Theme: Utaite!
These people who upload themselves singing on video uploading sites
Are not called kashu (歌手 → singers, especially professional ones),
But are called utaite (歌い手).
Among them, there are many people that cover Vocaloid songs, anime songs and game songs.
Within those people, people that release major label CDs,
And people who hold live concerts are present as well.
A particular characteristic of those people are~
"They don't really show their faces that much,
In a certain sense, they're mysterious people."
Right, not showing their faces, many utaite are existences surrounded by a veil.
Hmm, I want to know more about these utaite!
That being said!
For this program, we've obtained a video clip of this person's super treasured appearance!
And then--
"Thank you for having me~"
A successful one-on-one interview with this person too!
Moreover!
In the studio, oh my, a live singing showcase!
"I'm so glad to be alive~"
"She's crying-?!"
This special feature about these 'utaite' capturing the hearts of teenagers all over,
Let's start it!!
First of all!
Asked to 11,970 teenage girls,
The most liked utaite top 3!
In 3rd place is!
"I like this so much--"
Amatsuki!
Uploading videos ever since 2010,
Until now, he's an utaite that reaches around 3 to 6 million video playbacks.
His charm points are~
"Part if it is because he sings arranges for songs,
He's really cool ❤"
"She's so cute~"
"He sings freely."
"I really like the arrange!"
Other than that,
'A young boy-like crystal clear voice is really charming' kind of voice.
After having fulfilled a major debut in 2014,
("Listening to this, you'll really want to see his face.") He continues uploading videos as an utaite.
Continuing on!
In 2nd place is!
Soraru!
"What a nice voice." "A really good voice." "A really good voice~"
"Ah, how nice~ This is totally drawing me in--"
He started uploading videos since 2008.
He is also able to write song compositions by himself.
After successfully having his solo performance in Yokohama Arena and such,
The field of possibility for his activities has been widening.
An example of Soraru using his specialty is-- this voice!
"For Soraru-san, his low voice is really wonderful,
It has a great compatibility (with my tastes)."
With a low bass tone and deepness, his voice is often said to be a "handsome guy voice" / ikemen voice,
He continues to draw in fans.
And finally, at 1st place!! [ oh man i wonder who it is ]
"Aah cute!" "So cute~" "Cuuute~"
Mafumafu!
"Ah, how cute!" "So cute~"
Despite being a man, he possesses a female-like high toned voice.
Moreover, the delicate, yet difficult-to-understand lyrics of his compositions seem to craft a world of his own.
"Based on the song, he can change the way he sings."
If it's gentle then he'd sing gently,
If it's a song that goes like, 'gatsun!', somehow,
He'd sing it powerfully. That sort of thing."
From performing with musical instruments to even mixing, he can do it himself,
As he calls himself, a jack of all trades! (nandemoya - lit. someone that can do anything)
That being said! The most liked utaite chosen by teenage girls are!
Amatsuki! Soraru! Mafumafu! These three!
"What do you think? They're cool."
"They're so cool~" "It was wonderful!"
"That last one... was a guy?"
"He's a guy."
"His voice sounded completely like a girl's!"
"Right?!"
"I felt like I was gonna melt, just now."
"About to melt? (lol)"
As a result of these, Akka who's a regular at utaite live concerts says--?
"My friends had a method to drag me into the road of liking utaite,"
"A method?"
"At the very start, they made me listen to Soraru-san."
"At first, with Soraru-san's low voice, I was entranced,
When I was thinking "Ah, how ikemen",
Next, they made me listen to Amatsuki-san.
As for Amatsuki-san, his voice is high, but he lets out a boy-ish voice.
And from there, I was thinking "Ah, a high voice might be unexpectedly cool too!".
And then lastly, with Mafumafu-san,
"Ah, it's high and girl-like, what a cute voice!" and he uses his throat so strongly too."
"With this, be it a close friend, or anyone,
You can make anyone fall deep into this swamp that is the path of Utaite."
[ basically "this is how you can get anyone to fall into utaite hell" ]
"So that's how you bait them in, 1 - Sora, 2 - Ama, 3 - Mafumafu."
And now! Releasing of a super treasured video clip!!
Most liked utaite rank 1 Mafumafu-san has offered R the very best scenes of his appearance in his live concerts!
What kind of live concert is it?
Have you been moved by Mafumafu-san's live?
To 11,970 teenage girls nationwide, we tried to ask "What is an utaite's charm?"
Ranked number 1 is!
