Like the Spring cover. But its nothing overly special.
|
Those JELLY scans <3
|
I really like this album, in my opinion is better than Uncontrolled (maybe because Uncontrolled includes NAKED and Get Myself Back, and i just can't hear those songs).
My favourites from FEEL are Alive, Big Boys Cry and Hands on Me. The only song i don't like is Let me Let you Go. |
^Ur different from me. I ADORE Naked & ESPECIALLY Get Myself Back. :heart
And out of ones you said you liked on Feel, I only agree on HoM. And I :heart LMLYG. :D I'm still trying to get myself into a good half of the album. :( I think CYFTL is starting to grow on me though. ;) |
Shocked to say it but I like "Let Me Let You Go."

I'd say that "Damage" and "Beautiful" wouldn't have been misplaced on this album.
And I'm still eager to see the PV of Beautiful one day... |
FEEL slayed every J-Pop girl in the game

I loved the album so much the first 3 days then got over it. I stopped hearing it for a while and it heard it again today. It's cool but, eh, alright.

i love the Spring magazine previews. very summerish and sweet :) still loving the album alot. can't stop listening to it since its release

I find that photoshopping eyebags out can make someone look kinda weird. If they were really heavy then perhaps they should photoshop it. Those ones there arent particularly bad.
|
^i really don't have a problem with eyebags. You can tone them down if they really distract you, but i personally think they look sexy on quite some asian faces.lol
|
If the eyebags are not dark, they're actually a wanted feature in Asian faces.
Just a cultural difference I guess~ (Though I can never understand the crooked teeth...) |
Anyone knows where I can find correct lyrics for all FEEL songs?

Even though I'm not a big fan of Madonna (never was) I have to agree with you. I normally agree with "J", but to say that "FEEL" is better than Madonna's last 6 albums is nonsensical. "FEEL" is a good album but it lacks the "originality" department big time and pales in comparison to "Confessions On A Dance Floor". :innocent |
I forgot where I read it, but they say that the slight eye bags are sometimes seen as a sign of youth and innocence. I remember seeing makeup tutorials on YouTube on trying to achieve youthful eye bags. LOL
|
I've read that there are two kinds of eyebags: puffy and dark.
It looks like namie has the puffy ones, which, according to Wikipedia, are caused by some nasty things. Also aging. |

Also i think FEEL is good because it's so mainstream. but i have a sense that it's gonna be forgotten very very quickly cuz it really doesn't have any sort of flic that would separate it from the rest of the music industry. It's very western, i mean if it was by someone from western music world i wouldn't even give it aa try....I do enjoy the album because of Namies vocals and they work woth music. from FEEL tour goods https://fbcdn-sphotos-d-a.akamaihd.n...13247848_n.jpg |
I just bought from the Official FB Store (Yay it's online again) the Black shirt & the Cachucha <3 with shipping to Germany - 8650 yen. God, I'm so poor now! :(
If anyone's interested - I'm selling from her 5 Major Domes Tour the Ladie's Shirt in White - :) |

does anyone have HQ JELLY scans?

Well I know Namie either smokes or use to smoke and that can worsen eye bags because Namie looks like she's about to board a plane with all of that luggage beneath her eyes.
|
Why are we complaining about eyebags? As was said before, they are part of her facial structure. The "puffiness" is due to eye shape; the darkness is because of the shadows and angle of the shot. She's literally had the same face the entire time, why is this suddenly an issue lmao

Look Dr. Hatsuyo. Had I known you had a Ph.D in Genetics I would have come to you first right quick for an answer, because as you know being in your profession can be thankless so let me throw a "thank you" your way toot sweet because you seem deprived.
Spoiler:

You should have. Lookin' pretty dumb tbh.
Oh, and you're welcome. http://media.tumblr.com/53f2d0ef0591...vlu1qz4rgp.gif FEEL Tour posters are looking gorgeous! These are definitely my favorite of the last few years. The concept is so cute and the styling is amazing. I hope they add more tour goods soon, though. Not entirely impressed with what they've put out so far (except the bunny ear headband, lol). |
I wish Neonlight Lipstick come out already! I'm addicted to replay this Kose commercial.. any news about release of this song?

Anyway, I'm too lazy to download FEEL but apparently Namie snatched Ayu's entire weave collection with this release alone; can someone upload the album onto a better download site or provide me a link? The one provided on AHS in that topic didn't work for me (and I'm lazy). |

Kinda late to share a opinion, but FEEL it's definitely better than Uncontrolled, tbh it wouldn't be that difficult after the mess that album was.
It's definitely mainstream and I feel that soon it will be forgotten, the kind of sound that will be replaced nearly by something very similar and so on... I'm really sad with this new path that she choosed... but oh well, it's bringing her success, so I can't really blame her for this... I miss the original and Namie style of music, the things that she used to create and were unique and make me feel that nobody except her could sing them. I think P<F was the last movement... Well, enough of this, Hands on Me, Alive, Supernatural Love and LaLaLa stands out, specially the last one, I really like how the music goes on. It could be sang by many mainstream singers but it's still good. Heaven is a mess in the end and Let Me Let You Go it's beautiful, but geez, it seems that her voice is horrible on it, I don't know what they did or probably, didn't do. And the PVs, Alive is really something. I love it. |

