Congrats to Utada Hikaru whom crossed the 1 million mark with her 5th album “Heart Station” which is quite a huge feat given today’s music industry state and the fact downloads are taking a larger part of the market now. She still needs to actually sell another 150,000 plus too pass the million sales but if she does it, it’ll be first album for over two years to do so. Also her blog states she’s in the recording studio again – is it for a Japanese or English audience we wonder?
