[Namie Amuro] ♛ the 85th thead ♛

[Heavenly]

She's the only one who can bring awesomeness completely out of nowhere !
Everybody was like "Where is Namie ? I hope she releases something soon..." and BAM! a fully new album ! And it seems already freaking good !

She's a true (photogenic) slayer ;D !

[ak.malfoy]

While the other J-divas are struggling to make ends meet with their latest album releases, Namie just peeks into some random hole in the wall and drives everyone nuts

[AYUmyQUEEN]

Wow covers look great! Hopefully we get some emotion with this release! That's probably too much to ask tho...

[everlastingRAINBOW]

This album and Ai's are gonna beast this summer. All other's can suck it!

[primavera♥]

I really love the covers and packaging. It's a great look. I haven't really been able to get into Namie's music in a while since the styles she uses lately usually are very difficult to impress me with and they're just okay. But the genre descriptions still sound interesting and those singles won't be on there. I'll give this a try when it happens. Between this and Ai's new album, my interest may be revived in two of my older favorites. Just quite the wait *sigh*

Ha that's what I just said! Ai was gone so long, and I never fully loved all the tracks on her albums. And LOVE FANTASTIC was all wrong. But her new image looks great and the tracks sound fun and cohesive, which is a huge plus. Uncontrolled to me was okay, but the image and singles didn't really mesh: it felt like an afterthought. ALIVE was more cohesive, but the music genres were a litte too American top 40 and generic for me to fully love (and then you had silly tracks like Can you feel this love). But listening to the little Photogenic preview, seeing the covers and tracklist being released together, and having all new music promised in a throwback style- this is Jpop to me. I was missing the Japaneseness of her music from P<F back, and the cohesiveness of style and tone. I also like the underscore in the album title which makes me think of P<F.

Dying to pre-order but both my debit and credit cards expire before June! I've already had to put A One on the credit card as it is! Hoping I can pre-order by the end of April.

I'm dead. 2015 is a glorious year.

[No_Doubt]

Those album covers are just no (I'm assuming it's gonna be a slipcase with the proper cover underneath).

This is pretty much guaranteed to be THE pop album of 2015 though. Can't wait!

I'll pre-order the blu-ray tonight. There is a new program on CD Japan that if you post your Japan trip pictures they'll give you 500 points. So I need to do that first, which will give me a total of over 1200 points i.e. free EMS shipping

How is it that you get 500? I just posted something and they said I'm only eligible for 50 points.

I AM SPEECHLESS. EVERYTHING IS SO AMAZING, I JUST CAN'T DEAL WITH IT. BRB, DYING.

[Tom Punks]

I don't like the album title or photoshoot/covers (they look cheap af) but that preview sounds so old school (or middle school? lmao) Namie!

I just saw that too. I posted a post with 10 pictures. It says pending for 50 points. What I read was that you can get up to 500 points in one month, so maybe we should try posting an album with one picture in each of it until we get 500 points Lol

^ time to spam them with the various food pics lol

Me as hell right now.

[Maemi]

OMG I can't wait!!! It looks amazing

btw I updated the first page with the new inf

[Beauty4123]

...currently speechless & still trying to process all of this perfection....

...Okay, I'm done! And omg, I'm on that "_genic" special site, right now & wow...this album's photoshoot is AMAZING! I am loving Namie's whole look, her hair, outfit...it's all stunning, fierce & total perfection. Speaking of perfection, once again, I am in loooove with the album covers! Especially the CD only. And it's also very nice to see that the tracklist is the same, as well. I've also just seen that Teaser CM & is that song playing, "Photogenic"? Judging by what Namie seems to be saying in that song.

Ahhh! This is all just too much. Please, June....I need you & this album to get here reeeally soon! Totally can't wait.
