I just did mine for the CD+Bluray one.

DO IT... you know you want to! LOL :luv2

CDJapan says Digipak, not slipcover. Anyways, mine's fully preordered and paid for. :D

Got EMS shipping with mine. :D

July 10th... this is going to be a looooong wait, hey? :P

PS - I'm disappointed with the exclusion of the Damage (and possibly 'Beautiful') PV's. :(

If I were to, I couldn't order it alone. I couldn't justify the shipping charges from amazon or CDJ lol so hmmm...maybe I'll find a couple of items to buy.

Then that's what I meant. ;)

I'm actually happy that "Damage" was excluded. That was my least favorite song from this era. "Beautiful" on the other hand, I actually enjoyed. :(

Thankfully CD Japan already has the pre-orders up. Yesasia needs to follow suit.

Did she erased her beautiful arm tattoo? :no

I agree...I don't care for Damage!

And where are the amazon.jp links?! Come on amazon!

and mine's July 11th! HAHAHAH

THIS IS SO AMAZING!!!!! and really early for a teaser already

Not sure if I wanted to see Beautiful's PV on there but omg 5 new PVs..is awesome enough already :D
and only ONE song from the singles..awesome

One thing, I wish she'd include Making-Of footage like Ayu & Kuu do a lot with their albums.:(

Oh, andCDJapan ha s posted the trailer & news with links about it being up for preorder on their facebook page already.

What's the name of that song in the teaser!? I saw this on FB and I can't get enough of it.

I"m not even a Namie fan but wow...she is a queen.

@Polyrhythm Not sure but I think it might be Alive.

sounds like she says "i need you lovin' me, i need you lovin' me to make me feel Alive" right at the end when its cut off by the other person saying the name of the album, so that's my best guess.

No Damage or beautiful!
But contrail as the 2nd song will put me to sleep

tbh I kinda wish she'd stop singing in english cause I can't stand her accent...oh well.


I am...so excited for this album. I can't even, like if I express it just a little, I think I'll go pinkie pie crazy or something.

Dimension Point? She's no longer with avex?

It's a sub-label of avex just like Rhythm Zone...

Oh good to know. *whew*

Geez, how many sublabels does Avex have? I've heard a few dozen already :thud

So much news in only a few hours! Not even giving me time to get excited!

Thats not the final tracklist, the songs are just listed alphabetically :P

Amuro Namie, doing it right.

FedEx International Priority 7920yen 3800yen 11720yen (AUD 116.74)
Express Mail Service (EMS) 1500yen 3800yen 5300yen (AUD 52.79)

OW, I think I'll go EMS and just cross my fingers it shows up by the 10th... :thud

Yesasia links are up! Just pre-ordered mine (CD+DVD+POSTER)

http://www.yesasia.com/global/search...o&vn=33&ss=100

I'm SO excited for this. Wasn't too impressed with Uncontrolled but I'm basically loving everything about Feel atm

FedEx is good but here in Canada, it gets here THAT fast cuz they pay customs for you. Then you pay it after a while.
Or at least that's what happened to me.

I preorder my CD+DVD w/ poster from CDJ for only 45$ including shipping with EMS (I freaking LOVE the points redemption on CDJ). When Yesasia include the poster the price will certainly go up...

I'm glad YesAsia is putting up the pre-orders now. I'm getting the CD only HK Press so I have to wait a bit longer before those are added to the site. :(

Btw, does anyone know how long it takes for CDJ to add the overseas versions? I'd be very grateful if someone could tell me. :)

I'm glad that Damage and Beautiful are excluded...they did nothing for me anyway.

I don't even remember them tbh :/

@Earth_Maiden Wow... Price difference between EMS & Fedex for me in Canada was only about $5CAD more for Fedex, but I still took EMS as I had enough points on my account that I only ended up paying 250yen on my order. :D

@Delicious_N_Bold was that when u bought from CDJ? I only think I've used Fedex twice when shopping from them over the years. Done it a lot more with YA, but I've never gotten customs from buying at YA.

@Lady~Deviance CDJapan is located directly in Tokyo, so they ONLY carry Japan Press. Apparently, it's illegal to sell OS Presses of albums, singles and concert DVDs/Blurays in Japan til they've been out for like almost a decade to my understanding.

Her hand on CD + DVD cover looks weird to me. I think if I get this I'll go for CD only seeing as I don't care about the PVs anyway. The exclusion of Damage and Beautiful make me not want to get the album. That, and I don't like what the song in that teaser sounds like. Too early to judge, but I don't think I'll preorder this just yet.

Also, I can't get the poster since the box they put the whole thing in will probably make customs charge me an extra fee for the package. I've never ordered anything with a poster to know this, but the only time I got charged extra was when the box was larger than the standard boxes they ship out with 2-3 CDs. But it makes me sad to not get the poster while everyone else does. xD

Why no Beautiful, why?? Loved it so much.

