LOL!! That's so old! I don't think she sings "Who.." for the end anymore! I believe it's been replaced by "winding road".

well, Who... is a good ending song, IMO.
Who taught me true strength?
Who taught me kindness?
On whose account do I walk?
Who did I want to stroke my hair?
Who didn't give up for me?
I'll never forget.

...

I pray that this singing voice
will reach you...
I pray that this singing voice
will reach you...



but its true who... hasn't been used as an ending song for a while. Since Arena Tour 2003-2004 I think.

Well it used to always be her concert ending song, but is now replaced by upbeat songs. It's nice to have it playing in the background instead if completely ommiting it

I think it is because she likes to put it as the ending song.

Maybe avex threatened her with a banana and said that if she didn't use it, she'd be transmuted into a monkey.

I actually think that no one knows the real answer.

I think it's basically because of what xiaou-xijiang posted.

Bad Avex, Bad!

even who...'s inst. is soothing and good ending quality. (Maybe I'm just biased, cause its like my favorite ballad ) But I think its great for ending a concert or tour. In Preformance and in credits. Its like: I'm sad that its over, but I'll see ya next year!
Its probably really familiar quirk, or maybe Ayu has a soft spot for that song, or maybe Avex threatened her with a banana and said that if she didn't use it, she'd be transmuted into a monkey.

It might be a typo on the behalf of Avex and they didn't realize it! XD

It's probably because it's a good ending song. And maybe because it means a lot to her? Some people say that "Who..." is dedicated to her grandmother who always believed in her and died at the recording of Ayu's very first song. I don't really know. Nobody will ever know.

" I pray that this singing voice

she wants her voice to reach us. it must be a very special song to ayu, that's
why she uses this song as concert ending song.

It hasn't completely been omitted, as she still sort of plays the music before she yells out ARIGATOOOUU uber-loudly..

Plus the DVDs always feature it in the credits

I guess it's always been THE song to end an Ayu concert
[info: Her fans sang Who.. at her 8th anniversary concert..thing. On that date anyway. Here's the slip of paper!
