this live had no pre-recorded back up vocals or anything. just the 2 violinist, viola player, and cellist, and pianist. plus the 3 girls.
1.angels we have heard on high
this song was an AMAZING intro. AMAZING AMAZING. the girls sang it so beautifully, especially during the “gloria” part. (for those who don’t know this song, here you go
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nMBDF46oB98) during this song, i instantly thought “yes. my throbbing ankle is worth this!” and yes, i was in pain the whole time (lol). i cannot express how much the girls sounded like angels! ^.^ this was a perfect intro.
2.storia
let me say this: hikaru...WOW. you go girl. she seriously changed the way she sang it. she added more ‘oomf’, so to say. i seriously was looking at her the whole time. she seriously owned this song. this song is one of my favorites, and this arrangement pushed it up further on my list.
-MC-
they said things like welcome, etc etc
3.seventh heaven
one word: YES. i am sooooo blessed to have heard this live in person. it was wonderful! keiko truly owned this song. her solo in the beginning was very....hmm..i was so moved by her singing. she put so much emotion into it. i was almost in tears just hearing this song. i never would of though i’d ever hear it live.
4.neverending
hikaru, you were my favorite this whole concert. i don’t really have a fav...okay okay i do. i usually am really into wakana..but this live, hikaru earned a new superfan. wakana honestly didn’t sound any different. hikaru, throughout the whole live, sang with so much ‘oomf’ and it sounds like her nasally voice is improving. really loved her in this song.
5.intermezzo
first time hearing this live...don’t know what to say about it. it sounds almost exactly like the studio minus the effects...so it didn’t really stand out much to me...but it was good nonetheless.
6.lacrimosa
okay, so i really hated lacimosa’s other live versions...like HATED them. but wow....the strings and the piano added much more epicness....it made me fall in love with this arrangement..i would love to hear this song sung in this arrangement from now on. it’s so beautiful.
-MC-
introduced the intrumentalists
7.eden
okay, hikaru did it again. she started this song very soft, very tender. i almost didn’t recognize this song at first. i loved the fact that during the chorus when wakana sang, she stopped singing during some moments and let keiko have a sort of “solo” lines. very creative. usually, i get bored during the 2nd part of eden, but they girls had me attentive the whole time.
8.うつくしさ
i was waiting for the moment when i got to hear this live. kinda disappointed. it was good, don’t get me wrong...but the arrangement was sort of...peculiar...the strings were great, though. i think i listened to them more than the girls in this one :p at first, this song sounded happy....then it sounded scary..lol
9.red moon
WOO HOO! i finally got to listen to this in person!!! i really enjoyed this arrangement...it was very haunting, beautiful, and surprising. i even got the chills during the 2nd verse. i am so glad the girls decided to sing this song...it was one of my 3 songs i wanted to hear tonight (the other two were manten and sapphire) and my wish was granted ^.^ so happy. all the girls did a good job in this one.
-MC-
they talked about the christmas tree behind them (it was beautiful). wakana talked about 魔法の見物 and about santa lol she was such a goofball :p
10.deck the halls (japanese ver)
this song was really cute! i never heard it in the japanese version, so it was something new. i found myself singing along in english XD the intro was my favorite. it was just the girls singing, acappella. it was really enjoyable! keiko seemed really exited to be singing this song. before, during the mc, she made the girls hurry up and get close together and was giddy. cute ^.^
11.fairytale
okay, hikaru..i was waiting for your “sayonara”, and i even started flinching...but to my surprise...she whispered it sadly..like “さ．．．よ．．．な．．．ら〜”..hikaru, you surprised me yet again. the arrangement of this song mad it sound sadder than it does regularly.
12.君が光に変えて行く
surprised to even hear this song!!! i was glad, since this is one of my favorite. keiko was my favorite in this one! in this live, she put so much emotion in her voice...loved it.
13.満天
this is one of my favorite songs...and i loved this version! i just though hikaru sounded a little too cute in her parts..she went back to that nasally voice for this one, idk why. i was crying on the inside (HIKARU WHY??? YOU WERE DOING SUCH A GREAT JOB!!!) but this song was still very enjoyable. wakana was the star in this one. she sounded superb!!! ^.^
-MC-
talked with the fans :D
talked about the acoustic last xmas
14.gloria
HIKARU!!!! I LOVE YOU! you sounded SO BEAUTIFUL in this one!!!!! whatever happened during manten disappered with this song...the part where she sings 喜び to 愛せる was my FAVORITE part of the whole concert. the way she sang so fiercely after yorokobi..omg >.< and then she suddenly stopped and sang “aiseru” tenderly...i died and came back XD favorite.
15.輝く空の静寂には
again, hikaru..you stole the stage. don’t have much to say about this one other than i really enjoyed this more than i thought.
-MC-
they talked about 2012 and all their lives and singles, accomplishments, etc
16.屋根の向こうに
wasn’t much of a fan of this song....but it brought me to tears...during keiko’s part, the strings plucked and created such a beautiful moment in the song T____T hands down, keiko stole the stage during this song!
17.snow falling
i knew they were going to sing this song. lol. wasn’t too surprised....but it was a way different arrangement than before. the piano and cello complimented each other so beautifully! wakana sounded pretty good here ^.^
18.symphonia
epic. epic. epic. all the girls did a good job with this one. it was great experiencing this one in person! i really liked the ending..”貴方のしら．．．．べ〜．．．” ^.^ really really nice.
-MC-
keiko said “well, we have one last song”
everyone “EHHHH???”
keiko “huh? what did you say?”
everyone (louder)”EHHHHH?”
lol i love these cute moments ^.^
19.ひかりふる
i think all 3 girls did a magnificent job with this one! i wasn’t expecting it to be so good. but wakana was wonderful! no straining or anything. i really felt all the emotions they were conveying while singing this song. truly a beautiful piece to experience live! my only complaint was during the super, super high parts, wakana got quieter. not too quiet, but it would have been better if she was louder.
encore
-MC-
favorite moment: (awkward silence on the stage) keiko: “uhhhh........no one is talking...” hahahahahahahaha cracked everyone up!
20.sprinter
this song has no piano. just the strings. keiko, you were my favorite in this one. i think she got better at singing this song (not that she was ever bad!) nothing else to say, other than..amazing ^.^
-MC-
favorite moment: keiko going around the xmas tree lol...hikaru and wakana talked a little about christmas trees and the decorations they had on sale...then keiko said “we chose the next song as the last because we want to be always facing towards the new days to come”
21.未来
WOW! the intro...so beautiful!!!! i wrote on my notes “intro ♡♡♡” lol...it was the piano, keiko, and hikaru only. it was slowly sung, then fast, then slow...then WHAM! during the second verse, everyone joined in and played/sang so fierce. it was truly amazing. my face was like “ =o “ hahaha. i was glad they played this as the last song. it was a hopefull and happy song to send their fans home with ^.^ no complaints with this one.
overall, i really enjoyed this concert. i’m glad i decided to go, despite my injury. my ankle was throbbing the whole time, but i didn’t care (well, until i arrived home >.< hahaha) hearing the girls sing a different kind of live style was a great accomplishment. i hope they continue to get better and looking forward to their next live ^.^
so i'll be limping to all the trains i need to get on to go there..hopefully i won't be disappointed. i'm really hoping they sing sapphire...if they do, my life will be complete.
Why won't they release these acoustic lives?!!! 
Please...one day... 
Thank you very much!!!
