00:00The interviewer is Osamu Hayashi.
00:03Tonight,
00:06there is a big incident in the TV world.
00:09A big incident!
00:11A Japanese top news artist, who is also a popular talk show artist,
00:16is appearing in a talk show for the first time.
00:19For the first time!
00:20Who is it?
00:21His charisma is...
00:23Who is it?
00:24Welcome.
00:25Welcome.
00:27My name is Yunus.
00:28Yunus!
00:29Nice to meet you.
00:30It's Yunus!
00:31I can't believe how excited he is!
00:34Is he going to be on TV?
00:35No way!
00:36Why?
00:37I've never seen him talk on TV before.
00:41Thank you for coming today.
00:43It's my pleasure.
00:45He's talking!
00:46To be honest,
00:47his music is great,
00:49and his art is really great.
00:52He is a person who can control both the visual and auditory space.
00:57That's my honest impression.
00:58I'm flattered.
01:01I've been doing only what I like,
01:05and this is what happened.
01:07But other than that,
01:09I've been living as a person who can't do anything.
01:13I think that's the biggest thing.
01:18The top artist who leads the Japanese music scene,
01:22Kenshi Yonezu!
01:24It's him!
01:29He's so handsome!
01:37The theme song of the drama, Unnatural, Lemon, was a big hit.
01:43The number of views of the music video on YouTube exceeded 870 million times,
01:49and it set the record for the highest number of views in the history of Japanese artists.
01:54And...
01:56It's Umatoshi.
02:06The theme song of the Japanese drama, No Side Game,
02:09won the first place in the number of downloads of Oricon.
02:13It's Umatoshi.
02:17In addition, the songs he provided to other artists were also a big hit one after another.
02:26I love this song.
02:36It's a good song.
02:38This is also Yonezu's song.
02:41It's a good song.
02:45Paprika!
02:47He danced!
02:48It's a good song.
02:50He danced at the sports day.
02:55All the songs written and composed by Kenshi Yonezu are well-known.
03:02However, he rarely appears on TV shows,
03:06and his private life is shrouded in mystery.
03:10You have a mysterious impression.
03:13I can't imagine what kind of relationship you have.
03:18Do you have any interaction in the entertainment world?
03:21I like to drink alcohol.
03:24In the evening, I go to a bar where my friends gather.
03:33Daiki and Satoru from King Gnu are like,
03:37what have you been up to lately?
03:44Do you go to a fancy bar?
03:46Do you go to a normal izakaya?
03:48When I eat, I usually go to Uber Eats.
03:53I love Chinese food, curry, and sushi.
03:55Chinese food, curry, and sushi?
03:57Yes.
03:58I rotate between those three.
04:03Do you like Western or ethnic curry?
04:06I like normal curry.
04:08Like Coco Ichi.
04:10It's an eight-flavor curry.
04:12That's surprising.
04:13Coco Ichi is the best curry in the world.
04:16It's a revolution in the world.
04:21It's not delicious.
04:24What kind of toppings do you like?
04:27Sausage.
04:29Basically, I'm a kid.
04:31I think curry and sausage are the best.
04:37Do you understand?
04:38I like sausages, hamburgers, and sushi.
04:43I like easy-to-understand food.
04:45I see.
04:46I think Coco Ichi is going to be a big deal.
04:50Coco Ichi is going to be a big deal.
04:53Yonezu-san, King Gnu's Tsuneta-san,
04:56you said you'd be locked up in your room for months
04:59if you started making music.
05:01What do you think?
05:03I think I'm like him.
05:05Really?
05:07I stay at home all the time.
05:09I close the curtains.
05:12I'm really unhealthy.
05:15You don't go outside?
05:16No, I don't.
05:18So, you like Uber Eats and Coco Ichi?
05:19Yes.
05:23Yonezu-san is showing us a surprising side of him.
05:28The theme song of the TV series,
05:32Tora ni Tsubasa,
05:34is called Sayounara Mata Itsuka.
