Hometown show coming up!

[HilaryDuffFanboy]

Will be attending the last show at Yokohama Arena on July 5th!!!! Have only watched snippets of CDL but have been listening to the audio rip. Very impressed with Duty.

[terra]

^Duty's rearrangement is just epic, it fits the whole midnight circus thingie.
It's one of her best live rearrangement imo

[aliceshields]

I like this version of Duty.

[Surreal17]

Exactly, the new reincarnation of Duty is simply amazing.

[RealLight]

Guess i'm the only one who prefers the original arrangement

[Deep snow]

I'm with you here. The circus arrangement pales to the original. It sounds like a self-parody to me.

[Tom Punks]

I mean... I'd take the studio arrangement on paper any day, but I like the live arrangement. It's refreshing after you've heard the studio arrangement billions of times over the last 15 years.

[RealLight]

^ I see your point, my case is like Deep Snow's, i'd be fine with a new arrangement, but i just can't click with it and it don't come close to the same feeling the original has.

[//ABEST]

what do you guys think is the next song replacing flower garden? this is gonna be interesting if she changes it every weekend

[Aderianu]

Blue bird

[Pieces_of_SEVEN]

Fairyland for yoyogi shows would be nice

[//ABEST]

i'll say Grateful days

[Surreal17]

fairyland would be a nice choice

[RealLight]

fairyland is such an underrated song, it'd be nice if she adds it to the list and even better if she keeps it and it makes into the DVD.

[terra]

As much as I love fairyland, I don't see the song replacing the kind of flower garden/Sunrise/glitter songs, fairyland is a little bit bittersweet than the energetic songs she's replacing

[Deep snow]

Yeah. BLUE BIRD or Greatful days is more likely.

[Party_King]

Maybe "BLUE BIRD", yes...
But I wouldn't be surprised if it's "AUDIENCE" or "Trauma"...
I think she may save some summer songs for later.


About Duty's rearrange:
I would love it, when she would make studio versions from some of her rearranged tracks from the last years...
- evolution (ASIA'07)
- M (POWER of MUSIC)
- Mirrorcle World (POWER of MUSIC)
- Duty (Cirque de Minuit)
- immature (Cirque de Minuit - if it's as nice as I imagine)
- and some other underrated tracks
...as a second disc for a best album on her 20th anniversary!


And about "fairyland"...
As terra said before, "fairyland" is way to bittersweet for an encore track between "Step by step" and "Boys & Girls"...
But I can imagine an awesome Cirque de Minuit rearrange with a much more creepier bridge and some heavy guitarriffs during the chorus *-*

[JEWELian]

Duty's Cirque de Minuit rearrangement works really well live. I much preferred the performance from last year's CDL to when I saw her perform it at CDL 10-11 ~do it again~. It was nice they did that, while I'm a fan of the old version the new version fits the show better but also freshens things up. The original studio version is quite dated now.

I was excited to see her there for HOTEL Love songs, but ayu barely acknowledged it. I don't think she really associates with Fukuoka anymore she's been in Tokyo so long. The weekend I saw her she literally flew in the Saturday morning and back on the Sunday night.
