DEEN “Summer Lovers 2016” Music Video Short Ver.

I don’t think there are many men who can sing so refreshingly and naturally all by themselves like Ikemori-san.

Because his singing is so good, his personality really comes through.

This song has a slightly fun vibe and is perfect for summer.

His singing has become even better with age.

DEEN 'Graduation' Music Video

This moving number by DEEN, a band that has colored the times with numerous classic songs, was created by likening their 18th year since forming to the milestone of “graduation.” The lyrics, which express gratitude for the irreplaceable days spent with friends and hope for the future, truly resonate.

Included as the final track on the June 2011 album “Graduation,” it’s a fitting conclusion to the album’s overarching theme.

An unfading masterpiece you’ll want to listen to when embarking on a new chapter or thinking of dear friends.

DEEN “I Want You ~Sólo te quiero a ti.~” from ‘NEWJOURNEY’

A track wrapped in passionate Latin music.

It’s an irresistibly catchy dance number that makes you want to start moving your feet.

Although it’s quite far from DEEN’s old image, it’s included on the album NEWJOURNEY, created under the concept: “An album where you can enjoy the world of sounds performed by DEEN!”

Your very own Santa ClausDEEN46rank/position

DEEN “Your Only Santa Claus” from ‘Spur’ Teaser Movie

DEEN, who have continued to release hit songs from the 1990s to the present, put out a winter-themed album titled “Spur” in December 2021.

Featured on that album, this song is a gem of a love ballad that layers bittersweet feelings for Christmas over the sophisticated sounds of city pop and AOR.

It captures the thrill of a first Christmas Eve together and a sincere wish for a loved one, delivering a passionate message about becoming Santa Claus to grant that person’s wishes.

Shuichi Ikemori’s clear, transparent vocals and Koji Yamane’s urbane arrangement create a beauty like snow dancing across the winter night sky.

It’s a perfect track for a special night spent with your partner or when you want to convey your feelings to someone important.

Christmas After You LeftDEEN47rank/position

Christmas After You Left (DEEN) 🎵

As the title suggests, it’s a very heartbreaking breakup song.

It’s a pop tune that sings about a man’s feelings as he spends a lonely Christmas by himself, thinking about the girlfriend he broke up with.

It’s a very sad and pitiable love song.

Beyond sorrowDEEN48rank/position

Beyond the Sorrow [DEEN] kanashimi no mukōgawa

It’s a ballad that gently lights a small lamp in the hearts of those sunk in deep sorrow.

Rather than trying to cheer someone up by force, the lyrics speak to them by simply staying by their side and inviting them to believe together in the hope that lies ahead—words that truly resonate.

Released in November 2000 as DEEN’s 21st single, the song was used as the theme for the drama “Kōfuku no Ashita” (Tomorrow of Happiness).

It opens with a quiet acoustic tone, then gradually builds into a fuller band sound in a dramatic structure that mirrors the clearing of a troubled heart.

Listen to it when times are tough, and you’ll surely find the courage to face tomorrow.

If I Could See You in My Dreams feat. Tomoyo HaradaDEEN49rank/position

DEEN "If I Could See You in My Dreams" feat. Tomoyo Harada

Eiichi Ohtaki, who handled guitar and vocals for Happy End—the band that brilliantly fused Japanese rhythm with ensemble playing and created masterpieces that left their mark not only on Japanese rock and folk but on music history—was one of the key figures who can be said to have established the genre of city pop.

Among his many classic solo tracks, a quintessential one is Yume de Aetara (If I See You in My Dreams).

Its dreamy melody has been covered and cherished by countless musicians.

It’s a beautiful pop tune Japan can be proud of.
