"Chijō no Hoshi" (地上の星, earthly stars?) is the thirty-seventh single of the Japanese singer-songwriter Miyuki Nakajima.
Song information
In March 2000, Nakajima wrote the songs "Chijō no Hoshi" and "Headlight, Taillight" (ヘッドライト・テールライト, heddoraito tēruraito?) for an NHK documentary about inventors, Project X: Challengers (プロジェクトX~挑戦者たち~, purojekto X chōsenshatachi?). On 19 July 2000, the songs were released as a double A-side single through Yamaha Music Communications. The single made its debut at #15 on the Japanese Oricon singles chart, and remained there over two years.
On 31 December 2002, Nakajima made her appearance on the annual NHK music program Kōhaku Uta Gassen. Here she performed "Chijō no Hoshi" from the tunnel in Kurobe dam, Toyama Prefecture. Nakajima's performance recorded the highest audience rating in the program in 2002. After appearing on the show, the single began climbing the chart again, reaching #1 in January 2003. The single was later certified to have sold more than a million copies. More recently "Chijō no Hoshi" was used in a demonstration of how the forthcoming Nintendo Wii is capable of playing music and showing picture files at the same time.
"Chijō no Hoshi" has also been covered by Fuyumi Sakamoto and Twelve Girls Band, whose version was called "Earthly Stars (Unsung Heroes)".
