^yay! I’ve been waiting for this for a long time! Did they get uploaded in HD (upscale probably) like Ayu’s PVs or are they just dvd quality?

That's great! It's so annoying on the dvd when they put widescreen video into the square video format so it's only a small video on full screen...that never made any sense to me

I wasn't aware Ken started an Instagram! I just kind of stumbled upon it by accident.
It's a shame that he (like Kumi) isn't able to properly celebrate a major anniversary year. Hopefully he'll be able to at least have a tour or arena event before years end. |

MTV Japan aired MTV UNPLUGGED KEN HIRAI last Sat
https://www.bilibili.com/video/BV1Ge411W7P8 Still a great concert . At the time in 2003 when Ken performed at MTV Unplugged in New York , he was the 3rd Japanese artist to perform MTV UNPLUGGED KEN HIRAI setlist Spoiler:
Even back then , Ken's decision to cover certain classic songs has Ken's Bar elements which's not surprising as MTV UNPLUGGED KEN HIRAI was released on the same day as Ken's Bar 1 Let alone up to now , Ken still prefers to perform LIFE is... over LIFE is... ~another story~

Luckily you can watch the full MTV UNPLUGGED KEN HIRAI via https://www.bilibili.com/video/BV1sx...01061452039127 Part 3 of the link features Ken & his backup musicians exploring New York and his backup musicians are more or less the same folks that have worked with him pretty much from Day 1 until now

^ Thank you, I'm excited to see the full show! Was it part of any dvd? Yes, I recognized his band members, pretty amazing how they're still working together. I think it's a great thing.

Ken's staff commented that Kaibutsu-san PV has received more than 10 million views since the PV was released 2 months ago
https://twitter.com/KEN_HIRAI_staff/...31526717423616 Wow & for Ken's standalone PV , no surprises that his most viewed PV on YouTube is POP STAR

^ great news that they are allowing the PVs to stay online. Can’t wait to watch the 15th anniversary show, I haven’t seen it in a long time.

Yeah agree , strange that the other PVs of Ken have not been uploaded yet , maybe Sony will do that soon ?
I have the Ken Hirai 15th Anniversary Special!! Vol.4 concert stored inside my hard disk , I also should rewatch that concert again soon x)

^ Hopefully they will. The 15th Anniversary Youtube concert video is in HD. I just started watching it so it could just be upscale...is it available on blu-ray or is this special for youtube since they upscaled his PVs also?

In fact , it's the 1st concert that's included as part of Ken's studio albums Prior to JAPANESE SINGER , Ken's past studio albums only had 1 version release While for the 35 PVs uploaded on Ken's YouTube , his 1st 23 singles' PVs have not been released in Blu-ray format If you buy the 3 CDs + Blu-ray version of Utabaka 2 , the PVs in the Blu-ray are from Bye My Melody until Non Fiction