Voice and singing ability is amazing!
If we try looking at utaite's videos--
Voices are individually unique, and there are many that have outstanding singing ability.
For Ogawa-san who's a music magazine editor and is very knowledgeable about utaite,
"Songs like vocaloid songs, even though they've never had an actual person sing them before as a basis,
There are times when they (utaite) will be able to sing them."
Right, there are utaite that possess singing ability that can let them sing even Vocaloid songs that have a wide vocal range and fast tempos.
For example this song--
Female utaite Ikasan can, by herself, can be able to use 8 varieties of female and male voices.
Let's try to listening to it a bit!
Whoaa, amazing! As expected!
An utaite's charm, Ranked 2 is!
Their original songs are fascinating!
For popular utaite, they still abide by covering Vocaloid songs and such.
There are many cases where they sing original song as well.
Within those, there are also those that make self-compose their songs too.
Voices that deliver their outlook on the world are numerous.
An utaite's charm, Ranked 3 is!
They're within close distance to the fans!
According to questionaires... Utaite...
"In concerts, they invite us to go backstage!"
"They followed me back!"
It seems that there are cases that this happens.
This kind of closeness is something that can barely be found with major artists.
"In 'live song delivery'-- It's something where they'll deliver songs requests live,
And so in the comments "I want you to sing this song!" "I want you to sing this song!" you'd send that,
And there are times they'll sing it for you."
"After all, I think If my requests can be answered then I'd definitely want to."
An utaite's charm, Ranked 4 is!
You can listen to all sorts of different ways utaite sing the same song
Here we have a Vocaloid song singing about the parting of two lovers, Charles.
Many utaite are doing covers of it, however!
When Dasoku who's charm point is his bass voice sings,
"It's completely different!"
Somehow, you can hear the sadness in it.
Next, when Megatera Zero whose specialty is his rough edgy voice sings it,
"Wow! There are so many ways they sing it."
With vigor, a fleeting love!
It seems many teenage girls enjoy the same songs based on the mood rather than the utaite, they say.
An utaite's charm, Ranked 5 is!
The special feeling of not being able to see their appearances much
"You don't really see their faces anywhere huh? I want to see them."
"You can't see them often, but it was mentioned earlier right? You can go see them in live concerts, it seems."
"Now, let's go see the data we've collected from one of those live concert venues itself."
Hello~ Arun here!
The place we've come in hopes of seeing utaite is Takamatsu city in the Kanagawa prefecture.
I hear 6 popular utaite are gonna have a live concert in this venue!
It's 5 hours before the opening, but fans are already gathering!
"5 hours prior?"
If you try to investigate how severe it is...
"Wow"
It's still going on and on!
"Wow..." "I wonder how many people there are?"
Somehow-- It even reaches 300 meters!
Where did you come from?
"From Okayama..." [ according to google maps that's 75.8 km from the venue ]
"We came through the Great Seto Bridge."
"From Hyogo Prefecture." [ 158 km ]
So they're popular enough to have people rushing from outside the province huh...
Roaming about this early is so they can buy goods of the utaite they like.
There are even things that immediately run out of stock, it seems!
She sure bought a lot huh...
"They're buying so much."
There are lots of different goods but...
Things showing utaite's appearance are mostly illustrations! We have to enter the venue after all!
Now! Let's embark to the inside of the venue~
"Uwah, I wanna go~"
Finally! we can see utaite's appearances!
"Hurry up, hurry up..."
Or, so you think but... You can only record up to this far. [ Filming not allowed ]
We couldn't see utaite's appearances...
"For what purpose did we even go... Give me a break..."
After that, we asked to collect data from tons of utaite but...
We couldn't get a good reply~
At that time, from a certain person, we received a positive reply!
"No way--" "Really?!"
Amatsuki-san who entered the rankings of the previous Most Liked Utaite poll,
Offered a video clip of his appearance in a live concert!
Finally we can see his appearance!
That video clip is~ Here!
Ahh, how wonderful~
Moreover, he even let us do an interview!
Finally! Face-to-face with Amatsuki-san!
"My heart's beating really fast..."
How exciting~
"Thank you for having me~"
Ah... Showing his face isn't allowed after all...
But this is a once-in-a-lifetime chance! We tried asking Amatsuki-san questions teenaged girls were curious about~
"What made you decide 'I'll try being an utaite'?
