Utada Hikaru – Boku wa Kuma
Release Date: November 26, 2006
Tracklist:
1. Boku wa Kuma
2. Boku wa Kuma (Original Karaoke)
Wow, a children’s song being released as a single? Well, that’s a first.
Boku wa Kuma starts off with nice keyboard introduction, and the ostinato it establishes in the beginning continues on into the piece. The lyrics itself are pretty simple, and repetitive; well, [...]

Tracklist:
1. Keep Tryin’
2. WINGS
3. Keep Tryin’ [Original Karaoke]
Keep Tryin’ is a fun little piece that has a certain…bounce to it. It’s just so upbeat! Not my type of song, but I do listen to it when I listen to Ultra Blue as a whole. The background music is completely synth, [...]
Utada Hikaru – Passion
Release Date: December 14, 2005
Tracklist:
1. Passion ~single version~
2. Passion ~after the battle~
Man, I just have a thing for Utada’s Kingdom Hearts songs. First Hikari, and now Passion. The synth of at the beginning just sets of this EPIC, EPIC, EPIC, and yet, calm emotion. Also, the lyrics are very poetic, very unlike a typical pop [...]
Utada Hikaru – Be My Last
Release Date: September 28, 2005
Tracklist:
1. Be My Last
Ahhh, I just love Be My Last for some reason, even though it’s quite dull. The only part that irratates me is the ‘ahhh’s, which were repetetive. This song is an aucoustic guitar ballad, with a calming feel to it. It’s not really an exciting song, but if [...]

Release Date: April 21, 2004
Tracklist:
1. Dareka no Nagai ga Kanau Koro
2. Dareka no Nagai ga Kanau Koro (Instrumental)

Tracklist:

COLORS is on my all time favourites list from Utada. The imagery of the lyrics is quite beautiful, and matches the title really nicely. Hikki’s voice is also at its best here too; dripping with emotion while tackling the [...]
