  Utada Hikaru - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Utada Hikaru was born in New York City, New York to Japanese parents, who both had roots in the Japanese music industry: her father, Teruzane Utada, was a producer (who produced her records too), while her mother, Junko Utada, was an enka singer (she performed under the stage name "Keiko Fuji").
Cubic U (Utada Hikaru's pseudonym before becoming a superstar in Japan) released her debut single "Close to You", which was a remake of the Carpenter's song of the same name.
Utada returned to New York in 2000 after "For You / Time Limit" to attend Columbia University as a freshman, but left within the year to continue her activities within the Japanese music industry, as she thought that it was "easier than she expected".

Utada's first single for 2002, Hikari, is very well known in the west because it was the Japanese theme song for the Playstation game Kingdom Hearts (the English version was later released as a B-side on her COLORS single).