I ordered the CD+DVD edition on YA without the poster.
I'm really sad about the exclusion of Damage and Beautiful :( those were the best to me out of this whole era. Hopefully an other song on the album will make me change my mind ^^

I love the monochrome covers especially the CD only cover. I was afraid of something similar to Uncontrolled covers. Changing the subject, it seems that she's turning again to her dance tracks roots. Really curious 'bout this one...

In the states EMS usually fairs more well than FedEx, I used FE one time for a Namie order and ended up waiting a week, whereas after I started using EMS I'd get it the same day it's released is JPN but that's just for me personally might be different in other places.

All in all I'm so flipping excited that I got to see preorder links on my break this morning have to wait a couple days but I will definitely be getting this album, and ZOMG love those *********g covers!! Namie is flawless...well to an extent lol :luv2

Preview of Contrail MV and of the Alive song (if i'm not wrong)
http://v.youku.com/v_show/id_XNTYwNTEwNDA4.html

SHE IS SOOO BEAUTIFUL & SWEET!!! I :heart HER SOOO MUCH!!

I CANNOT WAIT FOR THESE!!! :D :D :luv2

@Chiharo well YesAsia ships posters separately in tubes, so its your choice but you do that. And they dont charge extra shipping for cd/dvd+poster combos.

@SoS It was when I bought from play Asia actually. :P

Aren't play Asia and yesasia the same company?

No they're not the same company at all. I think I've only ordered from PlayAsia once.... Pretty decent. Just i hate the set up of their website and their search engine is badly done imo.

Do they? Thanks for the info, I didn't know that. Anyhow, the YesAsia is much more pricier for me than CDJ atm. So I guess I'll just skip over the poster, it's not like it matters that much I guess.

Actually, I'll ask them if they can just fold the poster and put it in the regular box they send out the CDs with, instead of rolling it up and putting in that long box. Or I guess that would not be possible now that I think of it. But nvm, it's worth a shot.

Haha, yeah that's exactly what I mean! (And I'm glad I'm not the only one who sees it :o)

Oh ok, thanks for clearing it up :)


So I listened to the trailer song again. The Engrish is funny, but makes sense if you're speaking, NOT singing.
I'm actually kinda sorta excited to hear the song in full. No namie song has done this since yeah-oh and in the spotlight. Is there a chance that my fandom will be elevated?

yeah, since In the spotlight and yeah-oh are so old (actually, there are only 5 or 6 songs after those XD)

^Old?.... Wow you must think the earthquake couple years ago was ancient then.... LOL

Speaking of old though, I found these from 1995 while browsing around randomly. Such nostalgia. I was only 10 years old. :D :D :heart :heart

Full on gutted that Beautiful and Damage didn't make it on the album :( I guess it gives me a reason to pick up the BBC single though :P
Covers are beautiful and classy - although not really what I expected with her saying it'd be spring/summery songs. CD-only is my fave but I'll prolly grab the CD+DVD version~

I'm so GLAD that damage and beautiful didn't make it. thank god.

also...a little annoyed that she's naming a track "la la la" like..really namie lol

I instantly thought of NaNaNa from Ayu lol

it was just a reply and meant to be ironic

and I was mad at her for that too lol

the tracklist for "FEEL" is great! :)

and wow, the album teaser is amazing! i really like the song that's playing in the teaser, too. i can't wait for this album! :D

I feel like the last person in this world who loves Damage and Beautiful :|

Ur not. I ADORE them. :heart

I'm so happy about this release!! I wasn't expect that!

I just realized I asked the wrong question on the previous page. :P

Does anyone know how long it takes YesAsia (not CDJ) to add the various overseas press of albums? Is it usually right before an album release date?

Sorry for being a nuisance. :P

Nah, a lot of people liked them a lot!
Personally, Damage was plain for me, but I think Beautiful is one of her most beautiful ballads! <3

"Alive" sounds great! Sounds like it is something from her earlier days, like Concentration 20. And I am happy that on BBC made the album and not other single songs. I'd rather get new music than a bunch of songs I've had on my iPod for a while.

Depends. I've seen some go up in a few days while others take couple weeks. Also depends on how popular that item & artist is too. Namie's usually pretty quick though.

I LOVE Beautiful and I also like Damage, but I don't really mind them not being in the album. I mean, I wouldn't mind having them there as bonus, but I really prefer new songs instead.

I adore them too, so! but yep it might look like everyone just hates those two lol

I love Damage too. For me it's one of the best songs she released lately.

^Same. I actually like it more than almost anything on Uncontrolled.

Damage wasnt all that bad, but it wouldnt fit on the album.
And Beautiful... never mind.

No I love Damage and Beautiful.

Originally I hated Damage, but it was a grower for me.

And Beautiful is one of those Namie songs where I HAVE to sing along.

I made a wallpaper for 'FEEL'

http://www.mediafire.com/?hbzfue5b1yk11kg

http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v5...ps0f590e57.jpg

I love the FEEL covers.

