2011 MTV Video Music Aid Japan

Here are all the performances from the show =]

Namie Amuro ft. AI & Anna Tsuyicha - Wonder Woman


Best show of the night in my opinion. Three awesome ladies with awesome voices putting on an awesome performance. Its awesome to finally see a live this awesome song ;)

Lady Gaga - Edge of Glory and Born This Way


Lady Gaga sounded great tonight, and I love the inspiration in her songs now. She truly is a performer in every sense of the word.

Kana Nishino - Esperanza & Kimitte 


The video will probably be gone in a few hours, but it was a real sweet performance. Kana is getting better at singing live, and her songs always give a nice message. The talk segment in the middle was really touching as well.

AKB48 - Beginner, Everyday, Kachuusha, and Heavy Rotation



I'm not a huge fan of AKB48, but I really enjoyed this performance. Beginner is a really nice song and its fun its listen to. I usually don't like their chorus singing, but it worked well this time. Also, its hard to deny all the good they do for their country.

Shoujo Jidai - The Great Escape & Mr. Taxi


Minus the low quality, it was a real fun performance to watch. SNSD.Shoujo Jidai may not be the best singers in the world, but they are still good, and what really captures people and fans is the dancing. They have some of the catchiest dances.

Monkey Majik


I never heard of Monkey Majik, but I fell in love with the song instantly. Also, the video in the beginning really shows how Japan was changed by the Tohaku Earthquake and what this show is for.

Shinee - Replay



Aww the boys seemed a bit nervous this time around. I don't know about this performance, since I like the song, but being as mellow as it is, I don't know if its the most inspirational one. The more upbeat ones really got people moving and having fun, and some of the slower ones had very inspiration lyrics.

Also Exile performed today, but I can't find the video unfortunately.
