Hey there, I've just watched Madonna's Confessions Tour (I know, I'm late by 3 years.
), and I instantly watched a random Ayu concert after that (which was AT 06).
And well, I really love both concerts, but I can't help but be blown away by how different they are.
So, which sort of concert would YOU prefer? Let me break it down...
Madonna
- A lot of focus on Madonna herself.
- Her dancers are most of the time used to convey the emotion that the song has. Like in Forbidden Love, she got her male dancers to do this cool dance to show that they can't be together.. and then in Sorry her female dancers get all punk to convey the wrath in the song.
- Madonna does like everything. Singing, playing the guitar and dancing.
- And oh, there were a lot of F-words appearing around the middle of the concert, while she was singing I Love New York.
Ayu
- As we know, the focus is on Ayu and dancers and band.
- Her dances are most of the time used to accompany her, but they're also used to convey emotions... just that I think Ayu uses her dancers in a very different way.
- Interesting interlude videos. You don't know how distracting is to see HORSES in the videos shown when Madonna sings Future Lovers.
- Ayu only does ONE thing. And that is singing. There are times when she "dances", but whatever it's not as sick (as in terrific) as Madonna, so I just see it has moving-along to the songs.
So they are both good concerts, and Madonna and Ayu are both such amazing artistes that I really love them.
Also, I don't know why I did this thread.
