■”(The three of us singing our alma mater’s school song) It feels like (the three of us) have become one (lol)” (Masayuki Suzuki)
Masayuki Suzuki performs his debut song “Runaway” on “THE FIRST TAKE” (*YouTube premiere will be released at 10 p.m. on December 23rd).
This video is a director’s cut version of “REAL TIME THE FIRST TAKE,” a one-shot live distribution project held on November 15th to commemorate the 5th anniversary of “THE FIRST TAKE”‘s channel. The video for “Megumi no Hito” was released prior to December 9th, and this video has exceeded 1 million views in less than two days (3.61 million views as of December 23rd). It continues to be well-received, ranking at the top of YouTube’s popularity ranking.
Masayuki Suzuki will be celebrating his 45th anniversary as an artist in 2025, and his performance at “THE FIRST TAKE” will be attended by Rats & Star members Yoshio Sato and Nobuyoshi Kuwano, who will also be on the 45th anniversary tour. In “Megumi no Hito”, the original members showed off their lively performances and talks, but in this “Runaway”, they not only performed a one-shot performance of the same song, but also performed in Tokyo, the alma mater of the three members. A surprise performance of an a cappella version of Omori Daiichi Junior High School, Ota Ward, Tokyo! In addition, there will be an unexpected Q&A corner where you can fully enjoy the talk between the three.
“Runaway” is Masayuki Suzuki’s debut song, released on February 25, 1980 as Chanels (later renamed Rats & Stars).
