the song is..not what i expected lOL..still...mixed about it. i expected something stronger in terms of melody and essence. :X from that image.
the MV is quite creative though..haha
i love the scenes with her hair flushed back and its just white-ish

wow...I actually like the song and the video. Nami definitely has come a long way since her debut. She's like a completely different artist now.

Reminds me of Maki Goto's Avex music, and also Ravex. I like it!

How does she go from straight-up R&B to this so fast? Damn.

Sadly, I thought I was going to like the song...but it's so flat and boring :/ But those strings (or synthesizer strings) are UNF!!

Yeah... there's this annoying note that plays for the entire song. There's no chord progression > . < I can't see this charting well... but I still prefer it to Give Me Up & Friends

Nami will be performing on some christmas special. I think it will be broadcasted on TV... I'm not sure.

Here's hoping we get some live promotion of LADY MIND.

^I hope so too!

I really like both the song and video for LADY MIND. I love the choreography and I love the styling (My favorite looks are the one w/ the white background where she has her hair pulled back and the more boyish look, where her hair is shorter and messy)!

The new song is so boring. It doesn't go ANYWHERE. and that background noise is annoying. I miss her old stuff! It was very energetic and fun!

I've been listening to 'LADY MIND' a lot lately and I actually really love it. The song definitely sounds better in higher quality. The PV quality of it on youtube really doesn't do it any justice. There's so many different layers of beats and synths to the song that are just brilliantly put together.

If she gets a few performances on CDTV, Happy Music, Heyx3 or Music Station, this could really be a hit. Imperial Records better not screw her over T_T

ALSO, Nami recently performed on a Christmas Party Live TV show for Music Japan (I think). She performed:

1. New Song
2. Reason
3. Lady Mind
4. Believe
~MC~
5. (Ballad that I forgot the name of)

Already a new song! =D I hope it gets an April release to coincide with her special 9th Anniversary Concert.

The perfomance will be aired on Music Japan TV (GREAT PROMOTION) and she will be performing the following songs:

・Missing You(*)
・Reason(*)
・LADY MIND(*)
・Believe(*)
・Good-bye(*)

Not sure why she's performing LADY MIND twice... Who knows XD
The performance will also get aired again on the 20th and 27th of January
This is more TV promotion than Nami EVER got from Universal-J.
