What did you think of Ayu's performance of Crossroad?

I just finished watching Ayu's performance of Crossroad on Music Station via a download. OMG...I loved the entire show, and I think I'm going to investigate some of those artists who made it into the Top 5. _(^_^). Ayu's face was funny when she found out that she was on the list...I don't think she was shocked at being Number 3, since she doesn't seem to worry about or compare herself to other artists...maybe she was shocked about how she perceived herself while singing back then during those performances they highlighted? (I think her performance of Trauma was back in 2008.) And I think she discussed her Twitter page with the hosts. (I think she says she used to tweet for 7 hours everyday and now she's cut it down to one hour a day.)

Her performance of Crossroad was GOLD!!! Ayu should sing that song like this all the time...and it was my first exposure to the full version of the song which made me happy. There was a light up cross on the stage....

All in all, this show blew me away and I have a deeper understanding and appreciation of Ayu's crossroad in music.

What did you think of the performance? Let me know!

Are the official lyrics out yet for the single?

[Kanzaki]

Her vocals weren't the best in the world, but they were good. I always get emotional when I see her sing, because she pours her heart and soul into it, and it shows. Her passion makes me cry little happy tears every time! I loved it because of that.

And because it is an amazing song imo. The lyrics touches me too...Her performance left me speechless because of that.

Doesn't this belong in Ayu Chat?

Quoting myself from other thread:

OMG HER VOCALS IMPROVED SO MUCH SHE SANG FLAWLESSLY, BEAUTIFULLY IT WAS JUST INCREDIBLE AND ETHEREAL; I DON'T HAVE TO HOPE IN HER VOICE TO BE IN A GOOD CONDITION THERE IS NOTHING TO HOPE ANYMORE SHE JUST SINGS SO GOOD; SHE'S A TRULY GODDESS

[fuawas]

Amazing and flawless, her improvement was huge!

[xLuna&1LOVE]

It was great, she did an amazing job.
She was very well concentrated, and you heard that in her voice. There was so much passion. I'm so proud of her!
She was kinda relieved when she sang the last words of this song, or she was just amazed that her performance was flawless, like us.

[primavera♥]

Obviously not and I think that's realized but obviously the user can't move it themselves

Anyhow I loved the performance. her voice. it will amaze me if someones wants to go around saying its ruined, etc
The emotion. I mean I teared a little. And she was stunning (as usual)

I think "What did you think of Ayu's performance of Crossroad" thread has to move to other section.

[AyUmIXx]

I love the life performance, it really moves me and makes me fall in love with the song even more..
she sang so great! her vibrato also was not all over the places too..haha..
it's just nice to hear!
she has improved a lot since You were...it just flows so good
Ayu has worked so hard to improve that she's still the great singer
proud of Ayu!

[Cherry Dynamite]

AWESOME! The eye cancer I'll get from watching it on KeyHole is worth it <3

[Kazeyomi]

^


However.. I loved that performance
Her voice's really improved and she sounded really emotional and sweet at the same time.
I may seems a fangirl for what I'll say, but I was pretty sad today and seeing her performance gave me a big smile on the face :3

Silly me! I realized the mistake....this does belong in Ayu Chat..sorry!!

[YuriChan]

I giggled when ayu found out! <33 But her performance was AMAZING!!!!

[AyuGAME]

her latest MS performance is like a MAGIC!
her voice sounded like her Jewel performance back to 2007...
i love it so much...
