Don't get me wrong, I love her stuff (I have two albums), but I'd like her to make more contributions to her music. I guess some don't care what artists contribute, but I do, and it really bothers me when they don't do much other than sing and dance...

IMO I always feel proud when my favourite singers write their own lyrics or compose, but I don't prioritise it that much, especially with those that can sing very well. That after all is what I would expect out of a
singer.

I find Hitomi's singing great.
I find her underrated sales wise.