[ Question 1 ] [ What reason made you start being an utaite? ]
"Well, it was like that, right from the start I liked listening to music,
And just around the timing when I was graduating high school and was about to go to university,
Somehow all sorts of people were having fun doing things like releasing music on the internet,
From there, I was thinking 'That seems fun...' and then it just suddenly started from there."
Continuing on, [ Question 2 ] If you didn't become an utaite, what would you be doing right now?
"Well, for university, I went to a university for childcare,
If it was that kind of job I'd do my best~ I thought,
But in the midst of that, well, I found something I liked so much more, it's that sort of thing."
Furthermore, this question too,
"Why do you get along so well (with other utaite)? Something like that, I'm kinda curious." "Yeah, I'm curious about that too."
Here we have Amatsuki-san and utaite Hashiyan-san's collab! Amatsuki-san collabs a ton with other utaite.
"Various utaite do performance live concerts, that sort of thing is something present in this field.
Just by being a singer, there's a big possibility of meeting others.
And from there, there are people you get along with.
For me personally, somehow there are a lot of people in the same kind of community around me."
And so, the final question! Why don't you show your face that much?
"Well, in the first place I've never been the type of person that has confidence in things like my face or such.
So somehow if I show my face-- Don't places like the internet say all sorts of stuff?
And well, I don't like that kind of thing.
For artists, it's like, that sort of stuff isn't really necessary, is it? When you listen to their music. That's how I feel."
"What's with those happy-looking faces?!"
"Well, each word he said had a lot of weight into it, and my heart started beating really fast."
"I get it!"
"Other than that, like the reason why he hides his face so much is because he isn't confident about it.
Wondering so much about that the internet would say."
"Ain't he definitely cool though?!" "He's definitely cool though!"
"The fact that he sings is cool too, right."
"It's the end for us guys now huh!"
"Isn't it better to just feign ignorance?"
"Should I try being more forward?" "Yes, sure. Sure..."
Admist that, there's also an utaite that's ultra successful!
In the span of ten years, a man who keeps standing as an utaite: Gero!
He first started uploading videos in 2008.
Driving a hard punch with his singing, fans and even other utaite alike,
Are hooked at first listen.
Having his major debut in 2013, he works on even anime songs and the like!
"That being said, let us welcome him on stage, go on ahead!"
"Excuse me!" "Thank you for having me!"
"Yes, yes, welcome!" "Thank you very much."
"It's Gero-san~!"
"Thank you very much."
"It's a pleasure to meet you!"
"Just by breathing the same air in the same place as him, I'm..."
"Wait but nobody said my name just now right?! You were all being a bit cautious."
"Does anyone have anything they want to ask?"
"Was there anything you were glad you became an utaite for, and on the contrary anything that troubles you?"
"Something I'm glad about really was, by doing music, something I like, I can feed myself."
"There are all sorts of genres and it's fun."
"And by doing something like this, I like doing concerts, so if I do a lot of concerts, it's something fun to me."
"If it's something that troubles me...
In particular there isn't anything, but... I'd be a lot better if I didn't have a name like this..."
"You seem to shout quite a lot, isn't finding a good environment for recording kind of hard?"
"Well, so it's all the same quality and such, I ask everyone to borrow a room that's soundproof."
"Also, with myself, at the very start, I would bring huge baggage bringing my computer and stuff,
I'd go and bring it to a karaoke place."
"So like, with ballads they have a really solemn tune,
I'd be singing tear-jerking ballads, and if you listen veeery closely, from the other room,
"After all I still like you~" [ part of a very old song lots of japanese people like to sing in karaoke w ]
"Another person singing can be heard."
"So it was like that?"
"Also, another question,"
"Since the boundary between utaite and singers are quite vague,
For Gero-san, what are the differences?"
"To be honest, I don't know either."
"But (being an utaite) is has a lot of freedom."
It seems there's something he has to say that proves how free utaite are!
"Just recently, a person by the name 'halyosy'-san offered me a song composition,
HoneyWorks helped arranged the song, and we uploaded a chorus of 25 people singing it."
That video is right here!
The magic of ikebo--! Amazing!!
"How did you manage that? Must've taken a lot of time."
"Everyone was all over the place."
"Since it wouldn't assemble into one style, so on LINE, I reached out to 25 people.
'I have something like this' 'If you'd like, is there a possibility you could participate?'
After a few days and months, 'Please give me your vocal data'."
"Without meeting, huh." "Yes,without meeting."
"How about an afterparty?" "There was none."
"So after it was done it was just 'Good job!'"
