hayasaki 1st October 2015 11:51 PM

Voted for Ayu! I'm curious how this will turn out. I know they're from different worlds but they always find a way lol. Anyway, voted for Madonna and Lady gaga

SURREAL__RAINBOW 2nd October 2015 09:17 AM

i voted for 浜崎あゆみ 3 times

ayumisrael 2nd October 2015 09:57 AM

I hope that they won't disqualify a vote if you put the same artist more than once though and any ayu vote is important.

Miduhyo 2nd October 2015 11:53 AM

Ayu
Koda Kumi
BoA

If there were any of them I'd pretty much die. Those three plus Namie are the reason I'm as in to Jpop as I am now. I need a collab by any of them noooooooooooooow~~~

Heavenly 2nd October 2015 02:07 PM

I hope Ayu or Kuu will be in high position... I'd die to see and hear a collab with Namie and any of those 2 !
Maybe we can expect a trio... Like she did with Wonder Woman (AI + Anna Tsuchiya)

pimenta 2nd October 2015 02:50 PM

Voted for Ayu, EXILE and Kuu :D

It's nice that Namie actually have polls before releasing stuff to know exactly what the public wants.

Gustavopc 2nd October 2015 05:02 PM

I wonder if they're gonna publish the results, I am really curious to see the numbers or at least the ranking

KLJames 2nd October 2015 05:58 PM

They published the results for the ballads' poll, so hopefully they'll publish this one as well... I really wanna see the results too.

DevilsClap 2nd October 2015 10:37 PM

the results would be interesting to see for sure.
I also voted for Ayu

NintendoHTF1242 2nd October 2015 11:16 PM

I want her to collab with Thelma Aoyama so that she can rise her flop career back from the grave but she's beyond salvation God bless

Voted for Kuu, BENI, and BoA

Gustavopc 2nd October 2015 11:43 PM

^ Lets make a charity project out of this poll and use it to ressurect Thelma, mini and Maki Goto's career

hayasaki 3rd October 2015 02:30 AM

^served well with CK. LOL Don't forget Yuna Ito. She's one i want to resurrect most. LOL

Its definitely checkmate 2 coming y'all!

melissalove 5th October 2015 08:24 PM

Wasn't namie the queen of hip-pop, now she's the queen of legend. weird

edit: namie sounds awesome, love the song.

Delicious n Bold 5th October 2015 08:35 PM

^her titles change like the weather

Also what the hell does it mean to be a queen of legend? They should have just said "She IS a legend" because calling her queen of legend strongly implies that she's dead. Did Namie die long ago and now she's a legend from after the period in which she died? Is she historical but unauthenticated? Are they secretly shading her by calling her a flop now and reminiscing when Namie topped the Oricon and actually sold lots? Are they on to the fans with the fans calling her dead all the time and secretly alluding to that? Or is she just the queen of a generic noun?

S4MU3L 6th October 2015 03:57 AM

Queen of legend sounds very engrish, and Namie is the queen of engrish, so thats why she is the queen of legend.

You welcome

pimenta 6th October 2015 04:04 AM

Namie isn't the queen of Engrish though, Kuu is the eternal queen of Engrish for me haha

queen of legend is a rather weird title to own...

jiarongisme 6th October 2015 04:11 AM

Taiwan loves their weird titles :laugh

hayasaki 6th October 2015 10:26 AM

holy cow Namie sounded like SHAKIRA on 07:00 mark on that song preview LOL is that Namie though? I can't differentiate Namie and that SHOWYAs voice on that preview

Miduhyo 6th October 2015 10:35 AM

That song is my life now. i love the original. I love the collab version. It's just an awesome song. Love it so much :love

You welcome

Maybe it's just a translation error... They could title "Queen of Legend" with th meaning of "Legendary Queen" in mind (in French, "Queen of Legend" is "Reine de Légende" and it's quite a synonym of "Reine Légendaire/Legendary Queen").
I don't know how you can say it in Taiwanese, maybe the mistake comes from a wrong translation.

