The new album will be also be available through the new "PLAYBUTTON" media player on June 27th!!
We just recently made the announcement regarding the release of the CD and CD+DVD versions of the new album on June 27th, but now, with the addition of "PLAYBUTTON", the new album will be available in 3 different versions!!
"PLAYBUTTON" is a stylish new media player in the shape of a bottle cap badge which allows you to listen to the music just by hooking up your headphones.
You can recharge "PLAYBUTTON" by using the dedicated USB cable and the battery lasts up to about 5 hours once fully charged!
The unique media player with its bottle cap badge design, fits right in as an accessory item.
The "PLAYBUTTON" version of the album will have the same songs as the CD version, but will be specially priced at 1,980 yen (excluding tax) to commemorate Namie's 20th Anniversary!!
We hope that everyone will enjoy Namie's new album and also the "PLAYBUTTON" themselves as part of your daily fashion!

ABOUT NAMIE
Spoiler:
http://namie-fans.net/gallery/albums...e_tour/623.jpg
Amuro Namie (安室奈美恵) is a Japanese "Hip-Pop" (Hip-Hop / Pop) artist from Okinawa. She debuted in a eurobeat group called the SUPER MONKEYS comprised of her and her classmates from the Okinawa Actors' School in 1992 with the single Koi no Cute Beat / Mister U.S.A.. Amuro became the leader of the group, and found success after their cover of TRY ME ~Watashi wo Shinjite~, which peaked at #8. In 1996, Amuro switched to avex trax and debuted with the single Body Feels EXIT, with her first avex album selling over 3.3 million copies. Her biggest single, the ballad CAN YOU CELEBRATE?, was the top single of 1997. After marriage and personal tragedy, Amuro continued to adopt a more R&B/hip-hop based style of music. She has sold over 27,322,155 copies in Japan alone.

I like ALL of the logos, it's a really hard decision.

I ended up voting for no. 3 though because it incorporated all of her singles and I'm a sucker for that haha.

love in music 16th June 2012 07:36 PM

I'm so behind on Namie.. didn't even know she was coming out with a new album. I hope "Hot girls" is good.. the title sounds promising.

Lady~Deviance 16th June 2012 08:01 PM

I voted for No.4. Very classy yet timeless.

I would LOVE to get a t-shirt with that design logo on it. :luv2

Kouyou 16th June 2012 08:01 PM

I voted for 1, 2, and 6. 1 is definitely my favorite, but I like the way 2 incorporated a girly aspect with the pink and the boot in the zero.

Let's Go sounds really good, the beat is amazing. But it's my least favorite out of the one's we've heard so far. It doesn't sound as memorable as Spotlight & Only You.
Also the "take me higher" part reminds me too much of.. well Higher lol. I'll properly end up loving it when the album leaks though.

everlastingRAINBOW 19th June 2012 05:31 PM

Another freaking hot track. This woman can do no wrong.

Not Fade Away 19th June 2012 05:48 PM

OMG. I LOVE IT.

^She really CAN do no wrong.

Ahhhhhhh it's sooo good.

Delicious n Bold 19th June 2012 06:39 PM

Let's go is AWESOME!

I still think that dog song was the worst songs I've heard in ages. None of the ballads did it for me at all. Tempest wasn't that bad, though. At least Higher was good. Why its not on the album I do not know.
Now that I've heard every song, I have to say that In the Spotlight, Break It, Naked, YEAH-OH, Fight Together and Let's go are the BEST songs on the album

So out of 12 songs already heard, that's 6. If Hot Girls is any good, that's more than half of the album... hmm, that's the largest number of tracks I've ever liked from a Namie album.

I'm actually kind of excited...

everlastingRAINBOW 19th June 2012 07:19 PM

^ I'm easy, I like all xD

Not Fade Away 19th June 2012 07:53 PM

^Ditto. xD

SKYia 19th June 2012 08:20 PM

Let's go it very nice, I'm not crazy about it but it's interesting.

Benikari47 19th June 2012 08:23 PM

^^^Me too xD

For me SitDown is so so so so much better than any of her singles in 2006/2007(which were FUNKY TOWN & CAN'T SLEEP), and also the boring Sexy Girl in 2008~ SitDown has an interesting melody, not like her usual songs, which makes me love it!
Higher is boring for me, too. haha x)
And Let's Go sounds AWESOMMMMMMMME <3

Kouyou 19th June 2012 09:21 PM

Just preordered Uncontrolled. :love I'm so excited for this album to come out, it's going to be spectacular.