05:37In the music video,
05:40It's a stylish music video.
05:50Yonezu-san is showing us a surprising side of him.
05:54It's cute.
05:55I've always wanted to try braiding my hair.
05:59Is that so?
06:00When I decided to make a music video,
06:03I thought about how I would do it.
06:07I thought braiding my hair would be the way I've always wanted to do it.
06:12So, you did what you wanted to do?
06:15No, it wasn't what I wanted to do.
06:17It wasn't?
06:19I braided my hair in an orange suit.
06:23It was my own decision.
06:25I didn't know how I would look like.
06:29He made me a suit,
06:31and I tried it on.
06:34I didn't know how I would look like.
06:38I'm sure the viewers were surprised,
06:43but I was the most surprised.
06:48Have you met Kenty?
06:50I've been to the bar where Yonezu-san used to work.
06:56No, I haven't.
06:58I was talking in a tone that was close to him.
07:01No, I haven't.
07:03Tonight, Yonezu-san will tell us everything on TV.
07:09The Earth game was offered by director Hayao Miyazaki.
07:15He will tell us how he was surprised.
07:19It was the biggest event of my life.
07:23I felt like I was on TV.
07:26He will tell us about his past.
07:30I stayed at home and didn't talk to anyone.
07:34I didn't know what people around me were saying.
07:39He will tell us about his childhood.
07:44He will tell us about his life.
07:50I'm very curious.
07:54First, Hayashi Osamu will tell us about the birth of the hit song,
07:58such as lemon and paprika.
08:01At this corner, we asked Masaru Akai,
08:05who is the owner of the flower shop, to design this flower.
08:08This time, more than 100 types of green were collected from all over the world.
08:14Green is an ingredient that absorbs carbon dioxide from the Earth.
08:17It is a product that moisturizes oxygen and circulates it.
08:20The image of that is to absorb various things from Yonezu-san
08:23and make people enjoy music.
08:26That's why he chose this design.
08:30It's really cool.
08:35The song that made Yonezu Kenshi famous all over the world.
08:44The song that made Yonezu Kenshi famous all over the world.
08:52Lemon, released in 2018.
08:58This song is a national hit song that has been published in high school music textbooks
09:02and is loved by people of all ages.
09:08It's a national hit song, Lemon.
09:10Did you get on the school textbook?
09:12Yes.
09:13What did you think when you got in touch with the school?
09:16It's an honor.
09:18That's amazing.
09:20Is this it?
09:22I've never seen this before.
09:24Is the textbook so fashionable now?
09:27It's fashionable.
09:28It's fashionable.
09:29It's very fashionable.
09:31I remember being more stupid when I was a kid.
09:36I might have liked music a little more if I had been on this kind of thing.
09:40It was a little tough to be turned into a demon in junior high school.
09:44You were turned into a demon.
09:46It had a lot of impact.
09:50Unnatural, a drama based on Lemon.
09:56It's a story about a group of disabled people trying to solve an unnatural death.
10:02This song has a big theme of death,
10:07but in fact, something unforgettable happened to Kenshi Yonezu during the production process.
10:14What is it?
10:15I'm curious.
10:18This song is full of memories.
10:21My mother's grandfather died during the production process.
10:29The drama itself was about facing the death of a person.
10:36While I was making the song,
10:39something similar happened to my family.
10:43It was a coincidence, but I thought it was a little unnatural.
10:54Do you have any memories with your grandfather?
10:58When I was a kid, I was the type to stay at home.
11:04I didn't talk to anyone.
11:06I think I was a child who didn't know what I was thinking.
11:11So I don't have any special conversations with my grandfather.
11:19But I really liked my grandfather's house.
11:22He was from Tokushima Prefecture.
11:25There was a village on the slope of a mountain.
11:30There was a big difference in height between the lowest and highest point.
11:34I think that scene still has a big impact on me.
11:45When I wake up in the morning, I can see the mountains overlapping.
