【X JAPAN】White Poem I

At first it might feel like someone else’s song, but it’s definitely an X JAPAN track.

They’ve even performed it live.

Unusually for the band, it’s a song made almost entirely with programming.

I feel like it reveals an unexpected side of YOSHIKI, and perhaps it influenced his compositions from this point on.

X JAPAN MedleyX JAPAN47rank/position

X JAPAN – Piano Medley

The hit songs that captivated many as a visual kei rock band have been reborn as a piano medley.

While the tunes retain their rock essence, the piano arrangements transform them into pieces that are not only fresh but also exceptionally pleasant to listen to.

Forever LoveX JAPAN48rank/position

X Japan – Forever Love

I think this song can rightly be called one of X Japan’s signature tracks.

When you listen while reflecting on X Japan’s history—overcoming many hardships such as the death of members and the brainwashing scandal involving vocalist Toshi—the word “Forever” in the title feels profoundly meaningful.

Even putting that aside, it’s simply a wonderful song that can lift your spirits.

X Japan ~ Kurenai (Last Live 1997)

It might be disrespectful to fans if you use it as a gag, but since it’s a song everyone knows, it’s surprisingly easy to turn into a bit and I actually recommend it.

You can go wild and dance like crazy to the intense moves, or even use it for a one-shot performance trick.

X Japan – Alive

This is a song that truly reflects YOSHIKI, who began his musical journey with classical piano.

Because other X JAPAN songs are hard, this medium-tempo track stands out even more, and it also has a synergistic effect that makes the hard songs feel even harder.
