"Talent"

I have decided that if my career as a teacher fails, I think I will try to make it big as a "Talent" in Japan. Apparently the standards for becoming a talent in Japan are even lower than they already are if you are a foreigner.

If you aren't sure what I'm talking about, then let's have a look at a current J-Pop "Talent", Hikaru Utada. Her video is above. Here are some sample lines from her song, Flavor of Life:

"I'm dreaming of the day of the harvest of fresh fruits"

"Words of invitation that are simply sweet are a sensationless poison"

"I honestly want to be happy when I think of the whiteness of snow that builds up"





Here are some photos that were taken in a recent shoot. I'm thinking about using one as the album cover for my debut album. Let me know what you think. Suggestions for album titles are also welcome.
