On the Footbridge by Takuro Yoshida

The intro felt more like enka than folk, which was an unexpected twist.

Since it’s a studio take video, the sound quality is excellent and it’s very satisfying to listen to.

With Takuro Yoshida, there’s always a certain level of quality, so you can feel at ease no matter the song or the venue.

Autumn in Tsuma

Singer-songwriter Takuro Yoshida is performing a song themed around Oki Islands in Shimane Prefecture.

Set to cool-sounding guitar tones, he sings about the charms of Shimane.

Yoshida’s guitar has a deeply poignant feel, yet it also lifts your spirits.

And yet, my life

This is a rare video that includes a blues harp.

The blues harp is an essential item for folksingers, so it’s surprising there hadn’t been one until this video.

Also, since it’s the young Takuro Yoshida, his long hair gives it a nostalgic feel.

It’s probably a studio take video from the included DVD.

Only Takuro Yoshida appears on screen, passionately singing with a guitar in hand.

Because of that, there’s nothing extraneous—just the strength of the song itself—which is the appeal.

It’s aimed at fans, but it’s worth it.

Fight! Takuro Yoshida

We often hear Miyuki Nakajima’s “Fight!” in commercials, and many artists have covered it, right? Among them, Takuro Yoshida’s cover version really resonates with me.

It’s not just his vocal ability—there’s something that speaks to the depths of my heart.

Takuro Yoshida - Sunset Glow

For those moments on your way home from work or school when you think, “Man, I’m beat today,” I recommend Takuro Yoshida’s Yubae (Evening Glow).

Included on the album Yoshidacho no Uta, this song was chosen as the theme for the film Keisho-hai starring Hiroyuki Sanada.

Its refreshing melody pairs perfectly with the sight of the slowly setting sun.

Even on days when everything felt tough, you can let it dissolve into the coming night and reset for tomorrow.

If you’re heading home thinking, “I gave it my all today!” let this song help lift your spirits.

Takuro Yoshida “Run Toward Tomorrow!” One Last Night in Tsumagoi Live ’85 – On-site Performance Version

The intro guitar has a classic folk-song opening, and it also feels like American country music.

Takuro Yoshida, revered as a god of Japanese folk, has been a great artist who has been writing masterpieces since back then and continues to do so even now.
