“It’s not that I’m retiring, but when I think about not being able to hold any more lives for a while…“.

...She like, never has concerts... What's she talking about? O_o. It's always "a while" between her lives, haha.

I'm sure she's referring to all of her live performances, not just her huge concert arena lives.

Um she has never been known for "theatrics"....she's a singer not an actress. As for "horrible" vocals? Nah....they were pretty good. I dunno what you're talking bout....at least she's not out of tune every single second trying to hit notes she could only hit 10 years ago...

uu06 had really amazing graphics and the huge screens. This concert was great but it only kept my ears entertained by the music, visually, i was a little bored, with the little costume changes she had, no special screens or visual effects, or any props. She did look great though.

Her vocals on WILD LIFE were terrible at all, maybe the worst from all of her big shows... And I'm her big fan, even more than Ayu.

An talk about "out of the tune" to defend Utada? 2012 is coming.

when was the last time we even had a tv live? lol

and anyway, UU06 was an amazing concert. It's true to the type of concert that she likes to do.

And I actually agree with Polyrhythm. I thought her vocals were fine...sure, they weren't amazing, but, im sorry, her music is about more than just the vocals.

How do people put up with Ayu's crap? They can do the same for hikki, they just dont want to.

Personally, I'm tired of people giving her crap about the vocals.

Sorry, but thinking that her vocals were fine is just plain weird... she missed most of the notes for the whole concert! The only song that was barely well sung was Boku wa kuma...

As far as vocal technique is, she made Ayumi, Koda and Namie all sound like Mariah Carey this time... Seriously, if this is the way she is singing, the hiatus came on a good time

I don't tend to get disapointed to singers... but this time, I am...

Well, i noticed that her vocals were quite weak during Goodbye Happiness, but i loved them during the rest of the concert. I also noticed that she seemed too tired/sad.
It could have been a better show (at least more cloths changes, some show specially during songs like Passion or Show me Love) but still was great, and the setlist was simply amazing

Most of UU06 was aceptable... cuz she was singing better and we only watched the edited video, were her vocals were already fixed... still, songs like Kremlin Dusk and Be my last were totally butchered.... But this time my friend, disaster...

I could honestly say that her voice was weak at some points but i can still see the emotions. Sadness floats obviously but i guess she did a great job. Plus, the setlist is pure LOVE. I watched the stream... downloaded the rip... and watched it again... I just can't believe she'll be on hiatus now

i blame the allergic reaction she had to the stage. The entire concert made it sound like she had a cold. lol

and i feel like you're blowing this concert way out of proportion. her vocals weren't absolutely terrible.

I'm sorry, but my favorite artist is singing worst than Katy Perry... I'm not ok with that... Even worst cuz her throat didn't sound healthy at all... I think thinks really got bad when she had that problem while promoting TITO or something...

She should be taking vocal lessons, not making concerts...

^You don't like it. Cool. You don't have to go on 10 times about it like a repetitive drunkard. Just one is enough for people to get the message

Your opinion is not my God. Moving on Seriously
