In more than two years, the first MS debut on February 6, 2004, and the MS 20th anniversary special on October 13, 2006, MS, the ace program of TV Asahi, became a witness to Kiyoshi Sakamoto's growth.

MS has seen far too many future superstars, or singers who have become superstars, performing on this stage.

Whether it is Hikaru Utada when he first debuted, or Ayumi Hamasaki, who has become the first sister in the Japanese music scene, it is on the entire stage that the public can see the charm of his singer.

In the Japanese music scene, there has always been a phenomenon, that is, the yin and yang of the music scene.

It is said that among SOLO singers, there are many more excellent female SOLO singers in the Japanese music scene than excellent male SOLO singers.

Since Heisei, among the solo female singers, there are the "Four Great Singers of Heisei", Hikaru Utada, Ayumi Hamasaki, Namie Amuro, Mai Kuraki, and female singers like Mika Nakajima, Izumi Sakai, Ringo Shiina and so on.

And after entering the 21st century, excellent new female singers are also emerging, such as Ai Otsuka on the scene, as well as Aiko, Ayaka and others.

However, since Heisei, Japanese SOLO male singers, except for Masaharu Fukuyama, one of the two male gods, and Ken Hirai, who has become one of the top singers in the music world, there are no other male SOLO singers who have been widely recognized by the public.

The male solo singers in the music scene have entered the era of green and yellow, no, it can be said that it has always been green and yellow...

And after entering the 21st century, this situation has not changed much.

Even if there are excellent male singers like Nakakosuke, Naotaro Moriyama, etc.,But it's always just a flash in the pan.。。。

However, all this was changed in 2004 when a boy under the age of 14 sang a song that did not fit his age and voice and walked in front of the public.

It took more than two years for Kiyoshi Sakamoto to become the leader of the new generation of male solo singers in the Japanese music scene!

His popularity is directly after his teacher, Japan's No. 1 male SOLO singer Masaharu Fukuyama, and his fellow brother, Brother Sony, Ken Hirai.

In today's Japanese music scene, there are only two and a half male solo singers who can be called the king of heaven, the two are, Masaharu Fukuyama and Ken Hirai.

And the remaining half, to put it mildly, Kiyoshi Sakamoto.

With the decline of the Japanese record market, the decline of SOLO singers, and the advent of the group era, even the record sales of Ayumi Hamasaki, the "first sister in the Japanese music scene", have begun to decline.

He did not disappoint the public, and in just over two years, he became the youngest male singer in the history of Japanese music to achieve 7 million solo album sales!!

And today, on the stage of MS, which has gradually become a gathering place for idol groups and bands, what kind of amazing performance will he bring when he returns after half a year, this is what all the audience in front of the TV at this time is thinking in their hearts.

"Is Sakamoto Kiyoshi, the little king of the music world, still the same as half a year ago, or is he so talented and fascinated by all beings, or is he outdated and no longer popular?"

All eyes are on the big boy who is about to perform.

。。。。。。

After chatting with Tamoli for about four or five minutes, Sakamoto Kiyoshi came to the center of the stage under Tamoli's "Then please go and get ready".

Standing on the stage after a long absence, Kiyoshi Sakamoto suddenly felt like a world away.

I still like the feeling of standing on this stage and performing!"

Kiyoshi Sakamoto, who was wearing headphones and carrying a guitar on his back, stood in front of the microphone, looked at the camera, and threw a handsome INK with a smile.

"Ahh ”

"Sakamoto-kun!!"

Although the singers at the scene couldn't see the reaction of the audience in front of the TV, judging from the screaming reactions of the female audience at the scene, Kiyoshi Sakamoto's charming smile and handsome little movements, they wanted to come more violently!!

However, after a mischievous wink, Kiyoshi Sakamoto put his slender fingers on the guitar strings, his mouth to the microphone, and quietly waited for the performance to begin.

Kiyoshi Sakamoto learned that the MS program team asked him to sing a new song when he returned at MS's 20th anniversary special.

He thought of a song that was very appropriate for the occasion and suitable for him as his comeback song.

"ひまわり" (sunflower).

This song, which will only be released in 2009, is a very energetic, positive and inspirational song.

The original singer is Yusuke Kamiji of the shame heart group, he is an amphibious artist who has a good development in film and television dramas and the music industry.

When he starred in film and television dramas, he used his real name, Yusuke Ueji, and when he released a single, he would use the stage name "Yusuke".

And this song is one of his most famous songs.

He just likes this song, which can bring a kind of positive energy to the audience, and hopes that everyone who hears this song can live every day with full vitality.

