Fukuyama Masaharu - Kusunoki -500 Nen no Kaze ni Fukarete- & Genkai

&

Kusunoki -500 Nen no Kaze ni Fukarete- & Genkai are 2 songs by Fukuyama Masaharu which were released digitally on 30th June & 8th Sept respectively .

Both songs have 2 different promo tie in's .

Kusunoki -500 Nen no Kaze ni Fukarete- promoted NHK's Minna no Uta while Genkai was used to promote the Black Showman movie (released on 12th Sept in Japan) starring Fukuyama himself .

To say that both Kusunoki -500 Nen no Kaze ni Fukarete- & Genkai are like chalk and cheese is an understatement as they're 2 different type of songs but yet each of them presents 2 different musical sides to Fukuyama .

Kusunoki -500 Nen no Kaze ni Fukarete- is a fantastic touching ballad that has a strong choir backing while Genkai is entirely instrumental which's something I think Fukuyama has not released digitally before until now .

Surprisingly despite being an instrumental number , Genkai is not boring & it plays up to the fun mysterious sides pertaining to Black Showman .

Fukuyama released his latest digital released song Banyuinryoku last Thurs & Banyuinryoku will be reviewed in due time .
