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

[ILoveGeniuses]

While I'm not super fond of Namie's addition to the song, the fact that it happened ended up with it being mentioned here, which reminded me of TLC even existing. I hadn't listened to them in over a decade and a half and had forgotten about the group altogether. However, this led to me buying a few albums of theirs the other day, so to all those people complaining, "You're *******ing welcome."

[jean-baptiste]

Controversy = sales. When Lopes' family gets that royalty check and 15 minutes in the spotlight, they definitely won't be complaining then.

**** ignorant racist remarks. No wonder Namie does some things "without international audience in mind."

Sorry, it was funny at first when a girl with the name 'Reigndrop' is *****ing but now it's just annoying.

[Delicious n Bold]

I caved in and bought the CD/DVD edition.
That cover IS me. (I say **** i never should and namie is giving me life with those dead eyes) Namie is doing EVERYTHING RIGHT this time!

I wanna rank her higher in my tier, but she isnt 2nd tier yet. I'll give her her own tier because she's just doing everything for me lately.

Oh and can I ask about the quality of the DVD? Since it's all shot in HD, will the DVD be better off this time? I know its mainly for blu ray, but still.

I FINALLY watched Namie's HEAVEN's pv today and I keep hearing the 1-pound fish song. *must be going crazy*

And that's stupid because they know how to pronounce "W"'s.

Now if the song was called, "Lottery".....

EDIT:



And I'm dead. "Waterfarrs". Lulz.

They make Namie look like a straight up hack. A joke of Japan. And that Video they used to introduce her didn't help. Not her best moment. Not her best look. Not her best song. And LOOOL.

Namie's version does suck though.

Being shot in HD just means they filmed it with cameras of bluray 1080p resolution, they still shrink it down to 480p or 540p standard definition for DVDs.

[Pieces_of_SEVEN]

I am so psyched for this album~!

[pheonixflame15]

Omg TMZ....not cool. Is this what American media coverage has come to? People are mad over her collaboration with TLC so they have to make fun of her racially...using Big Boys Cry? Her own song?

[jiarongisme]

^ TMZ has always been a trashy tabloid site. Which is why I disrespect them so much lol.

FEEL CM:

[pommy48]

Ah I hope that's not really the Alive PV! =_=

[ILoveGeniuses]

^I doubt it is. Probably just promotion for the album is all. There's no more updates on her Facebook or Twitter about it yet, so they're probably still working on it.

About the American media, they're such *******s towards practically everyone. TBH, I'm super surprised that they haven't also angered people like PSY & Jackie Chan as well making these type of racist comments. PSY's become huge lately, and JC's been a huge movie actor for the past couple decades. Both of them speak English rather well, but even I notice errors in their English. Also wondering if Namie or avex will ignore it or do something about it.

[pimenta]

If those scenes are part of the Alive PV it may be interesting... as long as the whole PV isn't only with this city scenes of course.

About the TMZ video... well, it's just TMZ being TMZ...

[freedreamer]

omg i love Let Me Let You Go so much. It fits what I feel so badly and the scenery is absolutely breathtaking.

[Zeke.]

I hope she stops the English stuff soon because it sounds like a deaf person singing.

[thinkingoutloud89]

maybe you are deaf. LMLYG has one of her best vocals. Tough, I rather have japanese songs. I can see her point of making western music with western lyrics, but it would also be a feat to bring both, japanese language and western music together to make amazing tracks and not just amazing tracks which are sold on every street corner in the USA

I don't mean deaf as in vocal-wise. I mean, her pronunciation is similar to how a deaf person pronounces words. Ayu has that problem as well, only much more so (For example, in LOVE'n'HATE when she says 'zero' as "jjero" I can't help but cringe). English phrases in songs here and there are fine but Namie is taking it to an extreme this time around.

[Delicious n Bold]

It's no supplies that her Engrish rearry bothers some people.
I think it's at the point where her ****** English is her charm.

On a serious note, Japanese does have some of the sounds with which Ayu and namie are flopping. I guess they sing how they want, sing how they like even though they may come across as deaf. Ayu's half deaf though, so it's ok I guess.

Guys is there a direct download link for Contrail's PV in HQ? I can't seem to find any here :/

[George]

^ Found this but I can't attest to the quality. it's from mlbeto1111pvsection.blogspot.com

[Maemi]

Thank you very much
