[Utada Hikaru] STOP TALKING in hikki's 37th thread!!

[primavera♥]

Omg omg!!!!!! Yay yay yay. Please no r&b. No no r&b!!!! I really hope she becomes really deep and poetic with this one. I miss that.

God what am I saying. I'm just happy she's releasing something. That's she being dedicated to her music.

But I still wonder what genre. I mean there's a lot hikki really just hasn't explored. She should branch out.

I'm waaay happy. Je suis contente maintenant. I could not be more excited.

Noo I don't have it! It's someone I'm talking to on last.fm

It's a fashion magazine, but it's not a new shoot, it feautures a poster from the This Is The One shoot.

But there's an interview in it and she's recording a new album!!

And yeah u.blog is slacking!

[AyUta]

new album...?

am i hearing right?

[amorphose]

It almost seems too good to be true! Do you think you could get the name of the magazine from him? So we could make sure it's legit and stuff~?

And if it's using pictures from This Is The One, that begs the question, is this an English or Japanese album? If it were a Japanese album, you think she'd be talking about a new single and not a new album already, but it also seems highly unlikely she'd do another English album unless she like really enjoyed In The Flesh or something. xD Ahhh~ I'm just starved for info and this is really exciting!

[AyUta]

You know...it better NOT be an English album....

[amorphose]

I don't care what language it's in... I just hope she keeps to her word and "does something weird." Cause that's what she said she wanted to do after TiTO. When I hear Utada say she's gonna do "something weird," I just think anything from DEEP RIVER to ULTRA BLUE (or something as equally experimental and epic.)

So, to me, it doesn't really matter as long as we don't get TiTO or HEART STATION all over again! I think I'd prefer a Japanese album this time around though. Just cause.

[FuNsTyLe]

A new album... Really? o_O
No.. It can't be. I have to pinch my arm every day now.... If this is happening, it's wonderful! Hopefully a Japanese one (and most probably too).
Yay! Yay yay yay!

[Beauty4123]

i leave this thread for like...2 days. and am i hearing right? NEW ALBUM?! (japanese album, i assume. and i hope!)

Yay! Now we're one for one (thanks for finding Polyrhythm for me)

And YAYYYY for new album! Woot! It's about time for some action from Hikki....

[Keiichi_JPU]

Oh, wait, I think its called Smart, but it's the Osaka version I think (really, I don't buy many magazines but my wife says there is a difference between them), I'll try and scan the cover later. Its not a big picture of Utada, the main pic is of some girls in "loli" clothes but it has a smaller picture of Hikki with love heart around her saying 'poster inside'.

Let the hunt for Smart Osaka begin!!

[jean-baptiste]

woohoo we waited long enoguh. xD

[Maemi]

I hope it's true

[Nackar_91]

I never get all this dislike for Heart Station. Yes, I guess it was just like Ultra Blue, but that was a phenomenal album so it just means more good music, am I right? >.>

Or is it that people dislike the fact it contained so many single tracks? I wonder how many of the people that complain about that have actually BOUGHT all of the singles...

I love heart station......however. It will never compare to ultra blue. The cconcept, the poetry, the pure depth, the surrealness. Its so intellectual

In comparison. HS is just a dumbed down version of it without enough complexity. The only song on that albun that could fit UB is teiku 5

--------

Why can't hikki do rock. And make it weird like she wants.
Anything weird though. HS and TITO are normal and simpleton.
Hikki + weird = win

[Beauty4123]

i liked HEART STATION so much better than ULTRA BLUE. but i think DEEP RIVER beats out those two albums, lol.

[Andrenekoi]

^Well, u say UB is art and complex, IMO it's just a mess of an album xD a compilation of awesome tracks that don't communicate with each other... I see no concept on the album as a whole

IMO HS it's Hikki first complete album... the first one that works as a whole and not as a bunch of random (awesome) tracks

[roanmy]

New album before any singles? Hmm...

Its like ayus RnRC. No it does not sound like it flows but imo it flows quite fine. It the way where each song is too showcased. Its waaay beautiful. Where somewhere hikki has created a magical continuous world.

HS is like sitting in the studio with hikki while she makes some album. Easy to figure out. Its like something for chilling in japan.

Why should I go on. Clearly I'm not understandable and the opinion is not shared. Contrasting UB and HS is like EAP and Emily D.

still I hope for strange magic and no more kiddy songs for goodness sakes.

Please be weird and out there hikki. If its in her heart hopefully
