Kohmi Hirose – Promise (Official Video)

She’s often called the “Queen of Winter,” and “promise” is also loved as part of that tradition during the winter season.

It features a passionate, dramatic melody and a structure that shows off vocal ability, with a chorus that leaps into the high register from the A and B sections.

I sing it often myself, but the tricky part is definitely the chorus.

It combines a brisk tempo, fast passages, and extremely high notes—all three at once.

Also, it’s easy to speed up in the chorus once you get into it, so aim to sing with enough composure.

When transitioning from the A/B sections to the chorus, try lifting your eyebrows and engaging your facial muscles so the shift in melody feels smoother.

Minami Tanaka shows off her flawless fair skin with a ‘killer smile’; CM song by Kohmi Hirose — New commercials: NIVEA Deo Protect & Care Spray “Birth” and “Spray Birth” editions.

The song playing in the NIVEA Deo Protect & Care Spray commercial titled “Birth,” featuring Mina Tanaka, is an original track made for the ad.

Even though it’s an original, the singer is none other than Kōmi Hirose! It’s so dazzlingly delivered in her signature soaring voice that you’ll instinctively want to search which album it’s on.

Her powerful vocals rival the product’s impact, packing a charm that makes the few seconds in the CM feel too short—you’ll want to hear the full version.

The lyrics are tailored to the product, but it would feel perfectly natural if this were released as a Kōmi Hirose song as-is!
