[2006] what's better? ULTRA BLUE Vs (miss)understood

[Ani_C]

My problem is that i've only heard (m)u and i haven't heard UB. So I chose (m)u LOL. I heard Colors in UB and I was amazed haha, and I bet if I were to hear all of UB i'd probably like it more than (m)u because I ruined the album for myself by hearing a bunch of singles before it came out. I bet that's why some of you prefer UB.

(miss)understood.

Though the name blows, I don't like Udata.

No_Doubt.

ZOMG U ROCK. D:'

XDD

[Ayashi]

Although (miss)understood is my fav Ayu album, I prefer Ultra blue, hands down. Songs like Be my last, Kairo... They are just too good.

hard, but I think I will have to choose ultra blue

ULTRA BLUE

I have listened to this album so much....I absolutely love every single track. Utada's talent in making music is just awesome. I wish that she'd release more, because everything she releases is top-notch, and the fact that her music is absolutely excellent, just makes me respect her more as a musician, instead of as a popstar.

And even though I love m(u), and would always support Ayu, ULTRA BLUE, blew everything out of the water.

No Doubt, I do have to agree with you though. When I first heard ULTRA BLUE, I felt like some of the songs had been put together in a week or less....like they just hurried to put out the album...but I can't deny...even with all the facts against it, that I just really love this album.

I think part of the reason is that, this album reminds me of the kind of music I would make if I were a musician.

(m)u...i'm biased...

[ayu_fan929]

I'll give points for ULTRA BLUE for the creative aspect, since she did try something new with this. But I enjoyed (miss) understood more.

[Akirame]

hmm.. I go for Ultra Blue... I dont really like miss understood that much.. >_>

[Zeke.]

I made a thread like this except it was "Will Ultra Blue be better than (m)u" - It is still pretty active in the asian music chat. Ayu was ahead by a short amount.

[darkswordz]

both both equally now

Also, This Is Love. One heck of an amazing song but her vocals just pierce when the volume is a little high. But overall, the album is quite cohesive if you leave Colors out. (miss)understood works better as a collection of singles than an album. Such a shame, great songs, poor setlist.

thank you for saying this....i was beginning to think I was the only one who thought it didn't go...

I mean, I love the individual song....but I still dont think it goes well...

(miss)undersold was an absolute mess of an album. Ayumi Hamasaki lost her special touch with this one.

ULTRA BLUE was by far better. Utada Hikaru has a better way of putting album songs with singles and making them work together.

There's a reason why ULTRA BLUE is probably going to be Hikki's first non-million-selling-album. Even after the disaster that was EXODUS.. D: I wonder if she'll be able to recover.

[Ayu on the other hand has stayed strong consistently in terms of physical sales even with the increased competition~]

And even then, it still looks like UB can over take (m)u. Difference of like 8k in Hikki's favor? <3

I'm biased, I go with ULTRA BLUE.

I never actually listened to (miss)understood straight, but I do own 3 of the 4 singles that made the album. I also downloaded Bold & Delicious/Pride and the other songs available only on (miss)understood. Regardless of arrangement, I have to say that ULTRA BLUE is much better than (miss)understood. It just had me listening to it more often than (miss)understood had.

ULTRA BLUE vs (miss)understood

Round 1

ULTRA BLUE: I'm from the future
(miss)understood: I'm done
