I'm so excited for Ballada, a lot of the older ballads I haven't even heard yet, aside from any performances on her later tours.

What pisses me off is that I was just thinking the other day "What if Ayu made MVs for some older classics that never received MVs..." and then I fantasized for a short while about how great it would be to have such a surprise like that and how crazy the fandom would go to get a real HANABI PV. And then I brushed it off cause it is virtually impossible for her to do that...

And now Namie goes and makes new PVs for old songs...

I think my heart would give out if Ayu went back and made a PV for HANABI. Or July 1st (or both <3<3).

There are a ton of songs by ayu that I want a video for. So I won't even begin to list them. lol As for Namie, I really want a video for Beautiful. For a while we all thought that little snippet of her singing the song in that mu-mo commercial was going to be the video but we never officially got one.

Great strategy releasing a best album this year after a high peak, "Ballada" will sell tons.

And compilations usually are aimed for people who doesn't care enough about the artist to get the studio albums but care about the singles, so, if you already have all of those tracks, the thing is not made for you.
I know but it's the only chance to have an artist re-record an old song with new (often better) vocals. Best albums were a good thing in the 90's before CDs vere common, when you had half songs on one side of a tape and half on the other and you couldn't just play whatever you like without changung sides and fastforwarding, now everyone can make their own compilation so with each BEST I'm always hoping for something that's not already on my shelf or HDD.

Tell that to all people buying compilations, maybe they don't know they shouldn't be buying compilations anymore...

You know, your buying interests aren't the official measurement for the market, and compilations still make both the artists and the labels tons of money. It's no surprise Namie is releasing a new one every 3 years.

AUGH FREAKING OUT OVER CONTRAIL BALLAD VERSION

The covers are kind of meh to me, but oh well. I think everyone saw this coming after the polling they did last month for picking your favorite ballads, lol.

Edit: The release date is June 4th, for anyone who didn't see that. Mika, Miliyah, and Namie all destroying my wallet on the same day...

^Not just your wallet lol, those 3 are my 3 faves


The covers would've looked so much better without that hat

Arena Tour 2014 has also been announced, my guess is it will be Live Style 2014, as I don't see her doing an all ballad tour... but you never know

Just curious question, does Namie do concerts in December? I'd love to go but I don't think she ever had a tour in December.

What are you talking about? The FEEL tour and her 20th anniversary tour both had dates in December.

I never really tracked her tours so I didn't know but thanks for the answer.

I love how they cut the bits of many PVs to make it seems like it's a Can you celebrate PV

Sorry if I sounded a bit snippy, it just seemed like a strange question since all of her tours since 2007 or so have had dates in December.

That commercial is great! I love the way they edited it together.

I'll be in Japan from Dec 19th till Jan 5th, does she have concerts so close to the end of the year as well?
