Heaven..... is deffinitelly a no-no for me too much English and it sounds like any other crap western artists spit out these days....Even tho i'm not too impressed with "Hands on me", i'd take it anytime over this, deffinitelly not listening to it again lol So far i am only really loving Contrail and BBC..... In general i am not really liking the idea of there being so much english, cuz it sounds really messy....ANd since i am really not a lover of dance music it's a bit of a tricky thing for me to like anything that has heavy portion of it in there, like Heaven. It just sounds so typical to anything western singers do that it just makes me mad cuz it's so bad lol

I'm going to have to agree with the both of you. :yes This album is staring to seem overly derivative for my liking. "Heaven" sounds very mainstream and uninspiring to me. I can't picture myself listening to these songs more than once. :no

I wish she kept that innovative sound she had with (Dr., Defend Love, WILD, etc.)

I hope the rest of the album doesn't sound like any other conventional Western album on the market. :(

:yes I agree but I think I will enjoy these songs (even if this style is not my favorite) because it's easy to listen like all the songs we can hear when you listen to the radio in our western countries ^^

She's the only Jpop artist who's bringing international quality music right now
Sorry but since when EDM music is the only style which represent the international quality music ?? and to consider her as the only singer just because she makes EDM songs ... (Btw I don't speak about Ayu she isn't into this ! I don't want someone calls me hater because it's not true XD)

Oh yes ! These are among my favorite by her especially Defend Love though I really enjoy Contrail this time^^

Hands on Me PV totally blew me always. the styling, her moves and everything. totally love everything about it. the cherography is pure awesomeness. and I love the song. it's so catchy.
The album is gonna be awesome :)

I don't think Electronic music equals quality music, often it actually sounds cheap and rather ****** (Jennifer Lopez new song is a good example)
However, at least production wise i feel like what she's putting out right now is top quality, it doesn't sound half-assed or sell-out, but actually like something that could cross overseas cause the songs have a certain wow factor.

Of course that's just my opinion :P I'm sure there's some who's releasing quality music right now, but she's definitely in the far lead for me. Rihanna would've killled to snatch Hands On Me for herself.

Heaven indeed sounds very uninspiring to me too. I am so glad i am not the nly one here lol
I actually never thought i would like anything namie did because of this dance music/mainstream stuff, but i enjoy the most part of Uncontrolled, and Dr/WILD was on my repeat for a while. It's dance music but it's different, kind of. I mean it does not tell u "western pop music" it tell you "japanese pop music" at least to me.
I am actually kinda dissapointed that it's going this very mainstream way, still tho hopping she has more gems in there than Contrail or BBC, at least for my liking ><

Yeah, I applaud her for doing experimental stuff but I hope the album would sound more unique and less mainstream too. But being a huge Namie fan, I guess I'd still pretty much enjoy it anyway though LOL

Mimichild 13th June 2013 05:30 PM

OMG, Namie KILLED the choreography for Hands on Me! And BTW, I'm super late but I was listening to break the rules and was playing Looking for you 100000x just b/c it was in English!

I really dun know what is 'mainstream' here about the 2 new fantastic songs. As long as she's Not gonna release any boring thing like Can't Sleep & Funky Town it's ok to me X)

Now Hands On Me & Heaven are officially on the list of my top favourite Namie's songs together with Violet Sauce, Do Me More, Fast Car & Defend Love! The two new songs are too STYLISH! GOSH <3

AyuHamasaki01 13th June 2013 06:12 PM

Hand On Me is amazing. The PV is so good, I love it~ The choreography is amazing. Hand On Me is an amazing but then I listened to Heaven and, wow, just wow. Both are so good. This album is gonna be amazing!

pimenta 13th June 2013 06:21 PM

Hands on Me is kind of messy, but I can't get it out of my mind!! @____@
And Heaven is great :D
I just wish she would stop singing in English so much D:

But TCL's Waterfalls... what a boring song! I really don't like this style of music...

& + H 13th June 2013 10:53 PM

Hands on me is so amazing.
I love everything about it but HOW CAN SHE DANCE IN THOSE HEEEEELS

adantatu2 14th June 2013 01:50 AM

I don't like HEAVEN, it sounds like the typical electropop song in USA.
I like electro pop, but i hope we can see more Hip hop and R&b in this album

emi♡ 14th June 2013 02:00 AM

Heaven <3


idk, I mean, no, I'm not crazy impressed with the songs, but tbh I was never really "impressed" with any of Namie's music to begin with. She always styled herself as the Queen of Hip-Pop, but I always preferred Koda's mixture of hip hop, R&B, and pop, over Namie's.

I always liked her more electronic music I think. I mean, the first song that made me love her was Do Me More, and then like, Sexy Girl. So.

I think she fits really really well with this style of music...and it's such a change from the other electronic stuff going on in Japan.


and fml Hands on me PV. The best part when she's just sitting in the chair like "Yep, I'm fabulous~ :D"

I really wanted to like Heaven, but the the "he-bo" instead of "heaven" drove me bananas

jean-baptiste 14th June 2013 04:00 AM

@emi: Yeah, I caught that too watching the PV. She just sits back like I'm not getting wet, I'm the ****.

TeamAyu2004 14th June 2013 06:51 AM

I love the scenes where she is just sitting there. Lol. I can't wait for this to drop. I need some good music in my life!!

Surreal17 14th June 2013 08:43 AM

I've finally managed to listen to both new songs and I think I like them. they're certainly better than almost everything on Uncontrolled. That choregraphy in the HoM PV and those beats are ****in' great.

pheonixflame15 14th June 2013 12:42 PM

Does anyone have any lyrics for HoM? I can't understand some of her Engrish xD

Linoa62 14th June 2013 01:07 PM
