^ Never mind the CDLs which I never watched anyways, her arena tours even became boring around that time too. It eventually just got to a point where it was the same **** every year, just new songs.

AT10 was easily my favorite Arena Tour excluding PoM and I thought AT05 was one of her worst so...I do agree AT09 wasn't really good though.

05 one of her worst?! Damnnnnn, I guess opinions of Ayu really do depend on when you became a fan. AT05 is probably her absolute best imo 0_0

^AT05 was the first concert by Ayu I watched... the one I saw when I was becoming a fan... And even if I felt in love with it at the time, nowadays I also do find it one of her worst... Visually, it's a beautiful piece of work... but Ayu as a performer lacked power IMO^^

isthisLOL? doesn't like MY STORY, so it's only natural that he wouldn't like AT05. :)

AT05 is one of the only Ayu concerts that I like tbh... :x

I like all the songs performed, I don't like the concert itself much. Especially the finale. It had great visuals but was a bad performance in itself.
My favorite part of that concert was the opening, which many people seem to not like as much, and About You.

^ ...People don't like HAPPY ENDING? I thought everyone loved that performance! It's one of my favorite perfomances by her ever. :weep

I heard many people say they would have preferred an upbeat opening or simply another song...but it's just what I heard on AHS so...

HAPPY ENDING was the perfect opening imo. :yes It's not often that artists open with ballads.

HAPPY ENDING was one of her best concert openings. ♥ It was really unique.

Yes made me love HAPPY ENDING and she totally killed the vocals there! I remember thinking "Damn, this ***** can really sing live! Just like the CD!" My, how times have changed... Lol.

She sang her ballads almost as good as she sings them right now on AT05, that much is definitely true. Her vocals were far from perfect but on the DVD they ended up sounding quite good for most songs. Makes you wonder why she relied on playback for some upbeat songs + CAROLS. Or maybe they were overdubbed afterwards...no idea...she was definitely good enough to sing them well live so...maybe she needed pauses xD

^^ Yeah, that performance made me love HAPPY ENDING, toooo. :heart Before that, I'd always forgotten that song even existed.

@noidea
Well, that's easy when u can edit ur vocals for DVD xD

^ idk, I thought her AT05 vocals (except for a few songs) sounded a lot better than most of her other concerts, and it's not like it was the only one with edited vocals. I think she's sounded really bad since AT07, whether she sings well ~technically~ or not. I've just come to terms with the fact that I don't the sound of her voice live anymore. :cry

^Well... I really like her voice in AT07... but it's her most edited concert ever... They could easily use some of that vocals for a studio recording @_@'

Some songs sound pretty bad even edited, even when edited to hit the notes perfectly and stuff it was obvious that her voice was rather weak at times. SURREAL is really bad imo.

Sorry, what I meant was everything after AT07. :P I like her AT07 voice as far as I can remember.

oh probably she was not. but during the break-up there were so many disgusting things/rumours about them & their couple! some really disguisting. and weird. and u may never know! :)

yeah, that was great :yes