I was mad at Ayu for using the same name as a mega classic Kpop song from the 90s. Now if people did a mp3 search, they might download Ayu's crap version by mistake.

love the CM.... I might pre order this!!

I already did preorder it yesterday (CD+Blu-Ray).

I saved so many points at CDJapan that I only paid 21€ incl. shipping instead of 48€ O_o
That's so cool*_*

Alive is gonna be such an amazing songgg @.@ !!!

Made a 35 seconds preview of 'Alive'

https://soundcloud.com/uhplus/alive-35-seconds-preview

Thanks for that, this is going straight to my desktop! =D And for the Alive preview as well!

Wow, those covers are gorgeous! :O And that preview for Alive made me cry for more too! ;__;

Ahh I hope someone can help me!
I preordered yesterday the CD+DVD on Yesasia, today they got the money (Paypal) and on my Yesasia account it says "Processing" . . but now I just realized that I had still alot points on my CDJ Account so it would be way cheaper for me (even with EMS) .. is there any way that I can cancel it? :/
I wrote them a few hours ago already, but still no answer. :(

YesAsia answers within 24 hours, just wait a little bit more ^^

@chasethechance Yeah wait a bit longer. Also theyre in HK, so not sure the time difference between Germany & HK, but for me in Ontario Canada its 12hrs, so I usually have to wait overnight. Don't worry though, they will reply to you.

Thank you! :) I'll wait then.

Germany to Hk is a 6 hour difference

Anyway, those two undisclosed tracks could possibly be damage and beautiful, no?

I heard the previews and I love everything so far... lol...
Man... the woman is on fire right now!

'more' preview

Beautiful as always. :luv2

^ :heart :blove :blove

She's smiling more than ever!
What's happening? I like this.

I really gotta get these magazines she's been in lately... :D
just with the shipping they're so expensive. :(

Wow, that cover is so nice!! Namie's smile is so sweet and her hair is perfection (like alwaysXD)

Thanks hun! I really appreciate the info. :)


I definitely need to collect more magazines that feature Namie. Her shoots are my favorites out of the J-divas. When I was in NYC last week, I picked up 'Sweet' magazine's June issue that featured Namie. It came with a cute tote bag. :D

I live on the east coast in the U.S. and the prices for imported Japanese fashion magazines are somewhat reasonable. (U.S. $8-$13)

That is very reasonable actually. Its hard to find them around here but when i do find the average issue of lets say Vivi for example, price is bumped up to like $24. :eviltongu

namie is beautiful on the More cover! :heart

i like the CD only cover! simple but nice! i can FEEL that smile!

Kinokuya here has all of the magazines and also I seen namie and ayu magazines in Chinatown.

^You have a Kinokuniya!!? That's awesome!!! I WANT ONE HERE!!!

love the new covers! :)

I think we have 3 here. I love that store alot.
Wait no maybe just one.
I remember going to different ones.

^oh thats awesome. we have some asian mags here in my area, but most are Chinese celeb magazines. i rarely see anyone Japanese or Korean on them, and I'm not all that interested in Chinese entertainment. I have to go quite far out of my way to find any of the type i'm looking for most of the time. However we do have a few Korean newspapers around here, which sometimes has something.

Anyways, getting back on topic but i just saw that Namie's listed as being on the July cover of Scawaii as well. The cover out yet? :D :heart

That's where I bought the magazine. :D I've been shopping at Kinokuniya for years. (the food is amazing!) :yes However I was startled when I went there last week and saw that they moved the magazines to the basement area. :P Other stores in the city charge way more for imported Japanese magazines than Kinokuniya I've found.

There's also a Japanese bookstore store in Edgewater, NJ (my homestate) next to Mistuwa Marketplace that sells the magazines as well.

I hope you get one in Canada soon. I think it's a shame you guys don't have one. :no

Thanks. I'm in the large area though, so I'm at very least happy with that. I used to live in small towns my whole childhood and there was never anything of mixed culture really. Couldn't even find bubble tea or pocky. Now its great being up here with all the mixed culture and foods etc. Just sad we don't have that little bit more like what you guys have. I'm thinking of going big time searching for it all (cds, magazines etc) and then when I find the best spot, I'll move much closer to that area. :)

Oh, and is there any photos out yet for the design of the album first press poster of "FEEL"?

I've got the first press bonus posters of Go Round/YEAH-OH and Uncontrolled... it's just like an enlarged version of the jacket... so I'm thinking they may be the same thing. If that's the case I'd love mine because I got the CD+Bluray version :)

https://fbcdn-sphotos-a-a.akamaihd.n...80133095_n.jpg

she looks adorable. But...did she get her fringe again? o_O

Sooo pretty! :blove I don't think those bangs are real, although they're very cute.

Her bangs look a bit out of place, but shes still looks great

Yes, she gotten herself bangs again.

Namie always looks so young and beautiful,

I think her bangs look more like if her hair was pulled half up and brought to the front, so not actual bangs but just fixed to look that way That's what I think anyways ^-^
