Well I feel completely empty inside now. Her retirement was the final nail in the coffin of my adolescence.

This is such a sad moment, the end of an era...
I wish Namie all the best in the world, but I can't help being so emotional over her retirement.

I'm so sad but at least we still have the music. I've been listening to her for over 10 years and I'll keep listening until I can't hear anymore.

I hope Namie has a happy retirement. She's left such a legacy and done so much for us fans in terms of her music and lives. As sad as it is, I'm glad that she's doing what she wants.

I also really hope that the press wouldn't pester her after the retirement. Especially since they've already been harassing her family...

I'm trying to hold back my emotions. I don't want to acknowledge that it's over. It's too upsetting to see the era of Jpop that I love take another step closer to becoming a thing of the past. But nevertheless Namie will always be special to me.
I was listening to Play yesterday and rediscovered Should I Love Him? and Pink Key. They are part of Namie's hidden gems. In regards to the Uncontrolled topic from earlier. I love that album. One of my favorites.
Uncontrolled and Feel remain my favorite releases for the 2010s. Feel is actually a contender for my all time favorite albums of hers.

I'm glad she performed #1! EDIT: Or rather, Unusual, why do I always mix these songs up? Love em both though!

I wonder what she'll do on her first day of retirement? Must be weird to have no more engagements.

It doesn't feel like she's retired yet to me but I still have to watch the Finally tour which I am planning on starting tonight!

They added the final video on the ALLFOR916 website. It's nothing special as it's just a continuation of the other videos with fans singing. But the part at the end that says "We won't forget the time we spent with you" .....



Also city buses in Naha en route to the convention center are Namie themed. It was put together by donators.

Apparently they'll also sell mini models at ¥3,900.

They've already moved on to her 26th year
