Music: Three Drama, Three OST, One Singer - Hikaru Utada

Honestly, I don't listen to Japanese songs that much... There is one song that was a big hit in 1982 which I still remember and love to listen until now, the song titled "Kokoro No Tomo" by Mayumi Itsuwa.

It was 3 Japanese Drama that I watched in the past few years with 3 nice Original Sound Track (OST) that attracted my attention. And, surprisingly, all those three nice songs was written, composed, and sung by one singer: Hikaru Utada. Wow... she is such a talented artist... almost all songs in her album were written, composed, and sung by her. I really admire that talent!!


First song, "First Love", OST of "Majo no Joken" or known as "Forbidden Love" in its English title. Quite interesting drama about 'against-all-odds' love story between teacher and her high school student...

Second song, "Prisoner of Love", OST of "Last Friends". Another interesting drama about complicated, strange, and unusual multi-angle love story between friends... I love the psychological side of each characters in the drama.

Third song, "Eternally", OST of "Innocent Love". A simple drama about power of love... on how someone who dedicated his love to someone who actually doesn't love him, but in the end he finally found that true love from someone else who can appreciate his dedicated and unconditional love... so sweet...
