Live Ai (stylized LIVE A.I.) is the first live album by Japanese-American singer-songwriter Ai, released on March 7, 2007, by Island Records and Universal Sigma. The album primarily consists of songs and performances from Ai's final performance at Nippon Budokan, but also other various tour dates within Japan from Ai's What's Goin' On Ai tour.[1] The album was reissued on December 5, 2012 by USM Japan.
