Actor Nagae Ryoki’s first single “Moonlight” will be digitally released on various streaming services starting at midnight on the 26th.
Nagae began his singing career at the same time as the release of this song.
Nagae began his entertainment career in earnest in 2009, appearing as a TV warrior in the NHK Educational TV show “Tensai Terebi-kun Series,” and in 2015 he was selected to play the lead role in the popular stage play “Hetalia” series. This is Nagae’s signature work and he continues to play the lead role to this day.
He is also an actor currently active in various popular productions, including the stage productions “Aoyama Operetta” and “Bungo Stray Dogs.”
During his acting career, Nagae has often sang in musicals and other productions, and has earned a reputation for his naturally melodious singing voice.
Nagae himself wrote the lyrics and composed the music for this song.
In addition, tak, who is in charge of the music for the musical “Hetalia,” will be in charge of arrangements, making this a true collaboration between two people who have been creating popular works for many years.
Nagae revealed the thoughts he put into the song’s title “Moonlight” and lyrics, saying, “The ideals I had when I was little and the reality I faced as an adult. It was always in the middle of the night that I wanted to immerse myself in these conflicting feelings.” He added, “I would be happy if I can fill even just a little of the void in your heart when you listen to this song.”
“This is my first song release, so there may be some imperfections, but I’ve put 100% of my effort into it at this point. Please listen to it a lot. I’m very grateful,” Nagae said, expressing his wishes.
An official channel for Nagae Ryoki has also been opened on YouTube, and various original content will be distributed in the future.
Expectations are high for Nagae Ryoki’s success in a new genre.
