Hikaru Utada’s famous and popular songs

Let me introduce some songs by Hikaru Utada, a singer-songwriter who made her debut at the young age of 15.

She abruptly announced a hiatus from artistic activities in 2010, calling it a period of “human activities,” but resumed her work as an artist in 2016.

Utada is the daughter of enka singer Keiko Fuji and was born and raised in the United States.

On television she comes across as lighthearted and humorous, but while attending school in the U.S.

she reportedly skipped grades, and later enrolled at the prestigious Columbia University.

Easy BreezyUtada Hikaru

This is the only track released as a single from the album Exodus, with which she debuted in the U.S.

under the name Utada.

Although called a single, it was released as a DVD single.

It was also used in a Nintendo DS commercial, so it was a song people heard often.

While recording this album—specifically while laying down vocals for this track—Utada bought a new microphone, which is why the lyrics include references to a mic.

You’ll be captivated by the vivid turns of phrase.

Its worldview, which evokes a cosmic scale, offers a perspective that looks at human endeavors from above.
