I’m excited to see the live performance of this song, especially if the band comes back (fingers crossed!) I can definitely see her performing this along with 春よ、来い on the new TA tour and Asia tour. Maybe she’ll premier pray for you on the TA tour?

I agree. I love rock Ayu and the synths don’t add much for me.
As for the crowded mix, it sounds like they have multiple instruments crossing into each others frequency range instead of the engineer carving out space for each instrument to sit. It’s almost as if the mix engineer was either too rushed or too lazy to create space for the frequencies of the instruments and just stacked everything. The PV mix sounds less crowded, not sure if it’s because they’re using a 48 kHz mix down (the usual standard for when printing for video) vs 44.1 kHz (the standard for audio only distribution) though there really shouldn’t be much difference between them as it’s typically the same mix, just the sampling rate of output is different.
