Thanks guys!!
I'll have to keep a look out for that!
...And make a Jpopsuki account. ;_;

You should make a JPS account! Large files such as a-nation, concerts, etc have a freeleech, so that you don't hurt your ratio! I love JPS. :)

So, I guess she'll performing one of the 3 songs.

I just have a slightly hard time keeping track of all the different sites I'm signed up on... ;__;

Although I love Ayu's ballads, I think I'd prefer something a little more upbeat...
And I think that would help make the red team win. xP

She'll probably do a new track that she'll be performing at the year end shows. It's a little early to be thinking Sunset will be performed, imo.

^ I agree. It will most likely be a new ballad. After the performance of Mirrorcle World last year, I doubt she will be taking any chances with anything other than a ballad.

No need to throw a tantrum, babe. Mine was in regular debating manner as well. Did I directly insult you? No. It's not my fault if you are offended by my bluntness. Cussing and calling me a twit doesn't make you look any better. And I did call you out-- which is why you're retaliating in such a defensive manner.

Are we talking about the same "rule" and "A song for XX" performance? I just cannot agree and I don't care if the majority thinks so. :) That's just an appeal to authority and that doesn't sway me... it's opinion. I can name even more people who think that her vocals were terrible.

Right... and yet you can't even tell the difference between lip-synching and live. You're not convincing me of how supposedly knowledgeable you are, hon.

You were the one touting your opinions as absolute FACTS in the first place. You bear the burden of proof, not me.

Oh dear... I find this hilarious. Get used to people disagreeing with you.

Looking good red team...

^ yup :yes. i'm hoping she'll perform...

I'm sorry to say this but you're wrong here. like sunshine said, writing "you don't know what good singing is" was insulting. the idea of great singing is subjective. I have not been in Japan as much as sunshine, but in my last visit i went to Kyoto to see a Bunraku performance... seriously, the show was totally out of this world :laugh i've never heard something like that. In Japan they had a totally different idea of what singing is about , so you cannot say there is only a good way of singing.

and if you are not respectful with others , you have no right to demand respect from them; luckily Sunshine and Karen are very mellow and down to earth, because if the discussion were with some AHS members that won't hold their tongues (and there are several of them here) , you could get a really offensive reply and things could turn out really ugly. (just take a look at the trolls from last.fm) If you say rude things, you'll find rude answers.

I really hope ayu attends this show :luv2 but don't perform sunrise please!!! >.<!!!

thanks for the compliment Lady_Eowyn :) . I actually had been 'quiet' here despite reading/keeping myself updated in this thread is because I don't want to start an un-necessary verbal fight in the forums , it will like what you said , turned ugly , pointless & baseless .

& well at the end of the day , everyone I'm sure hopes that she will be performing in Kouhaku

the question that's lingering on everyone's mind's should it be confirmed , what song she's going to do ?

ah decisions decisions decisions

am I the only one who's OK with any song that she chose to do in due time ? o_O

^ I also don't really care what she performs. XD Because I'll probably only watch it once anyways and then never again. I guess I would be disappointed if it were Sunset though, because Sunset is like... probably my third least favorite Ayu song?

It'll make more sense if she performs one of her new songs (most likely a ballad) that's yet to be released...or rule. I actually don't mind another performance of rule..as long as she uses those umbrellas again. :D

go red team!!!!

kuu <3 ayu <3 miliyah

Don't you have to be invited as a guest to Kouhaku anyway?

All this and we dont have confirmation? Not that Ayu would turn it down, but I am surprised to see Namie's name there. I thought she didn't do Kouhaku anymore, so why do they get people's hopes up?

^She always is on this list x,x

Why was it she said no last year?

Thank you for clarifying. I just wonder what is the point of putting people's names down if nothing is confirmed. Do people vote for the artists they like?

^ I think it's sort of a...public invite...like say "You can come if you want to" sort of thing.
