I've actually never listened to Heart Station or Ultra Blue which is why I didn't suggest anything from them. Though, I have heard Passion and loved it. I'll give these two albums a listen later today/tomorrow.
I prefer Distance to Deep River because I like the more R&B-ish tracks on Distance. The only song on Distance I didn't like was Eternally. I don't care for Utada's ballads. Meanwhile, I don't like Tokyo Nights from Deep River and think Final Distance should have stayed a single only track.
And I thought Easy Breezy was one of the better Exodus songs outside of that one terrible, terrible lyric.
