Yep, that's why I still hope they do fix her vocals.
At least 9th was WAY better. |

but everyone makes mistakes. and for Utada, maybe it's because of her throat that is affecting her singing...

She was really off compared to previous concerts, it's a bit upsetting because it's her last two concerts. And she also looked lethargic. I know there are worse artists out there but I'm just a tad disappointed.
And yes, Goodbye Happiness and Blue (I consider these the worse ones for WL though I love these songs), they haven't been performed live but to be frank, this is no excuse for Utada. |

Also keep in mind that most of the songs she was off-key on she rarely or never sings live (although, interestingly, two of her strongest performances were "Hymne" and "Show Me Love"). That doesn't necessarily excuse it since rehearsals should have prepared her, but having done stage musicals I can say that there isn't really anything that can prepare a performer for the actual live event. Anyhow, I'm willing to believe that the second night was a lot better given that Hikki might have been more "in the zone" to start with, whereas her first night she seemed to only reach that mark after the first set of songs. What excites me, personally, about live music isn't whether the singer is on key every song (in a two hour set, that's not going to happen, especially with the melodies Hikki comes up with), it's the energy they bring to their stage and give to the audience; Hikki's energy for the first set was pretty uncertain, but once she was comfortable with the music the entire show got a lot better regardless of how accurate her voice was. |

Wrong. UU06 was recorded on one night at the Saitama Super Arena. This is well known, no clips were spliced together you are thinking of Budokan. Also her vocals for her Wild Life concert was just fine, she was off key at certain parts on some of her tougher songs but so what? This happens to every artist during live shows, do you guys ever watch other concerts besides Hikki? |

I've a feeling the rebroadcast won't be much different but I'm still looking forward to see her in HD.
Oh yes, she sounded way better during In the Flesh (that was more hectic). But she couldn't hit certain notes for S&C and she did the same for WL's version of Hikari. Not sure whether she did that on purpose or what. |

I thought she sounded good after traveling and on. To me it was just the first two songs on Ustream that sounded not so great. |

You know it's funny that you mention inconsistency with her performances because the Wild Life performance itself was inconsistent. The 2nd half of the night (from Stay Gold on) her voice becomes better. On a side note: I can't wait for the WL DVD!!!!  |

 Blue and Beautiful World are my favorites of all her songs!! I wish I could've gone...  Anyway, yeah there has always been some inconsistency with her live performances. Although I can imagine everything sounds better when you're actually there to experience the concert. She may have been off a couple times in the first night of Wild Life, but look up any YouTube video from In The Flesh and she sounded amazing. I still hate myself for missing the In The Flesh concert at New York City...I heard the recording of the second night of Wild Life, and she is indeed much better there. Here's hoping they release the In The Flesh footage bundled with the Wild Life footage. That would be the perfect Christmas present for any Hikki fan.  |
