Does she usually make a CD that comes along with a story?

That's a really good question. I can't believe this got buried by the crap thread and user pics so quickly. Getcha' heads in the game, guys.

I know some of her songs definitley tell a story, and her CD's definitley follow a stylistic theme (with the exception of singles collections). I don't know if any of her CD's have songs in a certain order for the purpose of narrative, or if they reflect on something about Hikki or the making of the album itself.

Here's a mind blower. Could there be continuity between albums or singles? Eg. Be My Last > Flavor of Life could be taken as a whole to tell a story about the process of ending a relationship and moving on...

*thought provoking*

Hmm.. that is very thought provoking. It would be amazing if she was purposely doing that. She would get another from me and many others if she did so!

Have you tried sites like dailymotion.com? I remember watching a subbed version of colors there.

I'd give you a link to the songs but my computer isn't hooking up to the site (along with others) right now. Dang connection ...

I never noticed that but it would be really cool if she were. If that's not really what she's trying to do I can just imagine she is telling a story through her CDs. I have a good imagination.

she'll be a unique author writing stories when they are actually lyrics to her own songs

If you think about it

Prisoner of Love - Depressed about a love.
Take 5 - Suicide / death over the lost love.
Boku wa Kuma - Reborn as a new person. Bears are often seen as symbols of childs and rebirth.
Niji-iro Bus - Searching for a better life beyond reality.
Flavor of Life - Life?s not that bad! A hopeful album ending.
