[Utada Hikaru] You're not Japanese, and she can tell, in her 36th thread!

[Polyrhythm]

Deep River. Easy. Best song on its album and best hikki song IMO.

[bluegie]

Wow... this question is actually tough, but I think I will rank them as:

1) Deep River
1.5) HEART STATION
2) First Love/DISTANCE (or FINAL DISTANCE)/BLUE

I dun really care about the EPop side.

[KremlinChaos]

These questions are always tough to answer. I'm going to have to go with BLUE. It's one of my favourite songs <3.

[amorphose]

Very difficult question... I can't really choose a favorite...

1) This One (Crying Like A Child), Deep River, First Love
2) Distance, Exodus '04, BLUE, HEART STATION

That's the best I can do. lol

[CHE.R.RY]

Yeah I think I would go with HEART STATION as well .

[Picaflor 7/4]

easily exodus '04. lol i think it was also the first utada single i ever bought, don't remember though.

[Minttulatte]

top 3 favourities? Damn. Well anyway:

1. Addicted To You (up in heaven mix)
2. This Is Love
3. Prisoner Of Love

These are the top 3 at the moment, and Addicted To You is my top favourite song of all time. <3

//Oh it was about a title song, sorry. Then it could be Distance or Deep River because these are the first songs I have heard of Hikki, and they bring back lots of good memories. I also love the other title songs a lot. <3

[Mirai Noah]

Hmm, probably Exodus '04 or This One (Crying Like a Child). Then DEEP RIVER.

[noisy_harmony]

Best album title track? Hands down, Exodus '04 IMO.

[Zeke.]

1) Take 5
2) This Is Love
3) BLUE

Pretty easy decision for me.

[Maemi]

Excluding remixes, instrumentals, english songs, Hikki has only about 60 songs ^^

btw I like this picture:

take 5 isn't a title track, nor is this is love.

[primavera♥]

^i think they thought it was top 3 songs *shrugs*

[Picaflor 7/4]

being random since this thread isn't ever going to see hikki news. >>

did i ever mention i got into ayu through utada? a few years ago i was on youtube looking up her song "this is love" and the very first video was ayu's "is this love?" so i clicked on it, and it even had lyrics, and i sort of sung along to it, and ended up liking it more and more, and bam, ayu obsession lol. i wonder if that very video is still up... nope, it's not

[JackieRos]

I was into Hikki since the beginning (well 1999 that is)
Thanks to my uncle, he bought FIRST LOVE and I immediately loved it.
I actually always fell asleep listening to her album.
and he bought me DEEP RIVER for my birthday ehheheh

and then I got into asian music thanks to hikki



to answer Keiichi_JPU's question:

I actually hate all of the album title tracks
but the one that I can take listening to is HEART STATION
and maybe just maybe FIRST LOVE

Well.. remixes and instrumentals don't count, but don't you think English songs should count? Some fans have the idea that her English music is inferior to her Japanse work, but I strongly disagree.

Including her English songs she has about 90, including Precious over a hundred.

Including her new Japanese album coming out in 2014... who knows..

Wow, you've been listening to Hikki since you were a kid!? 1999 is a long time. Did your uncle like Jpop or Japanese things for him to buy you that?

same. i was in a hikki obsession. once i heard of ayu cuz she was supposed to be "rival" lol. so i thought what many other fans seemed to think. . .(various insults on ayu and her career) . . .however little by little i realized i kinda liked ayu songs. which i now love. which are like my life (as far as music goes). hikki started everything for me. i wouldnt have v-kei without her either T.T and Eiko Shimamiya and etc.
so her and ayu sorta equal with eiko a bit under


now. . .to wait for a release

[dreamland2.0]

^That's the same with me!!!
I decided to check Ayu out because I thought she was Hikki's rival!!
lol

My Dad likes Hikki now... he plays concert rip of Utada United when he's driving... lol
