Glad everyone is enjoying this version of kanariya, but it wasn't what I was expecting and I'm a little disappointed

I was a bit surprised it was the ballad version of the song actually.
Mostly because it was at the beginning of the concert.

Wow I couldn't even believe she had included kanariya until I saw the video! The ballad version is gorgeous. Her older songs are some of my favorites and I'm glad there's a cute/upbeat section. This setlist is perfect for me and I hope it doesn't change too much for the Blu-ray.

Omg Kanariya!!! I'm so shocked, and I love the new version.

Kind of excited to set Trauma back!

I was away from the ayu world for a while, but it's so nice to see a great setlist like this!
I would never expect for her to perform Kanariya at this point of her career, but I'm SO HAPPY!! Ayu, this is so amazing! And the whole tracklist is gorgeous (the downside is that it might be a little short?) full of favorite songs of mine (Last Angel, Beautiful Fighters, Carols, appears)
It's also great that we're able to see the show being shared in social media. It just adds to the whole experience for us who can't be there and will watch the full show later on.
Together with some of her discography being avaliable on Spotify... This makes me SO HAPPY! Yay <3

Aren't her Countdown lives usually an experiment before her Arena tours? This might mean that in her next tour she'll do some classics... maybe even Kanariya again.

^I hope not this time. I mean, I like the setlist a lot but I would love something different for the tour. A tour for a new album would be great. As I said I think the reason she performed kanariya is because 2017 is bird's year in Japan, I could be wrong and maybe that is "just the beginning" for singing rarer songs lol

Not exactly but in recent years they were a template for the tour after. I don't think she'll do another A BEST LIVE type thing so soon and this is the way it is because we won't have Yoyogi for a few years after 17 CDLs.

I AM CRYING, SLAYUMI HAS SNATCHED ALL THE WEAVES

I can't believe she performed Kanariya after all these years, and she sounded SO GOOD. The aerial choreography was so beautiful and that last part with the crown and everything was just perfect, I cannot wait to see this on DVD. I wonder if her staff suggested she did Kanariya or did she decide it on her own??

Also I kinda really like that cheerleader outfit Though I could definitely do with a different hairstyle :/

They played a montage of all the CDLs for the opening before kanariya. The montage during Voyage was of all the Arena Tours. It was an awesome performance.

I think for me the highlight was... Kanariya and finally getting to see a performance of M in a wedding dress.... I was seated in front of the catwalk so it was an amazing view when M began....

Just some random annotations for anyone interested.

00 Concert Tour 2000 Vol.1 Opening
01 kanariya
02 Last angel
03 Fly high
04 UNITE!

Last angel has new choreography as from TA tour. The dancers emerge from all 4 cornera of the arena floor where audience are during Last angel's long intro. Verses from Fly High are rockified.
------------------------------
05 poker face - half song, emerges from side stage
06 ANGEL'S SONG - i think full song... re-enacts the PV, goes on the crane for last chorus of the song
07 Depend on You - half song, goes on the crane
08 Beautiful fighters - half song, wheeled around in a cart and does a lap around arena floor
09 STEP you - full song, odd music break before final chorus
----------------------------
10 M - Beautiful, my fave performance of the night
11 appears
12 No way to say - half song
----------------------------
13 Because of you
14 NEVER EVER
15 talkin'2 myself - last few lines of chorus lyrics are displayed on screen just like the AT08 opening, very meaningful
16 Mirrorcle World
17 We are the Queens
18 Voyage - has bits of the ABL mix and has the ABL outro. Montage of all arena tours played during the bridge

encore
19 The Show Must Go On ~ Feel the love ~ You & Me ~ HONEY
20 everywhere nowhere ~ WE WISH ~ independent ~ Trauma ~ + ~ Humming 7/4
Half of these were verse +chorus, other half was chorus only. She went on the crane again and did another lap of the arena floor on her cart

21 evolution ~ SURREAL - evolution was a half song
22 Boys & Girls

19-22 was one giant medley really

23 Who
She apologised for late starting time at the beginning of Who...




It felt a bit rushed, no MC, as she started an hour late which she apologised for, she said she hoped people got home safely. I know there is an extra song on 31st but i wouldn't be surprised if there was a couple more tonight as she might have just cut a couple on 29th to not finish too late.

The crown thing on Kanariya could be the new concept for the tour? The queen who falls and reborn?

To me it was as if she was the reluctant queen, she never wanted to be one, that's why she is dancing / walking around holding the crown, but it's her dancer that puts it on her head. Then she ascends to the top, doesn't like it, and throws her crown away and shatters it

An hour late? That's a record for her.
Anyhoe I think Kanariya was great, I totally forgot that song sounds like, so I can say it's refreshing.

THANK YOU VERY MUCH FOR ALL THE INFORMATION! But, do you remember around how long the medley was?
