Cr. - tokyohive
Soulful crooner Hirai Ken (39) will be singing the theme song for TBS drama “JIN”, which premieres today, April 17th.
The theme song, “Itoshiki Hibi Yo”, will go on sale on May 4th and marks the first time in ten years Hirai has collaborated to write lyrics with music producer, Matsuo Kiyoshi (43), who is credited with two million-selling albums, including “THE CHANGING SAME”.
The singer himself took charge of composing the melody of the song, which is a heartwrenching yet warm and epic ballad. “Itoshiki Hibi Yo” perfectly fits “JIN”, whose plot centers around the irreplaceable ties between people.
TBS producer Ishimaru Akihiko expressed his confidence that “When an era is about to change greatly, no one but Hirai can convincingly convey the imminent demise of a generation of people and their way of thinking”. Hirai continued, “the theme is ‘love for an era’. I just hope the message will reach many people if not just one”.
