Like I said in her record thread, its her worst video..And that saying alot if you've seen Hikari. 
The worst part of it is the fake tan with hooker red lipstick (which she doesn't have anymore). Her vids should only be directed by Kiriya. Kiriya's vids > everyone elses.

Traveling is awesome stuff. It's like one big acid trip.

If you don't want to deal with itunes.
Yeah it is awful. I like the album as a whole though. Exodus '04 = rock on.

The BEST part of the Easy Breezy video is the guy who gets thrown into the pool with incredible ragdoll physics just southeast of Utada in the first shot. LOOK FOR HIM, I could loop it over and over and over.

Her English lyrics are HORRIBLE.

With the exception of a few songs i'll agree there. She recently said that when she started writing her English lyrics she decided that with a few songs she'd just write stuff that rhymed even if it didn't make sense. I would've liked for her to translate Deep River into English.

Ack, she wrote her own English lyrics? And here I was hoping otherwise. Blech.
And yes, the video is pretty blech as well. I hope she's not going to let this puddle seep into her Japanese albums.

I was hoping she wouldn't do that -- won't be much of a break into American Pop Culture if she's gonna pull a Jin and emphasize the whole japanese thing to excess. Is this the first single or was "By Your Side"? Either way, she sounds off key and half a beat off... if that's what she's going for... then it doesn't work to well.
Any other songs on this album that I can look forward to, ssx? =)

Kremlin Dusk, Exodus 04, Animato, and About Me are all really good.

One thing I must say, despite the lyrics being bad, everything else I enjoy. I didn't quite find her voice off really, and the music is nice to dance to. Sure it's not her best, but it's definitely good as far as that. But when you try and sing along, well, then you just seem to lose your interest.
But it's not a bad album per se, I think it would have been pretty decent had she put some extra effort, or more, into the lyrics.

I agree that its bad, but I wouldn't blame Hikki over this, it's not like she directed it or anything. They let her have control over how the record sounded now they're marketing it the way they want. It's just a shame that they didn't pay attention to her career in Japan and notice that what made her stand out is because she didn't do the samething everyone else did.
