Fuyu ga Owaru Maeni PV

I wouldn't really consider Shota's PVs as the best if not most entertaining but at least song wise , his discography's still ace

Fuyu ga Owaru Maeni is still awesome =D

Yeah, his PVs usually don't have much in terms of replay value. Song-wise though, he usually never disappoints so it's okay. ("Usually", because he released that horrible autotuned mess that was Winter Love Song lmao)

Anyways, Fuyu ga Owaru Maeni's PV was nice. I didn't really listen to the song when it first leaked, but now that I can hear it in HQ, I'm definitely loving it a whole lot more. I can't wait to hear the B-side since I always tend to like them as much or more so than the A-side.

It also looks like they've made a special site for the single: http://www.shimizushota.com/fuyugaowarumaeni/

And I really like the B-sides . I thought the Jazzin'park Winter Remix for Kimi ga Kurasu Machi might sound bad but I really like it :heart

Another single I really enjoy from Shota . I can't wait for more material from him <3

Shimizu Shota collaborates with Oda Kazumasa for upcoming single

On February 22nd, R&B singer Shimizu Shota will be releasing his new single, “Kimi Sae Ireba“, which will feature singer-songwriter Oda Kazumasa as a special guest.

The collaboration was put into effect after Shimizu appeared on the TBS annual Christmas program, “Christmas no Yakusoku“, back in 2009. Shimizu directly approached Oda, whom he respected both as a singer and a person.

“Kimi Sae Ireba” was written and composed by Shimizu himself. Meanwhile, Oda was in charge of the production and arrangements. The bonus DVD for the limited edition will contain footage of the two in the recording studio.

Shimizu commented, “It’s a really simple song that I made while feeling the greatness of ordinary music. It’s a very positive song. I pray that it will reach the hearts of many people.”

Additionally, the single will include a cover of Nakajima Miyuki’s “Keshou” as its coupling track.

Prior to the CD release, “Kimi Sae Ireba” will be available in Chaku-Uta form on February 1st.

Check out the track list below!

^very typical oda kazumasa cover

Radio rip of Kimi Sae Ireba

it's the 1st time I've heard Oda Kazumasa’s vocals in here & nice

I like the song too , it's very ... cheery sounding ? :laugh

This is my first time listening to Oda Kazumasa as well. He has a nice voice and it seems to go pretty well with Shota's.

Unfortunately, I'm pretty disappointed with the song. It's not bad but nothing about it makes it stand out and makes me want to listen to it again.

The original version of Keshou isn't my cup of tea either, so I guess I'm just waiting to see how Get Over U sounds like.

very typical Oda Kazumasa song...the arrangement and composition...just a very little touch of Shota...
