STILL ALIVEHotei Tomoyasu26rank/position

This is a hard rock number by Tomoyasu Hotei that evokes a life-or-death battle unfolding in a post-apocalyptic wasteland.
It was written specifically for a project tied to the hugely popular manga Fist of the North Star.
The innovative sound that slams in right before the first verse—said to express the protagonist’s scream through the guitar—sends listeners’ excitement soaring.
The track was released as a single in August 2010.
In the pachislot game Pachislot Fist of the North Star: Legends of the Post-Apocalyptic Savior, it plays during ART when Toki accompanies you in a special situation, making it a divine anthem that signals a big win for pachinko fans.
Savage Sun feat. GLIM SPANKYHotei Tomoyasu27rank/position

This track that played in Daihatsu’s compact SUV Rocky “Door to Another World” commercial comes from Tomoyasu Hotei’s collaboration album “Soul to Soul”—a cool song featuring GLIM SPANKY, purveyors of bluesy next‑gen rock! The guitar call-and-response between Hotei and GLIM SPANKY’s Kamemoto speaks volumes, and Remi Matsuo’s husky, profound vocals are incredibly cool.
It was reportedly recorded remotely, yet the seamless cohesion and groove never give that away and feel wonderfully tight.
THANK YOU&GOOD BYEHotei Tomoyasu28rank/position

After disbanding BOØWY in 1987 and starting his solo career, he released “THANK YOU & GOOD BYE” as his 16th single in 1998.
It’s well known that his former wife was Kumiko Yamashita, and this song is said to have been dedicated to her at the time of their divorce.
