Ken has contributed a new song to be used for the upcoming TBS drama 4 Funkan no Marigold
This will be the 18th song that Ken has contributed to be used to promote TV dramas For now the new song's title is not known And here's the latest promo picture of Ken https://pbs.twimg.com/media/EE2xtJ2U0AEUwDD?format=jpg https://twitter.com/KEN_HIRAI_staff/...51879983026177 https://natalie.mu/music/news/348271 https://twitter.com/4mari_tbs/status...90549716340738 Er ok o_O |
July's J-WAVE LIVE 20th ANNIVERSARY EDITION of Ken's performance set that was aired via FujiTV NEXT
https://www.bilibili.com/video/av68318463 FujiTV NEXT aired the following songs of from Ken's J-WAVE LIVE 20th ANNIVERSARY EDITION set : 1) LIFE is... 2) One Love Wonderful World 3) POP STAR 4) Non Fiction The 1st 2 songs Love Love Love & Mahoutte Itte Ii Kana? were cut from the broadcast I'm real stoked that FujiTV NEXT kept Ken's performances of LIFE is... & One Love Wonderful World intact especially since he rarely perform these 2 songs nowadays I always have liked One Love Wonderful World and it's very surprising Ken performed it . Not only is it a very old song but it's 1 of the few songs that Ken sung entirely in English Just like One Love Wonderful World & Non Fiction , only an acoustic guitarist backed Ken up vocally POP STAR is quite atypical but at least Ken managed to walk around Yokohama Arena a bit instead of being rooted down in his seat x) And seeing Ken dancing a bit onstage alongside with the POP STAR mascots was quite funny haha Lastly to see Ken sing acapella in the beginning of Non Fiction , so awesome |
46th single #302 will be released on 4th Dec & this will be Ken's 1st physical release single since last Nov's half of me
#302 is the title of the song that Ken has contributed to be used to promote the TBS drama 4 Funkan no Marigold This is the 18th song that Ken has contributed to be used to promote TV dramas #302 will 1st be released digitally on 25th Oct http://www.sonymusic.co.jp/artist/KenHirai/info/511202 Sweet about time for new Ken material & for now it's not known how many versions #302 will be released in |
Ken will perform #302 for the 1st time on next week's MUSIC STATION
テレビ朝日系「ミュージックステーション」 2019年10月25日(金)21:00~21:48 <出演者および披露曲> ・関ジャニ∞「友よ」 ・THE RAMPAGE from EXILE TRIBE「SWAG & PRIDE」 ・椎名林檎「公然の秘密」 ・平井堅「#302」 ・BiSH「未定」 ・WANIMA「GONG」 https://natalie.mu/music/news/352116 Sweet |
Ken will perform #302 tomorrow for the 1st time on MUSIC STATION
A section of MUSIC STATION will feature Ken , on the top 30 songs that fans have requested him to perform during the Request Corner segment of his Ken's Bar concept concerts since he 1st started it back in 1998 And here're the 30 songs in the Request Corner list : Spoiler:
https://www.barks.jp/news/?id=1000172372 Interesting list , even some of Ken's most recently released singles also made the cut aside from the usual suspects For me I'm surprised Canvas , Missin' you ~It will break my heart~ are not in , same thing goes for Ooki na Furudokei & PAUL Not a lot like Miracles & doesn't help the song is so long , length wise but I still like it after all these years I also like style as well but oh well |

Ken will be featured on next week's CDTV
https://twitter.com/TBSCDTV/status/1188140230617923584 Ooh nice , another early TV promo for #302 Ken also performed Strawberry Sex on the latest MUSIC STATION aside from #302 https://twitter.com/KEN_HIRAI_staff/...37776512479232 |

Autographed board Ken gifted to MUSIC STATION
https://i.postimg.cc/XvBV3YvQ/vb-Z0-Ebo-Zap.jpg Kinda fitting for Ken to use lime green colour ink on the board cos that's what his current hair colour is :dead2 |
Seeing Ken's hair in shocking bright lime green in MUSIC STATION , it's just woah o_O
That is the most bold hair colour Ken has chosen & I thought when he had blonde or spiky hair , they were up there At 1st I thought Ken was wearing a wig on MUSIC STATION but nope haha The 1st #302 TV performance Ken did was so simple which speaks volume on how vocally talented he's Too bad the Strawberry Sex performance done on MUSIC STATION was too short it should have been longer :s |
