Yuta Kaji is not only a stylist, but also a photographer, filmmaker, and brand director, and he freely engages in expressive activities without being restricted by titles. In this series of articles, we will randomly introduce the product descriptions of "SANSE SANSE" written by Yuta Kaji himself. This time, we will introduce a story about a jacket inspired by an actor who used to be a back-up dancer for Keisuke Kuwata.
Do you know Keisuke Kuwata's "Sad Feelings"?
It is a very wonderful song, of course, but it is also the best song with a very perfect balance of a sad yet rhythmic song with the punchy rhythm of Kuwata-san singing and the three backing dancers dancing in the background in unison.
The three backup dancers were named "Shonan-tai," and the item was inspired by a stadium jacket worn by one of them, Yasufumi Terawaki.
Sometimes when I want to see the "Sad Feeling" dance, I look for it on YouTube, but the video is often removed due to copyright issues. I thought it would be good to have it firmly burned into my eyes when I watch it. The performance on a singing show hosted by Tetsuko Kuroyanagi is excellent.
