*Members YOUSUKE, OSA, GACKY
In addition to their good looks, the rapidly growing vocal group captivates them with their exquisite harmonies woven together by the high vocal skills of each member. It has gained support from female fans of the middle generation, and the passionate live performance, which is filled with enthusiastic cheers, has also been well received. He has released five singles since his debut single.
All of these have been used in tie-ups for programs such as TV Asahi’s Jun Stroll and TBS’s Hiruobi!, and are also well-known for their songwriting skills. The third single “Shonen” won first place on the Oricon Enka and Popular Songs Chart (as of July 11, 2022).
And this time,The sixth single, “DO IT! ~Dream Lover~” will be released on June 25th. The lyrics were written by Mr. Okura from Ketsumeishi.This is the first time that LAST FIRST has released a single after receiving the song. Since the LAST FIRST members loved Ketsumeishi’s songs since they were teenagers and listened to them often, so they accepted the passionate offer they asked for, and Okura decided to provide the lyrics. The story depicts the pathetic yet passionate feelings of men who want to seduce women at clubs, can’t give up, and Okura has provided a completely new world of lyrics for LAST FIRST, which has previously featured many songs about life’s cheering songs and pure love.
The club tracks are characterized by a nostalgic, melancholy melody that is typical of popular songs.
It is a party song that travels between the Reiwa and Heisei eras.
Furthermore, choreographer Horiko Asami (in charge of live shows by Do Come and Fukuyama Masaharu and various TV commercials) is in charge of choreography for the “Do it! Do it!…” part that appears in the chorus. This is a simple and addictive dance that expresses the spirit of a man who is trying to seduce women, with gestures to adjust his poeticism. It’s truly a piece that you can enjoy listening to and dancing.
The jacket was photographed by renting a nightclub, and the result was a fusion of Showa retro and a futuristic feel.
Released in two types of A and B types with different coupling songs.
LASTFIRST Leader YOSUKE Comments
“This was the first time I was able to provide a work. What was very refreshing was that it gave me a deeper opportunity to think about the meaning of words. I can easily express myself when I sing songs, but when I saw the lyrics I received, I often made me think about the meaning of words, thinking, “Is that what I mean? Is this what I mean?” In order to express them as our own, I put my energy into it. And for this work, it seems like a dream come true, when Okura from Ketsumeishi gave me the lyrics. I don’t believe it yet (lol). After all, we were listening to Ketsumeishi and lived our youth. When recording, I remember back then when I listened to Ketsumeishi’s music and listened to them intently. I’m so grateful! No matter which lyrics, songs, and dance, we’re showing you a completely new LAST FIRST, so please listen to them.”
Comment on Ketsumeishi Okura
“We created the lyrics while playing catch with the members. We can dance with the nostalgic atmosphere.
It has elements and is a danceable song. I think it’s a modern-day Showa pop song. Please remember the songs and have fun at karaoke and live shows! ”
