Today i will tell you one of my favorite singers. Her name is Utada Hikaru also known as Hikki and was born 19th January 1983 in New York to her Japanese parents. Bot of them were in the music industry. Her father was a producer and her mother a singer.
And interesting thing about her name is, that Hikaru means “to shine”. Also he had a artist name as Cubic U when she made her first album at the age of 12 in 1996.
Hikaru Utada, is a third culture singer-songwriter, arranger and record producer in Japan and the US. She is well-known internationally for her two theme song contributions to Square Enix's Kingdom Hearts video game series.
Utada's first official Japanese album First Love became the best-selling album of all time in Japan with over 7.65 million copies sold to date in Japan alone (10.056 million worldwide to date), cementing her status in the music industry in Japan.
In 2007, her single "Flavor of Life" reached #2 in worldwide digital download single sales with over 7.2 million download (the only non-American artist to hold such a distinction), and she sold a total of 12 million digital ringtones and songs in that same year, making her the first artist ever to have this many digital sales in a year's time.
she’s allready married.
She’s married to Kazuaki Kiriya a film director and photographer.
This is one of my favorite songs....
Utada Hikaru - Fly Me To The Moon
Poets often use many words
To say a simple thing
But it takes thought and time and rhyme
To make a poem sing
With music and words I'll be playin'
For you, I have written a song
To be sure that you know what I'm sayin'
I'll translate as I go along
Fly me to the moon
And let me play among the stars
Won't you let me see what spring
Is like on Jupiter and Mars
In other words, hold my hand
In other words, darling, kiss me
Fill my heart with song
And let me sing forever more
'Cause you are all I long for
All I worship and adore
In other words, please be true
In other words, I love you
In other words, please be true
(Please be true, I just want you to be true)
In other words, yeah yeah yeah yeah,
I love you
(I love you, I love you)
Oh oh
C'mon, just take me to the moon and back
Da da da da da da
Da da da da da yeah
