I started listening to mink recently and even though she's much lesser known, her vocals and the music she sings can definitely get her in the US market thousand times more easily than Utada Hikaru. Seriously, I played "run to you" sang by mink and asked my brother who was singing it and he didn't think twice before saying it was Whitney Houston. She can really sound like an american singer even though she still has quite some accent.
Also, the Chris Cox remix of Glory of Life is awesome. I wouldn't be impressed if that's actually the remix rocking the dance floors in the US LOL
