Okay. So Wikipedia totally made me confused.

Say the Word IS a cover, but Namie wrote lyrics to it.
She also wrote the lyrics to I Will.

Yes, I know. But that doesn't mean that there will be covers on her new album. As far as I know, PLAY didn't have any cover.

I wouldn't mind if she covers a song like she did with Come and 60s70s80s. The new arangements & lyrics were so different and better.

^ Yeah, but I'd really like for FAST CAR to be a cover of Tracey Chapman. Haha. PLAY didn't have any covers at all though~. ^^
It's probably just wishful thinking. ^^

You know for sure?!?!?! Like 1% sure!?!

60s70s80s ARE NOT COVERS! Get the definition of 'Cover' songs first before you put them in your "I'm sure" list...

GIRL TALK is also NOT a cover. It was composed by T.KURA and lyrics by Michico.

Haha you said that a little harshly.

I also consider 60s70s80s covers as they sample already existing songs.
But you're right, GIRL TALK isn't a cover.

^ sampling is NOT covering, or are you saying Ayus Free & Easy is a cover because the first twenty seconds or whatever are sampled? When sampling, the majority of the song still is new -> NO cover

@UHplus & noidea oh my, calm down. cover = sample, they maybe changed the arrangements and lyrics, but the point is that they are not the original songs. That's said on wikipedia too.

GIRL TALK, isn't sampled (covered) by "Girls just wanna have fun"? tralalala XD

Even if it's only sampled, that will always be a cover for me.


EDIT: A friend of mine, who never heard of Namie Amuro, when he first heard GIRL TALK, he immediatelly said "Girls just wanna have fun, huh"? Even I thought of Cyndi Lauper ...

Ah but from my ears, the melodies aren't THAT different. So I'd personally say it's a cover. :\

maybe for you, but wikipedia and you are wrong, sampling and changing the arrangement and lyrics is different BTW, if they build something completely new around a SHORT sampled piece, like in WHAT A FEELING for example, that's not covering, if most of it is original, it IS an original song, that builds up around a sample

The right definition of cover is a song that is less original than sampled and/or rerecorded, so if one line and a little instrumental part for example is sampled, the song is not a cover

^ of course, maybe for me but when I'm listening a song, and I already know it's from someone else (I heard it and I recognize it) I see that as a cover. Because Namie's producents used the sample, they got an idea from someone else, and just made it better. The same goes for Ayu x Sweetbox.

That doesn't mean that is bothering me or I don't like new versions.

No it's not the same. Ayu covered Sweetbox songs meaning all the melodies of the original song are used, only lyrics and arrangements are different.

^ Well, there's no point in being antagonistic towards each other.

It's obvious that me and Maemi have opposing views to you and noidea, so it's better if we leave the argument without it escalating, right?

Haha, I mean at the end of the day, what does it matter if we accept them as covers and you don't?
