Utada Hikaru - Deep River [album]


I think that this is Hikki's strongest album. The entire CD flows from the beginning to the end.

Many of the fan favorites are on this album, and it's no surprise many call this effort their favorite of her releases.


A slew popular singles (Sakura Drops, traveling, Deep River, Final Distance, and Hikari) helped make this album a best seller.

The booklet contained some of the most beautiful photographs of Hikki we've seen yet! Ultra Blue photographs don't hold a candle to the artistic fine art portraits of Deep River. The images are so stoic and strong...they are just breathtakingly beautiful.

Everything that I complain about other artists and albums are not found in this one. Although some tracks are as polished as those released as singles, they hold their own to make this album a worthy listen.
