I wonder what the photographer said to Namie to make her do that pose on the CD only picture...
|
I feel like she's posed for another cover or for something else like that. It seems familiar

wating for the collabo like crazy
|
Sounds great. I really love the CD+DVD Version. They both look stunning :luv2 I'm excitet for a preview
|
How did namie manage to take one of the worst pictures of her career and put it on the cd only cover. The photographer had no other pictures? ! If c didn't look so amazing I would have said "who hired him?"
|
The only thing that bothered me at first with the CD only was Crystal's foot floating. But someone said Namie looks like a hunchback and now I can't unsee it lol. But she looks fine on the CD+DVD.
|
On the CD only, I thought Namie's left leg was missing until I saw that some fabric from Crystal's outfit was covering it. I do like the overall styling for both of them and they both look amazing. Namie's poses are so awkward though!
|
I really really really love the tour photos.
As for the Crystal collab covers...smh. I have no words for the CD cover with Namie's pose and I guess I'm used to outfits like that by now even though it doesn't fit the cover. But even Crystal. I don't like that hair on her. Like, she can be so much prettier. Anyway, it's whatever. I think this is pretty good for Crystal so I'm pretty happy about it. Hope it charts well. |
I don't like the CD only cover, Crystal Kay's blue dress with the blue background covering Namie's leg making it look like her leg is gone + Crystal's floating foot + Namie's awkward pose... This cover is just weird imo.
CD+DVD covers looks nice though :) |
What is she doing with her shoulder in CD only cover???
|
tbh both covers look poorly made to me, from the colour of the background to the overexposed foreheads :( I hope their outfits look better in the PV
|
Namie looks pretty awkward and the outfit doesn't help her in any way. Crystal Kay looks waay better. Hope the song is good though.
|
So is Namie's tattoo gone now?
|
I think both CK & NA look great on both covers. I can't wait for the new single to release. :D :blove
Btw, are there any overly large HD photos of the single covers out yet? |
CK's head look big compare to Namie's
|
From Corvina from last night in the CK thread:

|
I really like the song so far!!
|
Radio rip: https://www.facebook.com/Namienewsne...7847795254388/
The verses and pre-chorus are great but the chorus is pretty meh. It's alright overall. |
the song is ok...the chorus is catchy...
but definitely Crystal own the song, Crystal has a very strong influence on the song...the interlude part is sooooo Crystal... very different when Namie collaborate with Ken, both Ken and Namie sounds strong but in this song...Crystal win in every aspect... |
I liked the song, it has a good feeling! But yeah, it's totaly a Crystal song!
|
I hardly heard namie lol but I thought the song was ok. Definitely not going in the direction of Vivid. It sounds like something namie would record I think.
|
Namie and crystal Kay complemented each other beautifully. I loved it, hahaha namie disappeared a bit at the chorus but I could still hear her. Very good song.
|
The song sounds great, and they sound great together! I like the CD + DVD cover, but that CD only is so awkward for some many reasons.
Its just so awkward it makes me think they took those images separately and then in post production the photographer or graphic team just composited them together. Aside from CK's floating foot, looking at Namie's foot and CK's other foot, they don't look like they're solidly on the ground either.. but I could be wrong. I suppose since it is more CK feat Namie... they would make CK look better? Not that she looks much better in the shot, its just bleh. They got it right on the CD + DVD thought. Looking forward to hearing the full length version. :) |
I am completely in love with "REVOLUTION". :luv2 Namie's & Crystal's voices blend so well together, in the song! Especially during the verses. :heart I totally can't wait to watch the PV, now! :D
|
I love it!!!
Namie is singing japanese LOL I guess, its a feat. afterall...Crystal HAS to be the main I can imagine Namie singing this in her own shows though..its gonna be INSANE. that atmosphere omg |
I luuuuuuuuuuuuuved the song. I do have one negative, though. I feel like there's energy missing, especially in the chorus. Their voices fit very well together and I love the beats and I love the meaning, but whenever I hear songs like this about starting revolutions and such and it's sung with such a sweet, soft voice I kinda lose some of the pump. Like. You're starting a revolution! Be energetic! Be pumped! If you're going to lead us into a revolution, I want you to be the most courageous, most determined MF out there. I want to feel your energy in my bones! But I don't with this. I don't know. I'm probably being picky. I honestly do like the song, it just feels like its two people, two friends, singing a song about a revolution in their car, rather than actually singing the song, like for a recording.
I'm sure in a concert this would be so much better, but as for just playing it as I leisure around the house, it'd probably just be background music. |
This is a collaboration that I would have never expected, but am really excited for it, for that reason.
|
the song is great! especially the chorus. waiting for better quality.
|
great cant wait to hear the hq quality one:yes
|
This is random, but I decided to listen to "I'm Not Yours" randomly; and WOW! Where has this song been all my life!? The definition of perfection omg.

