Lucky trip

Last Saturday, I went back to Jementah to attend my cousin's wedding dinner.

It was a "lucky" trip, first trap in the traffic jam for around 2 hours, then the bus broke down near Ayer Keroh. This is my first experience enhoy the sunshine at the high way, usually I was watching people enjoying thenselves...no fun at all.

This made me getting eager to get a car, then I do not need to spend 2 hours for a ticket (in advance), and another two hours to go to Pudu...

Another from her~Tour of Secret~

Finally managed to post this up, ladies and gentlemen, here we have: AYUMI HAMASAKI - "ASIA TOUR 2007 A ~Tour of Secret~"!!!

The concert DVD consists of her concert lives and documentation on ayu and her staffs' efforts, the back stage and scene from different concerts in Hong Kong, Shang Hai, Taipei and Japan.



The concert starts with one of her most popular songs, "Evolution", but it really surprised me. It is a soft rock song and people who not used to japanese song might think it is noisy. She is sitting at the middle of a large ring when she sang this song, interpreted in a very soft way. This shocked me, it's amazing, I never thought that it could be that ballad. It's an amazing starting!



If there is a song that I love to hear it on live, this is the one, "UNITE!". ayu actually sing this song in many of her concerts, and this song is exactly nice no matter in her CD or in her lives, she always interpretes and performs it perfectly. This song will easily inspiring the atmosphere and with the dance of ayumi and her dancers, I would recommend that this song is always her best live performance!

Most of the Japanse singer would release their album by collecting their recently singles and add some new songs, ayu do the same thing. And this causes me to easily forget her other songs recorded compared to those singles. If I didn't watch this concert (DVD), I would definitely missed this song: "Until that day". Meaningful words plus great voice, I would say this is another success live performance.

Since her "ARENA TOUR 2005 A - MY STORY" concert, ayu started to bring out videos in her concerts to connect each of her performances when she changed her suits and this really works. The videos can easily bring audience to the story of the following songs and the dancers would bring out the meaning hidden in the songs.

There are quite some surprises during the tour, in Hong Kong, she celebrated her 9th annivesary with her audience. Secretly, her staff arrange a special programme in her concert, all the audience receive a message to sing her first single "Poker Face" and the scene was so~ touching...how wish I was there. Also, she sing the last part of "Who..." in Chinese!

For this concert, I can only say: great job!
