浜崎あゆみ / LOVE ~Destiny~ (COUNTDOWN LIVE 2021-2022 A 〜23rd Monster〜)
“Hey, since when did I realize
that there's really no such thing as eternity?
Hey, but I'm still prouder than anyone else
that the days we spent together weren't a lie
The length of time we've been alive is a little different, but...
Just being able to meet, just loving you
Even though we can't love each other... La La La La... I won't forget that...”

Ayu just completed her 2021-2022 COUNTDOWN LIVE concert! True to her word, the setlist was very different from the previous night's show, which followed what we'd already seen from the Asia Tour. This new setlist seems to combine the Asia tour with the abbreviated saigo no TROUBLE tour that concluded online during lockdowns. Not that there weren't a few surprises!
