can't wait for tomorrow MS live rite 2/4 ?

omg yes I can't believe it's april!!

http://www.tv-asahi.co.jp/music/contents/m_lineup/cur/

Ayu's performance is still undecided?!

^ Well they aren't listing the songs for any of the artists, so maybe MS has changed its policy about posting the info before hand. (I'd rather be surprised anyways.)

They are. NEWS is performing weeek and Sakura Girl and the others are all listed as well.

....uh....

Maybe the page you're seeing isn't updated... hm.

LOL..the dont wanna reveal?! hahaha..

Must be Ayumi who doesn't want to reveal. Anyway, it's great that everyone will perform two songs for a change. :yes

Looking forward to download the 17GB+ sized .ts file tomorrow.

I wonder if she will perform 2 songs from the new album or just 1 new song+older song. XD

that might be XD looks like there's more chance to watch Mic live,is it live? and then the tour start on saturday rite? ayu will perform a day before that? i guess she might want some rest, no?

You sound so enthusiastic.. hahahaha.

i hope for xvid version of that music station...
there is a lot of artist that i like...
V6, porno grafitti, otsuka ai and off course ayu!!!

Hmm yeah I second this :yes

You are right. :) I had to refresh my cache.

Judging by what others are performing though, we may get an old song and a new one and not two new ones.

anyway guys tomorrow is 2 APril..so we're going to get the 1st live performance from MS rite?

That's pretty much what I had in mind as well, hopefully it's not evolution again. I guess there are chances she'll just perform one full track instead of 1/2 of the two.

i hope not evo again and really hope Ayu gets a good rest today and be prepared for tomorrow,you know its gonna ruin all the joy and excitement here when people start to complain and bashing her about the performance :no

i hope she perform microphone and sexy little things =) but i'm guessing only 1 new song and an old hit. looking fwd to the performance lots

So, is anyone here could download the performance and link it here?

Btw, what time would MS would be aired?

As every other Music Station episode, this one will to be uploaded to jpopsuki and eventually, Ayu's part will find it's way here. No need to panic :P

You can watch the performance on asashi TV via KeyHole TV tomorrow at 20:00 (Japanese time) - which is around 13:00 pm (GMT+1) if I am not mistaken.

I'm pretty sure she'll do an old one since that seems to be the theme. I really hope its not evolution too. It'll definitely be one of her classics though and most likely one that she is rehearsing for the tour too. I'm having a feeling it might be Boys and Girls since she did Evolution on Music Station for A Best 2 I believe. Boys and Girls though isn't exactly a great song for live vocals these days though either. Hopefully she goes the ballad route instead.

^ Well it's either that or SURREAL. Trauma would be a nice surprise though, I'd go with a ballad as well.

I woudl also like a ballad best... SURREAL has been performed a lot in those kind of performance: old+new song (SURREAL+MW in 2008 for example)

I think she will perform Microphone, because it's the first we knew from the album , it's powerfull... but maybe one of her classic ballads wouldn't fit... Idk!! I wanna know the songs *-*

I could've sworn that someone mentioned SEASONS this morning. That post seems to be missing though. Perhaps was edited?

Want to correct you about that. Specials are always one hour earlier. 19:00~21:48 JST it is.

SEASONS would be amazing. And thanks I had no idea it starts an hour earlier.

Either SEASONS or M would be great~

She did sing SEASONS (acapella verse and chorus) though on FNS last year before Days. ^^

So it starts at 19:00 japanese time?
I'll be watching it then

I hope she'll perfom Microphone and BALLAD since Microphone seems to be like the head song promoting the album and BALLAD because she didn't perfom it yet (right? xD)

^She won't perform Microphone and BALLAD because all the other artists are going to sing their latest single and one of their most famous songs ;)

What about Mirrorcle World? I know it's not a classic like SURREAL or evolution but it was quite successful and it fits Microphone a lot.

