[JuyAlone]

หรอคับ

[asykamir]

いや宇多田は天才てあらうよ。坂本龍一を凌駕してゐる。

[endoippei]

これは違うよなあ・・・宇多田に戦場のメリークリスマスはわから­ないよ

[xxDINOZgoRAWRAWRxx]

宇多田ヒカルは、このような偉大な芸術家です！

[menthol18]

14 misread dislike with dis i like

[Oilyhead]

Wowww, this vid brings many comment to me :D

If someone thinks that this song is her mistake.

I would say that sometimes it's good to see our favorite

artist make mistake.

[IceAngelxJ]

I wish the song wasn't named "Merry Christmas Mr. Lawrence" so the stupid fanboys would stop complaining that it "ruined" the original...even though she just sampled the tune...

[FkcnVina]

Heart Of Asia rip

[NikkoArai]

@AonaranMan wow is it that serious?? excuse us if some of us just like to enjoy a little music without all of the societal stigma attached. music is all subjective to interpretation. If you don't like this, you can listen to the original that is so "morally pure" to you exclusively and not be bothered with this at all. The original song will always be there, nothing like this will rip away its status of being an amazing piece of music. chill.

[theshineelover123]

I LOVE THIS SONG!!! XD BEST SONG IN MY LIFE! ♥

[MiyazakiTsuji]

yall need tuh tye your shoes, cuz yall trippin'. CRANK UP THE VOLUME! <3

[octagon79]

@AonaranMan hey Idiot, that soundtrack and that film are both part of pop-culture. What the fuck do you think Merry Christmas Mr Lawrence is, literature? It stars David Bowie and Ryuichi Sakamoto, both of which were amongst the biggest popstars int he world when the film was released. So, you fucking fail at being a snob and you fail at being a troll.

PS this song sucks

[SuperElleBaby]

@AonaranMan don't be such an elitist.... god you sound like an insufferable asshole

[Tikidew]

Not a fan of this style of music ..... Song reminds me of David Bowie, who is amazing.

[KousekizzZ]

I love Utada. but when I played this song on piano, my friend doesn't even know that this song is form Ryuichi Sakamoto. that's make me feel bad sometimes when I listening to her version : ( btw this is good in her style : D

sorry for my bad english skill.

[ausauspatpat]

is there anyone here like me that only knows about utada hikaru from the songs in kingdom hearts???

[BreatheLifexX]

I think this song is great in any form! No matter what version. :3

[Moo6630]

Merry christmas for all ^_^

[html159]

I always loved your music, utada, but not this time.

You just ruined a classic. Shame.

[TheNaCarter]

she is one of the few japanese female artists who i have great respect for. This song is awesome! I love the original wether it be called merry christmas mr. lawrence, or "戦場のメリークリスマス" I DONT CAre!! AND I love utada's music just as much! this song is EPIC!!!!!!!!!!!!. enough said lol (@~@)

[24narutolover]

I see that many people have a lot of negative comments for this song. The problem about this is if you dont like the song dont listen, but since many still do then just rate the song. Leave the commenting to us fans. And if you have a problem with that..... SHOVE IT.

[XCaoCow]

@24narutolover Wait, so you're saying that only people who like a song should comment on it? I can still comment on something even if I don't like it.

[24narutolover]

@XCaoCow Then go ahead and do it.

[omgWTFn00b]

@AonaranMan rofl

[MATxVP]

Every artist expresses from their perspective or perception-- even those which they attempt to mimic still filters through them. Whose else would she write from but her own? She only knows how to be herself and should not be anyone. If you don't like the song, so be it but along with the so called "the world is sinking" from selfishness, it also is sinking because of scrutiny and a lack of respect and acceptance. Agree to disagree and move on rather than be callous and bitter about it I say.

[peterkm23]

@AonaranMan oh, that's true, also hip hop, they only talk about themselves, no wonder why the world is sinking and people can't have a global vision of thins!

[Android92110]

This person just totally destroyed this song. Shame.

[XCaoCow]

@AonaranMan I agree. The melody is so good, but the lyrics completely turned me off from the song. The NYC NYC and chingaling parts are horrible. The song actually really sounds good but the lyrics are horrible.

[JazzRockablity]

sometime ppl should shut up. this song is awesome and if it wasnt for this I wouldnt have learned about the original, maybe hard to believe but sometimes pop artist can be a real person, not just a robot

[steroid36]

Complete and utter shit!

[mikafan1003]

I realised that why hikki stop performing for a while. She is just tired. She has been working for the music industry for 12 years since 15 years old. So she need a break. :)

[mikafan1003]

BTW I'm not saying she should not sing her song. I love her voice too. I don't know why she stop performing. Sales slump? If so it's not her fault. It's global economic slump. People have to buy CD and DVD more. :)

[sindhu19rev]

love it!

[mikafan1003]

@Oilyhead @MiyuuKiwi I think it's good thing that she write and sing about herself. We call it "art" and "artist". But if another person sang her song I think it might be cool. So I think she should make sing her songs to someone else. And continue art. :)

[Itami001]

@AonaranMan What do you want them to do? Write a song about you?! They write the music, they make the music, they sing it, they do everything for their art, why the hell should they write a song about someone else when it's easier to relate to yourself? 

[Oilyhead]

@AonaranMan What about "Great Pop"? I think Hikki uses this song because the song means something to her.I beleive that Hikki watch a lot of movies caz her grand father is a film producer and she just wants to do something from what she seen and listen.At least she's one of the great artist in my generation :D

[Bella01993]

i want that hoodie that utada is wearing =) its a cute hoodie =P

[mikafan1003]

She is really talented person as an arranger, songwriter. I bet she is also a talented producer. So she should produce a song for someone else not herself once if she stop performing as a singer for a while.

