holy shit finally a new album!

I'm so happy she finally confirmed the release of another full-length album, although I had hoped for it to be released around summer.

I knew it. My psychic abilities are starting to show off

the new album announcement totally caught me off guard that I couldn't properly process the concert set list lmao

I'm of course most surprised by from your letter! what an interesting choice, especially placing it between the upbeat too late and Hana. I'm so excited to see how it played out.

apart from that, I'm excited about (don't) Leave me alone, Party queen, GREEN, ourselves, and Nonfiction.

plus, I hope her voice was OK?

So we can not hear that rare songs again at ASIA TOUR DVD/BD (Like a doll, no future, petal, pray, my way)......

I actually would have been shocked if we didn't get an album/EP announcement. Literally everything was leading up to it.

I just got on the train home. It was a great concert and her voice was really good!
I don’t know how it’ll translate to video but A song for xx was on par with the a-nation 2008 vocals!

But poker face was probably my favorite of the night. I love that song and I’m so glad to have heard it in full. From your letter was also really amazing to see live.

Nonfiction isn’t my type of song—it’s similar to Dreamed a dream imo—but I’m so happy to have new content and the new album announcement got me excited!

*also the intro was Prologue :)
**For the “Barbie” portion I believe she was wearing a pink Balmain pantsuit from the Barbie collab.
***For Nonfiction she wore a jacket from the Gucci Balenciaga collab, the super sparkly silver one.

thank you for the review! great to hear that her voice was good, and there seems to be some emphasis on the first album in this anniversary tour. so so excited to hear poker face in full.

OMG !!! Thanks for the info and feedback! I'm super excited about all these announcements!! It's been a long time and it feels good!!

Only these few tracks got my attention.

Yup!

03. taskinst
04. 1 LOVE
05. (don't) Leave me alone

The set list is perfect to me, except the depend on you-honey part which I’ll probably mute when watching. I’d like to ask if the band was present but I guess I already know the answer...

^As far as I can tell, they weren't.

So here's to hoping that Trickstar is an interlude on the new album because it was so good!

Has she ever recorded vocals for a concert-only interlude before? Was the voice even her?

That's a very nice setlist and I can't believe she sang poker face in full for the first time ever! I'm so looking forward to watching this concert and I'm so happy we'll get a new album this year! <3

Poker Face was one of the best surprises! :)

On another note, I absolutely adore the way the arena looks (& that they used the higher levels). Here's a LQ screenshot:

She sang Present or was it an instrumental interlude only?
