Tomodachi (ともだち, lit. 'Friends') is a song recorded by Japanese-American singer-songwriter Utada Hikaru,featuring Nariaki Obukuro from her sixth Japanese studio album, Fantôme (2016). It was written by Utada herself, while its production was done by her, her father Utada Teruzane and her long-time collaborator Miyake Akira. 'Tomodachi' is a R&B and bossa nova pop which features both singers singing passionately over a repeated acoustic guitar performed by Tanaka Yoshito. Lyrically, it talks about a homosexual person who accidentally fell in love with his/her friend. It was acclaimed by music critics who praised both singer's vocals.

Background[edit]

Tomodachi Life is compatible with Citra. The game will boot and run, with minor stuttering in some segments. So far the Mii’s dialogue cuts short and skips to the next line.
