Square has released details about the English theme of Kingdom Hearts. The song, which was recorded by Japanese singing sensation Utada Hikaru, will be entitled Simple and Clean, an english version of the japanese theme, Hikari.
Kingdom Heart's game director, Tetsuya Nomura was quoted saying, "Utada is the only artist I envisioned singing the theme song for Kingdom Hearts"; "Her music has moved millions of fans, and I was absolutely thrilled when she agreed to contribute to this project. I see her as an icon for young artists and she also proves that music transcends national and language barriers." The song lyrics were penned by Utada Hikaru herself.
900,000 copies of the Hikari single was sold in Japan when it was released. Hopefully, the English single will sell well when it's released too.
Another Kindom Hearts update:
Kingdom Hearts has yet to be released in the US and Square is already planning to relese a "Final Mix" version in Japan. This new japanese version of the game will contain all of the extra characters, features, and English voice acting from the U.S. version of Kingdom Hearts.
The game is expected to hit stores in Japan this winter.
