[yamogi]

I saw some of the clips. momentum was pretty off and little bit shouting towards the end. Pride is a nightmare...the second half was awful to me, many notes are off heavily. I am, moment, step you, energize are pretty good. I also find that her "ku" sound is horrible in almost every song. Her voice was ok, not too rough.

Dont want to say that again, but more and more people think that her voice is deteriorating over years. Her singing is having more strange habit like "ku" that creates bad sound quality . After her deafness in one ear, her ability to keep on-key is apparently much worse than before especially when compared with her older lives before 2004/5. Off-key is really a killer to any music...really hope that ayu can find ways to fix those strange/wrong habits and to be more on-key on her songs. If not, it will only make more fans to leave...
