[Kayō Star] Hiromi Go’s Best Hits & Classic Songs Collection

Pop music star Hiromi Go.

Ever since his 1972 debut with “Otoko no Ko Onna no Ko,” he’s remained at the forefront, still appearing on TV even in the Reiwa era.

In his early years, along with Goro Noguchi and Hideki Saijo, he gained popularity as one of the “New Gosanke” (the new big three).

Signature crowd-pleasers like “GOLDFINGER ’99” and “Ni-oku Yon-senman no Hitomi” are killer tunes that many people have heard at least once, regardless of generation.

While Go is strongly associated with a lively, bursting energy, his carefully delivered ballads are wonderful as well.

We’ve put together a rich feature on Go’s classic songs that captivate with their dazzling charm—please take your time and enjoy.

Released in March 1974, this song is one of those that stuck with me—it charged straight down the idol path while adding a slightly more mature image, yet with an up-tempo feel that didn’t completely abandon the idol style.

There are no images from the era of “Hana to Mitsubachi” at all; what we have are mostly recent clips of Hiromi-san performing it.

Still, as an idol, I feel this song marked the peak for Hiromi Go.

He shifted sharply from cute to more manly, and his vocal ability was gradually improving.

Above all, Hiromi-san looked like he was genuinely having fun singing around this time.

He was scouted by Johnny Kitagawa at a film audition and joined Johnny & Associates.

In 1973, he was the top seller of bromide photo cards for the year and, along with Hideki Saijo and Goro Noguchi, was dubbed one of the “New Big Three,” catapulting him into the ranks of top idols.

He continues to be active today across a wide range of fields as a singer, actor, and TV personality.

As a member of the “New Big Three” idols, Hiromi Go still has such sharp dance moves and physical ability that you wouldn’t believe he’s over 60.

When it comes to his early summer songs, this is the one.

It’s an unusual cover: the same song as Yoshitaka Minami’s “Monroe Walk,” but with different lyrics.

A Lovely Cinderella ComplexGō Hiromi

Hiromi Go’s “Suteki ni Cinderella Complex,” which was featured in a Toyota Corolla commercial, is his 47th single, released in 1983.

Hiromi Go has many famous songs, but I think this one is a hidden gem among them.

So for those who remember that era, hearing it will probably make them go, “Ah, that song!” In the commercial, he even appeared playing rugby with the song in the background.

The melody is catchy and pleasant to listen to, and it really sticks with you.

It’s easy to see why it’s been loved by the public and listened to for so long.

OriginalGō Hiromi

It’s a laugh-filled commercial that reunites the female comedy trio 3ji no Heroine with Hiromi Go.

Just like the previous ad where 3ji no Heroine kept beating a tambourine non-stop, this one is also incredibly impactful—but the real charm is Hiromi Go enthusiastically belting out a mysterious song that repeats just a single word.

The melody is so catchy you can’t help but hum along.

It’s almost baffling how such an upbeat track can be built from just one word.

The doll figures linked hand and foot like a chorus line are a reliably funny touch, too! I can’t wait for the next new commercial.

Boys and girlsGō Hiromi

This was Hiromi Go’s debut song.

He later became one of the “New Big Three” alongside Hideki Saijo and Goro Noguchi, but his idol-like presence was second to none.

His debut came about when a neighborhood lady applied on his behalf for an open casting call for the 1971 film The Sound of Waves.

He didn’t get the part, but he caught the eye of Johnny Kitagawa and was scouted.

The performance where he shouts “Go! Go!” after “Kimitachi onnanoko♪” may seem like a children’s play now, but it was wildly popular at the time.

As for his singing ability? Among the New Big Three back then, he was considered the weakest.

Even so, thanks to his exceptional star quality, Go won the Best New Artist award at that year’s Japan Record Awards.

Goodbye DAY~VINGT ANS VERSION~Gō Hiromi

When you want to soak in a moist, romantic mood, be sure to try singing this song.

“Goodbye DAY” is a track included on the 1982 album “Aishuu no Casablanca,” with the original written by singer-songwriter Takao Kisugi.

The version introduced here, “Goodbye DAY ~VINGT ANS VERSION~,” is a rearranged take included on the 1995 best-of album “THE GREATEST HITS OF HIROMI GO VOL.2 ~Ballads~.” Let your mature, heartfelt vocals resonate and move the soul.
