They appear on TV often and are extremely popular.

The MC segments at their shows are a highlight—he always speaks with passion.

His words often hit home and can even be life-changing! At festivals and such, they occasionally play Hi-STANDARD songs to delight the fans.

It’s packed with pop-punk elements! It’s a song only Ken, who has been running at the forefront of the punk rock scene, could sing—and only he could write.

It’s a guaranteed crowd-pleaser and a staple at their live shows.

The music video has a sense of humor, and Ken is downright adorable in it.

It’s a relaxed song with a calm tempo.

The carefully played guitar solo is excellent.

Ken Yokoyama – Save Us (OFFICIAL VIDEO)

This is a song included on “Best Wishes,” released in November 2012.

The music video seems to have war as its theme.

Watching the MV together with the lyrics evokes many feelings, and it’s not a song that can be summed up in a single phrase.

As for the “to be continued” at the end of the MV, some say it means a continuation of this song will be made, while others interpret it as the loop of hatred toward war continuing.

It’s a very thought-provoking song.
