Song Flavor of life by Utada Hikaru

Remember this song while updating entry on song Trauma by Ayumi Hamasaki. Where this song is used in Japan series Hana Yori Dango [1].

A Japanese live-action series Hana Yori Dango aired from 2005 to 2007 (and was followed by a 2008 film) [2,3].

The 45 second download of the ballad version of "Flavor Of Life" was released as a ring tone on January 6, 2007 on Chaku-Uta. The song debuted at number 14 the Chaku-Uta ring tone download chart, a great feat for one of the largest download stores in Japan. For reference, the main theme song from Hana Yori Dango 2, Arashi's "Love So Sweet", debuted at number 7 [4, 5].

Until then, have fun enjoying good old song.
