Tokyo Ska Paradise Orchestra, which celebrates its 35th anniversary this year, has released the first single from their “NO BORDER Trilogy”, “Ichi Hi Hana feat. imase & Narashino High School Wind Orchestra”, digitally today, and the music video was released on the official Ska Paradise YouTube channel.
The music video was directed by Tanabe Hidenobu, who has worked on numerous projects for artists including Southern All Stars, Hirai Ken, Aiko, and Official Hige Dandism, as well as Skapara songs such as “Ribbon feat. Sakurai Kazutoshi (Mr.Children),” “Good Morning~Blue Daisy feat. Aiko,” and “Monhakuchou feat. Ishihara Shinya (Saucy Dog).”
The music video was shot at Narashino High School, the same place where they shot the music video for “Kaze no Profile feat. Narashino High School Brass Band,” released on the 30th anniversary of their debut. Imase’s beautifully-sounding, unique falsetto vocals, the powerful performance of Skapara, and the “beautiful booming sound” of about 200 students from the Narashino High School Brass Band create an overwhelming presence.
What’s more, the MV also features special appearances by Nippon Television announcers who are in charge of “ZIP!”, including announcer Mizuno. It’s a “NO BORDER” MV that is just like Skapara, so be sure to check it out.
Additionally, the latest artist photos of Skapara and imase were released.
All ten members are wearing matching suits, bringing out imase’s sexy new charm in the artist photo.
This song has also been chosen as the new theme song for the Nippon Television morning information program “ZIP!”
This song has been aired since July 1st (Monday) as the program’s third theme song, following Tatsuro Yamashita’s “MY MORNING PRAYER,” which has been the theme song for “ZIP!” since it began airing in April 2011, and Mr.Children’s “The song of praise,” which has been the theme song since March 2020.
Today, the special website for the 35th anniversary of Skapara’s debut was also released. It seems to have information on everything from their 35th anniversary KICK OFF song “Kaze ni Tatagu Blues feat. TAKUMA (10-FEET)” to their latest songs, so let’s check it out.
