omg guys...the boulevard of broken dreams one is burning my ears. She cannot sing that song at all....dude i think im gonna cry. she should stick to j-pop....lol.

I don't think it was that bad. Although maybe she was a bit nervous, thinking, "OMG, my fans are gonna hear me say the f word!"

LMAO, I was listenning to the song while I was reading your post and she said it XD she wasn't very good though IMO

 

[NarutoEXE]

Well, at least she tried.

 

[Whispered.Hope]

Whee, I was wondering about that live version when I heard about it. Thanks for putting it up ^^ Gotta listen to it.

After listening to Utada for a while I conclude that

aozora = blue

no shita de = beneath

Am I right? What does no shita de mean literally?

Aosora [青空] is actually just mixing 'aoi', which means 'blue', and 'sora', which is 'sky', together. As NarutoEXE stated, it does mean blue sky.

'no shita de' does mean beneath ^^ Alone, 'shita' means below, but when placed in a sentence, contructed as '(...no) shita ni/de', it means beneath. Hoped that helped.

WOW!!! I finally found a way to watch the live passion/broken dreams video and WOW! I love it!!! Utada Hikaru just amazed me-i mean the way she talks in Japanese and then sings English just amazes me!
And passion was beautiful. Great-worth the time figuring out my stupid computer. ;P

 

[Fantasy Angel]

*falls over* Wow. Never thought I'd live to hear, never expected to hear it! I love Hikki, it wasn't bad but just never thought I'd see the day.

 

[BunnyCupCakes]

Gee, u guys make it seem that she sung Boulevard Of Broken Dreams really bad. To me, it was GOOD. Her sayin the F*** word....priceless.

She sung Passion good too along with it.

 

[NarutoEXE]

Her sayin the F*** word....priceless.

I agree, although it sounded more like "Fock" then "F*ck".

 

[Whispered.Hope]

I don't get it...I didn't hear any profanity xD Where was it? But I didn't think Hikki sang Boulevard Of Broken Dreams that badly, either. 'Course, I never heard the original, but it was good for what it was.

1:44 seconds into the songs the lyrics are:

RUMOR ALERT!!!!
RUMOR ALERT!!!!
RUMOR ALERT!!!!
BELIEVE AT OWN RISK!!!!!

Passion English title: Sanctuary
Sanctuary release date: 2.22.06

Sanctuary is believed to be released as a B-Side to Hikki's next single, Keep Tryin'; just like how S&C was released as a B-Side to COLORS.

Also, a late February single would be ideal for having the English version of "Passion" (which is rumored to be titled "Sanctuary"), since the North American version of Kingdom Hearts II comes out in March...

You have to remember these are all still rumors; but it seems as though Hikaru mentioned in one (or more?) of her recent radio interviews that there is an English version of Passion in existence, and that it's titled "Sanctuary"... Someone on a Japanese forum posted about it about a week or so ago...

So yeah, I wouldn't jump to any conclusions just yet, but hopefully we'll find out soon if in fact these rumors are true

 

[soraandkairi4eva]

Omg!!!!....................

 

[NarutoEXE]

If these rumors are proved wrong later in Feb., I give everyone the right to shoot me. XD We'll probably get a confirmation of it tomorrow since the Passion Internet Live ends like in 8-9 hours and EMI will be able to post up some news about Keep Tryin'. Remember, these are RUMORS! BELIEVE AT OWN RISK!!!

 

[Sora_The_Bearer]

Woah.. Naruto. Thanks for that info! Sounds like a mysterious title 'Sanctuary'.. I wonder what it means.
