Hymn to LoveKoshiji Fubuki

Koshiji Fubuki – Hymn to Love (from “Koshiji Fubuki: The Magnificent World”)

The famous song by French chanson singer Édith Piaf was covered in Japanese by Fubuki Koshiji.

It is one of Koshiji’s signature songs and was also performed on the Kōhaku Uta Gassen.

True to the nature of chanson, it’s a song that gains depth as the years go by.

It’s a piece I want to delve into more deeply each and every year.

Your smile

Your Smile (ON THE ROAD 2022 LIVE at Budokan)

It’s a love song filled with tenderness and poignancy, looking back on the memories built up with a cherished person.

The way it tries to somehow avoid a sad ending when the two are about to grow apart conveys the strength of its feelings.

The warm, gently unfolding sound and the softly conversational vocals layered together express single-hearted devotion.

Singing slowly and relaxed, as if delivering the words straight and true, is a key point in crafting the song’s world.

A more effortless, unforced singing style may better convey the emotions embedded in the song.

unrequited love

Unrequited Love (ON THE ROAD “FILMS”)

This song portrays the pain that grows stronger as one’s feelings deepen, even while knowing the love will never be fulfilled.

It was included on the 1978 album “Illumination,” and later released as the B-side to “Ai o Nemurasete.” The lyrics depict regret over having fallen in love and a wish to be rewarded, if only once.

Because the melodic pitch changes very gently, it’s likely an easy song to sing without strain.

Precisely because the range isn’t wide, being mindful of how to convey emotion is essential.
