Utada may not be well known in the states but in Japan and throughout most of Asia she is a powerhouse. This is her follow up to First Love. I'd describe that album as compareable to a Jpop version of Britney Spears or Christina Aguilera's debut albums.
Distance separates itself as Utada begins to enlist a few American RnB songwriters and producers in the effort. This album was huge, not as big as Automatic was, but to me this is the album where she really starts shining musically.
You have hits like "Can You Keep a Secret" which was on constant rotation on the music station then (Space Shower TV). "Distance" is such a pretty upbeat song about longing to be with someone. Great opening sample on "Addicted to You" that loops with a great melody right into "For You." The DarkChylde produced "Time Limit" is yet another banger. "Parody" is a tribal drum, bass driven very interesting song and if you can find the version she did for Unplugged Japan give it a listen. Also when will we get Utada Unplugged released??
I don't think there were any other Jpop artists coming to the US to record with American producers at this time period which makes for a very unique listen. And this album starts to scratch the surface of where she was headed before recording "Deep River." This really captures a time period we will never see again. So happy to have seen her when she came to NYC many years ago, as I believe she is retired from touring.
The records sound really good, the only bad part I feel is the vinyl is lacking a little depth in the basslines. But after only hearing this on CD for years I'm very happy to finally have this on vinyl. -
All of Hikki’s albums are being repressed onto vinyl this year! https://www.utadahikaru.jp/en/news/detail.html?id=536869
