In 2018, Namie Amuro sadly retired from the entertainment industry.

Since her debut in the 1990s, she produced numerous major hits in partnership with Tetsuya Komuro, and sparked social phenomena such as the emergence of countless girls who imitated her fashion—dubbed “Amurers.” She truly is a songstress the Heisei era can be proud of.

Among her works, “CAN YOU CELEBRATE?”, released once in 1997 and a massive hit, remains a beloved wedding staple even well into the 2020s.

Commissioned as a “Komuro-style wedding song,” its lyrics—rendered in Komuro’s distinctive turns of phrase—movingly portray a future walked together by two lovers.

Even so, it’s astonishing to remember that Amuro, who delivers the song with a mature, black-music-inspired vocal style, was only 19 at the time.

Goodbye, my beloved.Hana＊Hana

Released in 2000, this song was used as the theme for the drama “Oyaji.” It is about the singer’s experience at age 16 of parting with a beloved grandfather, and its expression of that sense of loss in words that also resonate with heartbreak, together with the beautiful vocals, makes it all the more moving.
