I like all her concert covers, the only ones I don't like are the collage covers, or any picture that tries to blend multiple covers together like My Story and Missunderstood.

TeamAyu2004 7th October 2014 05:00 AM

i really like the 2012/2013 cover... it was simple, but amazing.

Isicio 7th October 2014 05:11 AM

Very curious and original cover. Yes.

freedreamer 7th October 2014 05:40 AM

LOVE THE COVER!! best moment definitely

adantatu2 7th October 2014 07:33 AM

Cheap, but is cool !! A very emotional cover

Minttulatte 7th October 2014 11:36 AM

I think the covers would look better without that cheap, fake bling on them. :<

ayu_ready? 8th October 2014 10:35 AM

this can't be the real cover, so bad

relmy 8th October 2014 12:34 PM

Great photo choice but no to everything else.

Can someone PLEASE send her a Text 101 on Twitter or something? It's been going on forever and will keep going if something isn't done lol

Chris85 8th October 2014 01:00 PM

Cover fonts are the least of my worries when Avex abuses auto-tune on latest Ayu live releases. Beautiful cover shot.

I love the picture itself, but why do they keep on adding those fake stars-glitter-like shines on covers? gosh…

xLuna&1LOVE 11th October 2014 08:24 PM

Eventhough those sparkles are too much...
I love the photograph!

Erikku 12th October 2014 05:01 AM

I love the cover!
Can't wait to get my hands on the dvd!!

extepan 12th October 2014 06:46 AM

wow the free CD has a really good cover pic! better than the commercial release of terminal cover pic.

inspire_rmx 12th October 2014 01:48 PM

i love the covers! very artistic and original

I know complaining about typography by now is so passé and pointless, but still. I wish they'd get with the times. :(

it's Ayu for christ's sake her covers had been ike that forever xD they usually get the picture right but everythign else just screams "5 minutes work" xD i think by now we should be used to that xD yet for some reason we always expect something better... i guess those few times when they actually HAD nice covers is what ecaurages it... but i think those were accidents xD

orangeakira 14th October 2014 06:11 PM

I sound like a broken record for saying this but I'm a graphic designer and I've taken illustration, layout and typography, and package design courses in college and once again (like I said with the colours covers) I don't see a problem with the font choice. I think it fits nicely.

Chris85 15th October 2014 06:17 PM

4 minute documentary preview was uploaded for TeamAyu members. It looks awesome, so much footage of rehearsals and learning the aerial dance and backstage!

:yes

Refix 16th October 2014 10:08 PM

22 October... hmm I hope that date for overseas version either.
It's still kinda surreal to me that Ayu really took that aerial dance when she barely pissing her pants while standing at Dj's table on A Best 15'th lol Teh girl got balls!!

maxikot 17th October 2014 11:20 PM

I want preeevieeew or sth ^^

Linoa62 20th October 2014 07:50 PM

Irish_Ayu_Fan 21st October 2014 09:50 PM

Just ordered the BD, so excited!!

hayasaki 21st October 2014 11:48 PM

I still haven't seen the full thing but there's this short intro before the first song showing behin the scenes of Ayu travelling from LA to Japan. I think its pretty cool ;)

dannysan 24th October 2014 04:37 AM

I just got my DVD. Here's some pictures.



sorry for the quality

LONJJONG 24th October 2014 06:40 AM

The booklet... :no

KLJames 24th October 2014 08:06 AM

whoever need it, BD booklet scans here >> http://ayufan.com/blog/?p=13194

Surreal17 24th October 2014 01:00 PM

thanks for the link

Earth_maiden 24th October 2014 01:35 PM

Waiting for OS release details. I could buy this in Japan in Dec, but its still cheaper for me to get the OS press, and they're basically identical.

AyuWorld 24th October 2014 02:38 PM

They showed her house,luxury luxury is everywhere,and in the private jet,, *the behind the scene before the concert starts*

KLJames 24th October 2014 08:25 PM

Could only recognise a few songs from m-flo

FLY, Young & Restless, FIND A WAY

KLJames 24th October 2014 09:56 PM

^ thx, i figured out all songs already:

* FAKY - Better Without You (REMO-CON Remix)
* m-flo - FLY
* FUTURE BOYZ - TOKYO STYLE
* m-flo + MNDR - Young & Restless
* FUTURE BOYZ - If There Was No You
* m-flo + MACO - FIND A WAY
* m-flo + SOL (from BIGBANG) - Go Crazy

KLJames 27th October 2014 07:36 PM

lol, after few days, i found out my fav part still that jump! extended version...
yo-chan really had his coolest moment in ayu show history :P

ayumisrael 27th October 2014 08:51 PM

Just watched my blu-ray! The show was AMAZING! I really loved how up beat it was and how the audience raved! XD

I like all of it, my favorite part might be Terminal & Connected. I really loved the energy and how good ayu looked.

It's also important to note that her vocals were really in control. It was probably the best WHATEVER performance vocally.

maxikot 27th October 2014 11:10 PM

It was good but i prefer whatever from CD04-05, was more powerful.

CDL 04-05 easily wins for 2 reasons - better vocals and human voice. In Premium Showcase she is so auto-tuned that she sounds very robotic.

KLJames 1st November 2014 08:01 AM

lol, nice, i saw gomi again (XOXO, 01:36:59.400)

and another 2 reasons: she is 9 years younger and haven't half deaf at the point ... :rolleyes

maxikot 5th November 2014 08:55 AM

I just noticed they showed Gomi in the audience during XOXO performance :)

Toniayu123 9th November 2014 12:08 PM

I am still waiting for my copy but, Where are this year ayupans? :weep

maxikot 14th November 2014 04:20 AM

I have also noticed that during July 1st those square lights on the sides of the stage which were very different from others during whole show were projecting "A" symbol.
Small detail ^^:

Pieces_of_SEVEN 14th November 2014 04:26 AM

I want ayupans too! :/

maxikot 14th November 2014 04:28 AM

Shame we didn't get them this year :( It's such a sweet addition.
Does anybody know lyrics of interludes where Princess and Timmy sang? Magical night and starry night (if i remember well)?

kinix 14th November 2014 08:49 AM

The goods are not even out yet. So there's still chance of ayupans.

Pieces_of_SEVEN 14th November 2014 11:13 PM

^really? have they ever announced that stuff way after the tour has ended? I'm hopeful for them.

Usually ayupans were released on the next arena tour. But recent years have been released at an earlier date. Avex shouldn't miss out this money making opportunity.

orbitalaspect 23rd November 2014 08:21 PM

I just had a chance to watch the performances for Step you and XOXO, WHATEVER and Last angel, and Lelio on YouTube, and I am still wiping away the tears. I remember watching CDL 2010-2011 and thinking, Whoa... even on DVD, An Ayumi performance is great. PREMIUM SHOWCASE though has been unbelievably amazing. I had to cry during the performance of Last angel, partly because I loved the dancers one-by-one getting up from the stage and I could tell Ayu loves performing that song.

Overall, this is easily where all the talent has moved to in the last few years. I remember her live performances being very prop-heavy, her voice being very dated, and she lacked energy through the entire concert. But watching PREMIUM SHOWCASE is like seeing Ayu from early 00s come back from the dead.

I'd love Starry Night lyrics, I've been trying to understand, but Princess' English is just so terrible.

waterballoon 27th November 2014 04:14 PM

I've watched snippets on YouTube. omg I wanna buy this lol.

she looks SO. SO. SO. SO. HOT. I think I'm straight now :laugh

but XOXO and the Terminal/Connected segments are kinda awkward to watch cos she's so awkward lol. especially Terminal/Connected!! someone burn that Big Bird reject coat please lol and if this is how she is in the club I wanna twerk with her in L.A.

Toniayu123 20th December 2014 11:33 PM

I watched the dvd today, and I must say this concert is awesome. Angel was unbelievable *___* the only downside I see is that terminal/connected could have been a lot better, it had a lot of potential to be an amazing performance
And the reason why I love Ayu's concerts so much , she performs with her heart, and no one can do it like her, in my opinion

Marilyn 23rd December 2014 04:57 AM

anyone have the lyrics of starry night?

mi|kshake 1st January 2015 08:28 PM

I was also wondering about the lyrics of Starry Night and who wrote them.

tsumekaze_ 2nd January 2015 01:44 PM

^ Read somewhere that it was written by timmy. Someone also posted the lyrics, it's in here somewhere i think...

mi|kshake 2nd January 2015 04:53 PM

^Thanks!! I will have a look. We need more Timmy songs I think!

Toniayu123 3rd January 2015 10:44 PM

I wonder if I am the only one who hears similitudes between Starry Night chorus and One ok Rock "Notes n Words" o_____o

//ABEST 11th May 2015 10:36 AM
