J-pop mega star returns to the biggest hit of her career as an adult, with some help from a special musical partner from her past.
Hikaru Utada
Let’s go for a ride down memory lane with a new version of one of the singer’s biggest hits.
J-pop megastar’s new album is available for pre-order now, will include themes from Evangelion and To Your Eternity anime.
J-pop megastar returns to the central Japan mountain range with “Dare ni mo Iwanai” (“I Won’t Tell Anybody”).
Hikaru Utada’s anniversary cover album is out next week, and to celebrate, Evangelion co-director Kazuya Tsurumaki has made this music video for the Japanese American artist’s song ‘Beautiful World’.
The resulting video is made of beautifully spliced-together Evangelion clips, and it fits Utada’s track perfectly.