How can you not like Higher :o :shakehead


Let's Go is awesome . Better than OY and ITS ;D

Rocky Raven 19th June 2012 09:33 PM

haha ^ I said it's boring, not that i don't like it x)

And of course if she sing it I'd still love to listen to. But I don't have any pity feeling for it not to be included on the new album :P

So many great songs for this alb already <3

pommy48 20th June 2012 12:06 AM

Higher is like...the best thing that ever happened to me :laugh

I love the "oh oh" parts :luv2 It's my ringtone

And I love how she also sings "take me higher" in Let's Go!

Still strongly considering buying this together with Crystal Kay's new album...surprisingly Yesasia is the cheapest between them, amazon.co.jp, and CDJ, but only bc YA will give me free shipping. Does their free shipping take forever?

emi♡ 20th June 2012 01:47 AM

^I think it depends on where you live.

Personally, I live in California, and it only takes a few days. I've gotten stuff in as little as two days.

But I know other people have had a much worse time with their shipping times.

Pieces_of_SEVEN 20th June 2012 01:56 AM

^^Probably not much difference for me then...since we're in the same country I'm guessing. Hm...gotta decide between amazon and yesasia.

Do you get a poster if you order from amazon? I can't tell...but I don't think so. Can someone just confirm for me?

Kana×Shin 20th June 2012 02:40 AM

For me, YesAsia's free shipping took almost three weeks when I pre-ordered Party Queen and I live in Arizona. That's why I went with CDJapan this time around. :tired

emi♡ 20th June 2012 04:27 AM

yeah, I was gonna say...YA has a warehouse in LA which is only a few hours from me lol so...

thing is, I think sometimes with new releases, they dont always ship them to the warehouse here beforehand.

I usually don't use them for new releases, since, that always seems a bit up in the air to me.

tinka69 20th June 2012 04:34 AM

Wait, how come Higher isn't on there?! 0_0

tinka69 20th June 2012 04:37 AM

lol the only song i like from this era isn't even on the album >_< what is this?!

S4MU3L 20th June 2012 05:26 AM

Because is a b-side

Me, Myself & Music 20th June 2012 05:40 AM

The Let's Go PV looks like it's gonna be good!! Hope it doesn't disappoint.

Love the song too.

Btw, Let's Go PV preview, luv it <3


prussian blue 20th June 2012 06:36 AM

She's pretty with the bang, but I'm not into the concept. It seems like it's the most least expensive among the new videos

tenshi no hane 20th June 2012 07:36 AM

The PV looks great :heart Let's Go sounds alright, I need to hear it in full to judge it properly.

Benikari47 20th June 2012 07:37 AM

She looks amazing <3
The video seems pretty simplistic, actually reminds me a tiny bit of BENI's Crazy Girl video. I really like it so far.

Corvina 20th June 2012 11:02 AM

I really like the PV preview.
Love her look there!
Might become my favourite PV from the new ones.

Thanks to deebosco at JPC!

Doesn't sound bad, I'm curious how Namie's version will sound like.
Though I actually don't know how he's able to know her japanese lyrics except he already listend to it. :shrug

AyuHamasaki01 20th June 2012 11:35 AM

I love the Let's Go PV preview :heart

I really REALLY hope that the Jpn lyrics are wrong, i mean, how come such a hot song like this doesn't have any English words/phrases in its lyrics?
I love the line "Hot Girls make the world go round" Hope she'll keep it T_T

Minttulatte 20th June 2012 12:33 PM

I must resist until 27th... ;___;

I actually can't imagine a Namie song without some English, too!
Somehow I'm sure she keeps the english chorus, just fits to how she and her team are doing her songs.
Those japanese lines are about the same anyway.

Pieces_of_SEVEN 20th June 2012 01:27 PM

I think the engrish she's doing on these new songs is really bad. Granted, it's a tad better than before, but the accent is still way too heavy and it's way too hard to figure out what she's singing. smh #fail :/

bondingo 20th June 2012 03:11 PM

^ Pretty sure "smh" and "#fail" should be reserved for people who use hashtags in forum posts and not legendary superstars without flaws.

Rocky Raven 20th June 2012 03:48 PM

^ QFT

Anyway her official youtube channel just upload this, unfortunately they still un-reveal the PV for Hot Girls & Let's Go in this clip T_T

Beauty4123 20th June 2012 04:51 PM

"Let's Go" sounds really good so far! and the PV preview looks nice, too. :)

freedreamer 20th June 2012 04:53 PM

Let's Go is TRULY THE BEST NEW TRACK SO FAR!!!!!!!!!! LOVE THE ATTITUDE AND FEEL. and Its a japanese song :)

edit: that special digest of Uncontrolled is AMAZING. High quality ONLY YOU sounds really gd.

AyuHamasaki01 20th June 2012 05:29 PM

Wasn't the Let's Go PV suppose to be released today? Or tomorrow?

AyuGAME 20th June 2012 05:37 PM

Love Let's Go

Linoa62 20th June 2012 06:18 PM
