^You're right, but it doesn't change the fact that we want her to do it and will be disappointed if she doesn't.

^I doubt Disney can't pay her price if Gainax or Japanese tv-stations can. They may be really offering a ridiculously low amount.

Disney is evil. Like Wal*Mart.

Anyway, 9 years ago this week, Devil Inside was topping the Billboard Dance charts! Ugh <3 I miss her so much. Whenever I ponder her (hopeful) eventual return to the US market also, I am very pleased to remember that EMI will be handling those future releases also. Do you guys think she will continue to keep the Japanese and English releases separate or do you think she'll say screw it and do bilingual albums??

Or they might be asking for something really high.


They kinda have the grounds to do that. Disney has been milking the shit out of those two first songs with all of their commercials and everything. AND the instrumentals are tied to the composition.

There's a shit load of negotiations to happen there.


It's also kind of why it's still super shitty that he said for sure she was gonna do it, and then retracted.

I don't give a crap about kingdom hearts but if this means a new song then giiive me!

off topic but i just listened to the new girl Kaho since she's everywhere in the news lately and i think i have come to like her! LOL Her voice is deeper than Hikki's but when I tried to play her song on a higher key, she sounded a bit like her. But i swear, i feel like Kaho and Hikki has got similar techniques on their BG vocals. I really felt like Hikki is also singin with her through the BG vocals of the song! LOL i wonder if hikki mentors kaho secretly. I wanna watch that girl more

when I found out she was doing the new song, I was all over that. LOL

Blasphemy.

I know there's gonna be an eternal wait, but it's awesome that she's returning for KH3. It's like her thing. I'm sure the song will be epic!

^Oh, seriously?! How the hell did I miss that...?! And I really thought I saw a tweet from her...but I did think at the time that something looked...out of place about it. Hmph. So it was a hoax?

All those relevant tweets are the third page of this thread, you know.
They caused a big stir, and AHS didn't miss out on the 'fun'. It was a damn mess.

Utada never says anything on work-related subjects... This way she saves all the hating for her dad.

This is not being bitter, this is everyday marketing. Your team (and her dad is part of her team) do the dirty stuff so you keep your image clean. Utada is probably as aware of the money aspects of her career as her dad is, but she won't take the front on any controversial aspect of it, as japanese people hate their celebrities being controversial.

Beyoncé's father did the same for the most of her career for example, and most popstars have their managements taking jabs alone for decisions the stars themselves were probably part of. I'm not saying Hikki is a mean bitch or that she is using her father, he is pretty aware of what his role is on her career.

Cute little pumpkin > KH3 song.

The one good thing about Island Def Jam was how they handled her remixes for her singles. They always put together a great package. I was looking through them the other day. I forgot I even had a couple of very rare official ones for 'Come Back To Me' and 'Dirty Desire'.

Regardless, I really am confident that she'll do the KH3 song. Like come on bitch, if you're not bored and/or just ready to go into the studio to do one song, then just do it for the fans! lol

Utada singing the KH3 theme song is enough for me to go buy the game.
