Just jumping in the midst of this mini-debate here, but I'm also of the opinion that pop stations like z100 are full of crap. "Come Back to Me" is NOT like the majority of the pop songs given adequate airtime- it doesn't sound anything like them, and that's probably its biggest flaw in terms of getting radio time.

...Actually, correct me if i'm wrong, but i went on z100's online Mediabase request page to request Utada and... her stuff wasn't on the list. X: I thought it'd still be there since they threw in Poppin' on the list but now theyre both not there. I have no idea what's going on and i'm so confused. TxT;

Yikes you're right. I still won't discourage people voting there, but yeah I don't think we should count on them adding the song anytime soon...

i don't think we shuld give up on z100 considering how big of a station they are. maybe they just need a bit of a bigger push for hikki to be considered one of their "hot" artists. also i noticed that the online request form is specifically for the interactive 9 at 9, so maybe she got taken off of that cuz there just wasnt enough votes for her there. i think calling the station wuld be better since we culd talk to them and show them how much we want utada to play on the radio.

Ahhh~ as you all must know, Utada had an interview on z100. A lot of my friends heard it this morning (i was either asleep or in class, harhar) on the radio. i heard it on the z100 website. Anyway, during the interview, they played Poppin' (such a hilariously good song aaahh) and i thought.. "Whoooaaa, theyre playing Poppin?! Does that mean they take Utada requests because they played her music and they really like her as a person?!!"

...Soooo, i called up z100 and it kind of went like this:

- "Hello, z100!"
` "Hi, can i make a song request please??"
- "Yeah, sure!"
` "Uuuhhmmm, would you hapen to have Poppin by Utada?"
- "Ohhh, gosh, Utada -- you know what? You're like the second person to request her."
` "Oh, really??"
- "Yeeeaah, not a lot of people have been requesting her -- but we talked to our Music Department about playing her music and they just said, 'Yeah, yeah, let's just wait on it, we know she's going to be big'. So we ARE looking forward to playing her stuff here in the near future."
` "Ohh, wow, awesome!"
- "Yeah, she's great, she has a huge following here already."
` "YEAH I KNOW!! I'm so excited for her! Her music is so good!"

[blah blah something about him asking me what i'm doing right now and non-Utada related fillings]

- "Well, thanks for calling z100, sorry for not being able to play Utada.."
` "Ohh, nono! Thank you for this!"

[farewells etc etc.]


It was something to that effect from what i remember.
