The official No Doubt/Gwen Stefani thread
 

Oh haha, I think L.A.M.B. was a superb album! I didn't like it though on first listen, though it sounded to technotronic. But after giving a few more tries, yup, it's superb!

I first heard about her in No Doubt way back then and I'm glad her solo career is soaring to new heights. I'm definitely a fan of her music, she's got me hooked with L.A.M.B. it's like an opus of her music composition!

There's like 2 or 3 threads devoted to Gwen here though..

I'm a big fan, memorized every track off L.A.M.B. already. :D I really love Luxurious, Bubble Pop Electric and Danger Zone.

I don't really listen to her and I haven't listened to her whole album, but the impression I get after the singles is really positive. I was impressed by the videos "What are you waiting for?" and "Rich girl", as well as I liked the r'n'b and rap mixture she did for her songs.

One thing I found a bit disturbing was how she incorporated the whole Japanese "things"; the Harajuku girls, her Japanese 'su-pa-kawa-II' 'Harasshhuku' 'Tokiiou', and also, her recent single 'Luxurious'.

"Working hard every night and day and now we get the payback." To me it sounded like 'Yeah, look how hard we work being stars and celebrities, it's sooo hard for us. It's US who works their butt off so WE deserve it all.' But there's so many people out there who work their butts off and get barely any reward for it, don't say like it's only showbusiness people that work hard...

That's my favourite track.. :yes To me, it sounded normal, like a love song where she's talking to her boyfriend or something..

The one annoying thing would be the fact she kept on advertising her clothing line in the tracks. She mentioned L.A.M.B. in Rich Girl, Crash, Harajuku Girls..

On the first pic the cuteness is mixed with gothicness too much, IMO.
But yeah, her "Harajuku" Girls aren't really much Harajuku... with all that makeup they don't even look much Asian...

Luckily people didn't really pick up her Japan/Harajuku obsession...

The girls in the second piccy are soooo adorable.

Gwen's next album is gonna be at the end of this year, right? She recorded with Pharell and stuff. Plus I heard that Wind It Up would be the next single, but somehow it got retracted.

I loved L.A.M.B., but I let my stepbrother borrow it, and the cd case was cracked, cd ruined, and booklet torn(which was my favorite of all), and he's 23! I'm so mad, but I love Gwen her voice is so amazing, I love her music too, Cool was like a sort of rearranged mis of Running(I think that's what it's called I know I had the cd Rock Steady from No Doubt, but that got messed up too for the same reasons. Oh well.

I hadn't heard that there was going to be a new No Doubt album. It's nice that she's still going to work with them even though her solo album was a big hit.

Gwen's been looking pretty lovely in pics taken after her son's birth.

^ Awww, cutee....

Scrapped? :weep I was anticpating it..

My favourites of the Gwen pics I've seen recently:

The first is from a charity event for disabled children that she, Gavin and Kingston attended. The second is Gwen visiting Eve at a recording studio, July 13th.

It's almost disappointingly predictable. :) When the pregnancy was announced, a lot of people said that Gwen would be one of the most stylish celeb moms and, well, yes.

The thing she wears on the second pic looks kimono-ish o.o

Yay, a Gwen thread!

Hope she loses the weight though x.x

I absolutely love Gwen and her Harajuku girls! I wanna be able to dress like that and get away with it!

Has anyone heard her song that leaked? Or for that matter all on the songs on the Asian Special release?

I think the song that leaked is called All Nighter. It's Reggae.

Then there are like 5 - 7 only released as re-releases of LAMB or performed at the concert.

^ yeah I heard that "all nighter" song, but I didn't really like it
