Need a release date NOW!

New soooooong yes!

I hope it's in Engrish
Bih bois crah

New song, yay!!!
I need a release date !!

yay new material :)

lmfao i'll be dissapointed if it's not in engrish now

Hoping for a double a-side 「Big Boys Cry/Beautiful」...

I think she'll throw some in. She's been on a hot Engrish trail lately.

^except for the word "grateful" on ONLY YOU, she's been pretty good on CD?

^ Yep!

13 second preview

I don't even know what language she's speaking anymore:
I do wit I want, I do wit I like
Miss I don't wanna turn it (or 'they say I want it dirty')
Big boys cry
(At least she isn't talking about limes again like in Only You)

I like it already!

she's going back to that Hip-Pop style eh?

OMGGGG. I love it.

Yet again, she could put out a song set to elevator music and I would like it.

Now that I'm listening to it for the 500th time, I get a little of a Girl TalkXUnusualXWoWaXBaby Don't Cry mash-up vibe from this song.

Don't ask me where I came up with that....but yeah.

I like it already !!!
It reminds me Hide and Seek

Amazing! I need the full song now ;D

Eh
Don't really like it from the preview

+1

Awesome sounding song. As much as I love her dance music, I still prefer hip pop because it's like her own genre completely. I can't wait♥

I'm loving the PLAY era vibes, not the direction i thought she would go in but i love it!
Excited for the full thing :)

i like the melody but i'm not very fond of the arrangement, that r&b sound just doesn't do a thing for me. Sound very weak. i don't think any of her new songs will beat Damage for me lol that was an epic track.

not impressed really.sounds like a typical cute jpop

Sounds interesting imo

Have to say I'm not sure what to make of it. I don't particularly like the preview, it reminds me of Hot Girls (with the voices) and I didn't really like that either. Seems to me her music doesn't really stand out these days...

It's too short so I don't know ? it could be interesting ?

i think i'm gonna like it

The preview is way too short and it didnt catch me yet :P

I like the sound from the preview but it's way too short to make a proper decision :P

Even though the preview is short, I think it sounds really good. Like some pointed out, it reminds me of something of the PLAY era.

I'm hoping for a longer preview soon.

It reminds me of Pink Key!~

i haven't been keeping up with Namie for a while can anyone tell me what she's up to so i don't have to go through the tedious effort of clicking back a few pages?

I love the preview. :luv2 Namie sounds better than ever. Will this be a physical release?

Don't know if I like it or not, but it totally brings me back to her PLAY era :luv2

I love it! Let the release date be soon pls T__T

So far it sounds exactly like what I was expecting, and I like it. I'm getting more of a "PINK KEY" vibe than anything else :)

I thought it was out already. Not listening to the preview.

"Big Boys Cry" is kind of an adorable title. Very... Namie.

Namie's official website has updated the photo of the +2CD editions of her tour DVD/Blu-ray with a new cover:

http://visionfactory.jp/news/news_ar...1000_amuro.jpg

Although I don't place too much emphasis on covers, I prefer this cover over the other one so I'm happy that I'm getting the edition with this cover.


The website also has also been updated with information regarding her new single 『Big Boys Cry / Beautiful:

It's only coming in a CD only edition and is now available for preorder:
CDJapan
YesAsia

Nice cover, but I'm still in love with the other one :luv2

So I assume Beautiful is the "you're beautiful" song from the Kose commercial xD! I thought it sounded nice in the commercial so I'm glad it's a proper song :)

Also, looks like no CD+DVD edition so I guess no PVs!

I love that cover. IS AMAZING

Bigger


I prefer the other one! Hope they use that image for the poster

The queen is back and ready to slay.

UHQ covers

The new cover is amazing.

Yay for the new single :yatta. Kinda sucks there will only be a CD-only versions, so no PVs then :bsigh

Those covers are gorgeous as hell! :heart

And yey for the new single♥

Yay for double A-side single, but A single without any PV I don't like that=/

I really like the white outfit :)

Amazing covers! She looks really beautiful in both, but I think I like the first one better. Her make-up in the other one is a little too much, in my opinion.

Also can't wait for the new single! <3

which one exactly?

