The scene is absolutely beautiful, and Namie with piano is such a surprising combo.

toLOVE 26th June 2013 02:36 AM

Will the album just leak already?!!
Let Me Let You Go sounds rearry beautiful. I for one am happy that Namie's taking a new direction in music. Her old music are good, but I want something new and refreshing. That's why I LOVE Namie <3 She sounds pretty different in almost every album.

I really dont care about the engrish, the song/video is amazing sounding so far.... lol. I really like the alive preview too...

Benikari47 26th June 2013 03:16 AM

Can't believe her vocals went from this:



To "Let Me Let You Go", she clearly did her homework lol. That song.. just no.

I thought that was a SNL-esque melodramatic skit joke thing when it first started. Cannot believe that that was ever put out to the public on television as a real thing to sell something.

EDIT: HAHAHA

I love everything about Let Me Let You Go.

I had no idea she played piano. Her vocals are on point, however I could slightly hear the autotune. Just slightly, but that doesn't bother me: who doesn't use autotune.

I'm not gonna complain about another song in English. I'm a ****ing English speaker. Better for me!

Namie... *slow clap*

Her english is...It's just that, you know, when you have the pure piano and vocal combo, it's like they both have to be really perfect, because it's the only thing to concentrate on.

I like her vocals, but I think it would have been 10x prettier in Japanese. Just my ears though.

I'm with you in this and I agree about the whole it's a piano + vocal only song so it needs to be really perfect. Although at earlier I started to dismiss my concern about her Engrish but Let Me Let You Go made my concern even worse. I love her vocals in other Piano ballad like Beautiful because it's in her native language so she can sing it perfectly. But this? I love the scenery, her looks and her playing the piano but the way she sings an English ballad? :no

They better release Alive already, I feel like it's my savior for her English releases in this era :laugh

jiarongisme 26th June 2013 04:51 AM

I'm really liking how it sounds. Yes, I would've preferred it to be in Japanese, but the English doesn't bother me as much... Yet. Maybe I'll be more/less annoyed with the English when the full version comes out. But the song sounds like a beautiful one.

pheonixflame15 26th June 2013 04:51 AM

I don't care for Namie's ballads usually with the exception of Baby Don't Cry and Get Myself Back, but I LOVE this new ballad. The PV is beautiful!!

ILoveGeniuses 26th June 2013 05:42 AM

I LOVE LMLYG & Alive Previews!! They sound FANTASTIC!!! In Fact, This Entire Album Is Slaying Me... except for BBC which I like but still needs to grow on me more.

Btw, did anyone else notice that CDJapan STILL hasn't updated the tracklist info on the album's item pages? -_-

ak.malfoy 26th June 2013 06:16 AM

Dear Namie, I love you, your music and your continuous self-reinvention... but all the English singing is starting to get a little out of hand. Not that I'm saying it's bad, but you still sound so much better in Japanese.

PS - I'm still getting the album though! :D

Delicious n Bold 26th June 2013 06:22 AM

I don't know which version to get anymore. Maybe CD Blu Ray.
Getting this album for sure now and I like all 3 covers.
Hmm. I'm rearry impressed. LMLYG is gonna be the new song of which I make fun. Heaven, Hands on me and alive are just total jams. I don't care what language she speaks, just give the jam and peanut butter. I love how she gives NO ***** sounding piss poor when speaking English. It's probably my fav Namie trait. She seems fearless.
Even contrail and bbc have grown on me. This is the most ive ever cared about a Namie album. At most it's 3 songs. Here it's 4+.

SunshineSlayer 26th June 2013 07:57 AM

I think LMLYG sounds and looks fantastic. People are being way too picky about her pronunciation.

Possessionless 26th June 2013 08:42 AM

Album cm:

jiarongisme 26th June 2013 09:02 AM

^ Pretty sure that's fanmade.

Anyway, Taiwan press for FEEL is up for preorders at 5music. (If anyone other than me and Karen is interested lol)
Seems like the poster is generic for all versions. Still not sure how it looks like though. I'm gonna preorder the CD+DVD one now!

Pretty much how I feel! I like the songs so far, so I guess I'm really happy for that. I hope the people not liking this new direction like her next album perhaps, or get into some of the other album tracks on FEEL. :)

THIS.

I don't mind her Engrish that much in fast-paced songs, but in a ballad it's just too obvious. Anyway, it's a nice song regardless and she looks gorgeous.

I'm really looking forward to hearing Alive in full

toniayu 26th June 2013 10:15 AM

I'm happy about namie singing in english,anyway I hope she doesn't stop making songs in her native language.
Yesterday I preordered my copy of the album YAY!

TeamAyu2004 26th June 2013 10:50 AM

getting more and more excited about this album.
at least one of m girls (out of the three. you know who you are!)
Is doing something right this year.

BlackSilence 26th June 2013 11:23 AM

somehow i think even for her singing english in ballads is much more easier, i mean it all sounds clearer, while in up-beat tracks it just sound like a mess at least in the new ones, because i franckly never had a problem with any other english track from Uncontrolled *shrugs*
