This will get it the exposure it deserves. And as I've stated probably hundreds of times, SONG OF THE YEAR.

Yes I luv it! I just found it and I'm on my second listen. I can't listen to it too much. I wanna get a chance to hear it on the radio so I can feel the epicness of the song. lol
*sigh* The day I don't read comments like the one i just quoted....

Sounds like every other song on the hip-hop/r&b radio stations in the US
Lyrics included. "Come back to me baby, I admitted I cheated now I regret it!" I've already heard this song a thousand times already in the US |

That said, I like it, even though it sound like something that Chris Brown or Beyonce would sing. However, since I like both of the artist, I don't really mind. But I wonder since the song's less experimental than the stuff on Exodus, it might mean greater commercial success because American mainstream might like it better.

I love it! Everything about it! What a great way to start off the new year~! I agree it sounds a lot like other songs on the radio, but I have a feeling this song will get Hikki noticed. It's more mainstream. I am sooo going to request this song on all the radio stations possible

It's a very standard sounding R&B ballad. It's nice, but there's nothing special about it. Although I am glad it's not all electronic sounding like practically every song on Exodus. The last track on that album, which featured a real acoustic guitar, was like a sudden breath of fresh air. BUT I HATE how Hikki changes what she's all about in her US songs. It's like....so fake. Her Japanese songs have all these domestic, honest feelings about "turn off the TV and look only at me" (hikari) or "when I see my weak face in the mirror, I want to smash it" (keep tryin'). Then her US songs are full of all this superficial, overdone crap like "boy, you're so hot, let's turn this room into a melting pot" or the "I cheated" BS in this song. I know those subjects are popular in US music, but come on. It's not her at all.

hikki sure is damn smart
I don't really like it, because it's not really the style that I like... and um, some of the lyrics are really cheesy...the one in a million isn't cool... but I hope people here will like it, since it's a pretty standard ballad. I wish it was a little more catchy though, don't we americans love catchy music I guess it's okay. It disappoints me a little, because I didn't want her to do this, but, i can't really blame her.

It doesn't really leave any kind of impression on me. So I voted for "don't like it," since voice/melody/lyrics all lack that something that would catch my interest.

I really just don't understand how the two songs are comparable?
