End roll / Stadium Tour 2002

Free & Easy / Stadium Tour 2002

SEASONS / Stadium Tour 2002

Who... / Stadium Tour 2002

Pride / all of Ayu's performances of Pride during 2005

TO BE / CDL04-05

Key ~eternal tie ver.~ / CDL04-05

And many many more...

[njanjayrp]

forgiveness (a-nation '03)
A Song for XX (TA Limited Live)
walking proud (AT 2005)
HANABI ~episode II~ (all were amazing)
HANABI (a-nation '05)
teddy bear + Memorial Address (AT 03-04)
SURREAL + ASFXX (DOME tour)
A Song is Born (Stadium Tour)

there are loads more but those were the best I could think of right now ^^

- I personally love teddy bear & memorial address from 03-04 Arena.

- I also absolutely love 05-06 Countdown medley of Love ~Destiny~, HEAVEN, and rainy day I think is spot on!

- CAROLS, walking proud, Arena 2005.

- SEASONS from the STADIUM TOUR.

strongly agree with ur 1st 2!!

whats so special about this performance? almost everybody usually names this as one of her best vocal performances, but i see nothing standing out about it, and its a pretty easy song compared to, say, Dearest, CAROLS or Free & Easy, and she performed all of the songs named by me (almost) flawlessly already, her best vocal performances for me would be:
Duty DT01
Connected CDL0102(I know it really wasnt near being perfect, but something makes me love the vocals of that performance)
I Am... AT02
RAINBOW TA03
Memorial Address AT0304
Because of You AT0304
WHATEVER CDL0405
Moments AT05
About You AT05
Pride FNS05
Endless sorrow CDL0506
Because of You CDL0506
Bold & Delicious CDL0506
Born to Be... AT06
is this LOVE? AT06
Pride AT06
ourselves CDL0607
Free & Easy CDL0607
Part of Me AT07
kiss o' kill AT07(except the first few lines of the real song....)
fated CDL0708
Together When... CDL0708
untitled ~for her~ CDL0708
decision CDL0708
A Song for XX AT08

This list is missing a-nations because i simply havent watched them completely and most TV performances because i only have around half of them yet

[TITANIC]

I'm amazed her vocal at :
AT 2008, Stadium tour 2002 : End Roll
Arena tour 2002 : no more words
AT 2007 : Evolution, UNITE!, M, Appears, Kiss O' Kill, 1LOVE
AT 2008 : mirrorcle world
AT 2005 : GAME
AT 2006 : Born to be, Evolution

HAPPY ENDING from MY STORY tour.

I agree. I would also add the Music Fair performances from 2003.

[truehappiness]

Ah, Haru yo, koi and that other TOKYO song she sang. Very good. She also did RAINBOW IIRC.

She needs a Music Fair performance again, haha.

[zyoeru]

^ Ayu peforms Yuming songs well. Haru yo, koi and Sotsugyou Shashin were both excellent.

She did a great A Song for Xx performance too.

A Song for Xx (A Ballads version)
Haru yo Koi (Matsutoya Yumi)
Tokyo (Kuwata Keisuke)
Rainbow

She also did Change the World on Ayu Ready the same day which was also excellent.

[polka-dot-jewel]

Hmm... some performances that really stand out (that I can remember) are:
A Song for XX - a-nation '08
Together When... - CDL07-08
Endless Sorrow - CDL05-06
evolution - AT07
SURREAL - DT01
M - AT07
HAPPY ENDING - AT05

And I can't pick a specific performance, but she sounded AMAZING both times I saw her at AT09
