Utada Hikaru is undoubtly one of the most successful singer in Japan. Each time she releases a single or an album it became an overnight success. And she deserves it, because her song are really that great. Ive got almost her songs in my computer and 1 album that was legitimately bought (sorry Utada!) almost every song that she recorded were fantastic.
My all time favourite has to be “Be My Last” from the “Ultra Blue” album. Such a simple song, her voice and 2 guitars were the only major components of the entire song and yet it really brings out her great voice. If you listen using a headphone, you will realise the amount of depth the song has to offer. The mixing is extremely good.

Recently, she released her latest single, Flavor of Life. It became really popular topping charts (no.1 for 3 weeks) in terms of physical sales and digital downloads (highest number of downloads of all time).
