I just can't get over how Elton John was talking about her at the time ) ....It's sad that no one else recognized her talent.

Geeeeeeeeeeeeeeez if Utada had had a good marketing team she would have dominated in the States. Hopefully now that EMI will handle her English-language releases she'll have more success. I feel like they do an AMAZING job promoting her in Japan (her face is everywhere when she has a new release), so they probably would do an equally amazing job in the US.

I really hope she doesn't take longer than a year, because I've already burned out the new songs on Complete Singles Collection Vol 2. I'm now relying on Namie to get me through.

It's even more frustrating because I felt like she was getting back to the R&B/Rock roots that was First Love/Distance/Deep River. Not that I don't like her techno-y stuff, but she belts more when she does r&b and I love it haha.

As for that clip, amorphose (sorry I don't know your real name, lol) the person that posted it took it down, but I will try my hardest to find it! (Also because I love it myself lol)
