Utada Hikaru has announced that she will be ending her hiatus and making her comeback to the music industry.
This was confirmed alongside with the confirmation that two new songs will air on Japanese TV. The 1st titled Hanataba wo Kimi ni will be the theme song for Toto Nee-chan, while the 2nd song is currently untitled but it will be used as the ending theme for NEWS ZERO.
To celebrate staff has launched an interesting project titled NEW-TURN Project. This site provides fans a chance to welcome her back by tying in a campaign with the hashtag “#おかえりHIKKI”.
Every time someone uses the hashtag a cherry blossom will bloom on the main page, and a portion of the proceeds of the campaign will go towards planting cherry blossom trees in areas affected by the recent East Japan earthquake.
The title speaks by itself. If you’re a fan of Japanese music it’s inevitable that you’ve heard songs from Hikaru at some time, so it’s incredible news since we’ll be able to enjoy more of her amazing singing.
What does the future hold in store for her? We’re not sure, but all we know is we’ll be enjoying more of Utada Hikaru’s amazing voice soon!