11:52When I wake up in the morning, I can't see anything.
11:55It was a village with a lot of impressive scenes.
11:58When you go home, do you play outside and run up to your house?
12:04Yes.
12:06I have more memories of running down than of running up.
12:10I fell down on the way down.
12:12I had a hard time.
12:16I think that memory is bigger.
12:20Grandfather's presence and the original scenery still remain in Kenshi Yonezu's heart.
12:26My grandfather made me write this song.
12:29Lemon, who wrote the lyrics of his feelings for his deceased grandfather,
12:34became a song that moved people's hearts.
12:38And in 2018, he won the first TV award at the Kouhaku Uta Gassen.
12:50Do you think that song was a turning point in your life?
12:55I think so.
12:57I think my life was completely different before and after making that song.
13:04Lemon is a little different from the version that was played in the commercial and the version that was played in the main story.
13:15I really want to do it to the end of the deadline.
13:20I have a feeling that I want to go all the way.
13:27So I submitted it and said,
13:30This is the perfect sound source of FIX.
13:34After submitting it, I asked him to do it again.
13:40So I re-recorded it.
13:42The melody has changed a little.
13:44The melody has changed.
13:46I'm sorry for the inconvenience.
13:50Looking back on it now, you want to do it to the end of the deadline.
13:55I think of almost all the songs.
13:59Sometimes you get stuck.
14:01What do you do at that time?
14:04I sleep.
14:06That's normal.
14:07That's reset.
14:09I didn't notice it until yesterday, but when I woke up and reset it, it felt completely different.
14:17I think that's one of the important things.
14:21Are you the one who can sleep for a long time? Or are you a short sleeper?
14:24It's a long time.
14:26I feel like I have to sleep for 10 hours.
14:29I wonder if I've grown this big because I've been sleeping so much.
14:34Is there anything that you think you've failed?
14:37I made it all the time.
14:39I thought I'd forget it once.
14:41When I woke up, it was re-recorded on my computer.
14:45I forgot to save it.
14:47I've lost it.
14:51At that time, how good would it be if this was a dream?
14:56I've been thinking about it all the time.
14:59It was a good exchange.
15:02It's the first time.
15:04It's wonderful.
15:07Kenshin Yonezu creates hit songs one after another.
15:12The origin of the creation was the existence of a great director.
15:18I took the script and jumped.
15:23It was the biggest thing in my life.
15:26I was a very introverted child.
15:28I stayed at home and didn't talk to anyone.
15:32I heard that Yonezu's songs are influenced by someone.
15:37Hayao Miyazaki influenced me a lot.
15:42I've loved Ghibli movies since I was a kid.
15:46I feel like he's been there for me since I was a kid.
15:53I see.
15:54I feel like he's been there for me since I was a kid.
15:56What do you mean?
15:57I personally think he's a teacher.
15:59I feel like he's been there for me since I was a kid.
16:01In terms of music, he's a completely different person.
16:06As I grew up, I became interested in what kind of person he was.
16:12I was passionate about his books and documentaries.
16:21I remember how cool it looked when he was making something while he was very passionate about it.
16:30I felt like I was being influenced by him.
16:39He's like a mentor.
16:41For example.
16:51This song, Hien, is based on Miyazaki's work, Naoshika in the Valley of the Wind.
17:01And the most influential song is...
17:04I'm curious.
17:09That's right!
17:10Is that so?
17:16Written, composed, and produced by Kenshi Yonezu.
17:20Paprika was made as a cheering song for children.
17:24Yuta, this is really Yuta.
17:26In particular, Paprika is influenced by Miyazaki's work.
17:30That's right.
17:31There was an order to make it as a cheering song.
17:38I don't know what it means for a child to sing a cheering song for a child.
17:45I didn't want to tell him to do his best.
17:48I didn't want him to tell his children to do their best.
17:51When I think about what kind of stance Miyazaki should take to make a song that feels like a cheering song for children,
18:01Miyazaki's image comes to mind first.
