March 19, 2007 Change it to (miss)amazing!I'm the last person anyone would ever expect to like, much less purchase any Ayumi concert, but there's just something special about this one. Instead of giving her usual tacky and boring concert, Ayumi turns her fresh (miss)understood album into a visual treat! I won't give away anything for the few Ayumi fans or new Ayumi fans who haven't seen any of the tour yet, but I will say that it flows like nobody's business and while Ayumi's live vocals are never perfect, they're pretty energetic (evolution and AUDIENCE are my personal favorites; They'll have any fan jumping up and down singing along [Except me]). There are plenty of dancers, cheap tricks, trapdoors, smoke and all that good stuff, yet somehow, it all works and doesn't come off being incredibly tacky. With a total runtime of nearly two hours, and a bonus disc full of plenty of tour MCs, this is well worth $25. Make sure to pick up a copy of the album too, it's her best since LOVEppears.

January 29, 2007 It's no Secret......The crown for J-pop Queen is up for grabs. After coming out of nowhere at the beginning with the brilliant (miss)understood, Ayumi Hamasaki closed the year with one of her worst albums yet. The only thing this album has going for it is the opening track, a two minute techno piece with few vocals. The rest of the album is filled with the same music, lyrics and the worst singing I've heard since her debut album, A Song for xx. To make an already bad album worse, add some poorly photoshopped covers, a revamped version of RAINBOW's booklet and the most meaningless videos since, well, A Song for xx. I tried this album several times, but that wasn't enough to make me hold onto to it, so I gave it to a friend who loves Japanese stuff, but oddly enough, hated the album more than me. Do yourself a favor and buy something good, like Ultra Blue or (miss)understood. Did you find this review helpful? Yes (Report This)
