So there's 14 songs?

The previews are actually disappointing and I flirted with the idea of cancelling my pre order.

ayu_ready? 30th April 2015 05:29 PM

and I love the preview absolutely

stickyrice 30th April 2015 05:36 PM

B Who I Want 2 B sounds like it's going to be amazing. Reminds me a bit of SOPHIE. And finally a ballad by Namie that I'll actually enjoy. I've never been a big fan of her ballads but Anything sounds really nice... cheesy but nice. Birthday sounds exactly how I expected it to be lol

I'm really interested in Space Invader the most. I already overplayed Emeli Sande's version of What I Did For Love so Namie's version is whatever :\ Overall though, it's a Namie album by the numbers and I'm okay with that haha

AyuHamasaki01 30th April 2015 05:39 PM

I really hope B Who I Want 2 B is a full track.

omg I'm so excited loved everything I heard!! Some sounded different than I had imagined but I'm really looking forward to June 10th! I don't know if I'll like it more than FEEL, but I know I'll enjoy it for sure <3

I thought it was a joke when I saw people on twitter saying there was a David Guetta song in the album lol

Wasn't expecting previews all at once... I guess I'm gonna skip them as I did with A ONE, even tho I have already heard the Photogenic snippet and also the short one of Stranger

Corvina 30th April 2015 06:34 PM

Hm, Idk what to feel with these previews.

I already like them more than FEEL.
But that wasn't hard as I don't like FEEL much as you know. xD
Fly, Scream and Space Invader sound amazing.
The rest - we will see.

The previews have potential but I just cannot stand all the Engrish this time around. These songs would sound so much less sloppy in Japanese.

lol edit: I take it back. Pretty much every preview from the second half is a noisy hot mess. The first half has potential.

AyuHamasaki01 30th April 2015 07:09 PM

After Uncontrolled and FEEL you'd think her pronunciation would be better :laugh

Delicious n Bold 30th April 2015 07:13 PM

Did ai sabotage Namie's chances at getting album of the year?
Waiting for nintendo's/chocopocky's responses tbh.

Tom Punks 30th April 2015 07:16 PM

^ So far none of the divas' albums this year have been remotely worthy of that title.

tenshi no hane 30th April 2015 07:33 PM

I love the previews~ Why is the release date so far awayyyy. I hope it gets an early digital release or something.

pommy48 30th April 2015 07:35 PM

I need someone to hack into Dimension Point and get the album :laugh

KLJames 30th April 2015 07:35 PM

so its a full eng album? coz i heard no jpn lyrics at all (perhaps a little bit in "Golden Touch" "Stranger") ...

only excited for "Fashionista" "Stranger", hopefully "B Who I Want 2 B" be as weird as it can ...

"Birthday" as bad as expected, just like P!nk's Raise Your Glass + Katy Perry's TGIF + Taylor Swift's 22 ...

"It" and "Scream" keep reminded me "Go Round" and "YEAH-OH", and plz tell me they wrote wrong lyrics for "Scream", "..i know it is there so now scream it.." she sound like "..i know it is it so now seen it.." ...

sorry for "What I Did For Love" cover, only Emeli Sandé strong vocal can handle that dull/ordinary/typical melody ...

TheRainbow 30th April 2015 07:37 PM

I want to like it, but not too interested on first listen. :/ I like Fly though.

lastminute 30th April 2015 07:44 PM

"Fashionista" is EVERYTHING I need in life, queen amuro delivered.

attractive nausea 30th April 2015 07:47 PM

Am i the only one who think it's a little bit "rude" to cover such a recent song? To me a cover is supposed to pay a tribute to the song, not just replace the vocals. If I was the original singer i'd think "Oh this bitch thought her vocals would fit better and include it in her album, ok"

There ain't only one song that i'd think "ha it sucks" when i listen to the preview, however they all sounded the same? I don't know, some did make an impression on me, but some sounded pretty forgettable, i'll see with the full album! Also meh @ all the english :(

Yes, you are....

...jk. I never thought of it that way tbh, but I can understand your pov.

Gustavopc 30th April 2015 07:54 PM

I don't see a problem at all, it's like a Japanese version (or for Japan) of the song, since it's credited as David Guett feat. Namie, so it's not an actual cover...

Zeke. 30th April 2015 08:00 PM

Previews aren't bad. I actually like the arrangments and production a lot, but Namie's vocals are such a hit and miss for me. It's like, I feel like her voice doesn't reach me. She has no emotion and her voice sounds the same no matter what note she sings. And when she's belting it she sounds like a cat that's getting her tail pulled.

The English is way too much. I can't take her seriously cause she's like babbling and slurring the words together. Plus the subject matter is way to American garbage (raise your glass, etc.).
