I'm just kind of disappointed overall now that I've had a few days to listen to the whole thing.
To me it just doesn't feel like the album has any flow. Maybe it's because 75% of it was already out before and had to be put on there somehow (except it didn't), but I just hear one song and think, "Oh right, that's where they put this one", and not "Whoa, what a perfect transition from the track before", like on some albums. Not only that though, but the English versions of GR and YO are messes compared to the originals, Hot Girls is still crap and In The Spotlight (Tokyo) sounds so typical to me I just want to shut it off, even though I do still kind of like it. I don't want Namie to become the American artist she seems to have become with this album. I hate American music right now, and for my favorite singer to try and go for that style...it's not good.
