ayumi hamasaki 15th Anniversary TOUR ～A BEST LIVE～ IV

[mizuki-7]

There was a similar article when Party Queen came out ! Of course she is in decline but she is far to be the worst and the only but it's Ayu so ... Since 2005 when she began to loose her popularity plenty of articles began to say how Ayu is over ! It's funny I'm sure in 15 years she will always be here ! You don't need to have an army of fan in order to pursue a carrier.

Many people enjoy seeing successful people going down, just look at Britney, people enjoyed watching as she had the breakdown of her life, and Beyonce, even though she is doing good as always people find bad things to say about her.

Ayu is done better and doing better than most artists Worldwide, people are just eager to see her crash and burn.

I don't believe the article, ayu is still going strong as ever. there are still many japanese fans love her there.

It's true, people were chanting "Ayu" for like, 20 minutes before she even came on stage. She has quite a diverse following too, from children to oji-sans and oba-sans. The most touching thing for me was to see the amount of disabled people that had covered their wheelchairs with Ayu straps, hand made streamers and uchiwas. I just wanted to cuddle them, but I restrained myself.

I think the media just want to poop on someone, so they attack Ayu. I'm passed caring about it, lol.

I WANT LIAR.

*rant about kanarya* Oh, come on, it's not really so difficult to understand the urge for kanarya: like it has been said endless times, it's never been performed. Simple as that. And, sorry, but you can't say that you love it, and then that you don't want it performed, at least ONCE. I mean, when are we going to have the chance to vote again? It was a beautiful chance to see an amazing song that, apparently, she really doesn't want to sing.
But some people don't really enjoy it, I get it perfectly, so please, try to understand the hype of people like me. Kanarya is one of my favourite song ever and before the results I had no idea it was loved by many. So please bear with me, 'cause I'm gonna write about it. Like, multiple times. Just ignore me and roll your eyes at me and everything'll be alright. *end of the rant*
Anyway, about the ticket unsold... can it be that this tour covers a lot of places? If it's bigger than usual, like they stated, maybe it's necessary to fill the seats but it's not really a huge problem.

yes even i saw a lot of children and young people at AHS tour while watching the DVD, and so great for those disabled fans supporting Ayu like that!

That article is very unsettling. I haven't been to any of her concert (or Japan) so I don't know how things factually are over there. I can only hope that old ayu fans stay loyal to her and more new fans are drawn to her irrespective of the total lack of release.

I hate to go into another she-needs-to-release-singles / no-she-doesn't debate, but I'll say this: I miss her singles. I mean, what's the deal? I don't care whether she needs to release them or not, I just want her to want to release singles again. Reclaim the throne, ayu. At least climb a little.

About this acting as fans, I was really unlucky in that case, I was with non-fan friend, to my right were two Japanese who sat like stones the whole concert not moving, not singing, and I was in the first row on a balcony (Saitama) so noone in front of me and the next row behind me was high above me, I felt alone the whole time, it was more like watching it on tv :| And I'm talking about R'n'R Circus, not A Best Tour.

[owlflight]

Well I would be jumping for joy if I was at an Ayu concert. I would be super excited just to be there.

[BlackSilence]

lol since i've heard media's take on GACKT nothing really is going to surprise me... thye just have nothig to do, really lol maybe Ayu isn't as popular, but i am sure long years fans are still comming to er shows. I knw people in japan who love her a lot and are going to 3 -4 shows of A BEST LIVE. So..really...

[ComatoseBunnySnatcher]

I wish Ayu wasn't a Flop Queen.
Waaaaaaaaaa-aaah

[TeamAyu2004]

haters always gonna hate.

[kagami]

The decline of Ayu...right. People have been saying her career is over for, what, 10 years now?

[SURREAL__RAINBOW]

Even after A BEST they said she was over lmao

If her career is over then 99.99% of the artists in Japan never had a career to start with

I'm not "HATIN'"!

Her music is so good right now, and she's my favorite so of course I'll wish she does well. I was high at the time so I could not accurately express my thoughts.

[Meshal]

can somebody give me a link to this article
