Namie Amuro must have gotten wind that Koda Kumi shamed her on the video for "Escalate" by snatching her concept for "Love Game" and taking it to the next level. So as the good veteran that she is, she's not gonna sit there and let this thing go. In fact she's back with the first single for 2012 called Go Round.
The single will be released March 21, and will come in two editions: CD & CD+DVD. So nothing new there. There's going to be a B-side called "YEAH OH" included on that single. According to her Facebook page the PV is already scheduled to be shot. Let's see what Mrs. Amuro cooks up for this release. "Go Round" sounds like an upbeat song and it best be top notch. I'm talking "WILD" and "What a feeling levels". "YEAH OH" doesn't really scream ballad, which is a good thing. I'm fed up of Namie's ballads. They've all sounded so generic and never managed to reach the high level of "The meaning of us".
I don't know about you guys but I smell a new album with a summer release. I'm not to excited yet, because Namie's single have been well...not really her best. Besides "Sit! Stay! Wait! Down!" that was in my opinion absolute fire and her best in 2011. I just really hope she redeems "Naked/Tempest/Fight together", because I really didn't feel that single. Naked was way to over the place, that song was trying way to hard and it failed to deliver and the other two were generic as f*ck.
The Queen of Hip-Pop is coming for wigs.
