[Not Fade Away]

Continuing the conversation from before -- I think it's just whenever I initially watch the concert I get excited.

Like even though I was watching Wild Life post-live stream, it was just as thrilling because I hadn't seen it before.

Well....and - this might be weird but whatever - I don't get as much excitement from watching it so much as I do from the vocals.

For example: I've heard all of Ayu's lives, but I haven't watched like any of them lol. Don't get me wrong, if there's a certain emotion in her voice (like when she got emotional during 'My All' at Arena Tour 2009 (and others)) I will go and watch it just so I can visualize that portion of the show, but - for the most part - I just like listening to the concerts and not actually watching.

With Utada & Namie though, it's usually different for me. I will occasionally watch Namie's concerts in full because I like to see what dance moves she will perform.

With Utada, I usually watch the performances in full just because I enjoy her concerts so much (even though she usually just stands there, haha).

I'm not saying I don't like Ayu concerts, I just think Namie and Utada affect me more deeply in a way.

I know that seems weird since Ayu puts a lot of thought into her concerts and performances...but I think I connect more with Utada because her concerts are all raw, 'what-you-see-is-what-you-get' performances and Namie is kind of the same. Even though Namie has a lot of dance numbers, there's nothing really flashy or anything like that -- YET.

Okay, sorry for the long long explanation that was somewhat unnecessary.

I don't even remember what I was talking about, hahaaaa
