Kouhaku Utagassen Performances
 

I would just like to know how many times Ayu appeared in the Kouhaku Utagassen (Red and White Festival) and what songs she sang :)

Here's what I know so far:

2000 - Seasons
2002 - Voyage
2004 - Moments

It would be great if someone had some photos, too :)

Oh, and just on a sidenote, who appeared the most times?

1999 - Boys & Girls
2000 - SEASONS
2001 - Dearest
2003 - No Way to Say.

I'll add more if I find any.

Thanks bunches :)

By the way, didn't Ayu sing Love during one Kouhaku show?

Hasen't she appeared a total of 7 times not including this year?

Well, I'm not sure. I'm sure that she sang Seasons, Dearest, Voyage (how could I have forgotten?), and Moments. I've seen all those performances. I missed the No Way To Say one :( According to Demure Dusk, she also sang Boys and Girls. I'm not sure if something came before that...

Photos please, anyone? :)

For screenshots, you can find them on Nick's site.

(Just look for the December 31 dates)
1999 - Boys & Girls
2000 - SEASONS
2001 - Dearest
2002 - Voyage
2003 - No way to say
2004 - Moments

So, her 2005 performance is her 7th.

As for who appeared on Kouhaku the most...
(according to the current list of performers)
Women - Akiko Wada (29)
Men - Saburo Kitajima (42)

Leafy, you are my hero! :)

Thanks, thanks, thanks, thanks so much!

Hah, somehow I knew Akiko Wada would have appeared the most times (for women)! Ever since I saw a photo of "Akina Nakamori comforting Akiko Wada". She's practically an institution! :)

Saburo Kitajima is an enka singer, I presume?

Don't mention it. ^^
And yes, Saburo Kitajima is an enka singer.

hmmm? wats an enka singer?

Sorry for the big bump, but what were the 2005 and 2006 performances?
