Think I can safely say I like This Is the One over Exodus for her English language stuff considering the latter is almost my entire bottom half. It's just too full of that wonky Scott Storch style production... Wrong Kingdom Hearts song out first btw Simple & Clean overrated.

How is this out before the very basic song that is Come Back to Me? Only 4 points difference... I admit I cheated Don't know why I did it But I do regret it Nothing I can do or say can change the past"Come Back To Me" is the lead single of This Is The One. It was the first collaboration between Utada and the Norwegian production duo StarGate. Upon release, critics have drawn comparison between the song and "We Belong Together". In the US, the song was promoted to the Pop, Rhythmic, and Dance radio formats, where it peaked at #69, #39, and #5, respectively. Utada also performed the song on The Early Show.

How is this out before the very basic song that is Come Back to Me? It had Christmas in the title, which means it couldn't escape the curse, lol. Face My Fears is gorgeous.

Aw this out in the bottom half? The best stuff here was the ones like this with the slight EDM edge.

"Come Back To Me" is the most mainstream Utada song ever created in my opinion. As much as I appreciate it being such a smooth listen, I don't feel very sad about seeing it leave now over other more risky/artsy materials.

Nostalgia played a big factor in me ranking “Come Back to Me”, I remember listening to it a lot when it first came out. It definitely sounds more mainstream and even a little basic compared to some of her other stuff here, so I understand the exit here. I also love the smoothness of it all too.
“Merry Christmas Mr. Lawrence” was a jarring one, I love the original song (an instrumental) but I feel like the lyrics here and the instrumentals are a mismatch.

My Top 6 is in the Top 7!!!! My #9 is the only other one left, so I'll take this as a win!
And we began with taste by dumping "Easy Breezy" right off the bat. WTF was she thinking with releasing that song to the world, let alone as the lead single!!

^ probably my least favorite single by her...Not to mention that a choice was made about that cover, and it wasn't a good one.

Kingdom Hearts has a massive advantage here. However, anything would be better than that faceless Stargate track.

Rooting for S&C or Devil Inside to take it. But I liked all of the songs other than my bottom 2, and they're both gone already.

You don't know 'cuz you're too busy reading labels You're missing all the action underneath my table"Devil Inside" is the second single of Exodus. The song was a huge success in the dance scene, peaking at #1 on Billboard's Dance Club Songs chart as well as #10 on Dance Airplay chart. The Richard Vission Experience remix was featured in the season 5 of the groundbreaking LGBT series Queer As Folk.

You show me how to see That nothing is whole and Nothing is broken"Sanctuary" is the theme song for Kingdom Hearts 2. The song was the English version of "Passion" which was released in 2005 as a single from her 4th Japanese-language album ULTRA BLUE. In 2014, an official cover version by Jam & Lewis and Peabo Bryson (!!) was included in the compilation album, Utada Hikaru's Songs -13 Explainations by 13 Groups of Musicians- (宇多田ヒカルのうた -13組の音楽家による13の解釈について-). In this rankdown, it took the #3 spot from "Apple and Cinnamon" by only 1 point.
