From the artists you named and that I listen to:
The best new Utada Hikaru songs for me are:
-Flavor of Life -Ballad Version-
-Prisoner of Love
-Fight the Blues
-Stay Gold
-Take 5
the whole HEART STATION album, she hasnīt released anything new really apart from that. Oh, and
-Eternally -drama mix-, thatīs new. Just different vocal from the original.
From Ayu:
-Talkin 2ī myself
-fated
-Mirrorcle World
-decision
-Life
-Who... (10th Anniversary version)
And from GUILTY album the most oustanding tracks in my opinion are:
-Together When... (DONīT MISS THIS!)
-Marionette
-(donīt) leave me alone
-GUILTY
And stay tunned for her new release "Days/GREEN"
Also, for other artists that are a must hear this year, I would recommend the following songs:
-Everything that Namie Amuro put out this year is amazing: especially the 60s70s80s singles (NEW LOOK, ROCK STEADY and WHAT A FEELING) and Do Me More. Sexy Girl is cool too. Her PLAY album is amazing, one of the best of 2007, and the best in her career, I think.
-Koda Kumiīs Kingdom is something you should hear, specially for BUT, FREAKY,etc. This year, her best material is the TABOO single, but in her recent MOON single thereīs some good stuff too, specially Lady Go!
-GIRL NEXT DOOR is a new avex group that have a very different and techno-pop sound to it. They have only released two singles: drive away and Guuzen no Kakuritsu, and both managed to reach the 3rd position in Oricon and are amazing. I higly recommend.
-Anna Tsuchiyaīs "Crazy World" is very good too,
-And so is MICA 3 CHU single "I DONīT KNOW"
-ayaka is full of blast lately. Her new album "Sing to the Sky" is amazing, and so are her latest singles: specially CLAP & LOVE/Why.
-Miliyah Kato has put out very interesting stuff this year: I would recommend "19 memories" and "SAYONARA Baby".
-BoA has put out cool things too, LOSE YOUR MIND is quite a good single (avoid Vivid if you donīt want sugar overdose) and you shouldnīt miss Eat You Up, her english debut.
-Crystal Kay has released very good singles and a new album: Color Change!. Her new singles are quite good, specially Namida No Saki Ni is amazing, and donīt miss Suki, the B-Side of her single ONE.
-And, this year is the year of collaborations: They have been quite outstanding and very well done; specially BLACK DIAMOND by Namie Amuro and DOUBLE, you should not miss that. Koda Kumi and Fergie made one in June, it is found in her MOON single and itīs called That Ainīt Cool, and itīs quite nice.
Hope it helps, it was long xDDD
