With the motto “Learn the basics and enjoy putting them into practice,” I worked as a vocal coach specializing in Western music. As a teen, I questioned the idea that “Western music equals English,” and started listening to songs from around the world. Today, I devour music from over 80 countries and run a personal blog introducing tracks. I often listen to genres like nuevo flamenco, bolero, canzone, and R&B. I’ll keep updating articles daily to find the one perfect song you’re looking for!

Thank you, God.Sugata Masaki × Nakamura Tomoya

Masaki Suda × Tomoya Nakamura “Thank You, God”

Thank you, God.Sugata Masaki × Nakamura Tomoya

This song came to life from Masaki Suda’s wish to create something together with Tomoya Nakamura, his respected senior from the same agency who is also active as an actor.

The blend of Suda’s emotionally charged vocals and Nakamura’s gentle, supportive voice conveys a sense of warmth.

The light, acoustic, singer-songwriter-like rhythm is also striking, evoking images of savoring the small happiness of everyday life.

The positive lyrics, calling on each other to keep moving forward, give the impression of expressing the trust between Suda and Nakamura.
