I like that cover a lot, actually. It's simple.

I'm excited to hear about Hikki's second English album, too. I didn't know if she'd bother with that again after Exodus tanked--whoever said that there's two distinct Hikki's--Utada in the US and Utada Hikaru in JP--was quite right: they're the same woman, but as artists and styles they're totally different.

Happy to hear about her new stuff coming out =D I'm looking forward to it.

beautiful world/kiss & cry is one of her bests after DEEP RIVER i can say...

as for the cover she could do better or the art creative director can do better...as least show her face?

I have to agree with Cloud_Honey, I thought the Beautiful World/Kiss & Cry single sucked.

To me hikki is an artist who gets better at each release:

CUBIC U: Horrid crap

FIRST LOVE: annoying trash

DISTANCE: Good to average album

DEEP RIVER: Very good album

ULTRA BLUE: Excellent album

I hope the next one will be as good as ULTRA BLUE

^i totally agree with you
her music at the start was not my style - but i respected her for being able to write and compose at a young age
but she's just gotten better and better with each album<3

My most fav albums of hikki are Distance and Deep River though ironically my most fav song by her is Passion which is on ULTRA BLUE but I loved Distance and Deep River more as whole albums... then ULTRA BLUE and then First Love ^-^".

Flavor of Life is a nice song
Beautiful World amazing!!
Kiss & Cry - really good

The only one I didn't like (and can't like) is boku wa kuma mainly because it's a children songs so it's hard for me to connect to it, I wonder what will she do with it in the new album.

The radio rip of Stay Gold has been uploaded by Beauty4123 in the Asian Media Downloads forum.

Beautiful World/Kiss & Cry was an awesome 2007 single. Hikki created a nice blend of songs, including a really snazzy cover song. I didn't like FoL that much; it's a nice song, but it's a bit overrated, in my opinion.

It was cute that Hikki did a song for the kids.
