[@AimHighToday]

Such a beautiful voice. This the best recording other than by Connie Francis. Nishida Hikaru, born August 16, 1972) is a Japanese pop singer and actress. She was born in Fujisawa, Kanagawa Prefecture, Japan, and made her singing debut with the release of the single Fifteen on 6 April 1988, named after her age at the time. Hikaru is well known for her ability to speak English. She was born in Kanagawa Prefecture but her family quickly moved to the United States, where she attended Clairbourn School in San Gabriel, California near Los Angeles. She lived there for 12 years, and she has some trouble understanding Japanese poetry due to her time away from Japan. She graduated from the American School in Japan in 1990, after which she attended Sophia University where she majored in comparative history of Japan and China. She enjoys writing poetry, basket weaving, learning Spanish and the flute.

[@philomenapeterson1790]

OMG I just love this song. She sings it so well. Thanks for sharing. I have loved this song for as long as I can remember. Never tire of it. I'm 65 now ... LOL

[@akkiofouzjita]

映像がなければ普通に懐かしの海外アーティストが歌ってるのかと思うほど素晴らしい映画と歌唱力。西田ひかるの歌手としてのレベルの高さに驚いた！

[@user-kp1vx3un2m]

西田ひかるも　歌もルックスも素敵ですね😃

[@GM8101PHX]

This woman Nishida Hikaru is from Japan and performs professionally, she is married although she looks to be too young for marriage. I think she is in her young 20's. Very clear and smooth voice. She lived in the United States, assuming she was schooled here as well. She commands this song that was written well before she was born. Awesome singing and she is beautiful as well!!

[@stevenmurata4392]

Gregory Miller I believe she is about 44 now. Born in Japan but lived in LA till early teens.

[@philomenapeterson1790]

Gregory Miller. Thank you. She's so lovely and sings it so well. Beautiful woman too

[@bernarda658]

There is several good things about this video, one is they don't have dancers in the video like many others. It's do distracting that it doesn't focus on the singer.

[@richiemclaughlin6127]
