Recollection TrainYamazaki Masayoshi

Kaisou Densha

Masayoshi Yamazaki performs his new song “Kaisō Densha” acoustically in a commercial, inspired by a tour of Ise Grand Shrine — Kintetsu’s new TV commercial: “You’ll Want to Talk About It, Ise-Shima. (Spring 2019 • Ise Grand Shrine Edition)”

This is a song written by Masayoshi Yamazaki, a singer-songwriter who also works as an actor, for Kintetsu (Kinki Nippon Railway)’s commercial “The Ise-Shima You’ll Want to Talk About.” He himself appeared in the ad.

Inspired by a pilgrimage to Ise Jingu, the guitar and percussion rhythms pleasantly evoke the sound of trains like the limited express Shimakaze rolling along the tracks.

The gentle lyrics, which can also be read as a metaphor for life, soothe minds and bodies worn out by the day-to-day.

With its laid-back mood, it’s a perfect number to soundtrack an autumn trip.

One more time, One more chance PIANO ver.Yamazaki Masayoshi

11 – One more time, One more chance PIANO ver.

“One more time, One more chance,” the theme song of 5 Centimeters per Second.

Did you know that this deeply stirring song by Masayoshi Yamazaki is included on the soundtrack in a piano arrangement? This version is a clear departure from a simple piano cover, offering a mysterious feeling that differs from the original’s image.

Listening to this arrangement makes me feel as if I’m slowly sinking to the bottom of a cold, sorrowful sea, and I can’t help but shed tears.

Since it’s the same length as the original, I recommend closing your eyes and immersing yourself in its world for the five minutes it plays.
