It's a very standard sounding R&B ballad. It's nice, but there's nothing special about it. Although I am glad it's not all electronic sounding like practically every song on Exodus. The last track on that album, which featured a real acoustic guitar, was like a sudden breath of fresh air.

BUT I HATE how Hikki changes what she's all about in her US songs. It's like....so fake. Her Japanese songs have all these domestic, honest feelings about "turn off the TV and look only at me" (hikari) or "when I see my weak face in the mirror, I want to smash it" (keep tryin'). Then her US songs are full of all this superficial, overdone crap like "boy, you're so hot, let's turn this room into a melting pot" or the "I cheated" BS in this song. I know those subjects are popular in US music, but come on. It's not her at all.

Amen

Utada can make beautiful songs with actual meaning in japanese. But this did not happen this time :no There's nothing special about this song. (in other words, booooooooring :P lol)

nothing special..like Cyria said, no impressions of it

I like it
the only song on TITO I like

only decent song in TITO

its okay. its a good song. not amazing. many artists are capable of making a good r&b song.

i used to love it of course in my "hikki is perfection" days. .. but now its worn off.

a more r&b person would love it though im sure. . .but thats not me completely

I don't normally like these mainstream pop songs, but I think Hikki did well :)

I liked this song. I think it's great. It got me the first time I heard it. And how does it compare to GREEN ><

i think it's just okay/good, not amazing.

But that's just because I know that she is so much better.

It's okay, just pretty generic..

an okay song and i like it !

I LOVE this song! I think I could blast it forever and not get tired of it. It's actually one of my favorites from her overall career. :yes

Did not like it at first.

It's nothing special, but I don't hate it.

It's just okay.

But this song is the only (I think so) from Japanese could make up our in local radio station.

nope, i don't like it. I always thought it were really bad lyrics. I don't like songs with lyrics like that, and it don't matter if the song is from a boy or a girl.
