watching that the CDL was unfolding all over again (well for the first 4-5 songs Pride was the only new one, after that Until that day and again a CDL one, 1LOVE) made me a little bit worried mixed to disappointed. After that the songs started to be different and I could enjoy it more. As I said, over all was really different but in the beginning I was so scared that it was going to be a CDL14-15 ver.1.5, like with just improved performances (the items on stage, the coreographies, the outfits and the details were a little bit dfferent and/or better of the CDL) and just a bunch of new songs here and there.

Some random comment in spoiler:

Spoiler:

- I love this version of Duty. I just LOVE it. And speaking of re-arrangement, the Immature re-arrangement was really superb too! Gave to the song a really fresh vibe. It was like a darker/EDM vers.
- The silver elephant was so amazing. I was so ready to bow to the Queen. lol
- I'm little bit disappointed by the lack of A ONE songs. I was lucky enough because The Show Must Go On, WARNING, Last Minute and Anything for you are in my top 5 (with Story) but still... It would have been so perfect if she sang at least Story and NO FUTURE too.
- The white GODDESS-like dress was amazing. The movement made her really look like a Goddess.

- She sang again progress, my favourite song EVER. I'm so glad and feel so lucky I could hear it now three times live!
- I didn't expect AT ALL A song fo xx! With Mirrorcle World (THAT SONG IS EPIC), Who..., My ALL, Rule and Secret I could fullfill some of my long desired dreams: to watch these songs live!
- I didn't expect Step by step neither. I like it! Now finally I don't hear the strong resemblance to TSMGO as happened with the preview.
- The LED screen gimmicks were really funny and surprising. WARNING was stunning. I was so confused from the backdancers changing between real and "fake" one. XD The fighitning game section too was really funny and entertaining.
- 3 HOURS+. No need to add any comment to this.

- Her voice was really amazing BUT she need to improve her Step by step vocal performance. It was just that single song but she basically was screaming on that one...
- Diary is really beautiful but I'm a little bit pissed for the japanese public. With him everyone was sitting and a lot of people were going to the toilet/to buy something. I can accept (but I don't approve, honestly) the sitting, but seeing so many people leaving the arena made me feel so sorry for miccie.
- Other thing, one of the interlude was a Bell. It was a longer version that continued in a totally different, and probably unrelated, rockish (or maybe techno? I don't remember but really strong beat) music. I would love a full version for a Bell. I really love that introduction.
- Ah, the fan is absolutely gorgeous.

And the orenge TeamAyu bracalet is so nice!

I hope I said everything I wanted to share!

kotora · #17 26th April 2015, 01:39 AM

I hope all these songs performance will be included in Bluray!

~angel*ayumi~ · #18 26th April 2015, 01:46 AM

Next morning now and I am still tired xD
But it was rly amazing. So glad I didn't watch the CDL before. And I am so happy to hear my fave song live. (A Song for XX)

truehappiness · #19 26th April 2015, 03:52 AM

I think...

She needs to find a new pair of songs to make a medley with. S~e~S was nice for the first 2-3 times but now it's a little too much.