Meat Pao 7th October 2015 06:01 AM

Posted this on JPC so thought I'd share it here too:

Just came back from Osaka where I went for the Oct 4 Osaka-jo Hall show. Namie was AMAZING! I was FLOORED by the light design and staging – I was in the stands so I had a good view of the stage. The LED-rimmed honeycombs are actually really good when seen live in action (even more honeycombs actually came down juxtaposed against the screen midway through the show, and they used that to optimise some of the screen visuals – pretty cool!) . In still photos I thought they'd be underwhelming. Ok some other stuff I liked that I'll put in spoilers (including where the stilt walkers actually come in, i think someone mentioned not knowing where they were in the show):

Spoiler:
What I Did For Love made a really good opening; it flowed in really well with the opening video. In the opening video a silver jaguar runs through this white, maze-like area before it transforms into Namie's silhouette (which the crowd then goes crazy over). The "camera" pans to an aerial view of the area and the "maze" was actually the words "LIVEGENIC" (In a pretty cool, sans-serif font, I must say (lol occupational hazard, sorry).) The whole stage blackens and the opening of the song starts. Namie stands at the uppermost level of the stage against the screen, which slowly slides open to a plain white background so you only see Namie's silhouette and she sings the verse until the beat drops and shit gets down.

I remember someone mentioning that he has no idea why there were stilt walkers credited in the pamphlet – during What I Did For Love, two gigantic figures were at the base of the stage completely stationary, so we all thought they were simply stage props. They looked like white, giant robots (with elongated arms), coiled from head to toe with LED wires, and a lit red heart in the middle. After What I Did For Love, Close your eyes, close to you starts playing and the props started moving which shocked the shit outta everybody! They even walked to the audience area throughout the song and wandered around the space in front the first row (they had a little choreography too).

The raised platform at the end of the runway stage is a square with a 2-step staircase on all 4 sides, pretty cool.

During Dr. they first used the invisible LED wires above the end of the runway, so it looked like lights floating mid-air which were really cool (Did she use this for Live Style 2014 too? I don't remember.).

Namie danced her ass off the most during Say the word and (I think) BLACK DIAMOND

I don't know if this was mentioned before but there were giant balloons with mini heart balloons in them bouncing around the hall during Birthday, and after a while I think staff members pop them so the mini hearts will come out. Namie actually changes into her encore outfit on stage, just like in the PV, during the saxophone part with the little changing room with pink dividers! The screen cameras zoomed in on her when she puts on her shirt (so we saw her bare shoulders lol) and the crowd went wild. Pretty cool.

I think that was it! I'll add more if I think of other stuff.

S4MU3L 9th October 2015 02:00 AM

Ohh that sounds pretty cool!! and im not jealous at all!!

Pieces_of_SEVEN 10th October 2015 05:25 PM

My body is ready for a new single. I didn't get into REVOLUTION too much, and I guess that was really Crystal's single anyway.

S4MU3L 11th October 2015 02:10 PM

Love the video for B Who I Want 2 B, though I'm not sure I've played the song since it came out...

UHPlus 14th October 2015 02:13 AM

I'm underwhelmed


Beauty4123 14th October 2015 03:15 AM

I thought the PV was very cute! And that's just what they made Namie be, in the PV: super cute! :heart I especially love her with that pink long hair & blue outfit. I've also really come to love "B Who I Want 2 B" over the past few months, and I love it even more now, after watching the PV. :)

pimenta 14th October 2015 03:50 AM

I kinda like it actually, it's fun.

S4MU3L 14th October 2015 04:02 AM

I like it too, and the artwork is very good.

Delicious n Bold 14th October 2015 06:14 AM

Not even the full thing...

OyTony 14th October 2015 08:22 AM

The video is fun. I guess they will put the full version on Checkmate II. Or a new version of _genic like they did with Uncontrolled.

melissalove 14th October 2015 05:18 PM

Love it!! ;)

lunlunlunlunlun 15th October 2015 12:00 AM

Loving Amuro Chan's signature catwalk and her stiff(-ish) improvised dancing, totally her! Can't wait for the choreography part tho ;) Sure it gonna b good

Miduhyo 15th October 2015 03:44 AM

cute video, still hate that song, it's soooo annoying lol

DevilsClap 15th October 2015 07:15 PM

As of late the song gets stuck in my head very often.
The PV is really cute.

Delicious n Bold 15th October 2015 07:41 PM

Thanks for the full video!!
I still like this song most from genic, I don't know why. It's like a Falling KylieMinogue94 experience.

AyuGAME 16th October 2015 03:52 AM

Namie's creative team is so clever...they know how to promote her and make her stuff has a longevity factor...

