i'm so ready for her album already, bring it on utada!

Brodie Boy · #**322** 7th January 2009, 12:19 PM

Ummm I have her song stuck in my head now >.<.

I'm pretty sure everybody would love and spazz over this song if it were in Japanese.

RikkuK · #**324** 7th January 2009, 02:14 PM

The song good be amazing but it sounds like something's missing. She needs more help with the background vocals like if it was a full chorus or something it's be friggin amazing.

This song is great!!!! really like it..hope her new album follows this direction

When Exodus was released people didn't like it because it was too different
People don't like Come Back To Me because it's too generic

Make up your minds >.>

U-GO-BOY · #**328** 7th January 2009, 04:56 PM

^ I like Exodus but don't like CBTM xD

Temari_2 · #**329** 7th January 2009, 05:21 PM

Come Back To Me is a great song, I love it. This song has me pumped for her album.

kawaii otaku · #**330** 7th January 2009, 05:45 PM

yeah i love Come Back To Me and i liked the entire Exodus album

i went around in school today and played Eat you Up and Come Back To Me fr a total of 15 people so far

3 people were undecided as to which song they preferred.
2 people preferred Eat You Up
10 people liked (and most LOVED) Come Back To Me

GRACE · #**331** 7th January 2009, 06:19 PM

I knew Come Back to Me would sound generic when the title came out, but I didn't expect I'd like it so much <3

Good job Hikki, you've made me love you again~~

Mirai Noah · #**332** 7th January 2009, 06:43 PM

I like the preview. Reminds me of old school Hikki a bit.

Re:★ · #**333** 7th January 2009, 07:10 PM

Come Back to Me sounds like a generic Stargate production, sry2say. Utada justs sounds... wrong in English. Weird.

nanomi · #**334** 7th January 2009, 07:14 PM

I really liked the song....Hikki's voice sounded really cool. XD It's perfect for radio play because of the repetitiveness of it (it gets stuck in your head easily

)...! I'm excited for the official release now! ^__^~

kang daesung · #**335** 7th January 2009, 07:15 PM

It's exactly what I expected, and I love it!!

Amrai-chan · #**336** 7th January 2009, 07:30 PM

I like it!

It does remind me of old school Hikki like others have said.

Agreed. I seriously hate this "music elitist" attitude Americans who ONLY listen to J-Pop seem to have. It's like, to them, anything in English = horrible music taste. Get over yourselves, and give REAL reasons as to why you might not like the song.

Another thing, I really don't get why people think she has to be "OMG deep" 100% of the time. Uh, she's human like the rest of us, and I'm pretty sure all of us aren't deep all the time. So neither is she.

Aint that the truth. Thank you for saying what I was thinking.

I just luv the fact that some are still comparing her japanese stuff to her American stuff.

It just make me question how long they have been a Utada Hikaru fan...like for real.

EMI is her publisher and Island is her record company. I think Island is her management team in the states. Anyway, All her Exodus songs have EMI as the main publisher on it. Under Utada/writer, none of the titles have the song title Come Back To Me. So either the song hasn't been registered as Utada as the performer if someone else wrote it or it hasn't been registered at all. That's weird since music companies like to make sure who's going to get how much royalties for what before the song is actually released.

Also remember how a while ago there was a song called Apples and Cinnamon (I think so). It's not there anymore. What happened to it?

Beauty4123 · #**340** 7th January 2009, 09:58 PM

i'd love the song both ways, whether it was in english or japanese

and about the generic thing, it's not like every other song in the US charts right now is 100% original or different, anyway. i personally think people can relate to the lyrics of the song more, because it's about a relationship. if people can relate to the song, i would think they'd end up loving it too.

btw, i'm sending this song to my friend tonight, and she listens to everything BUT asian music

so i'll see how she likes it.

and good job doing the same to your friends, kawaii otaku