18:05He's a man who's been talking about how he wants to make a movie that makes children feel like they're alive.
18:16I wanted to learn from his stance.
18:21In the end, I wanted to make a song that children wouldn't underestimate.
18:33When I think about what kind of cheering song it is,
18:38I think back to my childhood.
18:42As I said earlier, I remember my grandfather's scenery in the mountains.
18:49I remember playing in the river, fireworks, and running around.
18:55I think it has a great impact on me now.
19:00So, before I try to make my dreams come true,
19:07I think it's very meaningful to have the power to go there,
19:13and to have fun and live in this world.
19:25I don't mean to make fun of the idea of going forward towards one goal,
19:32but I don't think it's a trivial matter whether you achieve your goal or not.
19:38I think there's something very rich in the process of going there.
19:45It's a great responsibility to tell children,
19:50and if you talk cruelly, children's dreams won't come true.
19:56I don't think it's a trivial matter whether you achieve your goal or not.
20:02I think it's more important to have the power to go there,
20:08and to have fun and live in this world.
20:17As he used to run around the mountains,
20:21he wants children to enjoy the present.
20:25He wants children to grow up with excitement,
20:30just as he did with Miyazaki's film.
20:35That's what he wants to convey in his film, Paprika.
20:46What kind of offer did you get from director Miyazaki?
20:53I heard that Miyazaki listened to Paprika.
20:58He doesn't usually watch TV or the media,
21:05but I heard that Paprika was the only one he listened to.
21:12I heard that producer Suzuki asked him to direct the film.
21:22That's what he told me.
21:26Director Miyazaki listened to Paprika,
21:32and that's how he got the offer to direct the film.
21:37But...
21:39I felt like I was going to die.
21:43It was the biggest event of my life.
21:50Director Miyazaki listened to Paprika,
21:54and that's how he got the offer to direct the film.
22:01That's how the song was born.
22:09Director Miyazaki listened to Paprika.
22:15What's this?
22:17The theme of the film, Earthling,
22:21won the Academy Award for best animation.
22:26Director Miyazaki listened to Paprika.
22:31What was the pressure like to receive the offer from Miyazaki?
22:38It was the biggest event of my life.
22:42It was that big?
22:44Did it take you four years?
22:47Yes.
22:48I received the script first,
22:51and there were about five copies.
22:54It was like two copies of Jump.
23:01I was told to make the film as freely as possible.
23:07It was a lot of pressure.
23:11It was like being told to come back from the middle of the desert.
23:18That's how you felt?
23:20I didn't know where to go.
23:26What did you do when you heard the film was done?
23:31I felt like I was going to die.
23:35I was going to meet the director,
23:38get the CD, and play it on the spot.
23:42I didn't know what to say.
23:45It took four years.
23:47But it turned out to be a great film.
23:53I said, let's do this.
23:57I heard that Director Miyazaki cried and was happy.
24:03That's what it looked like to me.
24:06I don't know why, but Suzuki-san said it wasn't true.
24:11So I don't think it's true.
24:18Kenshi Yonezu has had many great successes
24:21and led a brilliant life as an artist.
24:26But sometimes he shows us...
24:31I'm the type of person who stays at home.
24:34I don't talk to anyone.
24:37I don't know what I'm thinking.
24:42His shadowy statement.
24:46It was deeply related to Kenshi Yonezu's past.
24:53Next, how was Kenshi Yonezu born?
24:58Osamu Hayashi approaches the origin of the story.
25:01I'm very curious.
25:04What was he like as a child?
25:07He was a very introverted child.
25:10He stayed at home and didn't talk to anyone.
25:15He didn't understand what people around him were saying.
25:23He didn't know how to respond to that.
25:28He didn't know what was right.
25:33I think he drew or made music to fill that gap.
25:42He was facing that.
25:44He was unfamiliar with the world around him.
25:49What filled his heart was music and manga.
25:55I wanted to make music when I was in middle school.
