PoshLife 16,998 Posted August 19, 2014 Share Posted August 19, 2014 I think I discovered something really cool about an Utada video, and I have nowhere else to share it so I'm sharing it here At the beginning of the video, the camera’s scrolling through a lot of clouds which kind of look like outer space; it then resolves into her eye, and the video goes from there. Watch the first 15 seconds: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ysL1DL8au0s There’s a movie called “Contact†from 1997, where the opening scene is very similar: the camera is scrolling through space, and it later becomes the main character’s eye. The opening scene is below - if you skip to 1:30, you can really see the similarity. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EWwhQB3TKXA The main character in the movie is listening to radio waves, trying to find evidence of aliens contacting earth. The theme of "Heart Station" is similar, in that she’s singing over the radio wondering if her lover will hear her. So between the similar concepts and the similar opening scene, I wonder if “Heart Station†is referencing that movie?? It would be very cool! I think it's possible because "Contact" is considered one of the best Sci-Fi movies of that era, so I wouldn't be surprised if somebody was inspired by it. There's no other reason for "Heart Station" to start that way. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think the vid might actually be referencing the movie, or at least its theme of trying to reach (or contact ) the seemingly impossible. In Jodie Foster's case, it was life outside Earth, and a lover in Utada's case. While different in terms of extremes, both are aiming for something that is apparently beyond them. Jodie Foster and Utada, two people that I thought would never be in the same sentence. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

PopReaper 2,231 Posted August 19, 2014 Share Posted August 19, 2014 I noticed that TaeMin's album is kinda like 'Mr. Mr.'. It has 3 great songs a.k.a The Holy Trinity (Mr. Mr., Goodbye, Europa / Ace, Danger, Pretty Boy), 2 songs that are good but not as good as the previously mentioned tracks (Wait A Minute, Soul / Experience, Wicked) and one slow ballad that is kinda meh (Back Hug / Play Me) Fun Fact: The K in KPop stands for "Kate Bush" Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
PoshLife 16,998 Posted August 19, 2014 Share Posted August 19, 2014 I'd switch Soul and Europa, to be honest. Soul is so much better than it gets credit for. Europa is like... a nice little thing, Soul is a jam. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
