Ah... sort of flip-flopping it. Me likes! pirat

I think WatashiNoItami is right. I think there are still people out there who don't know about the elegance of Japanese music. I hate it, but know that Americans sometimes really really HATE listening to things that aren't in their own language. If Hikki made this song or any of her other songs like Dareka No.. then I think it would touch on the people who didn't hear Sanctuary.

And here's a bit... Do you think Hikki's going to use this track for any commercials or advertisement like she did for Stay Gold (shampoo) or Sanctuary (Kingdom Hearts)?

I'm sure it will have some tie-in. If Stargate's helping her out, I'm sure they will find some way to advertise it. Apple Jacks commercial anyone? Haha.

That. Would be SWEET. Let's brainstorm other tie-ins (just for laughs! elephant )

-Apple and Cinnamon Nutri-Grain (I was eating it when I found out!!)
-Possible new Starbucks flavor (yuuuum)

APPLE JACKS SHOULD HAVE Apple and Cinnamon ON THEIR COMMERCIAL! XDD Like how Utada's Kiss&Cry was on the Nissin Cup Noodle commercial~

The title itself makes me think "Apple Jacks" XD
Perhaps she's really going in that direction? It would really boost her sales!

But since when has Apple Jacks had a good commercial? With a good artist? I just don't think the company itself is good enough, do you? Perhaps they are trying to change their style to make their cereal more popular.

About Apples & Cinnamon, it sounds like a really playful song from the title (Can't really make anymore assumptions with it from that).
If she works with Timbaland again it'll have the same funky and experimental beat though, or maybe a lot of bass. That'll be a huge shock to hear Utada's voice from a song like that, hah.
And since she plans on being mainstream with this album it'll bring in a lot more fans, but what'll happen then? I wonder if this album sells extremely well, will she devote more time to America and less on Japan?
Oh well.
Can't wait to hear this~~

Does anyone have predictions about when we're supposed to here this? I mean, right now we're only going off a licensing agreement on a site. Hikki hasn't affirmed anything yet. And it hasn't been a month from her last single.

Will she even do singles this time around or ultra mainstream it with only an album and no singles?

I'd say late-summer would be the earliest, but that would mean she'd be making the album really fast, if she goes with the single route. Of course I'd say winter's more likely. But all we can do is wait.

Other than the fact that she's leaning on producers a little more than usual, and it's actually HAPPENING, this is the first we've heard. But what about the song itself? When will IT come out. I'm sure she'll at least give us a preview. Anyone know when it might come out? Predictions?

Yes, but working with Timbaland was also good. Depending on if you really like Exodus or not (a lot of people in here aren't fond of it), that was a bad choice. Hope they're not too mainstream.

Well, in the past few years the music market's changed a lot. Timbaland's wacky beats got a lot of attention 2006-2007. (Justin Timberlake, Nelly Furtado). Part of Exodus' charting failure was the publicity. I mean we all know Hikki was everywhere when Exodus came out, right? Rolling Eyes So if Exodus were to be released again, I'd think it'd do better.
Working with Stargate is a very good thing, I'm just wondering if Hikki's voice can get some success. She has a very soft and delicate voice compared to most singers, and when she produced some songs for herself, that didn't go too well on some songs in Exodus, so this could be her "Hot hit single". ;D

EH? °A°
Why’s the track gone? Was it a mistake, or did the track never exist? I’m anxious for more news…

Maybe that's just a tentative collaboration ^^
Even if Hikki works on that, it would be kind of an OST. Very Happy

Perhaps Hikki saw all the chatter and found out it was incorrectly stated under her name? But that wouldn't make sense... BMI's website is very official.

Has it been taken back? scratch

I must go think on this...

Whoa! Nice nab from Sano, and before U.BLOG too!! Very Happy

Now, why in the world would she switch to Sony? EMI and Sony are basic enemies in the business I thought. Of course, I might be wrong. Feel free to correct. But it's an interesting change.

Also, will she continue to go under the name Utada or switch to her Japanese name Utada Hikaru?

Sony is probably just Stargate's music publisher. But even so, musicians often have different music publishers to their record companies, I'm not sure exactly how it works.

And she's still under contract as "Utada" so that's what she'll be on at least this album. Since "Utada Hikaru"'s songs are all listed together with "Utada"'s I guess she has it set up so that "Utada Hikaru" writes all of "Utada"'s songs. God, having two contracts at once is confusing.

I couldn't believe it when I heard that Apple and Cinnamon was going to be one of Hikki's songs! Now if only we had a bit more information about the song, like what it's about (other than the fact that's about apples and cinnamon. Razz )
