Flavor of Life is amazing, I don't understand how that song got eliminated immediately! >.<
The original version of Flavor Of Life totally kills the ballad version, imo. I can understand if people have some connection to it regarding the television show, but it's just so boring to me. I prefer Be My Last to that garbage. Lol.

The Take 5 ending doesn't totally irk me which is surprising since I don't like it when I'm listening to a song and it doesn't finish or fade out all of the way. I guess I just accepted it. I wish it were longer too though, lol.

I hope the english album will do better in the US than EXODUS.

As for the release of the english album in Japan, it will do well, simply cus she's Hikki.

I didn't download the Album, but I was well aware of the abrupt ending of "Teiku 5" before I actually heard it so it didn't catch me off guard, which I regret. I would have liked to have been surprised by it unknowingly.

Though I would have liked the song to go on longer because it's a good song, I'm not mad or anything and I prefer it over the fanmade versions.

I totally hate Flavour Of Life nw. Either version is completely though I remembering loving the ballad version when it first came out. After about 10 listens, I couldn't stomach the song much longer; lost its appeal way too quickly and it bothers me how out of place it is.

I read about Teiku 5's ending. So when it stoppped, I knew why instad of freaking out and downloading a new file.

Yeah seriously if she was anymore covered up with her monotone poses from exodus she'd be a nun. I really wonder what heart station must dress like XD. Lol anyways I really hope she relaxes a bit and is not living in the 50's or something and looks a little more mainstream this time on the cover/booklet

About the piano part in the beginning of Come Back To Me, does anyone else think it sounds familiar from some famous piano song? Hmm...

Utada blogged an english post. There's a picture of the word KUMA drawn into the snow.

Quote:
Well hello, hello!

Is it too late even for a belated belated Happy New Year?

I'm finishing up my new album right now. There's no way it can be released as early as IDJ has announced lol But they are rushing to get this out there for all of you to hear, and that is a very good sign It means the album sounds gooood

I started up a myspace page! (Is "page" the right word?) You can listen to my new single there.

I do plan to start posting messages on myspace soon, start up a dialogue with peeps who have posted messages for me, but that feels premature at the moment. Maybe when I am finished with the album, when, hopefully, we will have managed to generate some sort of response to the music, outside of the internet.

Having said that, I'd like to clarify that this u3music site will remain to be the most personal ("chatty") outlet of my thoughts and feelings.

Yours Truly,

Utada
lol peeps.

lol! Hikki and her hipness. So she thinks it's too early to release the album as well. I hope the song generates enough interest to garner a decent fanbase. I can't wait to see the tracklist and album cover. I know she's gonna lok so cute.

When I read her English message earlier, I found it funny that Utada would laugh after saying the Album probably wouldn't come out when IDJ wanted it to.

I also was a little relieved. The Album definitely needs to be pushed back as I said earlier, even if it's not for the same reasons. Here's hoping Utada gets her way though and IDJ doesn't douche this one up as well. What's the point of rushing something out if no one knows about it. I'm glad they're eager to get it out there and have people listen to it, but first you must let it be known that it actually exists or NO ONE will listen to it.

peeps

i don't care if the album gets pushed back if utada's not ready yet. as long as it means that the songs turn out to be good, then it's worth it.
