Here comes back the Sun, and here comes the Woot!
Charice comes back to Japan, and this time with a new exciting story with it.

She was commisioned to sing a new song "Louder" for FujiTV's Mezamashi TV this Spring which is still going on air for the next half year or so at least. 

And this time, she lent her voice for a Japanese TV drama with lots of "firsts" for her.

She was this time commisioned to sing theme song for NTV (Nihon TV Network)'s new drama "The Bull Doctor"(Official Web)(Official Twitter). This marks the first time for Charice to sing a new song for drama here in Japan.Producer of The Bull Doctor was so impressed by Charice's voice, and asked her to sing a theme song for the drama, which is reportedly starting next month.

The Bull Doctor will be starring a number of famous actors including Makiko Esumi, Goro Inagaki from the famous group SMAP, Satomi Ishihara, and others. Esumi will play a specialist in forensic medicine, tries to solve tough criminal cases. Ishihara will play a detective against Esumi, Inagaki will play another specialist in forensic medicine and with a mysterious backgroud.

The theme song, lyrics by Seiji Hiratoko, music by Yusuke Tanaka (AKB48, Ikinomo Gakari, YUKI, Mika Nakashima) arranged by Akimitsu Honma (Ikimono Gakari, Porno Grafitti, Ayumi Hamasaki) (This is the very first a Japanese writer contributes a song for Charice), and written exclusively for the drama is called "Far As The Sky", will be available as "Chaku uta" mobille download from Featured Phones and Smartphones except the iPhone (what a..) on July 6th. No plan for the release at iTunes, Amazon, or any package release haven't been announced.

Charice says,

・This song has full of inspiration, tensions to attractions..it has a clear message that even when you tend to get down by encountering obstacles, difficulties in life, there IS always a hope right there.

・Please think of this song as it's for your loving family, friends, and all the people you dearly love. This song will send people a lot of inspirations so I'd like as many people as can listen to this song. And, as was for me too, the song will send you a lot of emphathies too. And, I would like to dedicated this song to all of the Japanese people.

・My heart is breaking and aching by the devastatingly disastrous what has happend to Japan since March 11. And because of that, I wanted to dedicate this song to Japanese people. Please remember to feel that this is not the end of the world, there still are hopes around, and there will come "tomorrow". You all can overcome this, win this. And please remember we all have all of our support for you.

Esumi states,                                                   

・The amazingly powerful, crystal clear voice of Charice is truly miraculous, or is a miracle itself. The vision and the message of the drama does match her straight forward, energetic and positive way of her life pursueing her visions and dreams, hence with this wonderful song she brought, it makes the drama truly completely a great story. I am so impressed and moved!

The Bull Doctor will start next month, and will air every Wednesday starting at 10pm Japan time. Sunshine under the moonlight :)

Since the news just broke, more updates will be expected so please free and check back this place, and stay tuned at the CharMing Report. :)

UPDATE : Warner Music Japan posted their annoucement at their official web just before I posted this original. fantasic pic that was, wasn't it?
Kazuya Toda, producer of The Bull Doctor, has made a statement on Charice.

Mr.Toda says,

・It was shocking when I first heard Charice's songs. I was so fascinated by her voice which is so stretching and powerful, and the experience got me reaching her and asking for a song. I have this strong confidence and conviction of my heart that a message of the humanism this drama will spin, and emotions Charice will bring to this drama will make a fantastic collaboration. 

It is still unknown if Charice would be singing in English or Japanese. I guess many of her fans recall about Celine Dion performing theme song "To Love You More" for Japanese drama 15 years ago, but do you remember Celine also had performed other theme song for other Japanese drama which David Foster was involved with for scoring music called "Eve"? She did this. Cha can do it too.
