Since her English album will be out soon, I just wanted to hear your predictions on what will it be in it's near release? Would it make a big success?

I liked "Come Back to me" and been listening to it several times a day, but it really makes me wonder if it will hit the American market? Since I've not yet been hearing promotions of it in the U.S. as I can see promotions are low, just like the Exodus era.

I'm actually giving a huge expectations on this since Stargate and Christopher Stewart co-produced it. I just hope they won't fail.

Hey! What is fail(you talking)?
you said about low sells?
The only important thing is you like utada and her music, or not.
If it will low sells, you quit her fan?

Ureyuki bakari kinisuru hito wa hontou no fan deha naiyo lol
Karugarushiku Fail to iu kotoba wo tsukaunayo

You don't get what I mean. Her previous English album didn't hit well in the American market, what I'm saying is that, I want them to give her bigger promotion in the U.S. I know her songs are really awesome, and I didn't talk about that her songs are FAILURE. Indeed, most of the tracks on her Exodus album have sort of not western like rhythm and lyrics, but it is very interesting. Her Japanese albums were really a big success. But the first English album wasn't due to lack of promotions.

What I'm intending to say on what I've posted I hope they won't FAIL. Is that I want them to help Hikki promote her albums more on the States. That's what I want Stargate and Christopher Stewart to do.

Watashi wa honto ni Hikki fan desu. Baka na koto o shabette nai, Hikki no koto. Moshi, imi ga wakaranai ja motto yomu kudasai. Ima o wakatteru ka?

Uhh, can't you be more open-minded and understood what I've meant? Haven't I made it clear on my second statement? It's pointless to deal with if a person doesn't understand simple thoughts.

Hey hey Please dont ugly
I think you are really hikki fan and wish she success in US!
I thin this is an undoubted fact.
My opinion is also almost the same.
But even if the album doesn't sell, I don't wanna say because of producers. It is only a result.

I'm not starting an arguement or something, I just want to express my opinions but I guess it didn't reached you. Anyway, lack of promotion is the biggest thing that I'm pointing out,

think slightly better than exodus

and it will help if she think of a simpler name, like self titled or something, not some 'unique' name, if u guys know what i mean

something like not sounding too complicated

lol macky, and i thought i saw lotsa advertisements on the net about easy breezy though

well i predict that her new english is gonna do better then exodus BUT! is not gonna hit it big in the america market cuz u know how america is....... so close minded

Well since nobody has yet to make a concrete prediction on this thread I'll throw my hat in the ring.

I'm feeling very optimistic about this new album and I will boldly say that it will go PLATINUM plus with 3 top 20 hits in America.

Yes, I know that sounds a bit far fetched to say after what happened to Exodus but I believe her fanbase in the States has grown larger since 2004 and this is the type of album that could sell really well here.

All she needs is promotion.

If it sells under 200,000 copies and has no Top 20 hits then it is a failure.

Hikki is gonna rock in 2009, mark my words.