She might perform Microphone or Sexy little things or Don't look back with an older classic song but she won't perform BALLAD. She will though in the tour most likely. ^^

I posted that, then I saw the actual songs people were performing and realized that it was a fake. Got your back, haha.

Well, we won't know - it's quite unusual when she calls it at the last minute...

How much longer now?

We still have ten hours - but based on my estimates, Ayu might perform last, so that's going to be about another twelve and a half hours until she performs on Japanese TV...

(Not to mention that I've got testing at my school after that - two times for two different subjects...)

so it's really today right MS Speical live performance?
i hope she sing Microphone!!

It might just be a surprise...what's the purpose of this Music Station special?
http://img193.imageshack.us/img193/9...lpurpos.th.png

Something about a 20th anniversary and a #1 SP.

I suppose Ayu will perform one of her #1 hits and a new song.

I believe that is what the other artists are doing.... *** NOT OTSUKA OR AIKO THOUGH. They seem to not have many #1s at all...

The Japanese on BBSes seem to be saying that SEASONS is likely to be done... but we'll see when she comes on.

Aww, I'm bummed I'm going out tonight...I won't get to watch it on TV. :(

yay~~ two songs, that's gonna be so cool!
can't waittt!!

How about SEASONS and Don't Look Back?! Sounds exciting to me :P

^ that would be amazing and very cool ^___^

i really hope so :D

Actually, that's exactly what was rumored to be the two songs that she would be doing.

However, in that list as well were Ai Otsuka doing PLANETARIUM which was WRONG. -sigh-

Microphone and SEASONS seem to be likely, I think.

I hope she does Lady Dynamite. It would be easiest for her to sing.

^^ aww Ai no Planetarium :(

well Microphone and SEASONS still not bad. but just DLB would be fantasmic. i just wanna see DLB performance too

Don't Look back and SEASONS goes with each other as they are from the "same" album. While Microphone is also another choice to achieve a contrasting effect lol.

Yeah, that or Don't look back :yes

Most likely one would be "Microphone", as this, I think, is the "flagship" song of the album (especially among non-singles)...

yea i also think that it's gonna be Microphone as for the new song, as for old hit song, i don't know what i want haha everything is fine..

i would like to hear M *cough*

anywayz i suppose Microphone is expected. she better own it though ^__~

anything is fine with me! I just wanna see ayu!!

^
oh yes M will be great too..

Mircophone,DLB,Season or M,those are my favorites ^^

Here is ayu's new TA post, though no news is there.

^The other two dancers in the picture are Zin and Subaru. ;)

thanks for sharing the new TA post..can we see the pics of the dancers?

i want to see the pics too :(
but thanks for the translation :heart

Ok, Ayu just came out with a huge bow on her head. Reminds me more of Tsuji Nozomi than Ayu right now.

She will be singing Seasons.

^ Thank you so much for the update!!~
<3
What does she look like in terms of outfit and colors??
Hairstyle maybe?

She had a big bow on for SCawaii's [?] shoot...

It's very Ayu imo. I think it's more of a handkerchief thing that looks like a bow.

SEASONS / Microphone?

She's wearing shorts. It basically looks like what she was wearing in the shoot.

yea i heard she said season ^^

^ aww thats so cute
haha

woww MS is on right now??
cool!!
thanks for the pic!!
and Ayu really wearing just like on the upcoming latest photoshoots!!

It has started, what is she wearing? A bow? I thought at first they were like bunny ears. Keyhole it is working so bad for me @_@

EDIT: Oh, I see, I'm SO late XD

http://img534.imageshack.us/img534/5605/49757338.png

Another image from the photoshoot that had it, haha.

OMG BEYBLADES, HAHAHA GALAXY PEGASUS.

ayu looks so cute~ and she's not that much shorter than yamapi...o_O

I'm watching MS right now :)
hope to watch her singing ~

this is what i got for the screencap wahaha XD
so blurr~~

http://j.imagehost.org/0095/ayums1.jpg

Ooo! Microphone mu-mo CM!

