If you're lucky, you can find them in import stores. I had a really hard time to find her album Exodus. It was suppose to be distributed locally, but it took me almost 6 months to find it and I took the only one copy. =T

LOL. Yea, I'm sure you're heartbroken right now. hehe

Here's the news article from Japan-zone.com

Singer Utada Hikaru (24) and filmmaker Kiriya Kazuaki (38) have divorced. And it was revealed that her parents also divorced yet again last year - for the seventh time! Just as her marriage to Kiriya was announced on Hikki's website four and a half years ago, on Saturday she used the same website to reveal that they had divorced the previous day. She thanked fans fopr their support and apologized for the sudden announcement. She cited different views of the future and a lack of communication due to her business international work schedule as the main reasons for the split. Kiriya posted his message on the same site, an indicator of the one-sided nature of their respective levels of success and fame. The two met in 2000 during the design of the sleeve for Hikki's 7th single, "Can You Keep a Secret?" Two years later, she underwent surgery for ovarian cancer and just five months later they were married. They worked together in several different capacities, one being Utada's title song for "Casshern", Kiriya's 2004 debut as a movie director. He also supported her during her attempt the same year to break into the U.S. market. According to a friend of the couple, neither of them are particularly sociable or talkative types and so communication was a problem for them. Utada, whose parents have divorced and re-married each other a ridiculous seven times since 1981, was looking to him as an older man who could support her emotionally. She made no mention of the split during her live appearance on Friday's "Music Station", where she performed her new single "Flavor of Life". Bittersweet is probably the flavor one would use in English to refer to her life right now, though she referred to it as being like "green pepper tempura".


AHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!! Shocked OMGGG That is so freakin sudden and horrible.

However, I didn't even know she was married. That's sad news. If it's true that she was feeling lonely then that's bad. However, if it's because of her work then it might have been inevitable. And i didn't know she had ovarian cancer. At such a young age. Wow, Utada has had her share of troubles in life.

Here's something for Utada Hikaru fans... (from Japan-zone.com)

Singer Utada Hikaru has reclaimed her top spot in the hearts of Japanese music fans. For the fourth time, and the first since 2004, she has topped the Oricon annual ranking of the country's favorite artists. She took the No.1 spot back from Aiko (31), who held it the last two years. She's had an eventful year, releasing the No.1 single "Flavor of Life" in February and announcing her divorce from filmmaker Kiriya Kazuaki (39) in March. At No.2 were the duo Kobukuro, who grabbed their first chart-topping single in April, followed by veteran rock band Mr. Children. The ranking is based on a survey of 20,000 readers of the "Oricon Style" magazine.

Utada regains Favorite Artist title, backed by "Flavor"


Thu, July 19, 2007


On Thursday, the magazine Oricon Style revealed the results of its annual "Favorite Artist Ranking." This year, the #1 spot was recaptured by Hikaru Utada.

Kobukuro and Mr.Children were the next highest-ranked artists. In another survey published at the same time, Ayaka was named the top artist of the next generation.

The "Favorite Artist Ranking" began in 2004, when Utada was first named #1. The next two years, aiko took the top spot while Utada slipped to #2, then #4. But now she has finally taken back the title, spurred by the success of her "Flavor of Life."

Music group EMI announced on Wednesday that "Flavor of Life" has become Japan's most successful digital single, with sales of over 7 million across all digital formats. The previous record holder is estimated to be O-Zone's "Dragostea Din Tei," which sold about 4 million units digitally in Japan.

According to EMI, "Flavor of Life" is also now the most successful single of all time in Japan, with more than 7.7 million in sales across all formats (digital and physical). Masato Shimon holds the previous record with his 1975 "Oyoge! Taiyaki-kun," which had total sales of over 4.5 million
