Fantôme

Fantôme is the sixth Japanese studio album by Japanese-American singer-songwriter Hikaru Utada, released on September 28, 2016. Although Utada had announced an indefinite hiatus from the public eye in August 2010, they continued writing and composing material with Teruzane Utada and Akira Miyake. Musically, Fantôme contains a collection of tracks that utilize acoustic and stripped-down instrumentations, alongside influences of pop, electronic, and R&B music. The lyrical content delves into themes of grief, sadness, love, and death—mostly influenced by the death of their mother, their second marriage, and the birth of their son in 2015. Fantôme was a commercial success in Japan, reaching number one on the weekly Oricon Albums Chart with sales of over 253,000 units, becoming their eighth consecutive domestic number-one album. It additionally topped the US World Albums chart and has sold over a million copies worldwide. It won various awards, including Album of the Year at the Japan Record Awards and the Grand Prix prize at the CD Shop Awards.
