But I have to agree with the Namie brigade/stans on one point. After watching some of her older lives, I've come to the realization that Namie Amuro was actually a pretty damn good dancer between 95'-03. Her older performances actually held my attention unlike her current ones. I don't know what the hell happened since then, maybe age is a factor, but she doesn't give me that satisfaction in regard to stage presence nowadays. Her dancing skills/choreography have become bland.
Her choreographer changed starting from the Can't Sleep, Can't Eat, I'm Sick single. And you could definitely see the difference. I think the last year or so though has been getting better again in the choreography department.
