[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.

HELL OR HEAVEN (Hell or Heaven)Gō Hiromi

Released in July 1978, Hiromi Go’s song is a classic born in the heart of the disco boom.

It was used as an insert song for the TBS drama “Mu Ichizoku” and became a major hit, especially among young people.

Marked by dynamic vocals and an up-tempo disco beat, it whipped dance floors of the era into a frenzy.

It’s also an important track in Go’s career and has long been a staple at his live shows.

The piece comically portrays an extreme choice—“hell or heaven”—lightly capturing life’s options and moments of decision.

Young music fans, be sure to check it out!

Hiromi Go is also 61 years old, and his secret to youth might lie in his teeth.

He has extremely straight teeth and not a single cavity or case of periodontal disease, and to maintain them he reportedly brushes for about 10 minutes each time, switching toothbrushes.

This song features a great dance where he swiftly slips off his jacket with an “acchichi” flair, and the song itself is great too, but his soulful ballads are also wonderful.

It’s an adult love song set in a hotel where a rendezvous has been promised.

Bye-Bye BabyGō Hiromi

Bye Bye Baby was released in 1975 as his 15th single.

The song originally came from the American group The Four Seasons, which the band Bay City Rollers rearranged into a rock ’n’ roll style and turned into a major hit.

Gō then covered it as well, and it became widely known in Japan.

Many people probably find the melody very familiar, and in that sense it’s also an easy song to sing.

An unforgettable personGō Hiromi

A vision of an old lover that suddenly comes back to mind.

This piece feels like you’re watching a sad love drama.

It’s a track included as the B-side to the 67th single, “Aitakute Shikatanai,” released in 1995, and it was used in a “Tenshi no Bra” commercial.

The mellow, mature melody combined with the rich, husky vocal work lets Gō-san’s charm slowly seep through.

I can’t help but listen to it while projecting my own experiences onto it.

The lowest notes are very low, so I recommend it as an easy-to-sing song for men.

I won’t forget the goodbye kiss.Gō Hiromi

Released in May 2000, this song came about 15 years after Seiko Matsuda and Goro Go broke up.

Reportedly, it was Go’s side that proposed the idea, and Matsuda’s side agreed, making the collaboration a reality.

That said, given such a suggestive title and lyrics, did they both just treat it purely as business?

Because I like youGō Hiromi

The pure feelings woven into the lyrics make my chest tighten.

Released in 2017 as their 102nd single, “Suki Dakara” is a cover of a song originally released by Ruriko Kubohisa in 2000.

It’s a love song where the bright, uplifting melody pairs perfectly with the straightforward vocals.

The message of “I love you so much” comes through directly and leaves you feeling happy.

It might be a great choice to sing at karaoke as a couple, don’t you think?

This song sings about the neighborhood hero—“Grandpa”—who speaks fluent English, has a six-pack, and even catches burglars, making him someone to admire.

It was Alex Ramirez’s walk-up song during his time with the Yomiuri Giants, before he became the manager of the Yokohama BayStars.

Listening to it somehow gives you energy.