Don't look back too!

^i saw them too:heart

what software are you using?
i am using the key hole tv but it is not clear and i can only hear sound....

i wonder will Ayu perform with that appearance..
i think she will only perform one song..isn't it?

XDDDD~ i hope she sing SLT!! XDD
love her spiring outfit!

what software can watch?
I am using key hole tv but there is only sound...

Everyone that's performing is doing 2 songs...

One old / one new.

We kinda expect Ayu to do SEASONS + Microphone, haha. For me, they really hinted at it when they played it when she walked out. If she does do only one song, that'd be rather strange. It'd be like when she did Rule last year and that was it.

yeah saw that :D

nwey just one song? wonder at what time she's gonna sing cos i'd better take my dinner first :P

wow.CUTE!i hope that someone can upload it later.

Ayu is not sitting together with the guests now..
probably she's preparing now?

this Music Station is live right?

^Yes. Music Station is like the only live music tv show in Japan at the moment (if specials of other shows aren't counted).

^
thanks for the explanation..
it's CM-time right now..
can't wait for Ayu to performmm!!!

0MG CAN'T WAIT FOR HER TO PERFORM OH GOHS

STEP you!

Ayu appears so many times here, haha. For a female soloist anyway...

may i get the address of MS on sopcast??
thanks a lot!!

so she performed SEASONS & STEP you??

^
i'm watching using keyhole though, you can find the downloading through google..
KeyHoleTV 3.13

and i think Ai Otsuka is going to perform soon then Ayu is missing.. guess that she's preparing for a change i guess..

STEP you was shown in a #1 thing.

This is a 20 year #1 monthly ranking special.

Ayu has so far been shown 4 times with a monthly #1, haha. She announced she was performing SEASONS, but since a bunch of other artists are doing two songs, we're basically assuming she's doing SEASONS + Microphone... how that'll work.. I HAVE NO IDEA.

She hasn't sang anything yet~

Music Station has a lot CM-breaks o.o

Edit:
Ai performing now

Ah okay thanks xD so, the STEP you thing was one of their ranking stuff... ah okay.

If she's performing SEASONS, maybe she'll sing a similar ballad or something after that? But there's no guarantee she'll be performing in the outfit that she wore for the talk segment right? So I guess there might be a costume change...

oh..thanks!!
i 've found it~~~

wowwwwww so many white ppl on Ai Otsuka CHU-LIP performance wahahahaha XD

I hope Ayu will perform Microphone, PLEASEEEE..
i think that's the reason she's missing from the guests' seat..

tobytang　テレビ朝日 --> this one! find it out..it's TV ASAHI

So far in the scenes where they've shown the guests, Ayu was not present. Everyone thinks she's changing right now.

I saw CAROLS! Did it get #1 monthly in October or whenever...?

Monthly #1 for Moments! YAY. 5th one.

CAROLS! 6th!

I'm guessing she might change into a huge dress for SEASONS, and then rip it off for Microphone or something

ayu got no. 1 for MOMENTS in 2004, right?
not quite understand the ranking thing haha XD

waterballoon, yeahhh like the usual :)

CAROLS?!?! wow..wow..that my personal fav ayu song

edit : looks like i'm not read the whole thread before posting that comment, its just about the ranking thing right?

Ayu got no. 1 for CAROLS again~~
i think the next performer will be V6~

They're going through the last 20 years and showing the #1 monthly song for every month from each year.

POKER FACE DEBYUUUU~

Just turned on keyhole..

It's almost certain she'll perform a new song as well ^^

I have the feeling Ayu will be the last performer.
And yay for SPEED´s my graduation^^

thansk for the explanation, truehappiness!

and i just knew that aiko actually debuted in the same year as Ayu?
woww!!

***** no xD She has to sing now, as I need to hit the road in less than an hour!
