The PV was a...unique viewing experience. Umm I think it might grow on me later.

I thought I should make the new thread and incorporate both new songs, anywhoozer, I do find the pv more interesting, I liked it at first, but i didn't love it, but I see it a one of her pv's I could watch over and over again.

Another thing:

Is the whole "Headliner" part gonna be in the entire pv? or did someone add that on the pv...cause it's super annoying!

^For me personally I prefer Do Me More's song and PV as well...I really love Nao'ymt's music so much!, but I love Sexy Girl as well!

Another Thing:
If anyone downloaded the tv aired version of wishing on the same star and the end it had Amuro kissing herself but a very bright glare over her face when they did so, do you think they'll put that version on the dvd for BF?

I like Do Me More better than Sexy Girl. :yes
Isn't the HEADLINER thing just part of channel it aired on?

Like sometimes on MTV (Japan) they put, when airing a new PV, this line that says "Exclusive video". Though that only appears for 3 seconds or so.

^That's what I started wondering, cause doesn't Headliner mean it's the start for a new hour of music videos?

and as crappy as the choreography was for the pv Namie still made it look hot, so I don't mind it anymore.

I think the PV was interesting and different, so in my opinion you can't really hate it, it's just something a little different than what we are all used to. I'm sure all of you guys who are sitting here saying that you don't like it because of this or that, it'll eventually grow on you, especially for those who loved the song, but not the PV.

But of course there will be some who will never like it for whatever reason and that's fine! =D


EDIT: Also, about that kid in the PV, is he a girl or boy? I know this was discussed earlier, but I cannot be bothered going back to read all that. xD

I think so it looks like it Kris

only thing's I never seen that happened before from SSTV

:yes

that's true , music & video are both subjective

both are good in their own right but I like Do Me More slightly over Sexy Girl although I appericate how interesting the melody of Sexy Girl's

Well, I just watched the video and it certainly is different o___o
Really strange.
The whole unicorn stripper thing? Yeah strrraaaannnge.
Entertaining though.

=)

can i post my comments again? ahha

I totally see the whole "FICTION" theme appearing...but I was expecting more hot stuff..lol...

I REALLY WANTED A SLICK DANCE MOVE AT THE FAST BRIDGE!! BUT NOTHING!..

GOOD:
-great to have a theme (FICTION, Black and White)
-NAMIE HAS THAT ALARM LOOK AGAIN!!!
(but why does her right side of her hair look so bald O.O)

BAD:
-choreography...[o plz thats childplay for her]
-too much focus on the white namie
-the storyline wasnt exactly clear

^You love the ALARM look too?, I was like ahh! when I saw it, she looked so sexy!!!

Isn't this look like, originally from the PLEASE SMILE AGAIN PV?

Okay let's start with the bad:
Namie should have just ditched the ugly kid and fairy tale theme. Just because it worked for misono doesn't mean it'll work for her.

In the middle:
I personally liked the choreography, although I'm sure, like others, she could have done a lot more. But, we all know she'll wow us when tour time comes, I always have loved her choreography on tour. =]

The good:
When she was in that black outfit, she looked SMOKING HOT. Seriously, I was almost salivating. (Minus almost) Also, the moves we did see were nice, and I'm sure she'll add some more while on tour. The outfit of her in white was pretty, and although it didn't match up with the song's "SEXY" sound, I still loved it.

All together, I loved the PV, and maybe it's a good thing she didn't make it too sexy, after all she already has a song called Sexy Girl. I give it a 4/5 <3

Hi, I know this is a little off, but I just knew that Namie used to have a kid? (Sorry, I kinda left behind about her). Is it ever true? and this son of her had died? Of what?
Thx

^her son is still very much alive and 10 yrs. old, his name is Haruto and is tatooed on her left shoulder along with a tatto dedicated to her dead mother.

yup like what Celaphorce said

erm what makes you think Haruto died ??

the tattoo^^, OK thx for the follow up

oh LOL

does anyone have any pics of Haruto ?

