Because she's gorgeous ;')

^nah I don't find it that good either, and the song isnt that great.

[Pieces_of_SEVEN]

Listened to the leaked tracks yesterday and can't remember any of them except for birthday. It has a cute melody, but the engrish is SUCHHH a huge turn off.

[thinkingoutloud89]

^maybe it is because I'm not a native speaker .... but I think she improved from FEEL quite a bit.
LMLYG is probably the worst she could have done and I hope she will re-record it someday.

That would be a waste of a re-record. She said, "Let me let you go," and that's exactly what I did at the end of the verse. I hit STOP. And was gone.

[Corvina]

I think a lot of her (older) PVs are pretty boring, but actually Stranger PV looks nice for me so far.
Really like the choreography and her long dress combined with that setting.

The song on the oher hand is still so repetitive.
I'd like it more if it wouldn't basically repeating the same verse over and over and over.

I feel the same. She's not delivering this time.

[~kashifaita~]

I'm actually really enjoying Photogenic and Golden Touch. They feel like such a breathe of fresh air to me. If only the rest of the album had that same feel <<. Stranger and Birthday are pretty decent too though, but not great, and Fashionista is just eh. Anything is this albums Only You and, well, I really disliked both songs >>;;.

Just gotta say that I think the Birthday PV is really, really cute. Namie's smiles are way too adorable, at least for me. I'm going to wait for the full Stranger PV to judge but, so far, I only things I like about it are her dress and the dance lol.

Yeah idk, I remember saying this album wasn't going to be all that but, personally I think it's going to be really good...after repeatedly listening to the previews. I'm most excited to hear her take on B who I want 2 B.

[CoriKaru]

As unfortunate as this Album is turning out to sound and I say this based solely on the previews because I am not pressed in the least to hear the leaks. It's not that I'm resisting. It's that I don't give a fuq. But I will say I am most looking forward to hearing "Fly" and "Space Invader".

"Scream" to a lesser extent. Everything else can fall down. Hit branches and trees on the way down. Hit rocks at the bottom. And not make it. I'll sign the "Do Not Resuscitate" form. All praise and glory unto him.

If you love typicals Namie videos you will love it lol

Making of

Exactly. Namie has a million of these simple backdrop dance videos but the director of "Stranger" is a genius who knows how to make a simple setup look exciting by ways of moving the camera and effective lighting. That's good production value.

[Zeke.]

Lol, I read LMLYG as "Let Me Love You Girl." You can tell I didn't give that song a second thought after its release.

It's basically Born To Be... but with someone on set who knows how to properly control lighting.

Ayu's Born To Be looks kinda cheap now

CACKLING

[NintendoHTF1242]

Stranger just scalped all my faves SLAY me Namie.

[Tom Punks]

I can't get over Namie stumbling ALL OVER the verses in Birthday lol. It's SO tragic.

Anything reminds me of something from melody.'s Lei Aloha which was like 10 years ago now sooo... I don't think it's the worst song anymore after hearing it in full, but it's definitely got the most embarrassing, robotic lyrics I've heard in a long time.

Photogenic and Golden Touch are my favs.

Okay, "Production Value," is beginning to get out of hand. It is becoming the new "COHESIVE ALBUM."
We use it as if we really truly grasp the concepts of this industry. lol
Industry being FILMING (as well as music).

If it sounds good: "It's COHESIVE guys!
If it doesn't: "Created my own playlist on iTunes, guys! Took out all the Album tracks and made an Album with just the Singles. It's the best!"

Correction: It now IS a BEST.

It looks good: "Production values!
If it doesn't: Video is ugly, but she SMILES well. This nearly 40 something year old GROWN WOMAN smiles well. I didn't think she could do it, but this middle aged woman really did it! Go HER!

Like how old are we compared to this toe dipping in her 50s year old woman to be telling her she smiles well? Like LOL. Who are we?!

[Delicious n Bold]

If you take out all the album tracks from this album, you get nothing left.
Oops.

[Pieces_of_SEVEN]

ughhh what a mess. disappointed!

[melissalove]

Haven't listened to the previews yet but the videos look amazing. I'm super excited. a lot of negativity going around, well that's what leaks do.
