this is what you get if you push another artist near the goddess Hikaru!

There will only be one Utada Hikaru! end of discussion!!

there are advantages and disadvantages comparing an artist from another. i think one advantage is people will be curious in that artist, take for example Ayaka, they will be wondering why is she being given the title the new Utada Hikaru, so they will check her out, not all, but she will excite some attention, due to Hikaru-san. after the curiousity and comparison, some people will be disappointed or will get irate, thinking why are they comparing her to our idol? but some will discover that she can be a good listen, thereby gaining some attention. so by comparing her to Utada Hikaru she gain some attention and some followers. but it will be up to her if she will be successful in the future, coz she is always running the risk of being compared to the one and only queen Utada Hikaru!
