Oh it's not the fact that she can't sing or speak English but more just comical song writing skills (or lack of).

Not a fan!

First Love makes me cry every single time. It gets annoying at last, but I can't help it. *sniff*

i know i posted on a thread about her a few days ago, but here goes again

i like her music, and i liked her until i saw the Sakura Drops music video. she has no emotion in her face during it, which kind of creeps me out

I personally love the song and the video. The reason she appears to have no emotion because that song is about her being depressed and bored with everything. So she is feeling melancholy, she expresses that much at least.

Her Japanese lyrics are annoying enough but when she attempts it in English it is just painful.

Your easy breezy & I'm Japanesey.

& then hearing her rap about her new microphone.

imagine hearing that everywhere you went for 4 months

lol Yea... Her English is fine though. I saw a few clips of her speaking on CNN and getting offended because the Interviewer related her to Britney Spears and Christina Aguilera. I had to laugh! I like a few songs on Exodus (for the music! not the lyrics.."Tippy Toe" is just wrong) but for the most part I can't stand vibrato and she pushes that to the max! Whether its her ignored shyness or just her style...who knows~ ^^p

I love Hikki I'm her biggest ( well sorta ) fan here in America. I love Kremlin dusk, passion, animato, easy breezy, letters, deep river, simple and clean, the list goes on and on. She is very talented and I admire her singing skills. Hikki or Hikaru whichever

just for reference...Gendou.com lists Sakura Drops as Sakura's Theme from Naruto. is it?

also, i don't really like that...i mean, she wasn't even looking depressed, she looked like an effing robot or android

I like the Flavor Of Life song, I heard it in the Meteor Garden show (Boys Over Flowers live action t.v. drama) and it makes me cry everytime I listen to because of the show.

for those who are interested Utada is working on a new song. it's still unknown what kind of song it's gonna be and when it will be released.
i'm really curious what her new single is gonna be like..
