Thread a la Utada ~the 7th Flavor~ - Page 7

Hmm...last time I checked, Do You reached #3 on the itunes charts! Congrats to Ne-Yo and Utada!

JimmyKoria · #**122** 26th November 2007, 04:22 AM

Her vocals seem fine in the Ne-yo song? Maybe I'm going deaf?

Im pretty much just waiting for anything good from Japan because the music I've heard lately has been really crummy. Alls I can see to look forward to is The Brilliant Green's new album. Utada has kind of dissapointed me this year, same with Hamasaki.

Luv ~Venus~ · #**123** 26th November 2007, 04:43 AM

Yea...this year was sort of a bore.....I pissed off by all of the BEST release and stuff. Hikki stuff really didn't disappoint me this year. Kiss&Cry has given me faith that she'll have more R&B tracks on her upcoming Japanese album. I overdid it with Flavor of Life (both versions) and I don't listen to it as much now. The same goes for Namie's stuff too. I really overdid it with Baby Don't Cry! lol I really hadn't listened to any solo male artist...but then again I really don't listen to solo male artist! This was really big for boybands which I am happy for that! (Go! UVER and AKFG!)

Omg are you serious?! She finished it? I think this'll be the first time she's taken less than a year to finish an album.

Hmmm, whatever did happen to "Stay Gold"? :|

Meat Pao · #**131** 5th December 2007, 04:03 PM

OMG LOLOLOLOL That was fast. NO! HIKKI MUST RELEASE IT THIS YEAR (What's up with this year? all the artists are releasing thier album next year >_>)

FREE?!?!?!?!?!? OMG I WANT

**ayumisrael** · #**135** 5th December 2007, 09:48 PM

Yay! a new Japanese album!! But if they already finished it why should they wait years to release it? I hope it means it will be released on February or March tops XD.

Hikki isn't done with the album yet....she has like three more songs to do before its complete. She said that her last three songs for her albums are usually the hardest to complete.

I'm expecting the album to be released in March or April but looking at Hikki's albums release date, we might get the album in late March. As for Stay Gold, it's looking like it's going to be release digitally only!

Why yes it did, thank you! But wth? Is that all they're doing for her 10th anniversary? Come on, she not just some J-Pop idol, this is Utada Hikaru we're talking about! About the album, I'm feeling a late March-early April release with "Stay Gold" released a month before digitally like Shan said in February or something. But then again, she might do another "Kiss & Cry" on us. Who knows? Omg yay! We'll finally hear "Stay Gold" in HQ soon! Gooo Hikki!

Impracticable · #**138** 6th December 2007, 12:00 AM

YAAAA HIKKI!

So wait, the 45 Second clip of "Stay Gold" Will be available friday? 0_0?

i thought about that, but it might not be that good of an idea, since her album's coming out soon. so unless she'd wanna do a rush thing like kuu is, i'd rather her just leave it as a digital single and then release her album

DeepRiver · #**140** 6th December 2007, 02:05 PM

Finally a new Single!

Here is the Thread ~> http://www.ahsforum.com/forum/showth...17#post1251917
