Ayu ~Anything Goes~ XVII

[Heavenly]

^ I'm still dreaming about Ayu making a studio version of this song ♥

[truehappiness]

A COVERS triple album, please~

Her own covers of other people's tracks, self covers, and covers of Ayu songs from other artists.

[DonkeyKongRemix]

Yes, that cover is divine. <3 I love that performance so much.

Love this performance. As far as I know, there is no studio version, correct? There should be! Dammit Ayu, where the bleep is A COVERS?

[4Seasons]

Does anyone else feel too uncomfortable to watch performances where Maro is featured prominently? Like GREEN from PCDL is just totally ruined for me now... all I can think about is that Maro p0rno video and him boning Ayu, or "Ayu, why did you sleep with your staff?!". Same for any Ayu x Maro performance now, really.

Eyes Smoke Magic is one of my favourites from Party Queen.
Whenever I was listening to ESM I was picturing the choreo for a concert performance.
What Ayu did wasn't what I had in mind but nevertheless she did an awesome job with choreography and vocals were killer.
Now given the Maro situation I do not mind seeing him that much but sometimes I cringe so it's really a weird situation. Whenever he appears on old footage I tend to consider him as pick the odd one out:-)

[truehappiness]

It is a bit odd to see Maro in things like the "You & Me" trilogy and such. Though it has been that way for a while, maybe since the announcement of the split and not just after he did all those things.

[DonkeyKongRemix]

I know what you mean. The performance of the next LOVE is one of my favorites, but it does seem odd watching it just knowing how things were between the two of them.

Still... I don't think he's the best looking guy in the world but he looked pretty striking in that performance.

I do kind of wonder how their relationship started. Maybe they were interested in each other for a long while or perhaps not. All I know is it did seem kind of like a publicity stunt when I look at it from afar, but that's not to say that it absolutely was.

[Ryusei]

Idk I like looking at him cause I find him really attractive lol and then I think "oh if only he wouldnt have been a douche then I could still watch him dance behind her..."

[tokyoxjapanxfan]

Wake me up, snowy kiss and you & me are kind of ruined for me lol

Also Maro always seemed full of himself so he was never one of my faves. I liked Gomi, 2yan, and Shuya the most. All gone lol.

[attractive nausea]

^ Speaking about dancers who left, is Aki gone too? Like, i don't think she was there for CDL 15/16 and she is not here too for this tour it seems, but i don't think there has been any announcement?
Familiar faces in her dancers being replaced makes me sad, Gomi was my favourite ):

[truehappiness]

Aki may have graduated but she also could have had some stuff to do this year so she's missing. Might be like Subaru leaving for one year then coming back.

I miss Mitsu too, lol. I wonder what he's up to.

The whole Maro thing doesn't bother me too much since I don't listen or watch too much stuff that often from that time. Love and Again etc. I always felt that those two were a strange couple. Kind of random. I loved when Ayu and Mannie were together. But her new man seems really nice too. I think her being with someone who is not in the entertainment business is good for her.
Kazuma is my favorite dancer/choreographer anyway. And Shuya of course.

[//ABEST]

OMG i have not even noticed that 2yan is gone how blind am i

After watching the link above youtube suggested me this:

I'm still praying it was somehow filmed and maybe miracle happens one day and we manage to see it. I suppose Ayu will perform the song again at some point but it seemed so well done during HLS Arena.

This is like my ultimate dream.

UGH this looks so dam epic and I love return road TT____TT Only heard a full audio recording of it on youtube, how evil is avex to tease this in the freaking credits and then dont even add it as bonus -_____-

[attractive nausea]

I don't think she'll perform that song ever again
It seemed to be the "wow" performance of that tour tho, she probably replaced it because she was no longer in that "mourning over my divorce" state of mind