[Oilyhead]

@mikafan1003 But If I were a singer I do produce song for myself.Everytime I write my songs I do write them for myself. I think there are very much singer who wanted to be famous by produce music for the listener.However,wait&see when she came back

[MiyuuKiwi]

@mikafan1003 Who cares? As long as it sounds good to your ears, I don't understand why she should stop. And who is she going to write about? You? If she wants to write about herself, YOU certainly can't stop her.

[OerbaFunYang]

I need to know who Mr. Lawrence is!

[TENDONIN2]

@OerbaFunYang

I'm Mr. Lawrence. I (Hope). 彼女はとても素晴らしいです。

[msjulicious]

@TENDONIN2 lol

[kolack1985]

@OerbaFunYang Honestly I wish it was me :D

[nippondancing]

@OerbaFunYang then watch the film

[zulfadhlihamidi]

[linglingpeca]

lol



[mickeyd663]

This is such an addicting song hahaha!

[xTokyoxRebelx]

Sounds so similar. Something you would hear in Ghibli films...? Maybe AI's version is more what you would hear in Ghibli films, but were any of the versions in any Ghibli films? Cool song BTW!

[BottledFairie]

@t0nes08 I wouldn't say that too soon. Oilyhead makes a great point.

[himenootakudesu]

i love this song, the melody is so... full of feelings or sumthing like that, but the lyrics are so SHTOOPIT. sorry but i still like Utada^^

[RosaleeCarten99]

I LOVE mp3iffy it WORKS just google mp3iffy.

[supercala17]

Hm... The beginning strangely reminds me of Xion's theme from Kingdom Hearts 358/2 Days..... :D

[ArashiTheAssassin]

@supercala17 yeah you're right o_O

maybe it's because of the violin xD

[jazanime21]

this is so much better than that AI girl's version

[Af6ewq]

[winDragon79]

sad panda :(

[chostylish]

This song has meaning behind the lyrics. Please make sure that it's looked into. Utada has never done anything that's just random.

Love this song, I even remixed it. ^_^

[Oilyhead]

I really want to be there! but Hikki doesn't has a plan about Asian tour.

[chostylish]

Question...would you mind if i put my remix as a video response?

[Oilyhead]

Let do it:D

[chostylish]

Alright, done and done. Thanks

[SomedaysDreamersBC]

Hot track even still...

[Moominvalley]

Nice cover! but the lyrics could've been better...

[Oilyhead]

Yeah,I love the original,too.Because I play the guitar,Ryuichi is a good player.

I wish you opened your mind,atleast this song made many people want to listen the original version which they never heard before.

It sounds like EAST meets WEST :D

[toey2daria]

love your comment.

original version is really great but Utada version is nice too.

love this song!

[yanglor0890]

i heart her songs

[bukvithaya]

this is so NICE and the best remix of Merry Christmas Mr Lawrence

[Oilyhead]

This song is second single from Utada This is the one.

[TACHTIN4]

She is an American birth and American growth. and. was going to school to American School in Japan also in Japan.....

She is a very candid character and can speak English and Japanese.. accurately.

and...She has(and given a talent) a musicianship of a nature.

She naturally has the sense of rhythm for which R & B is late of a half battuta....

[ebc0118]

fucking awesome

[dgreatestone]

This is one of the most popular piece by Ryuichi Sakamoto... Nice one Utada!

[xXxMiKuKiSaxXx]

omgs this song is the absolute shiznitz !! lovein it all the X3

[RubieChian]

blooooooooody good!!!!!!!

[boredomisnevergood]

this song is awesome. XD

if you actually listen I swear some parts are random words thrown out there.

I mean, mp3 players?

But I love the chorus. "We're gonna oooaahh."

[hares1990]

omg i love it!! but the beginning of the song reminds me of another song... i just dont know which one!!!! :@:@ thats driving me crazy!

[ayu1978]

I think you are referring to either the original instrumental from Ryuichi Sakamoto or the techno remix from watergate.

[hares1990]

hahaah thanxx!! yeah i meant the intrumental of sakamoto!:D

[digitalchico]

@hares1990 u said the beggining of the song was driving u crazy coz it soudns familiar how about it sounds like a song from japan something like from Mulan? or the song my samurai?

[YohAsakura76]

where can I get the songs from Utada since I'm a German, you can tell me wen yes then write me a message ok thank

[cherriedpie]

the american release is in May.

[djnions]

if MCML is the next single released then the album will go platinum no doubt!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[dragonxsamo]

This is a pretty cool video!

At the risk of sounding spammish, I have to say

I've downloaded the whole album (This Is The One)

I posted all of the songs, so take a look at my channel.

again, sorry for being spammy. ;_;

[itsjustwhatever92]

this song is on my i-pod

i have played over and over and over

all day long

that mainstream R&B/Pop beat with the asian touch is pretty hot

i love all the other tracks, too!

[FinalWish7]

Ok, for real now. I am ADDICTED to this song. Every Utada album has one song on it that I absolutely CANNOT stop listening to. Last album was Prisoner of Love, and now this one... it is GENIUS. The lyrics may be kind of corny, but I really do love it.

[darknesswithinu]

i love hikkiiii!!!!! and this song ruless!! can't wait for the album! i have it preordered ready XD

[Oilyhead]

Me too. Listen all day all night.

[FinalWish7]

Im so pumped for this album!!!! Power of U! im being like 10 copppiess!!! i can not WAIT for the other tracksss!!!!!!!!!!! MASTERPIECE!
