[Utada Hikaru] ♥Passion♥ The 22nd Thread of Utada Hikaru

[omably]

<--- I seriously feeling like doing this to someone I'm THAT BORED! PLEASE HIKKI! PLEASE!!! ANNOUNCE SOMETHING!!!!!~

On the other hand, this is giving me some time to collect her discography! ^ ^

[Keiichi_JPU]

I might understand the possible meaning of "Ten" and "Sen".
I was listening to her DEEP RIVER album yesterday, and the title song actually tells about Ten and Sen! It caught me off-guard, lol.

This is the fist verse and my -probably crappy- translation:

Ten to ten wo tsunagu you ni
Sen wo egaku yubi ga nazoru no wa
Watashi no kita michi soretomo ikisaki

As it connect the points together,
the finger, by drawing a line, traces
the road I came from, or my destination.

Ten (dot) = The book with a self-written essay about her marriage, divorce and writing music. In short: it's about her personal life.
Sen (line) = The book with all her blog-posts collected together, as well as photographs.

So maybe she means that "Ten", the story about her life, consists of certain points. These probably include: debut, marriage, divorce.
And "Sen" might be the line that connects it all with her constant stream of blog posts and pictures.

When I first saw the title Sen, it did remind me about Deep River.

I think Ten will be more interesting somehow... except I dunno Japanese. It's useless to buy those books if I can't read them..

[AyUta]

^ It instantly reminded me of DEEP RIVER also.

[bluegie]

^off topic, but omg I didn't notice you as AyuUta... .. Whenever I see kuu's face I was horrified and didn't really check who was using that as the profile picture.. LOL.

(PS: yeah!! finally H is gone and July 1st Initiate... so sick of see the H logo for the past few months)

[Luv ~Venus~]

^ Happy for u.

Oh wow. Thankies for that interesting theory Keiichi. I would've never guessed it might be connected to DR. I haven't listened to that song lately. I really hope that she'll publish an english version or something. I wanna read it.

[Keiichi_JPU]

^ I hadn't been listening to Deep River either, so when I heard her say it I was like WAIT WUT DID SHE JUST SAY?! xD

And I REALLY hope she'll publish it in English but I doubt it.. I'll still buy the books though because I'll be studying Japanese next year so soon I'll be able to understand... soon... *lurks in the dark*

[kawaii otaku]

I immediately thought of DEEP RIVER and i only listened to the song once, two years ago. 0___0

[Yum!Fruit_Salad!]

^ Great memory

I don't think where'll be an English version of the book but I'm pretty sure some generous Hikki fan who knows Japanese will share the details.

[Sundae]

It would make sense that Ten and Sen remind you of Deep River since that is why they chose those book titles from.

Anyway
NEW US SINGLE!!! All right!