I think the song is okay but nothing more
|
I was going through the Namie tracks I put on my iPhone and I realize they're all ballads except for WANT ME, WANT ME lol I never realized how much I love her ballads.
|
Somebody have a direct download link please? >_<
|
Gotta hear it in HQ to really judge...so far, meh...
|
Oh, I like the preview! I like this style much more than the types of sogs she's been releasing lately...
|
Do we know if there are any bsides or anything?
|
I am looking forward Checkmate 2

yay for instrumental...the song itself without vocal already so good..I need the instrumental...
|
I wonder if Namie will perform it during the new tour like she did with grotesque
|
I hope she does. That song live would be way too sick. It'd fit really well right before or right after Higher. (Lord, I was so surprised to see she performed Grotesque! haha I hope she does it again.)
|
Really surprised that there is a remix of such an old song of hers...
|
I think she will perform it :)
|
I think Namie will perform Revolution on tour, like grotesque
|
^ Then she better preform I'm not yours too.:)
|
Does anyone know how or where it's possible to buy the genic tour goods if you're outside Asia?
|
She will be on the cover of Nylon Japan with Hatsune Miku lmao, I think it will be just a drawing of her though. Also she is on the cover of Marie Claire Hong Kong, and I think she will anounce in that magazine an asian tour.
|
^ I'd hope for her to come to Singapore if that's the case but judging from the drama previously...
|
^ did they ever figure out who was really to blame for that whole fiasco? I still can't get over how poorly that whole thing was handled. :no
|
What drama?

here is the preview:

I loved it. Holy shit. I need this in my life. I never knew I needed it and now that it's here I need it. I mean, from that gif up there you can see that I am now dead but if I had this entire song I'm pretty sure I'd resurrect. |
When I woke up I'm pretty sure I never expected to experience anything like this.
I AM DEAD. CRYSTAL KAY WHO TBH |
Are we dead together? I'm pretty sure we just died together. This is the best news I've ever heard in a 30 minute time-span. *Goes back to youtube to die again*
|
^ YEAH WE DEF DID
I JUST LOVE THAT THESE LADIES ARE IN THEIR FIFTIES AND THEY'RE STILL ROCKING OUT GO NAMIE GO maybe checkmate the sequel is coming sooner than we thought |
THEYR'E IN THEIRF;KJAD;FFREAKINGFIFTIES?! (F***. I should have caught onto that when it said 30th anniversary. Hell. What was I thinking? That they debuted when they were six? This announcement is melting my brain. I can't think straight.)
Seriously, though. This song. Ohmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmygawwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwd. I've been slain. Namie, the Queenslayer, sits the Iron Throne. The wars are over. Koda Kumi and her fantastic body drops her mic and is forced to fall to her knees. Ayumi Hamasaki stares in the corner, wide-eyed, her voice never found again. Utada Hikaru walks in exile with a babe that no one knows what he looks like. Maybe he is a goat. Or a Kuma. Who knows. All that is known is peace is found as Namie Amuro is surrounded by her past-fifty-year-old Queensguard, fitted with electric guitars and badassery. In the silence that follows, the guards draw their guitars and the night comes alive with the sounds of Holy-Shit-That's-Awesomeness. |
This is so random but it sounds amazing LOL I love it
Checkmate pt. II is coming next year guys |

限界LOVERS has actually been released in the 80s! SHOW-YA's new album progress also contains a 2015 version of this song. progress tracklist: http://show-ya.jp/post-0003739/ |

Can't wait for Checkmate part 2. |
I love what I'm hearing so far!
Her collabs are always so great |
She slayed all of us once again X_X
|
I thought y'all were exaggerating...
Nope. She slayed. #dead |
I'm so indifferent about it. On one hand I like the guitar but on the other hand the song doesn't do anything for me. Namie blends in so much with the other singers she may as well not be featured.
|
^the song is twice on this album. Namies feature is a Bonus track -
a) for the hype (she is undoubtful the hottest thing atm) b) friendship? c) maybe she asked beacuse she seems to idolize the band (at least, she song the song on MS a few years ago) |
Loved the new preview.
I am so ready for a Checkmate II. *crosses fingers* |
Wow! Namie's sounding so awesome on that "GENKAI LOVERS" song. :luv2 Totally not a sound we would usually hear from her, but she literally rocked it! :D
Speaking of rocking, here's Namie on the cover of Marie Claire Hong Kong Sept. 2015 (photo shot by Mika Ninagawa) http://i.imgur.com/SH2pMyb.png perfection, as always. :heart :heart :heart |
Quote:
like good old times, God! omg:luv2 |
If you told me a couple years ago Namie would collab with Crystal Kay and then do a heavy metal song with an all-female group, I would have just laughed.

Had her tattoo still been there I would have said that was an exact pic from, like, 2005. xD I mean, I can still it there very, very faintly, but definitely not the same. I miss her tattoos.
|
wow, I love the maie claire picture :luv2
The tour goods are sooo nice this year! I don't think I can resist getting some of those. The figures are adorable! Quote:
Talent wise SHOW-YA seems to be really good though, I really like the vocals. I may as well listen to other songs from them to see if I like something. |
I thought that picture was from early 2000's holy shit.
And her voice fits so perfect with showya. |
That collaboration is so unexpected, she can do everything.

|
Ok I'm DEFINITELY here for Heavy Metal Namie. Holy shit she slayed! Her voice works really well with SHOW-YA.
|
