EVERYTHING IS AWESOME IN GROTESQUE PV.
He is awesome being all manly man with a girl's voice.
Namie is awesome being all sophisticated, dead and GORGEOUS.
The songs is awesome and supercatchy.
I love the concept, the black and white, and I ADORE THAT BUNNY.
(Ugh. My Donnie Dark feelings are not under control right now. I'm gonna go watch that perfect movie tonight.)

The parts with Namie reminds me YEAH-OH PV a bit...
But the whole video is cool, and aestistic ^^

I think the pv is kind of boring and badly edited. You can totally see an outline around them when the background is black...

And I still can't bring myself to like his vocals >_<

oh my god that was the most awkward pv i've ever seen

i don't think she could POSSIBLY have been more disengaged???

Can't like this song. Just won't be happening for me :( she looks good though
Can't believe he's 42!

I agree with the disengaged statement. But it's very well possible they never even met to shoot this video and did it completely separate. Like Brandy and Monica in "The Boy Is Mine". Although I think I saw them together in that behind the scenes YouTube clip so maybe not. And I bring that song up because I'm getting all kinds of "The Boy Is Mine" feels from this. Sorry Ken.

And with that said....I LOVE THIS VIDEO and it definitely made this song better, although I was liking what I heard of the song anyway. But everything is on point. Could have been better and more involving in addition to all of the revolving, but what was there on display was still good.

Love the concept. Something different. Namie would have never had a Rabbit Judge Bangin' a Gavel up in any of her works! Thank you Ken.

Also, when Namie stepped out in that white outfit, I thought she had a cape behind her and I was about to give all my lives to her, until I realized it was just the graphics inside the doorway behind her.

But that black dress was still giving me Angelina Jolie on the Red Carpet vibes with all that leg hanging out. She looked like Mrs. Roger Rabbit sans the red hair and near 'bout took my life and killed me anyway.

Sidenote: What was Hirai doing with his tongue? And why did he turn Amish? I didn't think they believed in divorce.

He went from fierce right down to Horse & Buggie and gave any life Namie took from me right on back. Thanks a lot Ken.

JPOP version of Mr & Mrs Smith

The outfit has a cape from waist down

Song is a better version of Make It Happen. Video is a boring version of Yeah-Oh.

They make an adorable couple, both have dead expressions

Couldn't agree more, although she looked amazing all-throughout :yes

Yeah, the song is cool... but their bored face expressions are contagious!

mp3 rip from HD PV...

Thank you!

Lately I've been listening to these to albums, break the rules and Concentration 20

break the rules is such a cool album, some songs could be better but it has a cool vibe as a whole

Concentration 20 is just so... noisy, I coudn't stand any song! The only really good for me is CAN YOU CELEBRATE? <3

^How dare ye speak of Concentration 20 that way XD but for real there's some good songs on there the title track alone is awesome you definitely need to see the live for that because that song is 10x as amazing live as it is recorded.

I used to love Break The Rules when I first got it. I got so much fun out of that album! I still like a lot of the songs on there (Cross Over!) but I don't listen to it as much nowadays.

Concentration 20 is the other way round for me. At first I only liked the odd song or two, then a few years ago the whole album clicked (even Storm is kinda fun lol!). I love the dated feel of the album, it makes it feel like such a "classic" album.

This is what I thought watching the video and hearing the song for the first time,too:D

But I think the video is as good as the Yeah-Oh PV.

Yamashita is a good looking guy, i'll say that. But he sounds like a dead, prostituted goldfish in UNUSUAL
