Namie Amuro

halloalex · Apr 15, 2002, 09:34

Hey there!

Any news about Namie Amuro? What is she doing currently? I ve heard that she married and became pregnant a while ago... But I havent found any information about new albums. Is she not singing anymore?

BTW: If you know a good picture gallery, let me know. She is really gorgeous, right?

Cheers,
alex

Well, she released her last single "I Will" in february and that song was also present on a singles collection, which she released march 13.
That's about it as far as i can tell.

Hey Twisted!

Thx for help!

Have you ever listened to her new single? The last I have in my mind (and my collection) is "A Walk in the Park" - which is really great. But I am still not sure, if that was just a beautiful dayfly or she is really a great musician. However, a star she is already anyway, right?

Cheers,
alex

Twisted · Apr 19, 2002, 05:46

Namie Amuro has been lucky to have great producers around her. That made her the star that she is. I'm not sure whether she would have made it this big without those producers.

She is really cute! And so is her baby son.

Here's her official site

=> http://www.amuro.com/

And her husband's (TRF)

=> http://www.avexnet.or.jp/trf/

1.) she got knocked up ... shotgun wedding I bet by Sam the main dancer from TRF (another komuro family production)
2.) got married and dissappeared at a prime time for her
3.) ayu and hikaru replaced her
4.) didn't her mother get run or something ?
5.) empty comeback

I do believe she's still "happily" married.

Twisted · Apr 22, 2002, 02:51

Yeah, i believe her mother got run over by her uncle.

I don't agree with that empty comeback. When she was big, she was just another 13 in a dozen girlie singer to me.
Now i feel she has matured and I actually look forward to her next release.

kinjo · Apr 22, 2002, 20:16

Yeah Amuro Namie is real good in some some songs
my personal favs r "sweet sweet 19 blues","you r my sunshine","walk in the park" etc etc

And shes got married?! mmmm...any idea how old she is?

And BTW, can anyone enlighten me on ayumi`s best of the best till now. I have just heard one song of hers, "a song for XX" and it was pretty good.

larry_s · Apr 22, 2002, 22:55

Check her full profile here. Born 1977, that makes her veteran among tarentos.

halloalex · May 7, 2002, 09:44

Hope, she will tour through Europe anytime - too sad, that popular Japanese stars like her travel so seldom :-(

kidtokyo · Jun 10, 2002, 11:29

Namie Amuro is one of the innovators of Japanese pop. Her attitude, style, voice, and looks set her apart from the beginning. Not to mention she has some of the most brilliant, catchy, upbeat Japanese songs of all time. Her recent days have not seen the success of her earlier days. She is still very popular in Japan, she is just growing up and seems to be walking away from the high-energy dance world she helped create.

moyashi · Jun 10, 2002, 22:45

Probably doesn't help that Komuro is in a slump or taking it easy recently.

Twisted · Jun 11, 2002, 00:29

Are you sure about that? He's currently releasing a lot of Globe material. I don't think he has much time to produce other artists right now.

I don't believe that TK had much to do with her recent material anyway. That's probably why she sounds different, which, in my opinion, is a good thing.

moyashi · Jun 11, 2002, 10:08

err well, hehe ... you're definitely right about the Globe activity. But they're not much on TV recently. Possibly TK is trying to widen his standing outside of Japan like in Europe and in Asia.

For the last 2 years or so Tsunku from ShaRanQ has taken the lead in group production recently (well using TV exposure as the comparitive). But, all the "morning / musume" groups have slowly died out. I wonder who's next as a family producer? Gackt?

hmmm ... that reminds me. Who is doing amuro's work? I thought it was TK. oh well.

LOL ... I should stop using TV as the measure and start doing research.

Twisted · Jun 12, 2002, 06:14

Well, "Think of me" was produced by Dallas Austin.
Her official website doesn't say who produced her last two singles "Say the word" and "I will".

Say the word
AVCD-30264
words Namie Amuro
music Ronald Malmberg・Thomas Johansson
arrengement Kazuhiro Hara・Keiichi Ueno

I WILL
AVCD-30347
words NAMIE AMURO
music HIROAKI HAYAMA
arrengement HIROAKI HAYAMA
mixed by DAVE FORD

Can't say these names ring any bells with me.

moyashi · Jun 12, 2002, 09:25

avex label ???

for hiroaki

and it seems he was part of D-Loop ... a short lived group.

Scott · Jun 25, 2002, 03:41

I love Nami Amuro. My favorite song of her's is "Can You Celebrate?" Has anyone heard it?

Twisted · Jun 25, 2002, 05:59

Yeah, i've heard it. It's a typical TK-song. It's good, but a bit overdone and too lengthy.
My current Amuro favorite is "Think of me". Not sure why. I heard it again last week and i guess it was the right song at the right moment.

Shinkoo · Oct 11, 2004, 00:07

Anybody know her? If you do, are you a big fan of her? Because I am a fan of her.

Winter · Oct 11, 2004, 04:17

'I Have Never Seen' is one of her very best songs.

e i e n · Oct 11, 2004, 12:39

namie amuro has a very beautiful voice. she's very pretty too!

i love the song "All For You".

RockLee · Oct 12, 2004, 05:44

she's a good singer, but she has different styles...just like ayumi hamasaki

RinniGal · Oct 12, 2004, 22:54

i like her a bit.
my friend knows her...

Eve · Oct 13, 2004, 10:23

haha she blocked the streets at shibuya and caused traffic..

shes ok except for some of her songs have weird titles

DaRC · Oct 14, 2004, 07:00

I Like "Come" but i need to hear more. I cant find any decent DLs and She isnt near the top of my to buy list sadly!
