I feel the same towards the song, the verses are good, hikki's voice in the chorus bugs me a bit I think, not the composition.

Here's a light subject: what is your favourite Utada performance ever?
I personally love acoustic music, but I also love intimate performances. So some of my favourites are the internet live, the unplugged concert, or the 20th birthday live. Unlike artists like Ayu who are so glamorous, she just performs in a way that makes her feel comfortable. I really like that (although I like Ayu too). But performances like on Bokura no ongaku are cool too.

I liked the unplugged perfromances I think my favorite from there is (also generally) FINAL DISTANCE. UU2006 wasn't entertaining so much, it was something between simple and glamarous, I liked most of the vocals performances of the songs but I listened to the MP3s more than watching it because it was a bit boring watching hikki going left to right in most of the tour. It wasn't an eye drawer, just ear (in most songs) I prefer if she would do more story-lined stuff and a bit more glam (since she doesn't dance and I don't want her to) but I guess it's not her thing.

Unfortunately, she permitted (and made) HEART STATION =\
There were 4 songs I could really like (and still listen to).
