BY CHANDRA BAVIERA
Music that comes from the heart can be seen in different languages. The imagery projects the inspirational soul.

Beats of drums under the sound of audio, so MUSIC has definitely answered the question. This famous singing sensation, Utada Hikaru, sang a unique and incredible voice. From her typical heartbreak pop beat “First Love” to now upbeat “One Last Kiss,” her album titled ‘Bad Mode’ is more than just the eighth Japanese-language studio album. The Japanese lyrics translate into English to,
"I don't like being photographed
That's okay
For you have already imprinted in
The projector in my heart
I was pretending I don't miss you
Well, I guess that makes the two of us
Yearning for someone
Came hand in hand with heartache”
This Japanese American pop star made the world bop their heads and even dance in the latest generation of SONY and APPLE headphones.
