Beloved daysHirai Ken

A recent blockbuster hit by Ken Hirai, renowned for his overwhelming vocal prowess.
The grand lyrics that conjure beautiful imagery and his stunning vocals draw listeners in powerfully.
As the theme song for a hugely popular drama, it’s a must-hear masterpiece ballad that also links beautifully with the show.
Plus OneHirai Ken

The music video, created with a ’90s vibe in mind, conveys a retro atmosphere through Ken Hirai’s and the backup dancers’ outfits as well as the video processing.
The song has an up-tempo yet somewhat wistful feel.
It suits Ken Hirai’s distinctive voice very well.
My Dear EllieHirai Ken

Ken Hirai has covered Southern All Stars’ “Itoshi no Ellie.” Instead of Kuwata’s slightly husky, raspy voice, Hirai’s smooth, sweet, whisper-like vocals also suit the song and make it sound refreshingly new.
Farewell SongHirai Ken

I’ve never heard a song so deranged in its despair over being dumped by a lover.
And yet, within the madness of these lyrics, I feel a sense of beauty.
I can’t help but hope that the protagonist of this song gets along with the next person they’re with and finds release from their loneliness.
