[Delicious n Bold]

Time for a lengthy review. Well kinda.
If I like the song, then there's not much to say...

Spoiler:

Alive:
I absolutely love it. It's so unoriginal yet it somehow sounds so fresh.
10/10

Rainbow:
My first album track. I rearrrrry loved the retro gaming sounds. It was a very nice touch.
10/10

Can you feel this love:
This is where things get funky. It's repetitive BAD, not good. It's cute, but oh so annoying. I like how electronic it is, but meh. Sounds like a reject koda kumi cute song. Melting>>> can you feel this love.
5/10

Big boys cry:
A nice baseline and funky instruments seep through this song, but falls flat due to lack of a proper climax or due to boring arrangements.
7.5/10

Hands on me:
Love love love. A summer jam for years to come!
10/10

Heaven:
The song has grown on me, but now it is growing off me. Repetitive, but not good repetitive, like hands on me and alive.
8.5/10

Poison:
It's alright. I like the arrangement, but it does nothing. Overall average.
6/10

La la la:
Not to be confused with kumi koda's annual rock song with two extra la's. Trust me, some sites aren't word sensitive... Anyway, it's ok. Nothing too special, but the arrangement is quite fresh.
7.5/10

Supernatural love:
A swagger filled song with namie's heavily autotuned yet confident vocals. Overall highly repayable.
8.5/10

Let me let you go:
It's not rearry good, but not rearry bad. I'm a sap for piano ballads... When actual artists sing them. I can't connect to ballads unless the singer wrote and or composed it (arranged it too is good). So this ballad is nothing but fodder to make fun of things in real life, like only you was in 2012. I always told people that they can't take the lime. Now it's 'dropped by your house to see who you are'. I still like it though. I'll forget about it when I play Sakura nagashi or even dearest.
8/10

Contrail:
The versus sound as dead as namie usually looks. The chorus is crack. But overall, I absolutely love it. It's reaaaarrrry good.
10/10

Stardurst in my eyes:
Namie hit the money with this. Her producers ripped off many artists and it worked.
10/10

In fact, I can honestly say that namie ripped off many other artists with this album YET did it 200% better. Kudos to her and her team. The whole album sounds like a top 40 album, with bits of kpop in supernatural love (mind, modern kpop is usually a western music rip off anyway, but that's another thread worth of discussion). Despite this, namie's producers still did it better. The album is cohesive and works as a piece somehow.... Its hot, flashy, sexy, cute, suave and bold among others. But I'm not complaining, especially when the music is good.
I don't know if it was namie who decided to sound as good as she does, or if she was told to, but somebody is doing their job properly and it shows.

9/10 overall (not an average)

Unfortunately, I still do not care for namie in the slightest. I like her music, but not her. I think it's because she's not 'involved' as much as I'd like or as much as I know. I remember her saying that she wanted to be more involved in her music. I wonder why she stopped dead after free on QOHP.

So far, best album of 2013. Eastern and western. No artpop or 40/40 experience can knock this album off its pedestal.
