Legendary songstress Ayumi Hamasaki makes a dazzling return, performing in China after 16 years, embarking on a musical journey across the ages. The Guangzhou station was announced on December 14th, bringing back memories for many whose first Japanese song was Ayu’s rendition of the ‘Inuyasha’ ending theme ‘Dearest’. Her song ‘My All’ has rescued countless people from worry and chaos. Ayu infuses herself into her songs, with a ‘Hamasaki-style’ narrative that has influenced generations with her shining and determined personal charm. She uses her experiences to tell her fans that by continuously trying, one can always live the life they desire. Those dreams, though not perfect, shine brightly.
From the album ‘I am…’, to the Asian tour theme ‘I am ayu’, she revolutionizes self-expression and makes a firm return with ‘I am ayu’. ‘Breakthrough’ has always been present in every stage of her career. This time, in China, the concert presents a different Ayu to those who haven’t seen her for a long time. In the first stop of Shanghai, technology and aesthetics collided, creating an extreme integration of sound, light, and electricity with a four-sided stage design. The dynamic and versatile stage costumes, Ayu sang many newly arranged hits, each familiar song was revitalized on the spot. The Chinese elements prepared by Ayu for this Asian tour stage also made a surprise appearance, including dragon and lion dances, acrobatic dancers, new arrangements of Chinese-style songs, a stunning hundred-meter wedding dress, and a Chinese version of ‘MY ALL’. The value of reunion is imprinted by Ayu in every detail of the stage and also in every cheer and chorus of ‘TA’. Memories are reconstructed, and we reunite. ‘Before the day of reunion comes, please keep smiling and wait.’ The concert is open on December 14th, Saturday, from 19:00 to 21:00.Ayumi Hamasaki Concert in Guangzhou – I am ayu
