I think its a good step for Ayumi to use English, and while none
of us can be sure what her motive in doind so was, we can
recognize it a change in her music...

Ayumi's style is evolving, I think those of us who've heard
RAINBOW can see that - and perhaps this english is a part of this
evolution. I think this step in a new direction is what really sets
Ayumi apart from Hikaru Utada! Utada keeps releasing the SAME
OLD stuff, always the same basic formal for a song "Generic R&B
Beat + Hikki = More Songs" X.x; Listen to 'Deep River', every
track sounds like its only a little different from the last, and the
album is obviously way too similar to 'Distance'.

People loved 'Deep River' and hail it as the 'best' album of the
year [that or 'I am..']. Well, Ayumi has just reset the standard
with RAINBOW - and if Hikaru wants to keep up with Ayumi, she'll
have to do something new as apposed to rehashing her old
style into new songs xD




Have a Happy Day!