25:59Until then, I wanted to be a manga artist.
26:03I saw you jump right away.
26:07Did you like to jump?
26:09I loved jumping.
26:12What was your favorite manga?
26:14The first one was Naruto.
26:18I read Naruto.
26:20I read all the stories.
26:24You're very good at drawing.
26:26I wonder if you were successful as a manga artist.
26:29It's hard to be a manga artist.
26:32It's hard to be a manga artist.
26:34There's an essay by Kishimoto on the Naruto manga page.
26:42When I read it as a child, I thought it was hard to be a manga artist.
26:51I couldn't sleep at night.
26:54I had to draw on a piece of paper in my closet.
26:59You had to sleep for 10 hours.
27:01Yes.
27:03I couldn't do that.
27:06Some manga artists die early due to lack of sleep.
27:13But Mizuki-san from GeGeGe no Kitaro...
27:16She slept a lot.
27:19Did you know that?
27:21I thought it was important to sleep.
27:25Sleep is important.
27:28She received high praise for her drawing skills.
27:33She drew all the illustrations for the CD cover.
27:37And...
27:45She used her own illustrations to make her own music video.
27:52What's that?
27:53Everything is here.
27:55Wow.
27:56She gave up being a manga artist and started making music when she was in junior high school.
28:03She was inspired by Spitz and Bump of Chicken.
28:06She invited her friends to form a band.
28:09It was from a band.
28:11That's when Yonezu Kenshi hit a big wall.
28:16You formed a band in junior high school.
28:19How long did you do that?
28:21I was in a band until I was 18 years old.
28:29But I realized that I wasn't good enough.
28:34You were talented in music. Why weren't you good enough?
28:38I wasn't good at working with people.
28:43It must be difficult to work with people in a band.
28:47I often gave up.
28:50I couldn't communicate what I wanted to do.
28:56And I didn't have enough words.
28:59When I couldn't communicate, I was like Ajay Illes.
29:04I was like, I'll do it myself.
29:06I was like that.
29:10Since then, I've been making music on my computer.
29:16I was doing that.
29:18I was able to do everything on my own.
29:21As I was doing it, I found Vocaloid.
29:28I thought it would be good to do it alone.
29:32Yonezu can do everything by himself.
29:36Yonezu Kenshi couldn't get along with the band members.
29:41It was a light of hope for him.
29:48Vocaloid
29:50The world of Vocaloid where the combined voice sings when you input lyrics and melody.
29:57This is the culture of Japan.
29:59He was able to create a musical work by himself.
30:03Vocaloid
30:06Yonezu Kenshi started his activity in the name of Hachi on Nico Nico Douga, a site where you can post videos.
30:15Vocaloid
30:21From songs to videos, he posts the works he made by himself on the site.
30:25Do you make your own videos?
30:28He has a million views in a row.
30:32Finally, he became the top creator of Vocaloid.
30:37Looking back on the Vocaloid era, what do you think now?
30:41It's like my hometown.
30:45I slowly realized that I wasn't good enough for the band.
30:51In the meantime, a community was created to post Vocaloid songs on Nico Nico Douga.
31:00I thought I might be able to join.
31:05I was really lucky to meet him there.
31:09If it was a little off, I think I would have had a completely different life.
31:15Yonezu continued to make music like Urakata without showing his face, voice, or real name.
31:24Vocaloid
31:26He started his activity in the name of Yonezu Kenshi, his real name, from 2012.
31:32Vocaloid
31:35Suddenly, he decided to stand on the front stage.
31:40What kind of changes did he see there?
31:47It was a lot of fun to make Vocaloid music.
31:52In the first place, I started making music because I admired the people who showed their faces and sang in their own names.
32:04I had a lot of admiration for the vocalists of the band.
32:10I couldn't continue making music without ignoring that.
32:17Now there are a lot of young people who want to be Vocaloid P.
32:24At that time, there were a lot of people like me who were tired of other things.
