Takashi Yu's masterworks and popular songs

Let me introduce some songs by singer-songwriter Yu Takahashi.

When it comes to Yu Takahashi, his song “Fukuwarai,” known for its warm, heartfelt lyrics, is especially famous.

He has a wide range of tracks, from ballads to slightly uptempo numbers, so please give this playlist a listen.

It’s said that in 2011, Yu Takahashi did a street performance in New York, and at that time he placed an opinion advertisement in The New York Times.

Apparently, he was the first to place such an opinion ad in The New York Times since Yoko Ono.
