DIR EN GREY Setlist at Le Divan du Monde, Paris, France

Setlist made according to the paper setlist i was lacky to get.
Inward Scream missing somewhere i think.
This was the same setlist as Utrecht.

Today on August 22, It was revealed on their official website that they didn't perform TSUMI TO KISEI on the European tour. The song is actually TSUMI TO BATSU (and is slightly different from TSUMI TO KISEI with uncensored lyrics). TSUMI TO BATSU was also released today on iTunes Store. (Also,on the setlist paper it was written TSUMI TO BATSU but at that time it wasn't released and people may thought it was TSUMI TO KISEI)

Okay, this is a really weird and confusing situation we have with this one song, and I think it needs to be dealt with before the DSS touring cycle goes too far and we have like 50 entries of it to deal with rather than just 15.

Here's the situation from what I understand. On Diru's first full length album, GAUZE, there was a fairly fast-paced song called TSUMI TO BATSU. Fast forward 12 years later, and we have the DIFFERENT SENSE single, which contains the slower, sludgier B-side TSUMI TO KISEI. This B-side was widely considered a remake of TSUMI TO BATSU, has a few lyrics borrowed from it, and contains vaguely similar riffing in some parts, but otherwise, the two songs couldn't possibly be more different. If they'd just stopped there, there wouldn't have been any confusion whatsoever. A few weeks after DSS's release, however, they release a new version of TSUMI TO KISEI with some additional lyrics as a digital single over iTunes, which I assume were also borrowed from TSUMI TO BATSU... and what do they call it? TSUMI TO BATSU. So now we have two songs with the same title that sound almost completely different, the latter of which is a slightly altered version of a song with a different title.

What I think I'm going to do here is change all the entries of TSUMI TO BATSU from this year back into TSUMI TO KISEI, and then state in the @Info tag that it uses the lyrics from the TSUMI TO BATSU "remake"; it seems to be the least confusing approach to this scenario that I can take. If anyone has any objections, feel free to discuss it in the comments.

Due to overwhelming popular vote, I'm just going to change this song back to TSUMI TO BATSU for the time being, with an @Info tag. This issue is not, however, closed; when some way comes up to separate the stats of the two versions that everyone can agree on, I'll be following through with it.
