I just needed a place to say that BAD Mode may be her best album yet and that after revisiting Exodus and TITO I still love her English work and miss her horny tracks.

Has anyone been able to listen back to their Zane Lowe interview? I'm in the UK and it doesn't appear on the Apple Music app for me (I'm not a subscriber) but I can see later shows. Thanks in advance!

Been obsessing over the new album so much. I wasn't expecting to get so emotional during 'Kibun Ja Nai no (Not In The Mood)' every time I listen to it, especially at the end when Hikki sings the end section "Hey how are you"... followed by her son. What an unexpected touch to that song.
Definitely a favorite on the album, but I utterly love "Find Love" and it's probably my #1 off the album right now.

I don't think I'm really in love with the album... Bad Mode is still the only album song I really like (I just can't get into the other three). However, I have been hooking onto PINK BLOOD and Face My Fear for the past month, though I prefer the single version of FMF. I just don't like how hikki took on softer approach in the album version. As a whole I think this album is better than Hatsukoi, but I prefer the concept of Hatsukoi more.

^I had hoped she'd get 100k first week but it's a very solid number!
In other news Hikki is going to perform at Coachella this Saturday! https://twitter.com/88rising/status/...--HI4Krow&s=19 https://twitter.com/88rising/status/...PCm5jIQWQ&s=19 Apparently there's gonna be 8 artists in 80 minutes, so Hikki will probably do two songs. I'd love for them to perform Find Love. Also, some fans have speculated that Hikki might perform sth with Jackson Wang, since she started following him recently. Could simply be due to appearing at the same event and nothing more, who knows. I'm shocked but also super happy!  Hikki's tweet: https://twitter.com/utadahikaru/stat...iusn42UYQ&s=19

Hikki's setlist (it was basically a ten-minute medley):
1. Simple And Clean 2. First Love 3. Face My Fears 4. Automatic It was very nice!  Hikki was clearly nervous & the stream had some sound issues but it got better as the performance progressed. Hikki also seemed a lot more relaxed during Automatic (my personal favourite of the night). Still can't believe this actually happened.I wish they had sung Find Love but god, seeing her on that stage felt wonderful. She really deserves it!  Apparently, they will perform next week, too, so I'm really looking forward to that. Lastly, this is completely off-topic BUT Spoiler:
UPDATE: HIKKI JUST PREMIERED A NEW SONG!!!

^Agreed! She was a lot better by the time she started singing Automatic, tho! Some non-fans made some harsh comments about the vocal but most seem to realize it was the nerves and that it got better (+ Hikki just struggles more with these really high notes). Hikki isn't the best live performer by any means but Automatic showed she's a lot better than what the S&C performance would lead one to believe.
I'm really liking the new song! I'm also glad that Hikki has been getting quite a lot of attention (they even trended in the US), as I kind of expected them to go a bit 'unnoticed', but thankfully that's not the case! There are tons of tweets about them that have thousands of likes. Get that promo, Godtada!