I don't think I have seen how he looks like though

What's wrong with the "unicorn strippers"
There's ponygirls out there, they're just unicorngirls

Yeah, I'd also like to see the kid! I'm sure he's quite a looker. xD! :lech

I found a video on YouTube from the pressconference in which Namie and SAM officially announce that they are engaged and that Namie is pregnant:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=o-N6K...eature=related

EDIT: Here is a Namie special from 1998. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1rcs9...eature=related
EDIT II: When you see Namie practising the dance moves of I HAVE NEVER SEEN they also show Chiharu. :laugh Sorry, I just noticed.

Thanks for sharing that video!
Aww, she was so cute back in those days! haha. =D

I know a few threads back myabe 3 or 2 there ws a pic that a photographer snapped of Namie and Haruto shopping and she's suing(spelling)...LOL...them because she doesn't want her son to be out in the media.

i think the PV is not bad at all!! the arisu no wandarando concept is good! i like it! but the only dissapoinment is the hairstyle in the dance part aka the alrm PV hairstyle is like chicken to me

i thought the PV was pretty funny, lol. the dancing could have been better, but i enjoyed watching it anyway.

Well, at least it's not boring like her most of her PVs :shrug

*shocked* Boring!? Since when were Namie's PVs boring!?
I admit there are some which aren't good, but then there are a lot of them which I think are awesome!

I really liked the PV. Yeah, the story wasn't all that clear and the choreography in Sexy Girl was by far better than the one in this. But besides that, there really wasn't anything bad about it. It definitely kept my attention throughout the whole thing. I was surprised there it wasn't a showgirl theme but I liked this one too. It suited the song.

Now I just can't wait for her to perform these!

If I say boring doesn't mean I don't enjoy them.
I dunno what makes them boring, I guess that she dances in all of them (exept for ballad PVs).
Some people find her PVs boring. I mean, that's okay right? :shrug

But when I watch her PVs I always love the choreography.

Yes, you are right there about the choreography. I think that as of late her PVs have become less dance intense as opposed to previous years. Like if you go back a few years and watch her older PVs from STYLE etc. Those are very much dance orientated which is what I like about Namie's PVs. However, as of late, I don't feel that intensity any more. Am I making sense here, or do I just sound stupid!?

I like this video too... she looks beautiful in the FUNKY TOWN-esque outfit with the hat to the side... I could do without the chicken hair though and the boring choreography haha.

ROCK STEADY and WHAT A FEELING have much better dance routines than Do Me More and Sexy Girl.

the only dissapointment is the ALARM hair-style which i really dont like

and not to mention, i dont really like namie in pants

Well, I took a breather from the 25th thread, so now I'm back.

Anyway, I've been watching Sexy Girl nonstop from the day it first was uploaded and I love that song.. sure, it can't touch 60s 70s 80s, but what can? The video is nice too.. better than BLACK DIAMOND at least.. When Namie does that thing during "sexy sexy lips", it's like she's pointing to a moustache. ;O Anyway, the choreography is cool and OMG, that girl with the red knee-length tights who's also in the bathroom stall at the beginning is hot. She's got the cold b**** look down better than Namie herself. :O

And, having seen Do Me More once, it's cool, too. You can see that it got a bigger budget than Sexy Girl and it has been used well. I love the fact that Namie has such different outfits and hairstyles in different scenes of the two videos. Variety is nice. Since I've seen Do Me More once, I can't really say much about it.. well, that small girl is kinda ugly [wait, boy?!?! :O], but it's not her fault.

To sum it up, I'm looking forward to BEST FICTION.

I know that YUKI had a son that died of SIDS.. maybe you mixed them up?

I dont know why people say that Do Me More PV sucks ! haha i like it a LOT, is better than sexy girl! :P i love it

I agree, DMM is defentely better than Sexy Girl :yes

I just watched the "Do Me More" PV and I'm still trying to figure out why they added the parts with the little girl. LOL. It didn't made much sense and their was no connection with the Namie scenes and the little girl scenes. Oh well. Namie looked great on the PV! Except that the hairstyles are really "recycled". I thought the dance was pretty lame. I didn't like the dance in "Sexy Girl" but I think that this choreography was worst. At least both songs are hot.

I believe it was to connect with the "FICTION" theme. It seemed a little forced imo.

I liked the PV and all, but the dancing could have been better, IMO. I liked the Sexy Girl PV better though.

Yup!! haha...i like something fresh other than long hair all the time..

