Utada stinks up the joint on The early morning show

Hikaru Utada made an appearance on The early morning show and... well. I'll let you watch for yourselves and share your thoughts...



Some of you thought her last performance of "Come back to me" was bad. It wasn't at all. THIS right here was BAD! I cringed when I watched it. I couldn't even watch the whole thing because her off vocals were making my ears ring. Awful. One of the worst Hikaru Utada performances I've seen. Her performance of "Merry Christmas - FYI" was better, but not much so. If I'd heard this performance of "Merry Christmas - FYI" before hearing the album version, I wouldn't have thought much of the song. She ruined the entire thing. She was trying to hard to sing and projecting too much, and stripped away the laid back feel of the song completely.

The performances were not a good showcase of her or her music at all. Yeah, it was early in the morning and her voice was hoarse and shit. But after 10 years you'd think she'd be up on this by now and have methods for prepping herself for the early mornings. Drink some honey and lemon to help the voice, have something to eat to get the energy levels up, have a shower with tea tree shower gel. Something! This is not acceptable.

I also wasn't feeling that shapeless shit she was wearing. The purple and the yellow just made her legs look really pale. And she could've at least worn some purple or yellow pumps to match. C'mon Hikaru, fix up!
