Masterpieces and popular songs by flumpool

Let me introduce a song by flumpool, a four-piece rock band.

You may have had chances to hear their music, as some of their songs have been used as TV drama theme songs.

Speaking of flumpool, back in 2013, guitarist Kazuki Sakai paused his “visual” activities—anything where he could be seen—in order to focus on dieting.

Comedian Yusuke Inoue from the duo NON STYLE stepped in as a support member, which became quite a talking point.

Although Inoue is a comedian, he’s shown playing the guitar impressively in the music video for “Taisetsuna Mono wa Kimi Igai ni Miataranakute” (“I Can’t Find Anything Important Besides You”).

Inoue is known for his narcissistic character, but in this MV he looks undeniably cool.

Meanwhile, the band’s regular guitarist, Sakai, exceeded his weight-loss goals and successfully returned to the band.

Saying this is the number-one song to listen to at Christmas might be an exaggeration, but its slightly wistful melody and clear, translucent vocals make it a perfect track for the winter season.

If you listen to it while watching the snow, it creates an even richer atmosphere and draws you deeper into the music.

It’s a lovely song that conjures up beautiful winter scenes.
