Nice 1st post!
I wonder if they are going to do YEAH-OH covers...just like Break it/GMB

CHE.R.RY 14th March 2012 04:49 PM

Wow YEAH-OH has gotta be the best song I've heard from Namie since...like WILD :thud

& She looked sooo beautiful in the PV :o.

Rocky Raven 14th March 2012 04:53 PM

As for me, to be deeply honest, the song is so so so so good becuz it got nothing cute & no drama into it, it's just simply Namie-ish.
It's exactly the kind of song that made me a Namie's fan back then in 2003(like So Crazy/ALARM), and also exactly the song that when someone asks me what kind of artist Namie Amuro is, i would show 'em without any hesitation.
QUEEN~

She looks -hot- in YEAH-OH.

^ My thoughts exactly. ;)

I don't like "Yeah-Oh" as much as "WILD" but it's definitely her best song (along with "Higher") since PAST<FUTURE's release imo. :yes

CoriKaru 14th March 2012 05:21 PM

Daaay-OH......Daaaaayy-OH. Daylight come and I wanna go home.

No_Doubt 14th March 2012 05:23 PM

I quite like the new single. Go Round is wonderful, it has a very strong chorus in my opinion. I've listened to YEAH-OH once, and while I definitely enjoyed, for some reason I have no desire to ever listen to it again.

RayJason 14th March 2012 05:24 PM

I'm looking forward to Go Round. I love that track. The PV concept seems to be overused a lot though. But I don't care it's still awesome! :D

*Petit* 14th March 2012 05:24 PM

I'm really hyped for this release. Both songs sound so promising. She's got a pretty impressive collection of tracks already for an upcoming album. Honestly at this point I wouldn't mind another compilation, Id hate to see the next album without songs like fight together, get myself back again and sit wait etc.

Maemi 14th March 2012 05:57 PM

That's exactly what I said when I first heard the "YEAH-OH" parts, lol!

visionfactory 14th March 2012 06:31 PM

I agree YEAH-OH is the best thing she has released since PAST<FUTURE!! :yes

Mirai Noah 14th March 2012 06:33 PM

"Yeah-Oh" sounds pretty good! :D
