[Namie Amuro] The 77th Official Thread「FEEL」

[terra]

The album has been blowing my mind until now, I can't get enough of it...with the exception of Can You Feel This Love maybe lol in the end I didn't care about her Engrish, in fact for me it's like a game of trying to grasp what she's said

I hope we get to hear Neonlight Lipstick in full, the title is cool. I'm hoping to hear Contrail (Ballad ver.) properly, maybe in the drama soundtrack. And I can't shake the feeling that Stardust In My Eyes could be a great orchestral track if they cut the whole electronic thing and just stick with acoustic orchestra, I really love the strings in that song.

[BlackSilence]

^ i think the strings is a reason why i love it so much, also it reminds me a lot of this. Actually when i heard it first i thought it would make a great track for Namie lol

[toniayu]

I recall seeing a "beautiful" PV preview in a mu-mo CM promoting the single...I really can't understand why that song isn't on the album

[George]

I'm really glad most of you seem to enjoy the album. I honestly wish I was one of you! I swear I heard Alive before. I just can't quite put my finger on exactly what song. All I'm hearing is: To make me pee pee pee.

I like the album but I don't think I would be listening to it after a day or two.

Supernatural Love is SO Kylie Minogue meets Kpop, I love it! I hope she rock the song during the tour (can Î have a mashup between Supernatural Love with Kuu's Dou ni mo Tomaranai? lol).

Poison is the kind of song that I think defines Namie.

The album is really solid, each song has her own feel even tho most of the songs are electronic pop.

Lalala kinda reminds me of Beyonce that meets the disco remix! It's so very nice! And Beautiful would have fit perfectly for me, to help the poor LMLYG too, which is the only slow ballad and it's such a contrast for the rest of the album. Maybe with another song like Beautiful before the abrupt stop in the style wouldn't have been so strindent.
Sometimes in this album I feel like Namie voice is different, not just stronger, but really another thing. Like it's evolving or something. Or maybe it's that she really sounds like she's having a lot of fun singing some tracks!

Now that you mention it, i totally hear Kylie in Supernatural Love! Must be why i love it so much

[terra]

^Same here, when you mentioned Kylie Minogue I also can hear her in Supernatural Love xD and yeah KPop too. I even thought the album's musical direction reminds me of SNSD in Japan.

The chorus in Poison really reminds me of something else (probably an American song), but I can't remember what. Anyone else? It's driving me crazy.

[Rocky Raven]

"Alive" to be released internationally!!

I don't know if I should be excited or scared by that tbh.

Imma laugh if it does. So hard.

Is it really true though? It seems a bit fake to me. No official sources.

Seems fake to me too. It says it's confirmed but by who lol? And she's starting her tour in august, why the hell would she release her song international then?

It'll flop harder than Nelly Furtado's latest album, but who cares the song is fire and will slay lives.
I doubt it's like a full-blown single release anyway, but mostly just to give her some more exposure outside Asia.

[Surreal17]

I don't like the second and last cover from Blenda.She seems scared and sad.
On other note,I started to apreciate BBC more than before listening to the whole album.

[kumis]

I'm actually so happy she's releasing Alive internationally. From the beginning of this era I've been saying how she has so much potential to be huge in the US with this album. I think Heaven would've been a better single choice even though I love Alive just as much as Heaven but I'll be so happy if this means I'll be hearing Namie on the radio

[ILoveGeniuses]

Not to put anyone down on the whole US thing with Namie, but while I agree that some of the songs have this potential, first problem is her English pronunciation. I can understand her pretty well myself, but most people in North America probably can't. We already saw how much the American media was making fun of her for the bit she did in TLC's Waterfalls. They'd never accept her singing in English if she can't pronounce it properly. I think the only reason people here let it go with celebs like Jackie Chan is you can understand him and people are more so going to see him do martial arts and visual jokes, not listen to him sing.
