[Namie Amuro] 74th Thread ~ Thank the world for 20 years of love & support ~

[emi♡]

blahhh was it freeleech for you?

[pommy48]

Yeah! It's still up for freeleech now *_*

[prussian blue]

I'm off to buy Namie's Taiwan tour ticket noq will buy the middle area since I cant afford the closest area to her.

Hope I get the ticket, I'll be back either with tears or with a huge smile

Cant wait for the concert next year!!

[Acile]

Aw, I wish I was in Asia to visit her concerts in person... instead I'll wait for the DVDs and watch all the videos I can find! She does look awesome in all of her outfits (I don't really have a favorite there, maybe the classy t-shirt and mini skirt ensemble), although I dislike her hair in ponytails and tied up. It's most beautiful when falling loosely~

The crowd didn't seem that enthusiastic but maybe their cheers were so loud that they had to edit it out xD

I'm thinking they did edit the cheering out. I have a feeling it would have overpowered her lol.

I just finished watching the whole youku file and, ........... oh my....... barely any dancing ( which is what we all love) Namie just stood in front of the audience, motionless. Sometimes she didn't even crack a smile. . hopefully this isn't the actual concert location placed on the DVD because im not buying it.

TV ver gonna be Osaka ver n DVD gonna be Tokyo Dome ver, according to what rumoured.

She do start look tired after few song, eps in "In The Spotlight (TOKYO)", she try to shake her hips move her leg but not afford to move much.

In this show or Live Style 2011 she start look tired after halfshow, i think one of the reason becoz she have to dance choreography-ly or stand for whole show, not even theres a prop for her to sit/rest in between like in Best Fiction Tour or Past Future Tour.

OMG i'm still downloading .-. I miss 40 parts XD

[ayu_ready?]

I've caught myself listening to the whole Namie's discography this x-mas and for the New Year. it really feels good

[elaniel]

Has anyone purchased any of the limited Japan re-releases of her albums?

If so, are the obifolds different than the original releases and are the booklets the same from the same?

I ask as I want to replace my overseas versions of a few of her albums with the Japan presses, but don't want to buy the re-releases if they're of lower quality than the originals.

Thanks in advance!

I just realized what feels wrong in this concert. There's no cheering from fans through the songs, only between them, when one song ends, that's why it feels weird, in dvd they probably enhance its volume in some uplifting parts of the song and here it's like studio album (of course Namie sings live, but I bet they record her voice separately and the music too, that's why there's no other noise like the fans)

The obis are different, just took some pictures for you

All of the albums have the same style obi. They feel a bit cheap compared to standard obis but I like how they're CD jacket size. idk if the booklets are different cause I only got the re-releases of her albums that I was missing (181920 + Checkmate) but I'm 98% sure they're the same.

[elaniel]

Thanks for making the effort looking and taking photos! Grr, I was hoping the obis would be the same as the originals, as I don't want them looking too uniform LOL.

The booklets are exactly the same.
The bad thing about those OBIs is that you can't properly store them IN the CD case. I have 2 re-released albums (PLAY and Chackmate!) and I had to fold the OBIs to put them with the booklet, in the case

[pommy48]

I found this really mashup of Namie's YEAH-OH with BIG BANG's BLUE and was wondering if someone have the mp3 of it?

Not sure if this was pointed out before but was this the first concert where she wore ear monitors? Anyone know why she started wearing them?

She didn't use it before? Well I believe they are definitely necessary for a dome concert.

PS: so many releases on feb 27th. o_õ
