oh and by the way, Who didn't get ditched. furthermore, winding road is definitely not "far superior" to Who... the lyrics to Who...are fare more touching than winding road.

There's nothing wrong with fan classics. If anything, you should be pissing off about Trauma. >,<

It shouldn't be permanent though. I think that she should have VERSION concerts. She should write her concerts to be like versions A, B, C, and D where she rotates through each version each year. For more variety.

::I now step down from my soapbox::
But I like Trauma! Well, I do when she sings it properly ... and I like doing the dance too! At least Trauma has the kitsch factor and the whole dance routine ... flower garden is just five minutes of 'kimi to! ... boku to wa!' which is just way repetitive and dull. Not even a dance would save it!

I like your idea of rotation though - it's annoying for fans who like certain songs but haven't heard them live or they are performed rarely - I have all her concert DVDs from DOME TOUR (hence have like six performances of flower garden) but yet I haven't seen classics like Far away and SCAR performed live, and also classics like Voyage and Daybreak are hardly sung (THOUGH I DO know that Far away was in Concert 2000 vol. 2). Yet, flower garden which was just a bonus track - not even a SINGLE - is performed constantly! She's NEVER even performed HANABI ~episode II~ in concert ONCE! (I don't count the Digital Dream thingy as a concert although it was in an arena).

She really oughta lose the regulars and give some showtime and preference to older and less performed stuff - yeah sure we have tonnes of Far away lives from when she promoted it but her voice has changed since and it would be nice to see it now her voice has matured ...

PS; about +, it's pronounced More than, as that was what the song was called when it was the ending theme for some AYU READY? episodes

Ohh I agree I like More than much more. But I am really bored by this Encore part everytime. Ayu should do something different there. And I think she should also replace WHO in the next tours. I am so ored of this song-I like other ballads much more!
Ohha dn I think it's bad that Ayu included this year again Evolition + Unite+ BOYS & Girls again at her Tour. I am bored by this sngsshe sang them too much. Why didn't she ang Liar and Hope or Pain on her tour?

yeah, exactly! mix it up ayu! she has far too many songs that are almost never performed in concert.

well she does arrange and produce her own concerts. Maybe she just doesn't WANT to perform those songs...

Yar yar! Girlish is such an excellent song! Haha, wow, looks like there are a lot of songs that she should do! I really hope she does End of the World, SCAR (you know, those super good songs on the DUTY album!) Haha, evolution, Boys & Girls, Trauma are WAY overused!

I still love Who as an ending but I think it might bore people out so yup, I think Ayu decided to change it to Replace. Replace's a happy song so I think Ayu wants everything to end on a "happier" note? Still, she could have sung something like Key ~eternal tie ver.~ ! I would so like for that to be the ending song ... it's sad yet impactful if she wants to change from Who to some other song.

Go Ayu go! Haha, really hope she'll have more variations in her concert tracklists. It's not that I don't like the tracklists ... but it does get a bit boring at times ...

flower garden involves the audience a bit. Thats why it's used a lot, I think.

I did too, until I realized the circumstances.

a) On the LOVEPPEARS kanariya track her voice is altered by a computer A LOT. She could not sing it originally that high, EVER. And with her voice getting lower, I dont think she ever will. I heard the composer wanted her to sing it even higher, but she couldn't so they put it a bit lower and then altered it..
b) The arrangement/Vocals/BG Instruments are too flat. It's too boring of a song.

Wait, I'm going to clarify the "+" thing. At the time, it was a bonus track, so the "+" was the only hint of it on the album. Afterwards, it was revealed that it had an actual name, "more than". A "plus" is not pronounced "more than". -_-;;

well first of all she does not perform "flower garden" at EVERY concert she varies alot so it doesn´t get too boring with the same songs every concert, but I think Who... is just marvelous it should be performed as an "end song" always get moved by her when she performs that on the live concerts

I think Ayu should perform a remix of Kanariya. I'm not too fond of the original song, but I love the remixes.

And I agree with [AHS]MortalSex about Who... It's an amazing song and I think she should keep using it as an ending for her concerts.

Well if you're tired of "flower garden", you should be tired of "evolution", "Trauma", "Boys & Girls" and "UNITE!" too. "flower garden" may not be her greatest song, but it's perfect for a concert because the fans love it. As for "Who..." it haven't been replaced. "Who..." is the perfect ending.
