Do you think Ayu performs certain songs too often?

If so which songs and should she exclude them from her setlist for a while??

I get tired of listening to lives of evolution and other staples because after a while, the interpretations at each concert aren't all that different. But I wouldn't tell her to exclude them, because when if someone or myself finally had the chance to go to an ayu concert, I'd want my turn to enjoy those too. Otherwise I think it's a matter of songs she doesn't perform often enough or just has never performed *tear*

I think she performs certain songs way too much (SURREAL, evolution, Boys&Girls), but mostly because they're popular fan favorites, so it's largely understandable.

At the same time, she has a humongous discography and the fact that there are some songs she's never sang live before (or only sang once) is quite unfortunate.

I want Who... or Replace back at the end of her concerts tbh. MY ALL and especially Thank U aren't that great.

Strangely it feels like it's been ages since she's performed Who but it probably hasn't been ages.

YES! I feel like recently NEVER EVER gets played too much, as well as evolution and boys & girls. And as much as I love Love Song, it gets played too much.

Yeah, it seems PCDL 09-10, Asia Tour 2007, and Arena Tour 03-04 are the most recent performances... The only one that rings a bell is Arena Tour 03-04.

She needs to stop performing Evolution, Boys & Girls and UNITE! for at least two years, and yes I will be seeing her next year and the year after and I honestly won't care if she doesn't perform them.

Oh, my post is gonna be some repetition of what people already said but well idc

Personally, I do think she performs some songs too much and I'd love if she does not perform Boys & Girls, evolution or SEASONS till her 20th anniversary. I like the songs, but it is always a dejavu from the past CDL which is a dejavu from the last AT and so on

But theeeen, these are classics, just like Kuu always perform Cutie Honey at her tours and Coldplay performs Yellow and Fix You. For the general public, they are the highligths of the concert, especially when you have not heard the artists newest releases.

So, I see why she does it, and even tho I dont like it, I can deal with it.

I'm surprised people think she sings SEASONS a lot tho... Her most recent performance of it on tour was ASIA TOUR 2007 and then A MUSEUM in '03. I think she sang it recently on a tour, but it didn't make the DVD, or something? It's definitely not a concert staple. And considering it's popularity (arguably her most well-known and acclaimed song), it's criminally underperformed.

i'm just bitter because she just sang it the other day on FNS instead of one of her new songs.

I don't really pay attention/care for her lives, so I'm not sure.
But she shouldn't sing songs that her current voice can't... Handle.
The latest seasons performance wasnt the best...

I wouldn't mind if she'd give evolution, SURREAL and B&G a rest.

I'm tired of UNITE! When it comes on I go do something else and leave it running in the background.
