"You're easy breezy and I'm Japanese-y" always kills me.

'Uncontrolled' was her worst album since 2000's 'break the rules' but it still SLAYED the charts so I ain't mad at it

First Love aged a lot, Distance not so much. But it's not a bad kind of aging; it's like a fine wine

And BYE, I always heat that sh!t up and end up so disappointed, one of the worst feelings in the world tbh

"Wait & See" & "Can You Keep A Secret" are the only ones that have aged well but even that migth be pushing it.

Songs that sound old are necessarily a bad thing though.
"Time Limit" is straight out of Darkchild's 90s bag of tricks but I can still BOP

Which is exactly why I love bringing it up.



Oh and trust me the song has quite a few defenders in Tinychat.

God this has to be one of the messiest days I've had on ATRL since the Utada dragging session month in 2010.

'STYLE', 'PLAY', 'Queen of Hip-Pop' and 'PAST<FUTURE' all sh!t on 'Uncontrolled'. Please don't try and tell me otherwise

I see the J-Pop thread is claiming back the throne, pulling a schmaltzy Namie revival.

Let's not begin talk about aging.

But lol at the song getting quoted almost 9 years later, the queen her POWER

That one song is more iconic than Koda's existence so I understand why it makes those forehead veins pop

That was manslaughter.
You guys went too hard on the Goddess of J-Pop that is Utada and the poor Newt.

Kumi's comments about woman body fluid is easily more iconic than Utada's entire existance

For all the wrong reasons.

And nothing has my veins popping. Your acting all shady now but once I get Gisele back here you'll be back in place as usual.

With the rate coming up soon and Kumi announcing new music the thread should be headed for its best summer in years.

BTW, I'm so happy I finally have a reason to use all my AJ Lee gifs

[Belle]

for the record I'll never understand the controversy over Kumi's comments, I thought she was...basically right, if not somewhat uninformed?

Not Break The LURES

I'm glad you see things my way though

Giselle ain't ****

And no one really remembers the body fluid comment, just like no one but queers on the internet will remember who she is in like 5 years. Utada's legacy will live on foreva

I believe it came across as inconsiderate and uncalled-for.
The society just didn't want to hear that.

She already had a lot of haters on her side for what she represented and how she was reigning over the industry the scandal just gave them the reason they were waiting for to bring her down. Nonetheless it's all in the past now and I'm ready for what's next.

I mean I totally, totally see where she would have been better off not making it at all in that situation but, like...on the whole it was more controversial than I would have ever expected, I guess.