I think that was a horrible idea to put the little girl in there...
I mean I'm sorry but does Namie know what the hell she's singing? Don't get me wrong Namie looked very nice and everything but for such a sexual sounding song I don't like the idea of a little girl being in the video. That was just dumb... I mean this is a sexual song right? Am I missing something? I'd really like to to read an english translation of this song because from the english parts I here this song sound dirty.

Ohh, that could be it. But still, even though it makes sense with the album title, it certainly doesn't make sense with the song or the rest of the video. XD

Wow, I didn't thought of that at all!

I guess it wasn't really a good idea to have these 2 older women making the little girl follow them too then.

The PV looked really nice, and it did look like they had a higher budget or whatever but it could have been a hell of a lot better story wise that's for sure. I don't like the idea of a little girl being in a video with a song a like this, not at all.

I'm very disappointed with the video to be honest. The choreography was so bad! But - she looked great in her "ALARM" look and the song is still amazing! Dancing unicorns will be giving me nightmares though XD

Dorothy Alice White is not a little girl. How can you seriously look at him and think he's a girl? He totally looks like a guy in girl's clothes. NAMIE HAS A SHOTACON AND HORSE FETISH DAMNDkHZLFSH

Oh well doesn't matter if it's a boy or girl it still looks like it's sending out a bad message in my opinion...

Yeah, I kinda agree, it looks like a man.

Seriously, this video screams statutory and bestiality. Namie, seriously, if you REALLY are like this, then don't tell us please x_x

The PV blows but now I really like the song! Yay :laugh

Doesn't matter, it's a fugly kid...maybe she figured if she put an ugly person in her vid it would make her look 10x as good xDD

aaawwww....the pv didnt turn out that great D: oh well :)

Not sure if anyone posted this already...

But Oricon did their half-years, where they rank the highest selling singles, albums, and DVDs for the year so far...and here is where Namie ranked in!

w00t! Keep representing, gotta give those boybands something to compete with!

Ha...the horse people scared me :P

BEST FICTION will easily get a top 20 spot...maybe even top 10 :luv2

^It's still a little boy.

Oh my god.

Incest, little boys... OH MY GOD... Cloudy do you realize what you suggest? Her poor son...

That kid has the same freaky bug eyes like Ryan Sheckler's youngest brother. If you're gonna have big eyes, work it out right. >:-[

im pretty sure that the kid is a girl... i mean, when ur that age, the girls and guys look kind of young and feminine, but im pretty sure that the kid is a girl... id hope it wasnt a boy... the poor thing in all that makeup... hed be the laughing stock of his school T___T

Can't wait for the translation Richie!, and I love the Do Me More pv now...I just wonder which song she'll be performing to promote.

yay, ozzm translation~

I kind of think the song's about another girl, though, with the red butterfly lips part. =o

thanks for the translation of the Do Me More lyrics , xilirationisfun

now at least I understand why the concept of the PV's like that

who wrote the lyrics to the song btw ?

some guy said it was come over here and do me more and i thought dude, its engrish but it sounds nothing like come over here and do me more XD

haha :laugh

ah ok thanks for that

I wonder what kinda horny stuff he was thinking when he wrote Do Me More :innocent

I assumed that he also wrote Sexy Girl too ?

Higher than 20 spot since the 20th spot of now is "only" 267.000 copies sold...Namie will reach at least 7th and 8th spot (Guilty and Kingdom's ones)

hey, i think for the r&me part, shes saying something quite a bit different... ive always thought she was saying "all of me" in her odd little engrish way... at least thats the way i interpreted it... XD

Yeah I had went back over it and kept listening and it really does sound like All of me. and the All of me does kind of make since for this song also. XD

:laugh Do I want to know?

Thanks for the translation.
And ... she puts a kid in the PV with these lyrics? Sorry but some parts are kind of sexual IMO.


EDIT: THE R&ME PART IS FINALLY SOLVED! SHE REALLY SAYS R&ME!
Go to NNN, UH+ posted a clip there that features a small part of the Making of DMM. Is has subs and she really says R&Me

maybe his hormone was raging fast at that time

and thx for the translation xilirationisfun! his lyrics is so much fun!

I liked the PV because i think this is somewhat different from her other PVs.