Miduhyo 16th October 2015 04:44 AM

^ definitely. Ayu should borrow them for a moment or two. XD

This song. Lord this song. I hated it with a fiery passion when I first heard it but now it gets stuck in my head. Especially the "if you think I need you boy. You clearly made a big mistake." Like, I'm sitting here at work right now and it's just repeating in my head. Haha.

Beauty4123 16th October 2015 05:37 AM

I don't think I've ever loved an animated PV this much, in like...my whole 23 years of existence. :laugh It's just sooo awesome! And cute. waaay too cute! :heart :heart They've totally pictured Namie perfectly in anime-ish form & I think because of this video, "B Who I Want 2 B" is inside my head more than ever, now. :P Love it! :inlove

"If you think I need you boy, you krary made a big mistake"
Iconique tbh
The beat is still fire tbh

Miduhyo 16th October 2015 09:55 AM

^ haha xD

That's the thing with this song for me, though. I can't tell if it's the kind of fire that's like: 'Holy sheep and Macaroni, dowse me in this s*** it's so good!' or if it's the kind that's like: 'Hot damn. Call the police and the fireman. No. Seriously. Call them. Like. Right now. This s*** is terrible.'

But, to be honest, that's how I feel about most of _genic. It's so bad it's good.

NintendoHTF1242 16th October 2015 04:27 PM

Gonna be honest, I haven't even listened to _genic yet. But that B Who I Want 2 B song is so awful it's great. Only Queen Namie can do this lmao

thinkingoutloud89 16th October 2015 04:42 PM

I played every song between 100 and 200 times and payed my justice. I'm still into Photogenic, birthday, Golden Touch and BWIW2B. As for the rest ... I think the album needs some time to rest now. I'm still not over the fact she betrayed me with the pre-announced albumdescription and teaser only to give me a weaker FEEL.

ayu_ready? 24th October 2015 06:45 PM

I think it a really cool PV, fun and cute

oaristos 24th October 2015 07:08 PM

God, I tried many times but I just can't stand B Who I Want 2 B :bbarf

The picture is probably made by Namie News Network, but the rumour about the new single sounds strong and started in Baidu.

chocopockymaster 25th October 2015 09:09 PM

Same thing happened before _genic's release with the wonky gene-ish graphic so...maybe it's too early to discount it?

Minttulatte 26th October 2015 01:14 AM

I wouldn't mind if there was a new single coming. She hasn't released anything for months now. :)

Utena 26th October 2015 01:50 AM

the rumor comes from the same person who first talked about _genic and REVOLUTION. Still a rumor but most likely to become real.

adantatu2 26th October 2015 01:58 AM

I like the title of both songs !!! I hope it's real.

Hope it is true about the new single, and we get more info soon.

Delicious n Bold 26th October 2015 04:03 AM

Maybe checkmate 2 won't happen and we'll get a new normal album instead. Im probably the only one who doesnt want checkmate 2. I remember seeing checkmate for dirt cheap in Japan but passed it up and went to buy old hitomi albums instead.

Miduhyo 26th October 2015 07:40 AM

Oh God, I hope this is real. And I really like that pic they have with it. If it's a cover that's pretty cool. If it's just advertisement, it's still pretty cool. You know what, it's just cool no matter what.

Gustavopc 26th October 2015 11:54 AM

Well, the collab poll is open until the end of the year, there could be time enough time for even two singles before having all material getting done for release :P The more the better tbh hahahaha

chocopockymaster 26th October 2015 01:55 PM

It's getting to be about time for a new "best" release too...dun dun dunnnnnn

pimenta 26th October 2015 05:20 PM

BLACK MAKEUP is an interesting title...

Well, if a new December single is true, we should get official news of it soon.

Not sure that's a good idea though, last time she released a single before a best the singles were not included in her next studio album, and I'm still sad about that >_<

jiarongisme 26th October 2015 05:51 PM

Still waiting on that part 3 of the Dr. story.

Gustavopc 26th October 2015 05:53 PM

^
^ Break It / Get Myself Back were release before Checkmate! and still made it to Uncontrolled unfortunately, and TSUKI did not it make it to a studio album, but it did made to Ballada, plus BRIGHTER DAY was released after the best and either way it didn't make to the album... I guess it was more due to the concept she wanted for _genic than cause there was a Best between albums :P

they might be boring but they are done well. Clean and neat.
