9.11

9.11 
　That happened in Sep. 11th, 2001. I would not be able to forget the day when I lost some of my friends who were my classmate in Chicago. A war broke out, and be still at war even now. I don't know when the war would be over, but only what I know is that those victims will never come back. It seems that our world must be changed a lot by that terrorism in N.Y.


A good news in Japan is that Hikaru Utada, who has been No.1 singer in Japan, will make her US debut in Oct 5th with her album EXODUS. Hikaru has selected Utada as her artist name in the US and she is simply bursting with musical energy on this historical release. She and her producing team have come up with a 14-track strong effort that features an attractive blend of dance, funk, pop, alternative and various other music styles. On the special guest list fans can find names like Timbaland who has worked for the late great Aaliyah and Missy Elliott among other stars before plus Jon Theodore from the American rock band Mars Volta. Get ready for stunning new material like Devil Inside as Hikaru returns with wonderful dance beats made even spicier by a touch of Asian flavor.