She brings new elements to the pv as well as some old element (ALARM PV type of dressing and look)

i love Do Me More PV!!! :D It's so weird, and so different! :) Sexy Girl is boring, but this one is good! and thanks for the translation, i was really curious ._.

agree, i got really confused when i saw that kid o.O"

I don't like sexy girl, song and PV, but I like Do Me More ! it reminds me Hide & seek that I love so automatically, I just can like it x)

And about the CD covers, It's too sophisticated for me :/

the weird unicorn strippers... 0____o come on namie!

Why is there a major sexual innuendo in the title of this thread? :mischief

^ beats me :shrug

I used to have a problem telling apart between DO ME MORE & SEXY GIRL but I guess after I have seen the PVs for both songs , I have no issues with it now

honestly speaking, i have no complains for both the new pvs. I can say at least i enjoyed Sexy Girl/Do Me More's more than Hide & Seek/Hello's...

I dunno but i think i have a rather different taste to namie's music nowadays than other ppl ... I dislike those songs that other are crazy and i like the songs that most ppl dislike.. :P

well for my case I listened to PLAY onwards since the 1st proper song I heard of her was Hide & Seek

so for her previous singles wise , I'm quite clueless over the PVs & songs

I know it's quite bad -_-

I like differences & it's nice to see that Namie's taking chances with her music now as compared to before regardless of the risk that she has undertake

eh? What's bad?

^ erm bad as in I only know her singles/songs from PLAY onwards

I really should start listening backwards of her discography now though

It's okay, you're not alone. =P I need to get listening to the rest of her older stuff.

Then all of you guys should get BEST FICTION !!!! Lol!! Namie music is the best during 2003-2004 imo e.g shine more, Put 'Em Up, SO CRAZY, ALARM.

Put 'Em Up is the song/PV that turns me from a casual listener to a no.1 hardcore fan of namie!!! Honestly speaking, her stuffs after Queen of Hip-Pop don't wow me anymore but i learn to enjoy her music anyway :P

i can't listen her music before Style... :/

I actually liked her old style as well as her current R&B style. Some of my favourite songs from that era would be: Body Feels EXIT, CAN YOU CELEBRATE?, PLEASE SMILE AGAIN, Chase the Chance, a walk in the park and even Say the Word. =D

I really should start listening to her past material

just not now though , I'm still in the midst of listening to Anna Tsuchiya & a huge bulk of ARASHI's past discography :laugh

Yes, you should listen to her older stuff. Try the songs I mentioned above! =]

yeah I definitely should especially CAN YOU CELEBRATE ?

You're missing Namie's best era. "Sexy Girl" and "Do Me More" are absolute crap compared to Style and Queen of Hip-Hop.

Do Me More is WORSE compared to 'Style" n "QOHP"!?!---> U r must be a STYLELESS-Fan!
Style is URBAN while QOHP is mix Poppin' dance Pop but DO ME MORE is more than that!
She have her CUITE SIde n SMOKIN' side together!
Everything about the PV is much more better than what I hope for, new imgaes, more background, more stand sinnin' not just dancin', Alarm hair and ESPECIALLY the Dancin'
Ppl dont like this Pv much because of the DANCIN'! But I LOVE it the Most!

Do Me More's crap ? are you serious ? I like the melody going on in the song & so's Sexy Girl

I think I'm easily satisfied with things or either that I have lousy taste when comes to music

I can't even read what you wrote. It just hurts my brain trying to comprehend your bizarre messages. Anyway, YES, DMM and Sexy Girl are crap when you compare them to how great STYLE and QoHP were. They are a major quality drop-off, especially after 60s70s80s.

Reading comprehension, Karen. I said they're crap when you compare them to STYLE and QoHP. On their own, they're okay. Mediocre.

sorry Triple D & yeah I know I misread on what you said just now

it's already midnight on where I'm living at the moment

I need the bed now :laugh

"I need the bed"? Karen-chan you do know that sounds very Kumi-ish.

I think STYLE was her best era. Honesty I don't really like her music before STYLE.

erm are you sure about that ?

I don't know but yeah it's already Fri morning , 12.06am in S'pore

I should go to sleep after I made this post

ah I see

well I did tried her Queen Of Hip Pop album quite a long time back . At that time I was still quite a JPop greenhorn & I wasn't really feeling quite a lot of the songs on there

maybe I should give that a shot again alongside with STYLE
