What got your interest in Utada?

[Sim']

With Hikki, it's a looong & complicaaaated story =/

First, I hated Hikki before even listening to any of her songs.
The articles I read during 2004, when I just discovered Ayumi, didn't really encourage me to discover the artist =/
You know, all the 2001 story about the Distance VS A BEST, the fact they were rival & the competion was really hard between both of them.
I was soo "Ayu is the best, ******* the rest" at that time xDDDD

Then I listened to Sakura drop, and I was like "aww x.x"
I believe it's not her best song, but still I kept the song in my mind, until the huge hit came...
You Make Me Want To Be A Man!

YES! I LOVED UTADA before Hikki!
I LOVED Hikki for UTADA's style, for the english songs first!
They were "WOW *0*" to me, the instrumental of YMMWTBAM is still my favourite =3
Then Be My Last came and I really got into the japanese side of Hikki!
It's after Be My Last that I started to download her older songs

So yeah, discovered in 2004, I became a "Hikki fan" after being a "UTADA fan" early '05 =)
Now, Hikki is my 2nd BEST artist EVER, after Ayu and before Kuu~chan =33
UTADA UNITED! TOUR was just... AWESOME *0*
I LOVED the UTADA medley part, Devil Inside~You Make Me Want To Be A Man ROXXXXXXX everything!
Passion is soooo good as an opening, the PV was wonderful =333
Flavor of Life is the best 2007's Ballad until now, such a beautiful song *.*
[It really deserved to sell as well]

And now, I'm SOOO EXCITED for the upcoming UTADA's new album /o\
I hope it's as good as Exodus'04 that I really loved <3

GO! Hikki & UTADA !!
