Which do you think is known by more people in the U.S.: Simple and Clean or Easy Breezy? Simple and Clean has a big following but Easy Breezy was played on the radio/MTV so it reached a non-video gaming and j-pop listening audience. I wonder if they have statistics out there somewhere for this...

I'm pretty sure, everyone knows Utada from Simple and Clean. Kingdom Hearts was like played by everyone. So they know her by that. That's what made her known here in the US. That's how I found out about her. The same with L'Arc~en~Ciel, with Ready Steady Go, for Full Metal Alchemist. That's how they got big in the US.

People here (where I live) hate Eazy Breezy though my best friends and I love that song and "Hikari". Personally, I used to like it until it got overplayed. But that song tends to get way better responses! But I'm so mad when people poke fun at the "Japaneesy line!". ;_; I love Utada so much and I love her sense of humor. I always poke fun at my ethnicity and I feel bad that people don't express that they feel comfortable with music that shouts out "FORIEGN!". When "Simple and Clean" played around here, people had no problem because they didn't know that it was related to Japanese culture or anything.
