^Yeah I just love the "dated" feel from Concentration 20. It just sounds like a classic album and you can almost "feel" how big Namie was in that period.

Uncontrolled is so much better than FEEL. Just kept two songs from the latter.
Which two songs from Feel did you keep? Although I do like Feel, I go through phases where I think it's a bit throwaway and others where I get more enjoyment from it. Alive and Contrail are the best songs for me!

Alive and La La La.
Those two songs are great, they create a certain atmosphere on their own I don't feel with the other tracks. Especially Alive stands out. Idk, the rest feels flat for me somehow. Catchy, but dull.
And with slower songs like Let me let you go I do have a problem with her singing English. Her tone while singing all English is deeper and I don't think it's pleasent to listen to.
It's the same with Only You on Uncontrolled. Though it's the only song on Uncontrolled I really dislike.

My favorites are Heaven, Alive, Stardust in my eyes, Lalala, and Contrail. I didn't give contrail a second listen though at first because it was just whatever, but when the ballad version came out it just really brought out the beauty and quality of the song and now it's one of my favorites. I really hope one day she'll perform the ballad version of Contrail.

I honestly love all of FEEL. Yes, even Big Boys Cry. My stand-out is Stardust In My Eyes though. Beautiful song.

Ugh this is hard. FEEL does have a lot of good songs. I would have to go with La La La and Heaven if I were to choose though. I really do love Contrail, Alive, and Stardust In My Eyes

I never got the love for la la la tbh
It's a good pop song but it doesn't click with me
Alive does. 100%

Well if you hear her live, that's her natural tone no matter the language.

What you're use to hearing is the result of up-pitching in the studio. I'm sure smoking hasn't helped.

Uncontrolled is a hot mess. FEEL's best song: I don't think it has one anymore. Overtime my affection for the songs have waned. They were very of the moment. Nothing that sticks with you.

Maybe "Contrail".

Stardust in my eyes is flawless. Like seriously.

I really love every song on the album too. I didn't care for Big Boys Cry when the single first came out, but I was watching Live Style 2014 the other day and realized how much it's grown on me.

La La La and Contrail were both love-at-first-listen, too. I love La La La for reasons I can't explain and Contrail is fab.

Alive, Poison, Hands on Me, Supernatural Love, and Heaven are all songs that lend themselves really well to a live performance imo. I loved them during the FEEL tour and they were even better during Live Style.

I can't even hate on Rainbow and Can You Feel This Love. They're so cute and while that's usually not my thing, I really enjoy those songs. Rainbow has become so much more entertaining since I listened to it while high and was like "wtf this is Princess Peach's theme song on steroids".

LMLYG is really the only odd track out, lol. I don't hate the song--and the PV is so beautiful it makes everything seem better.

FEEL is still an amazing album but "La La La" is legendary. It's ridiculous how perfect that song is.

Everything except her facial features looks oddly computer-generated. No thanks.

I hope we get a snippet of a new song in the CM!
