A-greed

It's a solid song, and she needs something like this to make a splash. I just hope her splash makes her perform here... hm, what am I saying? She has to perform... right? *hopes*

Hahaha it would be interesting if either of the cases were true!

Does anyone know if she has any performances lined up for this song?

I like to look at "Come Back To Me" as being the "Easy Breezy" of EXODUS (as they are both lead singles from the album.) It seems that everyone's general complaint with CBTM is that it's too generic. I agree on that point; as it is very generic, but I still think it's a very good, solid song! Anyway, I guess what I'm trying to say is look at what followed on the rest of EXODUS, after Easy Breezy, and how vastly different it was from that song.

Hikki is unpredictable. The new English album could be as vastly different from Come Back To Me as Easy Breezy is from EXODUS. No need to get panties in a bunch yet, even if you hate the song!
I get what you're saying.

However, it's just that there is a very good chance that, that won't happen. That theyre going to be "smarter" about things this time...and go with a specific style.

Maybe that's giving them too much credit lol I hope you're right though.


And...the tag's are great. "obsessed person's thread" Makes sense to me.

Hmm... I wonder how they're gonna do it considering it's being released here and in Japan. I didn't pay much attention to the EXODUS release cause I wasn't into her at the time, so I don't know.

I know the flopped on it here, so maybe they'll do more promoting this time?

^She performed Exodus songs only 5 times I believe.

YMMWTBAM 2 times, Devil Inside 2 times, and Kremlin Dusk once.

Wow I never even knew that. The word "Kremlin" makes me think of a cross b/w Krillin form DBZ and a gremlin

I hope she performs a good amount of songs from this album

I hope she performs in NYC because then I will definitely be there. BoA's performance at MTV studios was packed, imagine Hikki D: I might just have to crawl through some legs, I'm relatively small.

When she was promoting Exodus, she had a private event. That wasn't really good promotion for her.

Yea I had about that. Though some of the people who went said it was pretty good. I guess we'll see. Everything's clouded in mystery lol. She's in NY now right? If only she was staying in some hotel that everyone knew about like when Ayu went to Paris. Then I could go harass Hikki

But I feel like if I saw her on the street I'd just be "Hey, I like your music. Pretty cool." While inside I'm exploding. Or maybe I'd fainted and be speechless... hm.

I bet if Hikki met American fans she would be super nice *w*;
And take a few pictures with them and stuff!

-can't see Hikki being mean-

I always saw Ayu as being a Diva, but she was really nice to her Chinese fans D:

Exodus wasn't very comercial... and people didn't get the whole Easy Breezy idea
But it can be different with this album... it looks like she wanna be famous now xD

Can't see Hikki being mean either. Unless you get too close to Kuma-chang.

Yea I'm acutually watching it quite closely

I can see her as the very down to earth type. The hard part is waiting to see what IDJ is gonna do with her promotion and everything.

Hopefully the promotion will be better this time around. Mainstream music in America is moving toward an electro-pop direction, though, so her style might just fit in perfectly.
