[Utada Hikaru] Utada's Burning it Up Like a Gay Parade in Her 31st Thread! - Page 11

I don't get why everyone's getting so bent out of shape at the argument.

There was been way worse fighting here in the past. We're just discussing how we feel.

@Rogue: no one was going to bash xiaou, or you for agreeing with her...so...your comment kind of befuddles me. Say what you're going to say.

@xiaou: I miss you, post more. AHS needs you <3

@AyUta: I know! We seriously need one of those shows...why don't we have any? It would be awesome to have our artists doing live performances all the time for television...But it might start to get repetitive...

I wonder why America doesn't have those music shows... That would be awesome. America needs to take some modern Japanese culture leasons lol

We used to have them. We had shows like Soul Train, AmericanBandstand, Pepsi Smash and some others, but for the same reason MTV, VH1, and BET have started to move away from music shows they just don't work anymore. They're boring. American Idol works but that's like a reality tv show mixed with a music show.

Besides musicians here don't need tv to promote anymore. The radio works well on the go. Downloading the song on the internet and watch the music video on the internet. That system works well for the current musicians already in the spotlight but makes it harder for the newer ones to gain attention.

Soul Train ftw. I miss music shows. The current method works well for some though. It's harder to get noticed now which sucks...

@emiko; yah, you're right, and you're kind to point this out to me, thank you ^^;
It's just.. Gah, no one is ever going to feel exactly the same about Utada and her behaviour, between us fans I think, but it's just too bad that people get worked up over the fact that she's sick and that we don't hear about her.
Myself, I have this "chill" attitude, like, it's not the end of the world and everything will be alright..
I understand the fans that are getting worked up, I really, do, but then came xiaou-xijiang, and her words are just.. perfect! XD
That's kind of what I wnated to say ^^;
Thank you for comforting me ^^

Regardless of everything else, I am rather surprised at the lack of any Evangelion/Utada news or a leak of some sort of anything. Utada isn't needed for this. I was thinking that maybe they were waiting for Utada to recover, if she hasn't, to announce the Single so that she could promote it but I don't think Utada would mind being out of commission and not having to go on television. Wouldn't be the first time. Not to mention her songs can sell themselves. Maybe the song isn't being released as a Single at all. Maybe she isn't doing the song and never was doing the song. I'm befuddled as to what they're planning.

If Utada is doing the song I hope she doesn't flake out on a proper Music Video again because she "wants the song to belong to the Evangelion franchise and doesn't want to take away or distract from the purpose of the song." Kind of too late to do that anyway when your name is Utada Hikaru and your voice is all over a song for ANYTHING.

I've heard "Beautiful World" a quadruple billion times. Have not seen that Evangelion movie not once. Utada POWNT!

^I dont even know what Evangelion is....lol....except that Beautiful World was its theme song....

MTV should just be renamed TV xD I mean, there is NO music no that channel, srsly XD

^ A long time there usd to be. When I lived in New York, pretty much as soon as I was home, TRL was on the TV. So sad what crappy 'reality' shows have done.

In spoiler since I don't know if it's ok to say...

Spoiler:

It's a terribly popular anime series (Neon Genesis Evangelion being the full name). I mean terribly in the best way <3! It's waaaay more deep than what you'd think from the plot description.

mcluva420 · #10 17th June 2009, 03:56 AM

oh em gee, i hate reality shows, unless theyre funny or smthin
pretty much the only "music" shows are.. talk shows, awards shows, countdowns, and some contest shows

Keiichi_JPU · #11 18th June 2009, 07:48 PM

Neon Genesis Evengelion is one of the best anime series I've ever seen, you really should watch it!

The movie is airing exclusively at my local theater sometime this month, I'm definitely gonna see it! Beautiful World in cinema

AND one of my favorite anime ever!! So good

"Utada’s Evangelion 2.0 Theme Song Available 6/27?

According to Japan’s MORA downloading service website, Utada’s as-yet untitled theme song for the upcoming Evangelion 2.0 film will be unveiled on Saturday, June 27th. There are no details, but with the film itself being released on the 27th, it seems logical that radio airplay and mobile/PC downloads would begin on that date. No word yet on a physical release. Credit goes to kita-san."

@cori: wonderful news, thank you

Sundae · #14 18th June 2009, 09:05 PM

I've waited for so long I'm not even excited now that I have news! Que Sera, Sera is my motto concerning Utada.

AyUta · #15 18th June 2009, 09:56 PM

Finally. Can't wait for it.

Beauty4123 · #16 18th June 2009, 11:46 PM

guess we won't get a single in july then, lol. why must hikki make us wait so long? i really hope this song is better than "beautiful world".

AyUta · #17 19th June 2009, 12:44 AM

^ I hope so too Lisa. For the long time we have to wait.

america is like the very opposite of japan. they don't release singles to the public (in stores), and you can't just walk into a store and see a whole selection of music for an artist. maybe 2 or so albums but thats about it. We imo need atleast one good hearty music show that dedicated to music. Mtv isn't even MTV anymore. its all dumb ass shows like ANTM. So in other words its basically just TV.

mcluva420 · #19 19th June 2009, 05:09 AM

^The Grammys

I walked in a store and saw a whole selection of music from an artist~ lik.. 5 smallish rows of CDs?

Polyrhythm · #20 19th June 2009, 06:16 AM

^I dont watch the grammys....its kinda sad. Im so out of touch with American music....the only time I remember watching the grammys was when mariah carey sang we belong together during it. That was 2005 or 2006? cant remember. That song was crazy back then.
