^not sure, but that's what someone typed up in the Love_Enhanced wikipedia entry. maybe she just wish to re-sing the song, i can't really tell the difference between the 2 versions anyway.

Yep that's true, she did say that in some interview but i lost the interview n cant remember what interview it was
Anyway acougan, how couldnt u find the difference between 2 version?
Break the Rules version was baddddddddd, her vocal is so so so thin
while HimAWArI of LE has a perfect as well as her current vocal!
I always skip the BtR version while playing the album. One more thing, LE also marked HimAWArI as New Vocal in the back cover



Btw HAPPIE NEW YEAR guyzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz
May the best things come 2 us on 2009 as well as our beloved/single mom NAMIE!

ya himAWAri is one of my favourite song from namie. the song is calm, emotional, and gentle. i love LE version more, the voice is much much clearer while BtR version sounds like... really in flu

Namie really added the fruityness that NEW LOOK needs when it is being performed. Nice, Namie.

Of course I bet she will perform it tonight too. Lolz. It's the number 1 hit of the year (for her), so don't complain.

EDIT: Happy new year. 2008 shall be forever known as the year of Namie. Let's hope she kicks ass next year too!

haha, so she did perf part of RS :) no white boots though and all her tattoos are covered, maybe the stage was very cold? :P

Happy New Year fellow Namie fans! <3

Thanks, I thought it would be fitting not to mention lulzy.

The CDTV performance was FIERCE, really. There's nothing more to say. Just see it for yourself:

NAMIE the energizer bunny y/y?

great performance! i saw medley but i didnt expect 60s70s80s even though i SHould have!
love her slick arm movements a lot...very nice!

:laugh That gif is awesome.
From what show is it?

I loved that whole performance!
At the end of NL when her eyes closed and went straight to the ground looked a little weird but cute. And she gave a winky hehe.

Finally I get to hear RS and WAF live. Force! and Force!

the CDTV performance is awesome!
I love the outfits :luv2 She did look tired though.

Namie looked so scared holding the firework. :D

NOTE: the video is slightly off-sync

it's cute that she & TK were dressed so similar! 11 years later, she is again dressed in black-&-white for the award show :P

wow.. love the poster!! ♥

^since you mentioned that, yeah, i feel it sometimes too!

isnt it weird namie to sing a higher key for some song like shine more, and a lower key for pink key in concerts? its weird, shine more is fine but pink key would be weird

i'm getting sick of 60s70s80s :(
me want some new songs >.<"
