Oww, yes that definitely sounds better than my opinion! XD
I'm not really into Hikki as a person, I listen more to her music, so when I read something she said, I'm mostly taking it liturally.. *sighs*
If it's really like this, she's excited about writing music like this, hey, maybe that's not bad news at all
If she, herself is feeling good and enthousiastic about the work she's done until now, that might be a very good sign.
I hope there will be at least something Animato-ish on her new album, though I'm still afraid most of the tracks won't have an Exodus-mark on them..
I don't mean I want a second Exodus, but I think it isn't an album you can listen to once and then, hup take up something else and forget about it, like with most of mainstream music albums.
Take for example Madonna. Her singles are very okay most of times, but her albums aren't really .. The tracks aren't just very memorable..
I just think Exodus is an interesting album because you don't get the music at first time listening. That must also be why Americans didn't approve. Easy-listening dance music should be a good chance for a hit, Come Back To Me might actually be her chance to get more attention than previous time.
But only if, as stated before, proper promotion is done, if they get her ito the right style (PLEASE don't get her Rihanna-ish, dancing with nothing but a bikini and pumps on..)
Something like.. A cute girl, who can be silly and random with her music but who also has her adult side. Some kind of funny/serious mix, that might work out I think.
