Well, a deaf ear can partially hear at a high decibel frequency.. but technically, you can't hear diddly. D:

omg!!! T.T

so sad...

I couldn't find words so I had to quote. :/
I admire her and wish all the best for her.

T____T I love you Ayu!! so sad right now...

OMG!!! I'm so Sad T__T Poor Ayu...

Actually, it looks more like that earpiece was in there to block sound, rather than let it in.. :O

It looks like she forgot that she took the right one out JUST before the end, and was like "dang, better take the left one out before someone notices it's been in there so long.."

Perhaps too... To block the sounds... That'll do help for her ear...

If Ayu ever does a concert again, I want her to lip synch the whole way through, and take good care of her ears... Please do not stress it again. Please ayu. Take care...

she needs a break! she is working for all these years non stop! she must have had burnout syndrom a couple of times already because of the constant stress! D:

SO SAD! take at least 1/2 year off and return in good spirits again!! ;_____;

I wouldn't want her to lip synch... that doesn't sit right with me. I would want her to take the absolute best care of herself as she can and preferably I'd have her not perform for a while, but since she's going to push on I can only say that I wish she does her absolute best with the talents she has. :( She's been managing for however long she figured out about her ear and hasn't let it stop her...

CDL08 makes so much sense to me now and it makes me want to cry... All those notes she couldn't hit, how she probably couldn't even HEAR that it came out like that... Her smile throughout SURREAL.. Her crying so hard during MY ALL--and Shuya crying with her--how she's been trying so hard for herself and for us fans. I'm tearing up just thinking about it. She's a wonderful woman and a true artist, but I just want the best for her. :( I want her to stay healthy.

Go Ayu! I'm sure that it won't stop her in making good piece of music ;)

oh my god. =(

how very sad....but it was bound to happen at the rate she is working. I'm sure her deafness will be permanent now. I hope she will take it easy after her ASIA TOUR 2008.

:(

It seems that during the LALALAs of MY ALL, she's like "oh crap" and just smiles her way through it, because she knows she can't just be like "D:!!!!" in the middle of it..

OMG!! :( how brave of her to continue on anyway. I wonder if this struggle is why she's started to let some of her fashion slide (she's starting to copy Koda). I guess its sometimes difficult to remain on top of everything when she'd facing tragedy.
I wish the best for ayu

Well, the plaid is a nice refresher. I don't think she's copying Koda, since I don't think anyone does.. Ayu's probably just deciding: "Hm, I'll wear this." for some things, and in terms of magazines, she doesn't have a choice sometimes as to what clothes are given to her..

Mhmm. :( And it's just so sad to me--when I think of her smiling and how she sounded throughout SURREAL I wonder if she knew that's how she sounded or if she thought she was doing OK... god, I feel so bad for her. She's put up with enough in 07 she doesn't need any more stress or pain. :(



....... Now more than ever she should get better back-up singers. *coughcough* Trying to joke.

This kinda makes me think that her crying during MY ALL is a culmination of all the holding it in during the other numbers when she's supposed to be energetic.. seeing as how this show is to commemorate Natsuki in a way as well as celebrate her anniversary and she's disappointed that she is unable to hit the notes, thus the crying....

SURREAL's laughter in the middle of the song, as for glitter too.. could be that she's trying to laugh off the whole thing..

Here's an excerpt of her TalkAsia thing about her "feelings":
Perhaps this was kinda what happened at CDL, and she broke? Frustration and stuff got to her? :\

Oh no... :(

I want her to take a break from concerts now...
