According to Blabbermouth.net,
a highlight of the night was a performance of Teo Toriatte
(Let us Cling Together), a song written by guitarist Brian May
which includes lyrics in Japanese.
“The Japanese audience was so
passionate, so emotional,” Lambert recently said of the show. “You
could feel the connection. And it's different than in other
countries; there is something very special there.”
Roger Taylor, the group's drummer, said
that he was surprised by the audience's age: “The audience reaction
was fantastic. And it was such a young audience, which was a big
surprise for us.”