32:34I wanted to do this, I wanted to do that, but I couldn't, so I started making Vocaloid music.
32:43Vocaloid music was a big part of my life.
32:50But I didn't feel comfortable living in this country alone.
33:06He jumped into the world of Vocaloid because he was worried about the human relationship of the band.
33:12Will he stay in a self-sufficient world where he can do everything he wants to do?
33:19Or will he challenge his dream again?
33:25As a result, he decided to appear on the front stage.
33:31The number of views on YouTube exceeded 2.6 million times.
33:42Yonezu, who was trapped alone, asked Masaki Suda for a collaboration.
33:47Gray and blue.
33:51Horse and deer that echoed at the Rugby World Cup venue and colored the touching scene.
33:59And...
34:07Kick Back is the first Japanese song to be released on the market.
34:11From the American Record Association to the RIAA, Gold Ninte, etc.
34:16He creates great songs one after another.
34:22He should have established a steady position as a top artist.
34:26Actually, he started doing something unexpected recently.
34:31Did you go to a boy training school?
34:34I started about two or three years ago.
34:37Since I was in my thirties, I hadn't really learned anything from anyone.
34:44I wanted to face it again.
34:50I didn't start from scratch.
34:53The same goes for the boy training teacher.
34:56I asked him to teach me from scratch so that I could teach a child who didn't know anything about singing.
35:02That's how I started.
35:04The teacher must have had a hard time, too.
35:07I don't know.
35:09Yonezu Kenshi's music activities are based on learning.
35:15The lyrics are influenced by Miyazawa Kenji, Takuboku Ishikawa, and Santouka Taneda.
35:27Next, Osamu Hayashi, a contemporary writer, approaches the world of Yonezu Kenshi's lyrics.
35:34This is amazing.
35:36Yonezu-san is very fond of Miyazawa Kenji's literature.
35:40Are you influenced by him?
35:45Yes, I am.
35:47I've always liked Miyazawa Kenji.
35:51There's a poem called Haru to Shura.
35:55I was influenced by Miyazawa Kenji when I was in my late teens.
36:02He was like a guardian angel to me.
36:08I was influenced by Miyazawa Kenji.
36:13The lyrics of the new album, Mainichi, are based on Takuboku Ishikawa's words.
36:26Jitto te wo miru.
36:28You can tell it's Takuboku when you see the dots.
36:32This is Takuboku Ishikawa's famous line.
36:36Hatarakedo, hatarakedo, nao waga kurashi, rakuni narazari.
36:40Jitto te wo miru.
36:42That's why he was influenced by Takuboku Ishikawa.
36:45Why did you use this line?
36:48When I was composing Mainichi, I had a lot on my plate.
36:56I had a lot of things I had to do.
37:00When I was composing, I didn't just move my hands.
37:06I kept writing and writing.
37:10I wondered what I was doing.
37:13It was like a time of self-destruction.
37:17That's when I thought of this line.
37:20Hatarakedo, hatarakedo.
37:23I couldn't help but think of that line.
37:27I thought it would be fun to use that line.
37:33Takuboku is a person who caused a lot of trouble.
37:37There's a work I really like.
37:40Ichido demo ware ni atama wo sagesase shi, hito mina shine to inori deshikota.
37:46I love that song.
37:49It's a great song.
37:51It's a great song.
37:53It's the first time I've heard this song.
37:57It's the best.
37:59It's the best.
38:01What is this?
38:03You look like you're in a good mood.
38:05I met someone who understands me.
38:08Yonezu is getting more and more excited.
38:10I'm getting more and more excited.
38:12I really like things like that.
38:15It reminds me of myself.
38:18You have to go for it.
38:21I'd like to ask you a few more questions.
38:23In the poem, there's a shadow.
38:26In the second half, there's a shadow of a shadow hat.
38:30In the poem, there's a shadow of a shadow hat.
38:36Indeed, the word shadow appears many times in Yonezu's lyrics.
