Yuki Kajiura LIVE #19 Kajifes 2023 - 30th Anniversary Live (Blu-ray releases / Box set announced for May 29, 2024)

This is really late and I'm sorry if this has already brought to attention before but I always thought that they were singing bits of Kajiurago in silly-go-round. I was listening to the YKL#19 version and just then I realized, "wait, this is Engrish??"

The lyrics section on this site has it as "kisui sorema disha" https://canta-per-me.net/lyrics/silly-go-round/ but this site https://lyrics.lyricfind.com/lyrics/fictionjunction-yuuka-silly-go-round has it as "kiss you in solemn addiction" and I'm more inclined to believe that this was the one they were singing. The kiss you part is mostly clear and you can hear Yuriko sang "addiction" too in this live, the consonants "ct" was quite prominent.

also it's really funny to me how the streamed cut showed people running and exiting the concert hall (most likely to go to the toilet) after into the world ended. they were holding it in lmao

also how come I didn't realize it before but the cello solo in red rose was literally playing the first bar of ode to joy lmaooo

@grunty until now i'm still wondering what hindered/prohibited her to just include all the lyrics in her releases... like i kinda get Kajiurago because that's made up language but why not all the english/latin/german/italian? is it because it's not the "melody"? but there was some random occasions like Kalafina's Manten where the official lyrics only stated "manten no chorus" and it wasn't until later Kajiura confirmed that Wakana was singing "of pain" and that's the whole melody line there.

That's Eri in front, with the 4 FJ ladies on the back, upper stage. Likely taken during a song of storm and fire

talking about Eri, I remember someone saying Eri wasn't the best during this live but I gave the live another watch recently and I actually enjoyed Eri's tone in this live a lot more than in previous live releases.
 
Re-Watching Liminality, Point Zero and Salva Nos almost every day, I think I would be giving some thoughts:
Yuri Kasahara is the queen, hands up or down.

Her penetrating and full operatic voice does not overshadow any accompaniments, allowing Keiko/ Kaori/ KeiKao to duet along the song; from what I perceived whilst watching some previous lives, any dual parts in Liminality often contained a biased mic and a less favorable one (happened in Vol 2). Such was not a problem in vol 19, though the cameras could have been better lol.

Point Zero: the "aaaaahhhhh" after the staccato is phenomenally impressive.
There was a very powerful in the choir, "alta mista" showed it was Kaori (I believe it was a mix-to-head voice being used here).
"sorti oda mista - arti kasa mita" thanks to the camera and the line-up micro positions, I could see that Yuriko and Kaori being those powerful backing vocals again.
Doing those hand gestures while performing an classically operatic song but Yuri was still able to render it with perfection and enthusiasm.

Salva Nos:
Dancing and twirling while singing without any obstructions or drawing heavy breathes. <3
I'm happy with the lightings here. They altered the color every time the ending verses came, they also complimented Yuri's dress very well XD.
Unlike its vol 6 counterpart, this vol 19 has a better volume stablilization. I don't know if it was me alone or not, but Yuri's part in Vol. 6 sounded pretty low and dim, as if they afraid that Yuri might overwhelm everyone's voices.
Even though Yuri could opt for a full opera voice and dominate other vocalists, she did not and allowed other amazing utahimes to complete the song perfectly.
