The Evergreen: Utada Hikaru's First Love
Assalamualaikum
Lagu penyanyi Jepun, Utada Hikaru, First Love dah lama release sejak 1999 lagi. Kalau dihitung dengan tahun 2026, dah 27 tahun. Aku pulak start dengar lagi ni tahun 2001? 2002? Definitely lepas dah ada komputer sendiri kat rumah dan dah pasang TM dial-up 1515. And this song was so popular when I was doing my undegrad studies! Japanese song (j-Pop) dan drama series berlambak orang share kat network UNITEN tu.
Tapi pada tahun 2023, Netflix release Japanese Series dengan tajuk "First Love" juga. Series ni aku layan kat Netflix sebab tiba-tiba dia dok promo dan background music dia pakai lagu Utada Hikaru ni lah. Cerita dia pasal seorang ni dia macam lupa ingatan sikit, jadi bila jumpa first love dia pun, dia tak ingat apa yang depa dah pernah lalui macam tu. Boleh la search Netflix kalau nak tengok (trailer: sini).
Buttt.... bukan saja-saja nak promote cerita kat Netflix tu... sebenarnya nak share satu version yang I came across semalam masa layan youtube. Version channel Youtube "The First Take". Version ni bagi aku la agak unik dan menampakkan kekuatan vokal Utada Hikaru yang tak degrade pun walaupun dah berusia. Usia dia kalau x silap sekarang dalam 43 tahun la kut pada 2026 ni, sebab masa 1999 tu umur dia baru 15 tahun.
Lagu berusia 27 tahun di blog yang berusia 24 tahun, layankan versi The First Take:
Lirik:
