You know, I actually liked 'What a Feeling' :D! I've been out of the whole Namie craze for a little while....so this is refreshing.

i still don't understand the different between sampler and cover...

Cover is like when you "copy" a song (Namie's examples: Ningyo / Wishing on the same star and other songs from STYLE)

Sample is when u "copy" just a part of the song...in this case Namie copies a part of that 3 famous songs (like WHAT A FEELING..but you can tell it's still different from the original version....in ROCK STEADY the part ROCK STEADY BABY! it's the part she samples from the original and in NEW LOOK it's Baby Love...)

A recent example of Sample is also MILIYAH KATO's 19 MEMORIES, which is a sample of Namie's SWEET 19 BLUES...the piano part in the star is same and the part SWEET SWEET 19 BLUES also

^i see...thanks for the explanation, i think i understand it now

Guess what I got? Japanese lyrics to WHAT A FEELING:

WHAT A FEELING:

I love to dance ya
Everybody call me DANCING QUEEN

人影のないオフィスが真夜中
Every tangleを見るとカラスみたいにして
倒れてしまうまで　陽が昇り始めるまで

STEPPIN' NOW, I CAN STEPPIN' NOW
体中を波打つBEAT
POPPIN' MY BODY, I CAN POPPIN' MY BODY
EXCITEしすぎて OVER HEAT

WOO-
WHAT A, WHAT A, WHAT A FEELIN' (気分がHIGHになる)
WHAT A FEELIN' (やめられなくなる)
WHAT A FEELIN'

Show the world the best of me, someday put my name in lights

抜け出すため　また登りつめるため
擦り切れたシューズ見つめて I GOT OF MYSELF
誰よりも輝けるよね　誰の心でも照らせるよね

STEPPIN' NOW, I CAN STEPPIN' NOW
体中を波打つBEAT
POPPIN' MY BODY, I CAN POPPIN' MY BODY
EXCITEしすぎて OVER HEAT

WOO-
WHAT A, WHAT A, WHAT A FEELIN' (気分がHIGHになる)
WHAT A FEELIN' (やめられなくなる)
WHAT A FEELIN'

流せる踊りのサイズでも　最後のステージかのように

WHAT A, WHAT A, WHAT A FEELIN' (気分がHIGHになる)
WHAT A FEELIN' (やめられなくなる)
WHAT A FEELIN' (気分がHIGHになる)
WHAT A FEELIN' (やめられなくなる)
WHAT A FEELIN'

Ooo! I LOVE WHAT A FEELIN'! It's amazing! I've watched the PV like 213890213 times! Haha, it's amazing! Especially the part where she wears that red dress (i.e. bondingo's signature and avatar!) She's looking SO GOOD there! :D

If this single is 4A, and called 60s70s80s90s, it would be awazing.

If Namie samples a 90s song, what song should be for 90s? :P
I am so curious.

I think this single is what Namie wants to do.. she samples the songs she likes and makes her own and good music.

If you want to use these lyrics anywhere, credit me because I romanized them.

Romanji by bondingo:
WHAT A FEELING:

I don't think Namie would do a '90s song. The '90s seem too recent. The whole thing that makes this project so cool is that it takes old sounds and makes them new again.

If and only if. It won't happen, but why don't think about it?

It's always fun to imagine things we'd like Namie to do, so there's nothing wrong with daydreaming about it.

I think another reason why I don't think Namie would do a '90s song is because she herself debuted in the '90s, so she already has some awesome songs from that era.

Yeah and she made a lot of hits on that era so I think she can't remake a 90's song

Thanks for those romanized lyrics! It seems like they forgot the bit when she first appears in the red dress. I wonder what English she's saying? D:

"PULSE PULSE AND PULSE AND PULSE
GET ON IT (or UP?)"

I think it's

falls falls stand falls falls stand falls

get on up get on up get on up get on up.

The last part I have no clue about.

Of all 3 songs I liked only WHAT A FEELING.

Thanks for the romaji version... now can sing

I'm sure I'm late but does someone have romaji of NEW LOOK and ROCK STEADY?

So I have to rate the music and videos:

MV:

New look>What a feeling>Rock Steady

MS:

What a feeling>New Look>Rock steady

New look is so cute!

And the clothes and styling is SO HOT in every video. (except maybe the 80s hair lol)

the single hasn't leaked yet right?
i want HQ version of all songs

well
i hoped she can cover some madonna song...
or even cher!
the curly hair in what a feeling
i think is a fashion made by CHER (i think)
remember when cher sang "if i could turn back time" era?
