Simple and Clean is the song played during the credits of Kingdom Hearts and Kingdom Hearts: Chain of Memories, written by Utada Hikaru. A remixed version of it is played in the opening FMV of Kingdom Hearts. Both the original and the remix have Japanese versions, also written and sung by Utada Hikaru, however, sporting different lyrics.
The melody of the refrain of "Simple and Clean" is borrowed from another of Utada's Japanese songs, "Hikari", originally released on her third album, Deep River. In addition, the theme of the song is very different in the chorus of the English version. A PLANITb remix of "Simple and Clean" was used for the opening of the North American release of Kingdom Hearts. In addition, an orchestral arrangement of "Hikari" can be heard in the game's demo mode. "Hikari" is assumed to be the theme of the entire Kingdom Hearts series, as the same orchestral arrangement is heard in the trailers of Kingdom Hearts II, as well as towards the end of Kingdom Hearts II.
