thrillHotei Tomoyasu
Included on the 1996 album “King & Queen.” Born in 1962.
A guitarist and singer from Gunma Prefecture.
Although it’s used as Egashira 2:50’s theme on a TV show, it’s by no means the kind of song you’d just play for laughs; I think it’s a masterpiece where the aggressive guitar sound and Hotei’s shouted vocals fit together remarkably well.
BambinaHotei Tomoyasu
If you’re a rock-loving man in your 40s, there’s no doubt you’ve listened to Tomoyasu Hotei’s songs.
Among his works, the one I especially recommend as easy to sing is “Bambina.” It’s a track with a lively, raucous riff that screams rock ’n’ roll, keeping the energy high from start to finish.
Despite its upbeat feel, the vocal line sits mainly in the lower to mid range, making it very easy to sing.
Definitely give it a try.
