Yeah, some of the ones I've seen for staff are holographic too! Crazy.

So did NO ONE download the FLVs of the Rule/EnergizE performances? I usually do that but.. hm..

Word to the wise: DO NOT TAG AYU VIDEOS WITH AYU'S NAME / ARENA TOUR NAME / ALBUM NAME. They will get you.

1.) For My Dear:
I really love the screens. I love that the piano has got "centre stage" so to speak too. Sure her vocals are a little rough. But go listen to the studio version. She can't sing like that any more. She did okay. But the screens are gorgeous, her encore outfit is hot too.

2.) Sparkle:
She sings it amazing from the video. Seriously. Good vocals! Also, the screens are once again beautiful!
Now just the outfit needs changing. X_X

3.) Bridge to the Sky:
I know this is obviously pre-recorded. It's an interlude. So..yeah. But the screens!!!
I effing love the screens!!!!!! The photos are probably pretty rare, eh?

4.) NEXT LEVEL:
WOW. Her vocals are fantastic from what I can hear. I'm really glad!
I want to see the DVD already!!!!

But the screens. Damn. They're fantastic.

I think it's kind of funny she keeps yelling into the mic like that in For My Dear. Maybe she thinks we can't hear her. I have to say FMD is probably my least favorite ballad for her but at least she's not singing it in that high pitched ear piercing voice anymore. I'll take the yelling any day lol.

Maybe she can't hear herself (ear problems). I remember going to AT2007 and during some songs she would constantly be messing the earphone around (adjusting the volume, I guess). Although now that her acts tend to be more choreographed, she just seems to ignore it more.

I think its interesting that within a day she has hit or misses.

I REALLY want to go to NEXT LEVEL TOUR

^I think it's more she's just trying really hard to hit those notes...she's coming up just underneath them though...which yeah...awful lol

but then again...the high pitched thing would probably be more awful lol

why don't they transcribe it into a new key? It would probably sound cool.

I think if she tapped into that nasal-ish quality that her voice had, she could totally hit it still. But the thing is that it appears that she's trying to avoid going into that sort of strange vocal where she's singing through her nose.. hm. I guess that could be why she's 'yelling' and not squeakily singing?

^ Possibly, but I don't really think that she can actually sing the way she did years ago, as her voice has changed quite a bit and her singing style as well, else she wouldn't use her "chipmunk" voice during some of the older upbeat songs which were more nasal.

Thy for all these videos v('_^)
I'm really amazed by the screens (*__*) can't wait to be in october at the final concert aha

Anyway, I'm quite disappointed by the For my dear... performance. I went to the two PCDL and I was really astonished by the FMD performances (especially
by the one of the 30th december) It was no perfect but almost perfect. But here... Yeah... she's yelling. I don't think that she can't hit those high notes anymore. The major problem is that she can't hear her voice.
Moreover her voice may be altered by the lack of rest (u_u)

The fact that she's done it before (and recently, at that) should say something about whether or not she can do it. Perhaps her vocals just weren't working for her that day?
