Eh? Did you even read my post?

[kaede]

I have a question, maybe someone here can help me
I'm in US now (in Philadelphia) and I wonder in which shop can I find Utada's CDs (Exodus for example)?

[sugarbasil]

^^You can find Exodus in just about any store that sells CDs (Sam Goody, Best Buy, Circuit City, Target, Suncoast, Walmart, ect.). It's usually in the Reggae section.

And I think I'm a little slow (a little???? Haha, try A LOT) on the updates. What's this about Ne-yo and Hikki colaborating in 2007??? Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuggggggg. How did I miss that one!?? Can someone upload that? As much as I love Hikki, I HATE Ne-yo. :/

LOL I saw Exodus in the Reggae section at my local Best Buy too.

The song with Ne-yo is called 'Do you' and was released at the end of 2007 as a digital single in Japan.

[Ayumi27]

Yes, it was a duet remix of Ne-Yo's song "Do You", released exclusivly in Japan as digital single... I don't like it a lot

[AyUta]

I thought the song was rather nice. I didn't think the collaboration would turn out very good, but I liked it.

Erm, I don't know if it's just the area I live in, but I've tried just about every store that carries cds has and could not find Utada anywhere. I once found her at Walmart and Barnes and Noble, but that was when the cd had first come out. I had had to order it offline in the end :/...

[AyUta]

^ I don't think we ever looked in the reggae section though. I was under the impression that she was always under dance, so that's where we usually looked, remember? We should try the reggae section next and maybe she'll come up.

[CHE.R.RY]

^ But I would ask too, and they'd say they didn't have her. Plus, I tried looking in all of the sections except for oldies .

[AyUta]

^ Oh yeah, I forgot about that x_x; Stupid states

Hm...Well, I don't know what to say about that. I live in the Midwest, but I wouldn't think it would be a big deal. My guess is that if they don't have the CD it's because it wasn't selling enough, so they got rid of it. Did you check Best Buy? I KNOW that all the Best Buys in my area still carry it, though, yeah, make SURE to look in the reggae section. I thought it might have been in the international/world section, but it's not. :/ But if you can't even find it there, then I dunno.

And can someone upload the "Do You" song for me? I listened to the preview on Hikki's website (that thing is NOT updated in the least ), and I eek,really didn't like it, but I'd at least like to hear the whole thing. Plus, one of my best friends LOVES Ne-Yo, so I want to show him this. XD


EDIT: okay, well the Best Buy website says they still carry it in stores. Apparently, they also sell HEART STATION as well for only $20. O_O That's pretty cool and damn cheap. It's $30.99 on yesasia! I think I'm going to run over there tonight and pick it up. Oh, nevermind. You have to buy it online. :/

Yeah like I said, I had to order it off the internet in the end cuz I couldn't find it (I looked in all the sections too). I think (like you said) that it just wasn't selling so they stopped carrying it in my area. It sux big time though ...

Ah well, I got it in the end so that's all that matters lol xD! I just hope this time around that Utada gets more promotion and support from her record company.

I found Exodus in the dance section at Borders on the mainland. I didn't think it was too rare.

[Keiichi_JPU]

this is my dream:

Hikki's next English album will be well-promoted and popular enough you can actually buy it LIKE A NORMAL ALBUM in any normal music store in the USA and Europe! And other non-Asia areas of course!

For me, the closest store where they sell Exodus is 2 hours (and 40 euro's worth of public transport) away, and they only sell Exodus there because it's American. I really have to buy all my other j-pop online, there's no other option

(my dream gets very unreal here: maybe Hikki will even become popular enough to have her Japanese albums also sold here like normal CD's! that would be heaven)
