Oh I'm really surprised by all the comments saying she will not sell more than 100 K lol I'm not a fan FAN but I assume she keept a sizable fanbase in Japan ! We will see but if even her is not able to sell more than 100 K it will tell alot about the state of songwriters in Japan at the same time from 2010 to 2016 the new generation grewn up and maybe they don't even remember who she is ? considering she was already pretty inactive after 2008 in Japan ?

I'm pretty sure Godtada will sell more than 100K. :'D
As for the new songs, I still haven't listened to the previews or the full versions (are they even out in full yet? I don't remember when the release date was) but I'm still very excited over this comeback. It's great she did this. Just in time for my 10th anniversary as a fan. XD |

I think EMI Japan has been under Universal since 2013.
Just 2.5 more days!!! Can't wait to listen to the full version of Hanataba wo Kimi ni .

The songs are available on (Japanese) iTunes.
Just bought them. Both songs are definitely about her mother, lyrics-wise. 真夏の通り雨 is so sad. I love the ending. Reading it along with the lyrics almost made me cry. It's clear she's torn between mourning her mother and being happy with her new family. Last edited by tenshi no hane; 14th April 2016 at 05:57 PM. |

is the iTunes file something wrong in Hanataba? Around 0:34 - 0:35 (before the second Itoshi hito).
Hanataba is for sunshine morning, while Manatsu is for a rainy afternoon or night.

The lyrics actually turned out much more provoking than I anticipated. Anyone else not expecting the sudden twist at the end, with her singing that the memories suddenly overflow and the midsummer rain will not stop? And the line about continuing to look tomorrow for a future where the person still exists? Utada's definitely got her touch still. I don't even know how to properly express the impressiveness of this. I certainly would not expect something so strong from someone who hasn't written more than one song in 6 years.

Yeah Manatsu lyrics is very powerful. I'm glad she simply used piano and some strings to accompany the lyrics.
I can't find Hanataba lyrics now so I dun really know what the full song is about.

Are you guys reading the onehallyu translation? 'Cause it has mistakes.
I also made my own, if anyone is interested. Ayu and Hikki's lyrics are always the most interesting to translate. They write proper sentences. 真夏の通り雨 translation: Spoiler:

^^San you .
I think Hanatabta's file was corrupted when Universal sent the songs to every site (iTunes, recochoku, mora). I heard the same corrputed "i"toshi hito in every preview.

Thanks for the translations, tenshi. I have always loved Hikki's lyrics the most out of all J-Pop artists I listen to.
I gotta watch the PV when I'm on my computer. My ipad's browser crashes the moment I try to watch it so I shall wait until I'm able to use my laptop again. |

Wow, those lyrics are so sad but beautiful. I'm glad she's able to express herself though.
