That's good, because in just a few hours, YouTube "took it down". As to bland, I would describe it as Minimalist which is as much a New York City Modernist sensibility for buildings and furniture, as it is a stripped down, less busy, more elemental music video style. I like the luxuriously prolonged and intimate views of her face, which is the essence of a FanBoi's enjoyment of a Hikki music video. I like her confidence in doing this type of video, although she did a simple one once before, that "kitchen sink" video. I imagine she is addressing Husband Kiriya Kazuaki directly, because I know what it is to get divorced, and to an innocent person, the pain of separation from a loved one is very surprising. So, I think Hikki is an innocent person, giving expression to an inchoate aspect of "The Human Condition", which is Loneliness. Also, the elemental, minimalist style of this Heart Station music video, contrasts so markedly with the wonderful, colorful, motion filled and "happy" music videos Utada did with Kiriya: Traveling and Sakura Drops come to mind instantly, of course. I don't know who left who, but I hope Kiriya is not too proud to give her a call when he sees this Heart Station music video. I hope he can get through to her, too. You never know, about the phalanx surrounding celebrities and their success. Just look at America's Britney, for example. Talk about legal wrangling....
