“Ore no Kanojo”—or “My Girlfriend” in English—is one of my favorite tracks from Utada Hikaru’s album Fantôme. The lyrics tell the story of a relationship from the perspective of both the male and female, with Utada singing both parts. To sum up the male part, the guy is kind of a douche, but he at least acknowledges he’s a loser.
I loved the concept so much that I decided to make an English cover! My version, entitled “My Lady,” is a sort-of “follow-up” to Utada’s version, in which we get to dig deeper into the male’s perspective. Spoiler alert: there’s some #toxicmasculinity going on.
Hope you enjoy! Lyrics are in the comments.
SOMEONE SEND THIS TO UTADA! I WANT TO WORK FOR HER! My career goal is to write songs for anime and other media, so just send this to anyone who can help with that! Thanks for watching!

I wrote these English lyrics, but I don’t own the original lyrics or music. Please support Utada by purchasing her music.
