COUNTDOWN LIVE 2010-2011 A ~do it again~ information thread

[ayushiteru]

finally a different stage

[Earth_maiden]

It will be really interesting to see the new stage, even if I don't like the concert in general (which I very much doubt, lol), it's still great to see Ayu trying new things.

[AyUmIXx]

i watched the Last angel just now..
ayu didn't sing the low part...wondering why..
and too bad, her vocal wasn't so good at yesterday's LA~
hopefully today's gonna be different

About the costumes, after witnessing what Utada wore during Wild Life no costume any one wears ever will be as bad in my eyes!

Besides, no matter what Ayu wears, good or bad, she can put on a show. That's all that really matters to me... The hair is a mess though, I will admit. She should have just gone natural the whole show lol.

[isthisLOL?]

so far we have those

[flyingpotato__]

Maybe she doesn't want to strain her voice to reach the low notes?

edit: I love duty !!

[love in music]

I don't think ayu should sing Last Angel live.. it sounded about the same from the RnRC 7 days final recording we got and it's just so screamed and bad to me. it really hurts my ears lol. not really the epic opening I was hoping for. I'm going to watch the rest when it gets on JPS in HQ - hopefully it won't take too long!

[duque]

OMFG!!!! the ballad medley (CAROLS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!)
DUTY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
MW + is this love? !!!

lol hunny, hikki ALWAYS looks like crap.

If you're gonna compare everyone to her, everything will always look amazing lol

That's a good strategy!

[kumiko.koda]

I love what I have seen until now

I can't wait to see more

[taskinillusion]

The set list seems... short and random. :/ The videos were interesting to watch. The first opening lines of "Last angel" though were... ouch. D:

Why does Ayu think that short wig looks cute?! It doesn't... D:

Ahhh anyways, it's interesting to see some of the older songs on here she chose to sing! "Duty" didn't sound that bad actually, I enjoyed it!

[freedreamer]

She lowereed the key for Duty right?
its probably one semitone lower...i tried to compare but it sounds almost the same key but somehow maybe her voice is just lower haha.

i still think her vocals should be more gentle on Last angel..it sounds tooo bold and powerful but its ok just that it gives the song a rougher feel

I went to the concert last night and my head was blowed away. Every second was like "OMG THIS SONG?!" (I didn't check out the setlist or anything before I went so...) But with Ayu getting married now I feel like I have nothing new to bring to the table. Like a CDL review. Haha. All I can say is that it was a new type of concert and it might also continue this way. They talked some in the encore that IF the stage would look like this in the coming tour blah-di-blah-di-blah. Enrique for one wanted to get eyes in the back of his head so he could see Ayu since with this round stage he didn't face her anymore like he always had. Lol. I'm a bit bummed over the ending. It was kind of a epic way to end the concert in, just let the curtains fall when everyone was expecting something more, something huge and then just let the word "again..." be left out on the screens. But I missed her running around screaming thanks 100 times. I already feel nostalgic about that, like she have from now on stoped with that. Haha. But I think it might have been just for this countdown.

And yes, I totally KYAAA'ed when Naoya apeared on the stage. Like. Yum! He sings reaaaally well live!

Phew, I'm all exhausted after yesterday night. First CDL was really epic and amazing and shortly after that Ayu reveals that she's getting married! Too epic to function!

Thank you! ^_^

And OMG that is a ridiculous hard question... Hmm... Let's see here. It will probably be the Marionette - Free&Easy - Endless sorrow -section. It was all perfection for me. I teared up in all three songs, they are so strong. I was wondering how they would do Marionette without the same epic carousel from AT08. But I think I liked this version more. It was awesome! The three guys hanging from the roof really made the performance complete! They looked really lifeless yet alive. Really cool effect! Then FreeEasy was just really good too. With Ayu trapped to that pole just like in the PV was a nice effect too. It kind of brought her back to the "old Ayu". And then, OMG Endless sorrow was sooooooo nice! The chair-with-one-wing-thingy was gorgeous and it was spinning around like crazy at one moment and I was impressed that she didn't get sick from all that spinning. Also in the end she kind of collapsed in the chair so she looked like a dead-fallen angel-ish. Looked really cool actually.

^ OMG..ur review seems so interesting..
