Charlie Puth has debuted new single ‘Home' featuring Hikaru Utada, taken from his upcoming fourth studio album “Whatever's Clever!”.
‘Home' features an official music video directed by Hunter Moreno and follows previous releases ‘Changes', ‘Beat Yourself Up' and ‘Cry' featuring Kenny G. Watch the music video below:
“'Home' was written for my best friend, wife and soon to be mother of our first child. Brooke has changed my life for the better and given me a whole new perspective on why and where I belong in this world. Everything makes sense with her” Puth continues “and to have the honor of one of my favorite artists, Hikaru Utada featuring on this song with me, is a true gift. She gives the song a depth and beauty that I’m so grateful for. She is incredible! I hope you all enjoy is as much as I did making it.”
Hikaru Utada shares, “as a fellow songwriter and music listener, it was obvious to me when I first heard the demo of ‘Home' that this is a deeply personal song for Charlie that comes straight from his heart. It was a joy to collaborate with such a gifted musician who wears his love of music on his sleeve… and a very fun challenge to contribute Japanese lyrics to an English song, from creating rhyme in languages that have such different phonetics, to being surprised by Charlie’s beautiful Japanese chorus work. I hope everyone enjoys this bilingual song and its universal message.”
Puth embarks on his “Whatever's Clever! World Tour” starting on 22nd April at Viejas Arena in San Diego. In June and July he will arrive in Europe for a series of dates.
