^Yeah! It's for the new "Kingdom Hearts" DS Game. I haven't seen it yet, but I really want to for nostalgia purposes going back to when the "Kingdom Hearts II" Commercial was airing. I'd just stop and drop everything and gaze in a trance at the commercial, more for the song than for the visuals, but it was great. What channel did you have it on?

Oh hey! Thanks. You're right, for the most part I just wasn't here for the Summer. Back now though. For better or for worse.
Here's a link to Utada's MSN Interview concerning her "HEART STATION" Album.
It just may be my favorite Interview of hers that she did for "HEART STATION."
Not only does it touch on the whole "Teiku 5" thing, but also the connection between "Fight The Blues" and "BLUE" as speculated earlier in this thread and "Celebration" being the song with the temporary title, "Yakekuso" if people are still confused about that.
Beneath the interview is another MSN Interview just about her Single "HEART STATION/Stay Gold."
Enjoy.
MSN Interview - "HEART STATION"
Also, this is completely separate, but here's a snippet from a fan's review on Utada that I really liked:
"Tracks that stimulate not only the ears, but all the senses and one's psyche are what make Utada Hikaru stand out from other big-name J-pop artists: she has the ability to conjure up great sales and legitimate credibility because of her unmatched music prowess (she does, after all, sing, write, and produce all of her songs on her own using her own tools). When it comes to true artists with such mainstream ubiquity, Utada Hikaru is unmatched. Ayumi Hamasaki, Namie Amuro, and Kumi Koda may have their own respective strengths as the other female high priestesses in the J-pop game, but not one of them have displayed as much sophistication and utterly pure talent as Utada has all these years.
That being said, Utada's more experimental pop leanings may come dangerously close to becoming lounge music or too ambient for consumption (probably inching towards new age-y stuff), but thankfully she's still got some pop chops in her to remain savvy with what the people want. She does, after all, continue to garner big sales numbers (something that can't be stressed enough - she's always one of the highest-selling, if not, the highest-selling female J-pop artist in every calendar year her albums come out): a testament to her ability to find something that connects with the masses. This fact only shows that no one has it better than her in J-pop and in world-wide pop music in general: she's at the point of her growth as an artist that she can do whatever the hell she wants, but still get away with it with flying colors. Many artists from all over the world would definitely want to be in her shoes. What more, she garners all this critical acclaim with such modesty: a bonus in pleasing the Japanese tradition of grace, subtlety, and peacefulness when conducting your manner in public. The only bad thing Utada can do at this point is to abruptly stop making music. Only then will she truly be betraying such an adoring and well-deserved audience. Japan will always be open ears to its most regal of pop princesses."

That aside, how's her music? Is it good?
