Suga Shikao new single: "Hajimari no hi" (11/25)

Pop/funk singer and songwriter Suga Shikao will release his second single of 2009, called Hajimari no hi feat. Mummy-D, on November 25th.

As the title may suggest, the single will feature the collaboration of rapper Mummy-D, part of groups RHYMESTER and Maboroshi and also a well-known name in the whole Japanese music scene, as he has already collaborated with several different kinds of artists, from KREVA to Sheena Ringo.

Hajimari no hi, an electric sound-based song, will be Suga's first song as a collaboration and will be used as the opening theme song for the anime "Tegami Bachi" starting on October 3rd. The single itself will be sold in three different editions: CD, CD+DVD and another edition, available for a limited period of time, including special contents designed and written by Asada Hiroyuki, the anime's original author.

Prior to the release date, Suga Shikao has also booked an extensive new tour called SUGA SHIKAO FUNK FIRE'09, to be held throughout October 7th and November 22nd. Shortly after it is finished, he also has a few other concerts planned until the end of the year as a part of another tour, this time named Suga Shikao JAPAN-UK Circuit. It will consist of three dates, most notably one in London, England, at the Institituon of Contemporary Arts on December 7th. This special performance, his first overseas, will be held to celebrate the 150th anniversary of the establishment of diplomatic relations between England and Japan.

I need Romanji/English for the B-sides T_T

i totally love the song! :cool

PV: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JBMrXZbFCVI

suga looks hot...:innocent

yeah the song's great but sorry to say that Mummy-D downgraded the song slightly T_T

other than that , ace stuff Suga :D

lol i love the b-side titles :P i don't think Mummy-D killed the whole song, actually. but i'd love to hear only suga's voice, haha. still, i totally love the song. i've been playing it all day :yes

^ IA. when i heard the song, i thought the rap was going to be really strange in a song like "Hajimari no Hi", but i think the transition to the rap was pretty good. it didn't kill the song for me.

at least Mummy-D's rap came in towards the end & that it only lasted for like less than a min + ?

LOL but anyway the song's nice . I like it , something different as compared to Party People :)
