NHK has updated their official page with the setlist. Ayu will be performing INSPIRE. I guess it must have something to do with the theme of '歌がここにある' or 'Uta ga koko ni aru' / A song is here?

I was like :O
I like it anyway :D

Odd choice. I wonder how she'll be performing it.

Uta ga koko ni aru probably means like Song is always here for you or some sort imo

I'm excited for INSPIRE!

Well I'm not disappointed, INSPIRE is nice and I like seeing her performing it, even though she sang the song at 2 TV live this year already.

Looking forward to see her.

wow this is unexpected, INSPIRE!
though i wish she'd do a medley actually if the theme is about the song that's always here for you~ ayu has a lot of song that is always here for us~lol, example BLUE BIRD which Japanese fans love, You & Me haha~

well can't wait for it!

emi♡ 18th December 2013 05:40 AM

At least it's not Feel the Love.

brener 18th December 2013 05:47 AM

Great choice!!~ I couldn't be happier!! :love I love this song and it has a lot to do with the theme!!~

Thankfully she won't perfome You & Me or some ballad medley.. ^^

She does need to perform that song at MSSL, the single calls for some promo...

primavera♥ 18th December 2013 05:50 AM

I don't want to hear INSPIRE....man....

whatever, hopefully it's good

Larien 18th December 2013 07:48 AM

I agree.
I like You & me but she performed it during each concert I attended, so it would be too much for me :-)

truehappiness 18th December 2013 08:05 AM

I hope she will do Feel the love or Merry-go-round at MSSL.

Kogepan_19 18th December 2013 08:20 AM

I'm pretty disappointed that she's not singing Merry-go-round...that song could definitely gain highly-acclaimed reception!

Surreal17 18th December 2013 09:32 AM

I wasn't expecting INSPIRE but whatever..hope she'll sing it well.

Please read the lyrics of INSPIRE again
Truly commendable of her for picking this song to make a statement once again :)

Quote:

*No one can live alone
No one can live without love
Though they are matters of course
Now I keenly feel so

**You are blaming on this age
But what is the excuse for?
You see? To talk about love or dream
Is not uncool at all

***I don't have to hesitate any more
I know what I want to protect
It's too late to turn back,
Which I know very well

****Yes, I stand up again and again
If there is a wall, we can break it
Don't you think our lives have only just begun?
So long as there is a way, we can open the door
(quoted from DivineAyu)

Wow! You really did a research. Good point.

Yoake 18th December 2013 09:41 AM

Quite unexpected! I'm glad about her choice. I wonder if she'll perform it in the same way she did in her concert or if she'll change & make something new.

I guess I gotta credit it to fans on For"A"ver Ayu for that. They posted the news and some fans commented to note the lyrics of INSPIRE. And I felt it was good to share here as well if it wasnt already done posted :)

Kudos to Ayu!

LONJJONG 18th December 2013 09:44 AM

Wow? Very odd.
Looking forward for the performance.

ayuuk 18th December 2013 10:12 AM

I am glad it's not a medley~~

AyuGAME 18th December 2013 11:12 AM

INSPIRE out of nowhere...
well..it's better than nothing at all...

ayumisrael 18th December 2013 11:13 AM

INSPIRE is a nice choice. It actually was her best selling single of 2004 (even though CAROLS faired better digitally), it's probably a choice of kouhaku too because iirc they have a say or make the decision which song will be performed.

At least her songs varies each year, there are some acts who sing the same song over and over, on 2004 she sang Moments.
