I agree, DEEP RIVER is hikki's best album and one of the most enjoyable and good music album on earth!

For me I also liked UB more than HS.
UB has really strong songs (like Passion, Be My Last, kairo, This Is Love, COLORS, Keep Tryin' etc.)
It's a really complicated album and that's what make is so special and easy to like for me.
I loved it that hikki went the complicated way and was a bit sad that she didn't get it into HS.
HS is so public friendly that after the first listen omgness to this album I wasn't listening to most of it afterwards.
From time to time I like listening to one of the songs but except for the good single songs I don't really listen to the album tracks (and HS/SG songs). I don't know what happened but maybe because it's too public friendly the ethereal pop style in just became really generic.
If it pops up in shuffle (when I shuffle or not selecting songs) I won't pull next but I'm not paying attension to the song.

I think bringing namie here is very ridiculous and comparing BF and HS is more ridiculous. BF has songs on it and quality songs so if namie succeed with it it's really good for her even if it's a compilation (though I thought that there are some lack of songs but it doesn't matter).