^
i think this



this song could really go anywhere HAHA

I thought I was the only one disappointed about the new single not having a CD+DVD edition. I always go for those :(

Today, I jammed to the dog song
I was tapping my feet in class and people were looking at me.

Now I am oddly aware of how sweaty her hair is in the new cover...

Yeah, I'll just stick with the first cover lol

Amazing.

Has anyone already seen the new Kosé Esprique CM? I like how she looks like a self-confident office lady with a sassy touch towards the end. It's not really the image I associated with Namie before, but it fits her surprisingly well! Her natural make-up looks pretty as well. :D The song's little more than background noise though...

new single!
coolness... the preview sounds nice so far.

She looks great in the new CM. The CM is up on her official facebook page for the ones who haven't seen it yet.

i totally loved her in such a role. She's usually just a pretty face doing nothing or just having a set to play with. In that one they gave her some sort of role to play. She looks gorgeous, i love her make-up and styling & surprisingly the song fits the cm video nicely too.

the link for those wo hadn't seen the CM yet.

This was amazing

i love the new cover for the concert!! excited for the new single too. can't wait ^^

CM on YouTube.

"This commercial was shot in Namie's office at Avex. Those papers she threw up into the air = Ayu's contract."


:laugh

"Big Boys Cry" sounds nice! and i like the new KOSE commercial, too. namie's looking beautiful as always! :heart

i can't wait for the new single, as well! very happy that it's a double a-side, too. :)

I like the CM..she looks great...

:roflmao

I apologize if this has been asked before, but does anyone know of a website that has all of Namie's b-sides that never made it to albums? At least the ones from the Style era onwards; I'd love to listen to them.

lmao :lech

that site is hilarious LOLOL!!!!!!

^Isn't it wonderful?
I love how, whenever he makes fun of namie, he still loves her.

The cm is so cuuute

Damn...

I wish she was my boss lol

guys do any of you know where this photo originally comes from?

The TW press of 5 Major Domes Tour 2012 will be released on 3/22 and there will be the DVD and 2CD+DVD versions~

^ Yeah, I just noticed the "+2CD" on the facebook post and got a little excited. If it's audio of the concert then I would be so happy. If only they did that for her 2010 and 2011 tours.

thank you!!!

Random: I recently discovered a site called Hypejar and I added the 20th Anniversary Best as a product: http://www.hypejar.com/Namie-Amuro-5...niversary-Best

Hype it!

(FYI, Hypejar is great for keeping track of movie, music, product releases that users add, then others can discuss it, "hype" it, add content, etc.)

Hey, anybody else like the non-"+2cd" cover more of the new 5 Domes Tour release? Also do we know what the first press poster looks like yet? Thinking of preordering it with the poster, but only if i like it enough.

Oh and are there any wallpapers out from this release yet? I want some for my laptop.

God, this about the exact time I became a Namie fan; she is forever my pop diva goddess.

^Wow... makes me feel so old. I got into Namie (and L'Arc~en~Ciel) in 1997. :P

I have SUCH a good feeling about the new single. I hope it doesn't let me down!

It does sound good on the Kose CM, I'm just disappointed that it won't come in a CD+DVD variant. *pouts*

I dont buy singles, so the format doesnt bother me. I just hope theyre good songs I can look forward to being on her next album. I loved Damage, which i already have downloaded. :D

Big Boys Cry / Beautiful Cover
http://i.imgur.com/o0ZKLKz.jpg

^ Just saw it on FB. DAMN. Best Namie cover in a long, long, long time <3

(P.S. I gave out the most stereotypical gay guy gasp when I saw this xD)

Love it! She looks amazing and I love the orange

Lol the diamonds. I don't really like it since it looks so cheap.

OMG AMAZING

Really nice cover, her best in a long time =)

She is cute but it looks so cheap lol

It looks like a bad fanmade cover lol so cheap. But the picture is nice, she looks pretty :)

Yeah i agree, she looks STUNNING but the cover looks pretty tacky. It's like her "All For You" cover, just with diamonds instead of feathers.

OMG I LOVE THE COVER :O

The colours and simplicity of the cover make me think of her late 90's/early 2000's covers, like "SOMETHING 'BOUT THE KISS". For what it is, I like it.
