^Well, that year, Hikki had been doing a lot of tv performances for COLORS and promotion for Live Screaming. So she was still very much in the public eye.

2003 - (late) 2005 was horrible as a Hikki fan. It was like an Utada drought!

hmm is it just me or does hikki sounds like she's saying "simple world" instead of beautiful world @_@ in beautiful world?

I remember no one thought it was "beautiful boy" but me. They thought it was like "beautiful toy" or something, I forget.

^ lol really? xD it never even crossed my mind she said something other than "beautiful world" and "beautiful boy".

maybe because afterwards she sings "jibun no utsukushisa mada shiranai (yo)" (you don't know your own beauty yet).

ah remembering all that, the lyrics of BW are so beautiful ;__;

She said Beautiful Toy too? The lyrics are great, but I never noticed that

No, everyone thought that's what she was saying when it first came out. Or something like that... crap, I can't remember but it was something really stupid and I was like the only one who heard "boy" :laugh

Haha, i heard boy too

Great song, that is. I like the lyrics.

I've got a question so I figured I'd ask it.

I was on youtube and I found a video of Hikki with Leah Dizon. Here.

I was wondering are there any full versions of this around and with subs?

The expression on Hikki's face when Leah surprised her was PRICELESS!! XDD That was funny! lol

lol *bangs head* not me :P

Crap, I think I've seen it with subs (cuz I remember bits and pieces of it) but I can't seem to find it now. If I find it I'll post it though. That's such a funny interview :lmfao

THAT's the short hair Utada should have, she looked pretty there =D~

I need for Hikki and Leah to make a collabo srsly. :cry Kiss&Cry was pratically dedicated to her. :lmfao Ugh, I hope after her english stuff is through, she'll collabo with her or any other artist. :heart

How exactly would Hikki benefit from that? :laugh

Hikki doesn't need a benefit, she's already popular as it is. She'd be doing a kindness for poor Leah. :heart

I don't think Hikki needs Leah to drag her down... her recent album was a MESS. :laugh I feel bad for her!

Hm, do you really think it'd drag her down? Maybe it'd work in reverse and give Leah a lot more recognition. :P
