MISIA Single and Album

R&B singer MISIA announced the release of a new single, Hoshi no you ni..., for December 16th, as well as a new album called JUST BALLADE for the same day.

Hoshi no you ni... was chosen to be used as the main theme song for the newest Ultraman film "Daikaijuu Battle Ultra Ginga Densetsu THE MOVIE", set to debut in theaters on December 12th. The b-side Boku no kimochi has been used as the ending theme for Nihon TV variety show "Himitsu no Kenmin SHOW".

The instrumental counterpart to Hoshi no you ni... and a remix version of it, featuring voice samples of Ultraman and the movie's monster, as well as chaotic sound effects, will also be included on the single. Its limited edition will come with a big box of special goods, while the regular version will feature both MISIA and Ultraman on the jacket artwork.

Lastly, JUST BALLADE, her ninth original album, will drop approximately two years after her latest full-length work, Eighth World. It is expected to include Hoshi no you ni..., Boku no kimochi, her latest double A-side single Ginga / Itsumademo and several other songs for a total of 13 tracks.
