In FAKE, for example, it lists it on the website as FAKE feat. 安室奈美恵 / AI. The part before the / is the title of the song itself, while what comes after it is the artist (which makes sense since it was AI's single). It shouldn't all just be put in the "song" field with Namie as the sole artist. The rest of the songs should be tagged the same way.

I agree with what you did on tracks 1-3 & 9 though. I know it officially should have the "feat." with Namie under "artist", but there are enough ****ed up tags on this album and I figure I'd do it that way since that's at least how "feat.s" on American albums always work.

I like having my library clean kthxbai

As with any tag war, tag it however you want. You are the one that cares more about how it looks, might as well make it to your taste.

I'm liking those sales numbers :) But where are the live performances :(

So I listened to all the new tracks in HQ and my opinion hasn't really changed for any of them. "make it happen" would be my favourite while the other tracks make me think of cheaply produced C-Pop songs. "#1" is cool because it has a SUITE CHIC vibe to it but that Chemistry guy's voice does not suit the song well at all.

Incredible project overall though. I've always admired Namie for her collaborative efforts. She supports other talents, vice versa and it makes things interesting for everyone.

Only stating the official way since you said it "should" be tagged the way you said :rolleyes

koumori 28th April 2011 09:07 AM

I tagged them all "Namie Amuro" :laugh I'm not really tagging-OCD, I only care that the album is with all the other Namie albums in my iTunes.

Btw, tagging isn't worth getting *****y about lol

1 48,489 Checkmate! AVT 11/4/27
安室奈美恵

93,168 + 48,489 = 141,657

^ HOLY CRAP! Those sales are incredible, especially considering it's only a collaboration best. It's so pleasing as a Namie fan to know that Japan still loves her so much after almost 20 years (if you count the SUPER MONKEY'S) in the music industry.

So, so true. Although now I sound like a hypocrite because I started this thing rofl.

Wow at her sales. Pretty amazing <3

AyuHamasaki01 28th April 2011 11:39 AM

Those sales are awesome! Way to go Namie! :yatta

AyusakiFan 28th April 2011 12:16 PM

Namie is smoking the charts and leaving the others behind in her dust. There's no way she's not going to be #1 this week. She's doing awesome, especially for a collaboration album.

kayokyokufan 28th April 2011 03:34 PM

I haven't been keeping up with other jpop lately so I'm guessing from what guys are saying that collaboration albums usually don't do this well. I'm glad that this album is selling so well.

KremlinChaos 28th April 2011 04:34 PM

I'm loving this album. It's so great to have a collection of her collabs <3.

Deserving those sales so ****ing much.

I've been listening to her discography lately and rediscovered the love for oldschool stuff. Concentration 20 is one of the best albums ever made. :heart

Thank you for stating that, I believe Concentration 20 was one of the best albums ever made too, imo it was much better than Sweet 19 Blues, but hey, the best albums are always the ones with the least recognition.

Chiharo 28th April 2011 07:49 PM

I prefer SWEET 19 BLUES waaaay over Concentration 20, even if I still do like all of the songs from it. But that's just having different taste.

I'm glad about the sales of Checkmate! even if I honestly didn't like it that much.

bondingo 28th April 2011 07:54 PM

I think SWEET 19 BLUES was an AWFUL album, especially for a debut. It's just kind of a mess with pretty much only the singles as standouts. Concentration 20 was an awesome album that took a lot of unconventional risks, and they paid off.
