If you're listening to Hikki, that means you're listening to a language you don't understand too. Hikki herself also was inspired by other musicians as well right? She sang a rendition of Edith Piaf's Hymne ? l'amour. How can language be an exception when it comes to good music?That's just ignoring the aesthetics of music itself. Besides there's translations you could look up on.

I'm not saying you must listen to Japanese and all that, but people who listen and want to understand music shouldn't limit themselves and should broaden up their retrospect of music.

Hikki is a modest musician and she got what she deserved. She didn't 'gave it up when she had it all'. If she did, she wouldn't be so successful today.
And sure, of course there are musicians like Hikki who put all their hearts into music.
Please check out the Other Music section or if you're interested and wanna dig deeper into foreign music I could name you a few good ones.Quote:
