Yea...I figured as much. The last time she updated was to tell us about her winning a VMAJ award I believe.
Also, if u check out her wiki.theppn page, it shows that A&C is going to release sometime in August...but we know that might be fake. Trollers!

Japanese thought she's married, and her fashion sense was dumb (even now LOL). Anywayz, to summarize the failure of Passion:
i) The song is weird according to the Japanese (dark lyric with happy beats)
ii) Her image
iii) Declined sales

Funny. I never thought people were into Hikki's image in the first place(fashion-wise I mean).
I guess that explains why they hated her image tho.

The world isn't KINGDUM HARTS HIKKI! XD

As for no. 5. Yes, sometimes Japanese artists DO release recut singles. e.g., Ayu's kanariya, Fly high, AUDIENCE, and Daybreak; Ai-chan's 680 yen, kuu's HOT STUFF, hikki's First Love, FINAL DISTANCE (just a remix of DISTANCE anywayz). So it's not weird to see PoL as a recut.

That remines me, Ayu was the only one who reached #1 with her recut. Is there a list of the top-selling recuts? I know FL sold 800K copies which leads me to believe she might be at the top. =/
