While Masaharu Fukuyama is captivating with his grounded rock tunes and refreshing pop numbers, his medium-tempo ballads are truly outstanding as well.

Shinion is his first new song in a while since his previous release, which was used as the theme song for the drama #Remolove: Normal Love Is for Losers.

The beautiful lyrics ride on a gentle, soothing atmosphere, and his voice—deeper and richer with age—sounds fantastic.

That soft, airy feel might be the key charm point.

I’d love to sing it with a tender, conversational touch.

The lyrics feel like a message you’d send to someone important, expressing gratitude even on days when things don’t go well.

The way the two of them deliver it—strong yet refreshing—is really cool! It gives you the kind of energy that feels like a push from behind.

With Yoshino Kimura and chay joining the chorus, it’s also great fun for everyone—men and women together—to sing along.

It’s a wonderful track that lets you feel “the present” and the spirit of “youth.”
