- "Hikari" (Japanese: 光, "light") is a song recorded by Japanese–American recording artist Hikaru Utada for their fourth studio and third Japanese language album, Deep River (2002). It premiered on March 20, 2002, as the third single from the album in Japan. It was written and composed by Utada, whilst production and arrangement was handled by Utada, their father Teruzane Utada, and long-time collaborator Miyake Akira. The single, and a remix by Russell McNamara (under the alias PlanitB), was used as the official Japanese theme song for the 2002 action role-playing video game Kingdom Hearts, and appeared on its original soundtrack respectively. Musically, "Hikari" is a pop folk song. Lyrically, it is about mysteries in life and human activities. Upon its release, the track garnered positive reviews from music critics. Many critics highlighted the track as one of Utada's best singles, and commended their vocal abilities and songwriting. It was also successful in Japan, peaking at number one both on the Oricon Singles Chart and Tokyo Broadcasting System's (TBS) Count Down TV singles chart. It was certified platinum by the Recording Industry Association of Japan (RIAJ) for physical shipments of 800,000 units. An accompanying music video was shot by their then-husband, Kazuaki Kiriya; it features Utada washing dishes and drinking water. It was performed on some of her concert tours, including the Utada United and Wild Life tour. To promote the international formats of Kingdom Hearts, Utada re-recorded an English language version entitled "Simple & Clean". Both the original edit and remix version by PlanitB served as international theme songs. It did not appear on Utada's English studio album Exodus (2004), but the original version was included on their 2009 English studio album This Is the One. It was later released as an A-side 12-inch single with Utada's single "Colors" in 2003, and received positive reviews from most music critics. (en)

- Hikari (光? lett. "Luce") è un singolo di Hikaru Utada, il terzo estratto dal suo album Deep River, pubblicato il 20 marzo 2002. È il tema musicale dell'edizione giapponese dei videogiochi della Square (ora Square Enix) e Disney Interactive Kingdom Hearts, Kingdom Hearts: Chain of Memories, Kingdom Hearts Birth by Sleep e Kingdom Hearts Re:Coded. Per le edizioni occidentali dei giochi è stata invece utilizzata la versione in lingua inglese del brano, intitolata Simple and Clean. Benché i due brani condividano una melodia simile e lo stesso accompagnamento, il significato del testo cambia radicalmente nella versione in inglese. Utada ha dichiarato che non ha potuto dare lo stesso significato che voleva in Simple and Clean come aveva fatto in Hikari, quindi ha cambiato la melodia del ritornello in quello che aveva usato nel brano Uso Mitai na I Love You, presente nell'album Deep River. Utada è stata l'unica cantante che Tetsuya Nomura, regista di Kingdom Hearts, aveva in mente per il tema musicale di Kingdom Hearts. Sia Simple and Clean che il suo remix, Simple and Clean -PLANITb Remix-, sono stati in seguito pubblicati come lato B del singolo Colors. Nel dicembre 2010 Utada ha interpretato Hikari in due date del tour Wild Life. Il singolo è riuscito ad arrivare sino alla prima posizione della classifica Oricon dei singoli più venduti in Giappone. Sino ad agosto 2002 il singolo ha venduto 598 130 copie ed è rimasto in classifica per tredici settimane. Inoltre Hikari è la colonna sonora di un videogioco più venduta della storia in Giappone.

- «Hikari» (яп. 光 Хикари, свет) — песня японской поп-исполнительницы Хикару Утады из альбома . Музыку и японский текст написала сама Утада. Продюсерами выступили Акира Миякэ и отец певицы, . «Hikari» известна как заглавная песня большинства игр серии Kingdom Hearts. В англоязычных и прочих неяпонских версиях игр песня была переписана с нуля на английском и спета Утадой под названием «Simple & Clean». В музыке прослеживаются элементы поп-музыки, рок-музыки, также задействованы клавишные и электронные синтезаторы. У обеих песен есть ремикс в духе дискотечной музыки, который использован в качестве фоновой песни для открывающей заставки к игре. Слова песни посвящены лирической героине и тому, кого она любит. Утада испытывала сложности с написанием слова, поскольку ей показалось, что сама идея Kingdom Hearts и её сюжет «бездушные». «Simple & Clean» и «Hikari» получили хорошие оценки от музыкальных критиков, которые отмечали простоту мотива и качество исполнения песни. Кроме того, песню неоднократно называли одной из лучших вокальных песен в игровой индустрии. Песня была также популярна: в Японии она занимала верхние строчки чарта Oricon, а также дважды получала платиновую награду от Японской ассоциации звукозаписывающих компаний за преодолённый рубеж в 500 000 проданных копий.

- "I still vividly remember the promotional material for the release of Kingdom Hearts. The commercials that played on television featured the trademark song of the game, 'Simple and Clean' by Utada Hikaru. A lot of interest for the game was sparked by that song. The sounds behind Utada’s words alongside images of Disney characters grasped everyone’s attention. There was something special about this game, and everyone at the time could feel it." (en)
