[Kingdom Hearts] Simple & Clean / Hikari【Ashe】 

How the hell are you not famous with that voice?

The feel when you wish Kingdom Hearts' plot was still as simple and clean as this track. Great cover.

You know, a bilingual cover like this really fits an "East meets West" source like Kingdom Hearts.

I was NOT prepared to hear you sing in Japanese. I audibly gasped.

When you walk away You don't hear me say, "Please, oh baby, don't go." Simple and clean is the way that you're making me feel tonight It's hard to let it go You're giving me too many things Lately, you're all I need. You smiled at me and said, "Don't get me wrong, I love you, But does that mean I have to meet your father?" When we are older you'll understand What I meant when I said, "No, I don't think life is quite that simple" Donna toki datte Zutto futari de Donna toki datte Soba ni iru kara kimi to iu hikari ga watashi o mitsukeru Mayonaka ni Urusai Toori ni Haitte Unmei no Kamen o tore Sakiyomi no shisugi nante Imi no nai koto wa yamete Kyou wa oishii mono o tabeyou yo Mirai wa zutto saki da yo Boku ni mo wakaranaki When you walk away You don't hear me say please Oh baby, don't go Simple and clean is the way that you're making me feel tonight It's hard to let it go Hold me, Whatever lies beyond this morning Is a little later on Regardless of warnings the future doesn't scare me at all Nothing's like before When you walk away You don't hear me say please Oh baby, don't go Simple and clean is the way that you're making me feel tonight It's hard to let it go Hold me, Whatever lies beyond this morning Is a little later on Regardless of warnings the future doesn't scare me at all Nothing's like before Hold me, Whatever lies beyond this morning Is a little later on Regardless of warnings the future doesn't scare me at all Nothing's like before

as soon as he starting singing in Japanese i just n u t

30 seconds and already in love, time to break the replay button

First second of hearing his voice... I think I melted

Way to do justice to such a great song

THE SINGING IN JAPANESE HHHNNNNNGGGG

the nostalgia is too strong 😩😩😩😭😭😭 #mychildhood #memories kingdom heart's sound tracks are all my all time favorite songs but simple & clean & sanctuary will always have a #1 special place in my heart 😌💖

The nostalgia hit me right at the feels! It's so beautiful I'm crying 😭 ❤️

I remember not liking the song as a kid, but I love it now and find it inspiring. I think it's because I see the lyrics in a new context in between learning Utada is "not straight", dealing with being in a long term relationship for the first time, and really being uncertain and scared about the futured. Anyway, thanks for the cover. I enjoyed it. Mixing the English and Japanese lyrics was pretty interesting and I think it worked well.

Ashe singing a song from my favorite thing in the world. I can die happy.

I LOVE THIS SO MUCH ❤️✨

ok man, ive been following you for sooooo long and more often i tend to click videos if i recognize the song names, i just have so much in my sub boxes i cant get to everything. but goddamn its so crazy to be following you for so long and remember what you sounded like a few years ago versus this brand new cover. youve always been good, but youve really improved over these years that ive been subbed to you.

It took a long time but it has finally happened!

voice 10/10 flawless beauty

Literally crying

THIS IS MY NEW FAVORITE COVER OF SIMPLE AND CLEAN I ADORE KH AND WITH THIS ITS LIKE OML I LOVE YOU

Me rn: "...the best thing I never knew I needed..."

Here I am checking out Ashe again after a few years and I'm so surprised at how much better his vocal technique and quality of sound is. His pitches are a lot more accurate and his voice has more power. His vibrato has always been nice but it's more controlled now. I'm so proud of him!!

Ashe has a voice of a god♡ but can we give some props to the person playing the guitar with him??? I swear the way the guitar sounds is beautiful and the way they blend is heaven to the ears❤

i've never clicked a notification so fast i LOVE KH AND I LOVE THIS SONG AND I LOVE YOU

having herd the full version of both these songs in both English and Japanese this combo made me super happy

Probably one of the most well executed and beautiful versions of this song that I've ever heard. Your voice is the embodiment of a majestic unicorn. Just sing all the time, your voice is freaking gorgeous and unique!

HHnnnggggg I sung along with this. Couldn't help it. I saw it and fanboy was juat everywhere.

I nearly cried once you started singing in Japanese. It hit me so hard in the heart. Considering I was already feeling the music in me, I wasn't expecting it.

Ahh this song brings back so many good memories, life was so much simpler back then.
