[Utada Hikaru] ✿ New single! Sakura Nagashi ✿ the 47th thread

[Klauser_Bateson]

I remember Kairo, Passion, and Keep Tryin' being my most played songs when Ultra Blue came out.

I love that album. Such a solid release, all the songs are great IMO (except Nichiyou no Asa, still hate that song to this day ).

[Delicious n Bold]

I'm forcing myself to listen to Wings
At least it goes somewhere, unlike kairo.
I don't remember wings being so sweet actually. Hmmm
the rest of the album's still better

[CoriKaru]

Nichiyo No Asa is the only song I wasn't able to make myself like. From the beginning I've thought the song was so weak, frail and bad.

I was shocked to hear Utada say it was her favorite from the Album. Ew.

I do like the "Aaaahaaaahaaaah babies crying" pre-chorus bits that pop up twice with Utada sounding so dead and creepy in the background "......christmas morning.....".

But yeah. No, Utada. Not even for you could I make myself like this song. No matter the amount of nostalgia that now comes with it.

I think Kairo is meant to be a song that doesn't build up that much. It's like a long interlude. :3

[emi♡]

Honestly, Kairo isn't a song I listen to.

But it's just so different from so many things...everywhere. And the lyrics...and the images she creates with it and the music.

It's like looking at a painting.

[CoriKaru]

I would say that "Kairo" most definitely does build to a deafening crescendo and her adlibs toward the end and all of the complex layering are to die for.

I love the smooth up and down sway through the entire song to the end. It's like an entire song full of nothing but the best part instead of listening to a song to get to the best part that only lasts in short bursts only once or twice.

I really really like the song Blue ! One of my favorite songs of her ^^ The album Blue is pretty good !

[Delicious n Bold]

Does this mean that I should use my high end headphones and put effort into listening to Kairo?

[Minttulatte]

^Definitely.

I wonder what Take 5 would sound like if you were immersed in a room of surround sound stereos and you had the HEART STATION CD.

[Delicious n Bold]

^ Better than most things

[ahtka-chan]

Be My Last is my favorite song from her entire discography.

WINGS and Kairo are also amaaaaaazing!

Making Love... it's okay, I don't hate it but I can't remember the last time I listened to it.

From ULTRA BLUE I only dislike This is Love.

OMG WHAT IS WRONG WITH YOU!!?!? Lol.
One of the HIGHLIGHTS of that album!! So good!!

But Take 5 is the clear winner. I used to get seriously lost in that song, practically transported to another world when I would listen after having a smoke!

[CoriKaru]

"This Is Love" is one of her best Songs and could have been more than just a Digital Single, but then again a lot of her Album Tracks could be Singles considering she puts equal effort into all of her songs and spends so much time making her Albums whole.

Like what if she has been making an Album this whole hiatus in secret and is just gonna drop it all on us at once with no promotion or Singles?

I would strip naked and hand my body over to her to slay.

[emi♡]

This is Love was my first underrated ultra blue song lol That song is gorgeous.

The notes and phrases, things she does. Beautiful.

Heavenly.

Oh, This Is Love is one of those songs that has always been close to my heart. I love everything about this song. It's not a cute pop song about love but a deep, mature pop song about love and I love those. ♥

Why do I get the feeling these conversations are again going in a circle? :3 Not that I mind, it's good that this thread still is alive.
