Nakashima Mika and Kato Miliyah to release collaboration single

Nakashima Mika and Kato Miliyah are releasing a collaboration single, titled "Fighter", on June 4.

"Fighter" will be used as the theme song for the Japanese-dubbed version of 'The Amazing Spider-Man 2' that's scheduled to open in theatres on April 25. It's a powerful rock number that's written by Nakashima and Kato, composed by Kato, and arranged by ☆Taku Takahashi (m-flo).

The single will also include "Fighter (Tachytelic World Cup Brazil 2014 Remix)", a remix of "Fighter" interlaced with samba rhythm. This will serve as the official song for '2014 FIFA World Cup' and will also be included in the "2014 FIFA World Cup Brazil Official Album", which will be released on May 21.

Nakashima and Kato hit it off because of their similar taste in makeup and fashion. They grew more friendly with each other, which resulted in this collaboration. Nakashima commented on the collaboration, "I was uneasy as this was my first collaboration single, but I respected her talents, and I feel very honored to have collaborated with her."

Regarding the song, Kato said, "I'm absolutely honoured to write the song for the world-famous movie 'The Amazing Spider-Man 2'! I wrote this song while imagining Spider Man, who is a cool yet pained 'Fighter'."

The single will be available in a "Mika Edition" and "Miliyah Edition". Both versions will come with a new song called "Gift" as the coupling track. In addition, the "Mika Edition" will include a "Miliyah LESS" version of "Fighter", and the "Miliyah Edition" will include a "Mika LESS" edition of "Fighter".

omg ok for Fighter to be used in The Amazing Spider-Man 2 in Japan , I'm sure it's going to be something awesome , since SPYAIR provided the theme song for the 1st movie

But yeah this's going to be something to look out for super big time !

[Surreal17]

can't wait!

[visionfactory]

Mika looks great, Milliyah horse Kato looks like a friggin' zombie

[Kumichan]

I think they're switch each other style. Miliyah outfit, make-up and hairstyle are so Mika-ish and Mika is so chic/fashionable like Miliyah style.

I do like the preview of the song but not crazy about it. Hope it sounds better in full.

Wasn't expecting this collab lol

[Benikari47]

Just did my own cover for the single, i'm so excited!

[adantatu2]

I didn't know they are friends

I'm dying!!!

I'm also surprised by their friendship. This makes me want to get back into Mika. I haven't followed her since... Voice!

[ILoveGeniuses]

I hope I dont sound offeensive in anyway but I'm never surprised by this type of friendship.. I've always found most Asian women I meet to begin talking for what seems like ages whenever they meet each other. Even to me, majority I meet are extremely talkative in a very friendly manner. I've honestly just always assumed it had partly to do with the culture and how they're raised.
