Hikaru Utada - Chikai (Live | English sub)

My girl Utada divorced twice and still thought to make a badass song about love. I LOVE HER. LIKE SHE DIDNT HAVE TO GO HARD BUT HERE SHE IS

Warning: Using this song for your wedding could result in you vanishing on the spot just as you're about to say 'I do'.

"This is not a promise but an oath." Ok that's too romantic.

She deserves to perform at the Tokyo Olympics !!!!!! This is so beautiful.

She only got more beautiful with age

The Japanese lyrics are so much more endearing

Wonder how many people are going to use this as their wedding song.

When comparing the English to the Japanese, I find the Japanese to be more triumphant than the English, as if two love birds finally professed their love and made the next step. The English, on the other hand, has a more bittersweet fell. Both have their merits.

She sings beautifully (obviously), but her writing stands out more for me in this song, the lyrics are truly beyond description...she makes love sound so easy, when in fact most people can't communicate at a personal level (we mistake words to mean more than they do, when in fact the action is a lot harder to do)

The fact that she make makes multiple versions of her songs lyrics included shows her dedication as an artist. She is definitely one of the best.

Really, how beautiful Utada Hikaru can be?? Actually what is she ??? A Goddess or something???

This is truly an oath

You don't know a singer's talent til you hear them live... That was amazing and it brought tears to my eyes

It sounds exactly like the studio recording. That’s talent

Hikaru Utada is Japan's once and future Queen. The ultimate diva of the stage. She is one of the very few singers and musicians with real talent in this word -- to actually get a shot. The most talented singers range wise are usually opera and classic singers. They have fallen out of the mainstream lately, but HIkaru is one of the few that can sing that style and also do pop. Her range in scale is matched by her range in genres. I've seen her properly execute Rock and roll singing, Pop, R&B, Classical, and Opera with Harps and violins. She is fascinating. I've never seen another Artist do so many different styles of music well. The fact she is focusing more on classical singing now makes her the #1 candidate for opening the Tokyo olympics for sure.

I dont know why, but literally everything about her screams beauty and grace in this performance and all her songs. It's beyond a superficial and objective beauty, more than just a surface level, but you can really feel that her soul is also ethereally beautiful. It's like a moment that goes on for a lifetime, the swaying of a vibrant cherry blossom tree as springtime enters its zenith, or the sun rising over the horizon after a particularly stormy night. Its a terrifying beauty, because you never want it to end...

its feels like Riku perspective ;)

i really like how they made this the song playing at the end of the ending Scene of kh3...the japanese lyrics make much more sense in consideration of what happens in the last few seconds of the ending….this is a masterpiece <3

Starts crying again cause of the KH3 ending tied in with the lyrics

- Does she have the best voice? - No, she doesn't - Why do you love her? - Because I'm in tears !!!
