"I'm Coming Home" [lower-alpha 1] is a song recorded by Japanese-American singer-songwriter Ai, released on January 14, 2020, by EMI Records. Written by Ruri Matsumura, Ai and Jin, the song served as the theme song for the sci-fi thriller AI Hokai.
In October 2019, it was revealed Ai would sing the theme song for AI Amok, a Japanese sci-fi thriller film directed by Yu Ire. [1] Ai was asked by Ire to record a song for his film as he wanted a female artist to sing the theme song. [2] Regarding the film being about artificial intelligence and the irony of recruiting Ai to record a song for the film, Ire stated, “People asked me if I was joking at first, but she wrote a great song”. [3] Ire also stated he "absolutely needed Ai's loving and powerful singing". [4] In a 2020 interview regarding her 2020 extended play It's All Me, Vol. 1 , Ai talked about "I'm Coming Home", commenting, "The movie was about artificial intelligence, but I wanted to make the theme song human-like". [5]
In June 2020, "I'm Coming Home" was revealed to be included on Ai's EP, It's All Me, Vol. 1 serving as the third single. [6]
Billboard described "I'm Coming Home" as a "warm, inspirational ballad that sings about having a place to come home to". [3]
A music video was released on the same day of the songs release. The music video focuses on the real lives of three different families, similar to a documentary. Scenes where Ai is singing by the sea were shot at Tojo beach in Kamogawa in the Chiba Prefecture, where a scene from the film was recorded. [3] The music video was directed by Ire. [7]
Ai performed the song during TBS' Count Down TV broadcast. [8]
