If you like his dance, you gonna enjoy “Flamingo”. His vocaloid stuffs are LEGEND too, but it’s quite hard to listen if you’re not familiar with vocaloid sound (trying some 歌ってみた would be easier) My favourite songs are Lemon, Loser, Flamingo, POP SONG, Matryoshka, Panda Hero, Mrs. Pumpkin no Kokkei na Yume, Rinne !! (last 4 are vocaloids)

definately Flamingo.. that bass, lyrics, singing, and DANCE are why this guy is a huge multi mega maga pop star!
He truly is a genius, and glad that he went back to making songs as himself. Personal faves/recommendations would be Flamingo, Orion, Suna no Wakusei, Umi to Yuurei, Paprika, Uma to Shika, Campanella, and Shinigami.
Finally someone reacting to Kenshi! I struggle to find reactions to him. He is one of the best Japanese artists. I can't believe more people don't talk about him.

The first time I listened to his music, I immediately fall in love with him. I've become such a fan for him that I listened to all of his album from his HACHI days until Kenshi Yonezu days. And I love all of his music, every album have really good songs that you can enjoy. He's such a complete artist. There's like an album preview for each albums that he have, so like there'll be a clip of every song in each album in that video. And that's actually one of the way to discover a lot of his MVless songs. His singles are also great. Just like his albums.

Kenshi Yonezu/Hachi is a LEGEND. Even big J-artists are inspired of him; Eve, Ado, Vaundy, YOASOBI, Mafumafu, etc. He has high-functioning autism, can draw, dance, compose and write cohesive songs. I really can't believe not much talk about him outside of Japan😢 Your video really makes me happy to see other foriegners taking interest of him and his works, thank you so much!😭❤

You're right he's insanely talented. I recommend "Umi no Yuurei", "Orion", and "M87" (tho honestly I love everything by him, these are the ones that really got me in the feels) I'll be happy if you listen to some of his vocaloid stuff too. It takes getting used to, but vocaloid music has a certain vibe that real human singers don't, and it has it's own charm. Personally I really like "Donut Hole" and "Suna no Wakusei" (he has a self-cover version where he sings Suna no Wakusei with his own voice)

his voice is so incredible, like it has a certain quality that has me completely in love with it; it is so soft but can be so hard/crunchy and just sticks out beyond the instrumentals when I first discovered him I just *knew* i found a new favourite artist, same as I did with fujii kaze not too long ago. which i find really interesting because i feel like their voices are very similar in how they feel to me, they both have that show-stopping quality imo also to me he is an absolute no-skip artist, like he *does not* miss
He was very popular in a video sharing site when he was amateur. Two of my friends already knew his name before he made devue. Yonezu Kenshi is genius. All of his songs are perfect. He is No.1 artist in Japan now. Because of this I guess his songs have a little lonely mood. I really like this.

He also understands something very spooky that very few get in perspective to the history.. especially when in Loser, he understands the dark issues of self deletion.. as with Ian Curtis and Curt Cobain.. also he drew all those animations in Eine Klein

About "lemon". When I first heard this song, I thought it might have been inspired by the story of a Japanese Meiji era artist Kotaro Takamura(1883-1956) and his wife Chieko(1914-1938). Kotaro was a poet, a sculptor, a painter, and many other artists, but while his wife was aiming to become an artist, she became mentally ill due to the pressure from her husband's talent, and Kotaro went mad and weakened. While watching over her, he wrote a poem about her appearance. I feel Kotaro's words in the content of the lyrics "Lemon". Although my interpretation may be wrong.

He said in interview that Lemon is made for a tv drama called 'unnatural', a drama about death. But while working on the song, unfortunately his uncle died, and the song was dedicated to his late uncle.

I fell in love with Kenshi's music so much more than I ever thought I would. And I agree, my ears thrive off of unique artists. My curiosity was piqued with Peace Sign (opening song for My Hero Academia), and I got hooked after Flamingo. For some reason when I see him in PV's he really reminds me of a real-life L (Death Note). Definitely continue checking out his music, it's a real treat!

Kenshi Yonezu really is a genius who can't make a single bad song. I recommend Uma to Shika and Pale blue for delicious key changes, Umi no yuurei for beautiful arrangement, vocals and mv, as well as Kanden, Shinigami and flamingo which are all total bops

I CLICKED SO FUCKING FAST THIS IS ALL I EVER WANTED Edit: absolutely recommend checking out “Pop Song” and “Flamingo” if you want a wild ride, or “Pale Blue” if you want to cry. Basically the two ends of the Yonezu Kenshi scale. His album Stray Sheep is straight up my favourite album of all time and I highly recommend it
Kenshi Yonezu is a Genius Musician of Japan. He can play many instruments, arranger, composer, record producer, Vocaloid Producer, (album cover) illustrator, music video conceptor, one of best Japanese illustrator, animator (for his MV), singer, songwriter, performer, and he also good dancer. Mostly his songs break the record with 1st place chart, sales, downloaded and a lot of viewed on YT. His new Album Stray Sheep (5th Album) sold over 2 millions sales in 8 months. Amazing talent!
