Mariah at Saitama Super Arena, Tokyo

I have just come back from attending the second of the two Mariah concerts at Saitama Super Arena, Tokyo. I am actually from Adelaide, South Australia but I knew MC wasn't gonna come see me this tour so I thought I'd go and see her. I also wanted to see Japan so it has been a wicked experience.

Now to the concerts, I have the full set list of the second concert (Saturday night) in order so I will list that first: It's Like That, Heartbreaker (part remix), Dreamlover, My All (went into the Morales Club Mix), Shake It Off, DJ break, Vision Of Love, Fly Like A Bird, I'll Be There with Trey, two songs by Trey, Fantasy (ODB mix), DFAU, Always Be My Baby, Honey (with Mase & the Loxx rap), DJ break, I Wish You Knew, Hero, WBT, Butterfly Reprise, and All I Want For Christmas (encore).

The only song Mariah performed Friday that she did not Saturday night was Stay The Night. My All and Fly Like A Bird were performed Saturday but not Friday night. Mariah had 5 different outfits throughout the night, the best no doubt the purple top and bottoms with cape and heels she wore Friday instead of the black and the beautiful green dress/gown she had 4th change. The Christmas outfit is always a fav.

The highlights for me were Stay The Night on Friday night and My All and Fly Like A Bird Satuday night, those songs had to be seen to be believed, they were just phenomenal. The crowd was much bigger Saturday night but of course I had a brilliant time at both. I must have been close to the loudest there, though the lady next to me tonight sure gave me a run for my money.

Thanx to HBF for the tix, 4th row both nights was awesome. Other comments from me are that the DJ was great, I loved his songs both old school and new. Trey was popular as ever and the backup singers, band and dancers were appreciated. I had such a magic time, I hope to see Mariah again soon, it's hard to believe the concerts are over. She treated me kind, sweet destiny.