It just doesn't feel like Namie anymore. I'm all for changes in music direction, but hers is just so...radical! She went from bad ass to generic pop singer essentially over a few years... I think it is actually to sustain her popularity, and that is completely understandable. If you release same-ish music all the time, people will expect it and become bored. Pop is forever changing and it is hard to keep up with and I praise her for being able to vision the 'in' of now. But as Jyujiw mentioned, it ages very, very quickly... I thnk in the long run, her popularity may fare better if she continued with her own STYLE (hehe). Only 'cause you're recognizable then always, even if you're not popular (which, as we know from the Empress is definitely true), at least your ongoing fans will still attend your concerts, haha. /endopinion. |
I enjoy FEEL immensely, but I also understand where people are coming from when they say it doesn't feel like a Namie album anymore. Although I love how confidently she took on a full EDM, English album, I also hope that her next one has one or two songs at least that are QoHP or Play inspired. :)
|
I rather she did something different than always going for her trademark Hip-Pop. Her Nao'ymt songs started to sound similar and uninspiring.

Totally agree :yes i love whatever Namie comes up with cos she does it with so much conviction. and the production is awesome.

I've been listening to FEEL all day and it's FINALLY clicking with me. However I must admit that Supernatural Love & BBC are still my least liked tracks, but I don't dislike em as much as I used to. :D :D :D :D :D :heart :heart :heart :heart :heart

Hoping to receive my copy of Feel any day now...any...day...now... |

"It Brits"? whats that supposed to even mean....? Still like that pic of her. :)
Also, it's official. After all this time I'm finally 100% hooked on this album. :D :heart :blove |
The NUMERO picture looks nice, but i was hoping for something fierce.
And i don't care for the muted colors, makes the photo feel kinda grandma like for me lol. Her smile though <3 |

^I don't use iTunes and already have the album, but Congratulations Namie!!! :D :D :D :D :D :heart :heart :heart :heart :heart

FEEL is good as hell. It's absolutely flawless and made me remember why this girl snatched my #2 fav J-Pop singer position from Ayu in 2008. XD

Hey the Namie Facebook Store is back open and listing the new FEEL Tour Goods!!! :D I just ordered the stuff I want. :D
|
I guess I'm in the minority. I didn't get the sense that Nao'ymt's songs were getting stale personally. :shrug
I hope Namie hires new producers that can give her that "unique edge" again. But for now it seems she's just blending in with the rest of the crowd. This is a normal process an artist goes through and I'm sure her next album will be less mainstream. :yes I just hope we hear "Neonlight Lipstick" in full before the end of the year. The fact that her team released a snippet of it so darn soon could mean it might be a digital release or single later on in the year. Let's hope. :D |

^same.
EDIT: Btw, curious, but am I the only one who thinks the BEST pictures of Namie are her casual ones? She's such a little sweetheart seeing her as her normal plain self. :heart |

I liked FEEL just fine, it's just that I'm used to perfection with Namie, and FEEL is just far from it. There's no comparison with everything else she did before, minus Uncontrolled. But I surely appreciated the evolution, and the fact that this time, on the contrary of Uncontrolled, they actually tried the best they could deliver with the new style. Sure, she still hasn't mastered it yet, but it was a nice attempt, and I'm sure she can make this style her own if she does her best. Frankly, since I've seen the hard work, I'm satisfied for now, and I'm sure there's plenty of room for improvement. I'm waiting for the next release to say if she needs to drop this style imo or not. |
Finally got my copy of FEEL the other day and what I was most excited about was finally getting to see the lyrics for myself. I was so wrong about so many things...
Also noticed that they use "colour" in Alive and "colors" in Stardust. |
So you still cant buy the album in Canada and the US.

^ Correct o_o
|
^Then its not really a proper international release of the album!! O_O
|
It's so funny that it's not available in one of the biggest markets. That's backwards.
|
^And does she think she doesnt have any fans over here or something....?
|
It could be some sort of licensing problem too.

Wait.. I just remembered. New albums only show up on iTunes in Canada & the US every Tuesday(?) The same thing happened with Perfume so maybe we just have to wait. It's available in Europe though

randomly found this on youtube. I didn't know that Namie had a puppy. |

Her dog(s) was also in the "Dr." Music Video.

Aww that's adorable to know!

^to add to that:

Numero previews are perfect. She looks so adorable in the first outfit!
I love that they put her in more edgy fashion than "SPRiNG," "Steady," "SCawaii!," etc. do. She suits it so much better than the cutesy styles she's usually given. |
I like her sweeter cuter photo shoots actually. I think it's mostly cuz whenever I see stuff of her just being herself she is this sweet adorable naturally beautiful woman whom u can't help but love. :heart

I'm not that fond of the shoot so far, the styling is great but i'm not liking the subdued coloring, it's a tad too lifeless for me.
The second picture is beautiful though, she's working that fur coat! Just made a cover for Alive using one of the amazing pictures from the JELLY shoot, i incorporated some elements from the song and music video as well! http://i44.tinypic.com/2eztqg8.png And a FEEL version: http://i44.tinypic.com/11w33md.png |
