, described touring as being on a thrill ride at an amusement park. She further comments, “Once you’re on the ride, you’re so involved in it that it’s almost too late to say, ‘What am I doing?’ In some ways, I’m already psyched up [for the tour]. You have to know that it’s going to be good to bring yourself to do it.”

To introduce the tour, Adu states:
“You can never translate the reality of a show, which is good. I like to think this tour will be better than ever. We’re aiming high,” she said. “It’s a big production. It’s going to be quite theatrical and hopefully visually do a good service to the songs and represent them well and take you somewhere. Hopefully, when people leave, they’ll leave with something.”
