Depending on who she is working with, Namie's English can be quite decent to completely awful. Signs of Life was also around this level I think. Usually she sounds good when Verbal is there to help her on pronouncing the words considering his English. She sounds decent in this one too, with only a few parts that I had trouble understanding. But maybe since I'm Japanese I have an easier time with "Engrish"? haha~ I also like that they changed the beat as the chorus went on to make it sound less "Jennifer Lopez-ey".