And the name of this song, just like the existence of this person, in the eyes of fans, Kiyoshi Sakamoto is the sun in his heart, and they are the sunflowers who are always towards him!

It can be said that this song is because Kiyoshi Sakamoto wants to thank the fans who have been by his side, so he chose this song as a new song for his return.

He believes that after hearing this song, fans will definitely receive gratitude from his heart through Kiyoshi Sakamoto's singing.

"Thank you for your continued support, thank you for your attention, thank you for your love for me ... ”

This is what Kiyoshi Sakamoto wants to express.

。。。

The lights of the stage were once again focused on the boy, who first whistled at the microphone in front of him.

Before the audience could react, his fingers on the guitar strings gently plucked the guitar strings, and in an instant, a crisp guitar melody was transmitted from his exclusive guitar to the ears of everyone watching the performance.

The audience who were immersed in this beautiful guitar melody, when Kiyoshi Sakamoto's voice came out with guitar accompaniment, they all instantly felt an idea in their hearts.

The big boy who is as warm as the sun is back!

"Blue Sky and White Clouds"

"Can't stop the sun"

"Because you're here, I can laugh"

"A sad parting"

"The best encounter"

"Miracles are born here"

"La-la-thank you"

This song "ひまわり" is a chorus from the beginning, and it directly expresses the singer's gratitude to the audience through the straightforward lyrics.

Especially from Kiyoshi Sakamoto's warm voice, every sentence sung made fans feel as if they were being shone by the sun, and their bodies were warm.

"The sun shines on the waves, sparkling and lapping on the beach"

"The blue sea and the sky are one color"

“。。。 ”

The lyrics of this "ひまわり" don't have too many gorgeous rhetoric, the melody is also a simple guitar accompaniment, and the chorus is not too exciting, but it's a simple lyrics and melody, with Sakamoto Kiyoshi's voice, it makes the whole song more energetic, and when people listen to it, they feel refreshed and want to run.

is also because the chorus part is too "saliva", so that after Sakamoto Kiyoshi sang the first short paragraph, when he sang the chorus for the second time, the audience at the scene could follow Sakamoto Kiyoshi and sing together.

In addition, on the big screen behind Kiyoshi Sakamoto, it is the lyrics of his song, which also makes the chorus of the scene, "ひまわり", a song that has not been heard before, become a possibility.

"Blue Sky and White Clouds"

"Can't stop the sun"

"Because you're here, I can laugh"

"A sad parting"

"The best encounter"

"Miracles are born here"

"La-la-thank you"

And seeing Sakamoto Kiyoshi's expressiveness on the stage, as well as his uniqueness, can drive the emotions of the audience and let the audience enjoy the warmth and appeal of the song together, whether it is the audience in front of the TV or the singers and guests at the scene, they are all sighing in their hearts.

"Kiyoshi Sakamoto on the stage, no matter when, it's still so dazzling... ”

At this time, all the spotlights hit him at once, which made Sakamoto Kiyoshi even more person, as if he had become a self-luminous light, dazzling that people couldn't see the figure in it, only his beautiful singing voice echoed in the air.

At the end of the song, only Kiyoshi Sakamoto's voice remains.

"Maple leaves dyed, snow flying"

"The cherry blossoms are floating and the sun is shining"

"Always in the shape of yellow love"

"That's my sunflower!"

After the performance, Sakamoto Kiyoshi, after bowing deeply, turned around and left in a chic manner, only the moment he turned around, the smile on the corner of his mouth could show his mood at this time.

"I'm back ... ”

He muttered.

I don't know if this sentence is said to the fans who have been waiting for a long time, and the fans, or to this shining stage...

Amid a round of applause, Kiyoshi Sakamoto returned backstage.

As soon as he carefully put his guitar into the guitar case, Kiyoshi Sakamoto saw Arashi Goko walking over here, ready to perform.

When Sakamoto Kiyoshi saw Lan and the others, he was also stunned, and then greeted him.

And when Lan saw Sakamoto Kiyoshi walking in front of them, several people's faces were a little unnatural, and they suddenly didn't know how to face it, this junior who was much younger than him.

They also know that the order of appearance this time must be a little wrong.

That's why their complexions are unnatural.

However, before they could figure out how to face Kiyoshi Sakamoto, Kiyoshi Sakamoto walked in front of them.

"daddy!"

"Seniors!"

Kiyoshi Sakamoto, who narrowed his eyes with a smile, said very politely, especially on the word "senior", which accentuated his tone.

After finishing speaking, Sakamoto Kiyoshi drifted away, leaving only a few people who looked at each other.
