Jolin revealed to Amuro, “Thanks for inviting me to your hometown to perform in your farewell concert.  I’m very glad to be a part of the concert.  You need to continue to radiate and shine.  Continue to inspire us, but most importantly, continue to smile, my barbie.”  Jolin also jokes, “Her legs are very, very, very long and her face is very, very, very tiny.”

Fans also expressed, “Ever since the two queens announced they were collaborating, I’ve been ecstatic.  Right before Amuro’s retirement is Jolin’s birthday and a big task to carry out.  You guys are creating history.”  

Jolin also posted on Facebook her feelings about working with Amuro and the crew in Japan.  Jolin says, “Every time I a run into a foreign culture and language, I would often reflect on my discomfort.  Thank you Amuro for being so caring and sweet including the presents and the arrangements, making me feel secure.  I deeply thank Amuro and her caring Japan crew for giving a timid girl who still gets scared a very familiar and secure environment.  I believe it’s because they care that’s why they’re willing to do this.  It is worthy for me to learn all this.”
