Impressive, gorgeous rendition of this classic song! When I served in Japan, I was impressed by the love that Japanese people had for American Golden Rock 'n Roll era hits and by the quality of the recordings (remastering) that Japanese radio industry were creating. Thank you for posting, Ciao, L
@@stevenmeyer9674 This song has been coved by many people , but original was Joni Mitchell Buffy Saint Marie was asked to put a new LP together with her songs the only song on the LP that was not hers was the Circle Game and that was the song they picked to release as a single at that time , which of course became a big hit for her , and I do agree i like her version better .
Now that I've heard it, I slightly prefer the Joni Mitchell original, but I do like everything about Nishida Hikaru, including her beautiful mezzo-soprano voice.
Hikaru Nishida was born in Japan in 1972 but moved to Los Angeles, California with her family in 1973 when her father was transferred there by his electrical equipment firm. There, she attended Clairbourn School in San Gabriel. Nishida visited Japan during her summer and winter vacations. In 1985, Nishida's family moved back to Japan, where she attended the American School in Japan until her graduation in 1990. She then attended Sophia University and graduated in 1994, with a major in comparative history of Japan and China.
Agnes Chan copied Michell`s version but Nishida is close to Buffy Saint Marie`s version which I lke more because its expresses the message of song much better way.
It;s very curious. She was brought up in California and normally sings with an American accent, but here she emphasizes her t's, English-style. I love her voice - mezzo-soprano?
That Smile - Amazing. Brightens up the whole world and beautiful as well
Her eyes,her smile and her voice is nothing but beautiful, no more to say.
She has the most natural smile... so so sweet.
Interesting version. Nice to see the 60's music living on.
Yes, but Joni Mitchell wrote the song in the '60s.

Yes, when they do something, the Japanese like to do it right.
Also old Levi's jeans. they luv them!
西田ひかるがこんなに歌が上手いとは知らなかった❗
Her charming looks and crystal clear lovely voice along with her hand jesters and smile makes this Joni Mitchell song come alive.
Bravo! Wonderful version of The Circle Game.
What a pretty, clear voice.
Yes, she is the only one, she have great personality and she have nice voice
Her smile could light up Tokyo.
Agree 100%

学生運動が私達の高校まで波及して先輩(女性)し二人して授業を抜け出して

そして帰り際、先輩が
(私は、就職出来無いけど
しっかり勉強して差別の無い世の中にするんやで)って言われました
60年前の話です
先輩は元気で、おられるでしょうか🩸
I love this song. Really lovely.
Wonderful I have to say I think this is the best I have heard anybody sing this song.
I prefer the original recording by Buffy Saint Marie.

She is almost too cute for words.
Have to agree with you!
Wonderful
いちご白書、観ました
高校生だったのでよく分からなかったけど
この主題歌は覚えてます
懐かしいです
The Strawberry statement.
光ちゃんの最高のパフォーマンス
Nishida Hikaru. Never heard the song before, though. Very nice.
Now that I've heard it, I slightly prefer the Joni Mitchell original, but I do like everything about Nishida Hikaru, including her beautiful mezzo-soprano voice.
Great voice and that smile
She can sing any prose.
いちご白書の挿入歌ですけど、アグネス・チャンさんや西田ひかるさんが歌ってもとても良いですね🎵曲を作ったのは幼い頃にポリオになり左手の握力が弱くて仕方なくギターの変則チューニングをしたカナダ出身のジョニミッチェルさんです😉とても心地よく聞けます🎵
Que maravilha!
TOP OF THE WORLD 짱!!!
Like your song
so pretty....

Oh. wow! I didn't know that until I googled her name.
Sweet.
Awesome cover

Actually Agnes Chan did not copy Michell's version. It's totally different from the backing track to the vocal line.
Existentialism redux.
she is mount everst
Wow 🌹❤️🌷👍
Che sorriso meraviglioso
彼女は素晴らしい声を持っています
smile 😊
I CANOT GET OVER HOW PRETTY SHE IS
お上手。
Nice version

soprano definitely
노래실력도 엄청나지만 100만불짜리 미소를 지닌 여성이네요
WOW I LOVE TO SPEND THE REST OF MY DAYS WITH HER
當時39歲的她看起來還很年輕
i have not seen angel in my life but after seeig her i got a confirmation she is a real angel
I wonder if Americans sing any popular Chines/Asian songs?
👌
i had a big crush on her!
Nice version
Far better than the Joni Mitchel version but Buffy St Marie is still the best performer/interpreter of this song in my opinion.
Nobody does Joni better than Joni, it's like nobody does Dylan better than Dylan.
joni mitchell is not easy...
anyway i love this one
Who play this music?
Yes please, i would
quem canta essa musica?
好令女
What is her name?
ТАРАНТИНО?
Not Joni Mitchel... BUFFY SAINT MARIE
容姿抜群、話も上手い、ただ楽曲に恵まれなかったねが残念。
I am not a guy with "yellow fever", but I have to say that there are a lot of beautiful Asian girls in the world.
way to slaughter an iconic song.......
GotMeDaBlues ?
+GotMeDaBlues She did a nice job with it. Lighten up.
GotMeDaBlues You’re crazy!!!!
SHE DID NOT MAKE THIS SONG ;( Joni michelle did this sounds good but Joni mitchele is the original singer
不要出賣日本，日本不是妳一個人的。
彼女が英語を話せるように、私も日本語を話せたらいいのにと思います
Beautiful!!!