38:43Natsu ga kuru kage ga tatsu anata ni aitai
38:53Sono kuse kage wo baramaita
38:58Kizuite hoshikatta
39:02Hikari ni furete
39:05Kage wo nobashita
39:08I wonder if this shadow is connected to death.
39:15That's right.
39:17After all, the eyes go to the shadow.
39:24The word shadow appears many times in Yonezu's lyrics.
39:29There is a message in this.
39:32I wonder if this shadow is connected to death.
39:37That's right.
39:39I wonder if this shadow is connected to death.
39:44There is a message in this.
39:49After all, the eyes go to the shadow.
39:53After all, the eyes go to the shadow.
40:01I think it's my nature to think about it first.
40:09I think death has a very negative image.
40:18But I don't think it's just that.
40:22It's very natural for humans to live.
40:26It's one of the ways of life.
40:31I don't think it's something you have to hide until you die.
40:37I think it's because there is such a nuance and smell.
40:42I think it's something you can think about now.
40:48I think it's important to make your own music.
40:58The more the shadow becomes colorful, the more the light shines.
41:03I feel the vividness of life now because I am conscious of the death of one day.
41:10Yonezu Kenshi's lyrics are connected to his philosophy of life.
41:16What happens if you say that?
41:19And the lyrics of the latest work are unique.
41:24This is a movie starring Hikari Mitsushima.
41:29The theme song of Last Mile, Galacta.
41:33In the lyrics of this song, Yonezu listens to it when he was a child.
41:37For some reason, it remains in my heart.
41:40Unexpected words are used.
41:45I have a favorite word since I was a child.
41:49There is a delivery and recovery company.
41:52It's like a delivery and recovery center.
41:55I'm running around in a car with an alarm clock.
41:57TV, computer, home appliances.
42:00I have everything.
42:02There is a saying that it doesn't matter if it's broken.
42:08I've heard that a lot since I was a child.
42:11I will recover anything.
42:14It doesn't matter if it's broken.
42:17Is the sensor different?
42:19I think it's a word that has a lot of nuances.
42:25It has a very lonely sound.
42:28At the same time, it has a wide space.
42:31It doesn't matter if it's broken.
42:33There is a wide space to wrap it up.
42:36It doesn't matter if it's broken.
42:40Everyone has a part that is broken.
42:43I live with each one of them.
42:46I don't think there is a single person who has lived with no mistakes.
42:51At least I wanted to fix it.
42:57I made a song with that feeling.
43:01Kenshi Yonezu, who climbed to the top of the Japanese music scene from his childhood,
43:07to the top of the Japanese music scene.
43:13What is the way of thinking that he cherishes when he works?
43:22I think it's the most fun to make a song alone at home.
43:27It's the most fun to be alone.
43:30It was like a calm whale.
43:33It's big.
43:35What is the most important thing that Yonezu cherishes when he works?
43:43I think it's important not to be trapped.
43:48I've been trapped since I was a kid.
43:53I've been living in my own interest.
43:57I've been living in my own interest.
44:01I've been living in my own interest.
44:04When I think back on my favorite music,
44:09I think it's a music that reaches a wide audience.
44:13I think it's a pop music.
44:15I really like music that I feel like I'm singing for myself.
44:21I feel like I'm singing for myself.
44:24I feel like I'm singing for myself.
44:30If you don't repeat the same mistakes over and over again, you won't be able to create music that reaches the audience.
44:44I think it's something we have to take great care of.
44:52Sometimes, going outside can bring pain and suffering.
44:57But I still want to be able to connect with the world and resonate with the people.
45:06That's where the expressionist Kenshi Yonezu's firm resolve lies.
45:17And after the recording, as he said...
45:21Was it okay? Was it like this?
45:24It was better than usual.
45:29It was my first time, so I'm a little nervous.
45:33Even though he's not good at talking, we were able to see Kenshi Yonezu face himself.
45:45And next week...
45:47Kenshi Yonezu's second half will continue.
