^^ my thought is the same.
After seeing the Evo performance, I was like this is not how Ayu perform this song.

I'm just wondering...where did she messed up during the performance?

Aw, poor little ayu! She totally forgot the lyrics in one part and was out of breath to sing the next! <3 She was still too cute :heart

you were sounded good... The shouting bits don't bother me too much. I actually felt a bit like crying during evolution though :( I just think she should lay off performing her classic songs for a while or not as frequently because her voice just doesn't work with them anymore :( I hope the title of CDL will have something to do with this or perhaps rearranging the songs so she can sing them more easily.

@Keichii: You can find many interpretations of the BALLAD PV in the thread about the single's thoughts in the ayu chat room. :)

She has definitely been out of breath recently... and it's really getting worse over the years... IF she's smoking she really gotta stop, otherwise she should start running more to build up on her stamina, or get more breathing and vocal exercises.

You were... definitely tired her out..she really went all out on that one. I applaud her for her effort still.

yea i saw them too :P,nwey i love how the audince keep supporting her!

yea, i was shocked, the music was a bit slow.:irked and agreed with you freedreamer.

wait so... what did the age chart basically mean. LOL

man teenage guys really ain't diggin ayu

and LOL@ so many 30 whatever to 49 year olds loving ayu homg is that bad?

^why would that be bad?

Is there a pic for Ayu's age chart-thingy?

why would that be bad? nothing wrong there..they have the right too,no matter what age..everybody wants to entertain

@ roanmy: yepp before she starts singing they show the chart and read a fan letter to Ayu

OMG evolution looks so fun! Although her vocals suck, she sure was able to pump up the crowd!!! Ayu wasn't known for her vocals anyways! I love how she forgots the lyrics then was out of breathe or tongue twisted, but she screamed GOMEN!!!(sorry) <3

You were... had so much emotion. I don't mind the shouting, well I'm used to it since she became deaf in one ear. ^^ This performance is better than MS for me.

What the heck......I thought last year, her perf. at the secret christmas live of evolution was bad...holy crap...this performance makes that one seem epic 0_o

anyway, You were... suppose to release the single this week against Fukuyama which his sales for today is 57,083
seems hard for ayu to beat him

I agree. I was supposed to check Namie's first day sale and forgot that ayu was supposed to release You were this week. I saw Fukuyama's first day sale and was like, "well ayu may not be able to pull over 50K on the first day."

What was her first day sales with Days?

Days/GREEN 1st day - 35,116 (x1.75)= 61,453

It still had the multiplier back then.

BALLAD is listed on SSTV : http://www.spaceshowertv.com/search/...u=0077914&ch=0

Takahide Ishii directed it.

If it were Days/GREEN vs. Fukuyama's single, Days/GREEN would win. XD Hopefully You were.../BALLAD would sell as much.

yes! i got it right! it's him, :D
