International pop sensation Charice Pempengco was chosen by a Japanese producer to sing the theme song of a television series in Japan. “Far as the Sky” is an inspirational piece for “Bull Doctor,” a mystery/crime drama top billed by two famous Japanese actresses, Esumi Makiko and Ishihara Satomi.
Charicemania.com posted that its producer, Kayuza Toda, has personally chosen Charice to sing “Far as the Sky”.
“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 out to her and asking for a song. I have this strong confidence and conviction in my heart that the message of humanism this drama will give, and the emotions that Charice will bring to this drama, will make a fantastic collaboration,” Toda said, as translated by Harry Yasu Clark of Warner Music Japan.
According to Clark, Charice said the song sends a clear message that in life there's hope inspite of challenges and trials.
“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 hope,” the Filipina singer reportedly said.
Charice dedicates “Far as the Sky” to the Japanese people.
“My heart is breaking and aching because of the devastatingly disastrous event that has happened to Japan last March 11 and because of that, I want to dedicate this song to the Japanese people,” she said.
“Please remember that this is not the end of the world, there is still hope, and there will come a ‘tomorrow’, Charice added, “You all can overcome this, and win this. And please remember we have given all of our support to you.”
