I'm so mad. My copy of Finally arrived yesterday and it's literally in pieces...the cover to the case came right off, the bottom of the case is broken, UGH. They're sending me a replacement and I have to return this version but you can bet your ass I'm keeping the lottery code.

So pressed.

my album will take ages from CD Japan <.<
Hope it will be in time for the lottery because I want to give my code to a good friend who wants to see namie live so badly before she retires.

Amazon.jp ... normally they package everything really well and their shipping is kick-ass but I'm incredibly disappointed.

^ That's horrible about your album!
Hopefully your replacement comes quickly! you're right to keep that lottery code lol

Also, today is the first day of the ALARM campaign I believe! It's shot up to #18 for today.



Here's to hoping it ends up in the weekly Top 10!

It's an unofficial campaign organized by fans to get ALARM to chart in the Weekly Top 10 since it's the only single of Namie's not to do so. (It peaked at #11).

They've organized it for this week (11/13 ~ 11/19) and it's pretty neat because TOWER RECORD stores across Japan have been actively promoting and supporting the campaign for a while now, both on Twitter and in the stores themselves.

I think for at least a few weeks now, a lot of the stores just have these massive walls of ALARM copies lmao.

Is there any date stated for Public ballot results to be out? I know fan space ballot results are on 28th?
Or is it that all results will be out by 28th and its just that, public members enter the randomizer 2 days after (tomorrow)

I really think it's highly possible that she'll hit the 2 million mark during the next year...

I hope ALARM can make TOP 10 but it seems 1st day is under 1000, which is quite low with all the new stuff coming out this week

Woow one of the best CM ever made.
It's incredible how young she looked for 1992 period.
I'm not so familiar with her first PVs, what are the tributes ?
I would say :
1992 : Body Feels Exit (Not sure)
2000 : Say the word
2010 : WILD
2017 : not sure too but the color of the dress make me think of Fashionista