"On LINE, with a sticker, 'Good job everyone!'."
"Just drinking beer alone--"
"Just that (lol)"
And here, Akka and Sakura have a request for Gero-san,
"Can you sing at least a single line from a song, for the people who can't really go to concerts..."
"If there's a possibility! I'd like to hear it..."
"What should I do..."
"This is... quite the troubling thing huh--"
"What kind of song perhaps?"
"Kinyoubi no Ohayaou, or something."
"Alright!"
"It's okay?!" "Ehh--"
Sorry for asking for so much~
Then, please and thank you!
"I'm so happy to be alive~"
"She's crying?!"
"Ehh-- She's really crying!"
"Excuse me,"
[ caption: Even I can do that!! ]
"Thank you very much"
"Let's end this here? It's no good after all (lol)"
Gero singing for real onstage is for the end of the show! Don't miss it!
When we asked 11,970 teenage girls, 54% of them wanted to face the challenge of becoming an utaite!
So here, two people from R will dare to try becoming utaite! Supporting them is~
Young but famous in the Vocaloid community, coach HachioujiP!
"Ehh--" "No way!"
Making his own compositions and letting Vocaloids sing to them, he's a producer that publicly posts those works.
He's even offered songs for real singer Nakagawa Shoko.
Furthermore, he's also done collaborations with many various utaite.
"What's so special is that everyone's having fun freely,
So I completely think it's best that you should sing whatever song you like."
Hence, let the challenge to be an utaite, start!
What these two will be singing is the previously introduced song, Charles.
"By the way, how do you two want to sing? Do you have any sort of impression in mind?"
"I wonder... Somehow I want to sing in a cool fashion."
"I want to sing high notes in a way that makes it sound pretty? I guess."
"Then, let's start."
Now that their ideal impressions are decided, for the mean time, they'll try singing!
"Is Joutarou gonna be okay..."
Joutarou! You don't seem very cool at all.
Continuing on, Shui will try singing too, but...
"Have mercy on us!"
"Wait wait-- it's really hard!"
"Ehh-- Have mercy on us, c'mon--"
"Do your best!!"
First go, not looking well at all.
HachioujiP cuts the parts that Joutarou and Shui will sing respectively.
He made it so the two can concentrate on only the parts they'll sing.
Afterwards, earnestly practicing!
And, finally! They try recording!
"That's good!" "It was good?!"
"Your effort practicing is showing results." "I'm glad!"
"So like this, let's try recording another take."
"So you can record it no matter how times too~" "Right, exactly."
For songs, you can take parts and record as much as you want.
From there, you can choose the parts sung well and connect them all together.
"Hmm... This 'waratte' part..."
"The way you said it so strongly, I like it."
"Oh so you liked it?!"
("A misleading compliment!") Next is Joutarou!
From HachioujiP is this piece of advice, ("So there are producers like this huh.")
"At first, it's okay if you look at other singers, and think 'That person sang like this~' or something like that."
"Ohh, I see."
"At the very start it's okay if you try imitating others." "Ohh," "Right." "I see,"
"His singing got better."
"He sounds cool!"
[ HachioujiP's advice ] Starting from imitating other people, and gradually making your own unique singing style is okay!
"You did well! It's perfectly good." "It's not bad at all!"
With HachioujiP's guidance, the two gradually improve.
After a span of 2 hours, recording has finished.
"That was fast!"
"Ya~y" "Good job!" "It's done!"
"At first I thought I wasn't sure what would happen~"
"From now I'll clean all the vocal data and organize it."
"And then the song will be pretty much complete."
While the music has been completed, next, they'll be trying to make the video!
If you have permission, you may be able to use the original song's video.
However, these two are going to draw illustrations and make a new video.
"Nice!"
They form an image and impression taken from the feel of the song, and draw illustrations.
What they ended up making is! Here~
"There's a girl and a boy, and to follow the song lyrics, the girl has 'tears running down her cheeks'.
The boy also wants to cry but to keep that in, there's a lyric that says he 'just looks down at the town'."
"It's sad, but somehow their silhouettes still come to form a heart."
"Ahh, how clever," "Cute~" "Right,"
Based on what the two drew, Joutarou's friend who's an artist drew illustrations for them!
The product of completing the music and the video is shown here!
"Whoaa, it's really good!"
"Wow! I got goosebumps!"
"That's amazing!"
"Ah, their names are there too!"
"Who's that?!"
"His voice sounds cool!"
"That was the best!"
"How is it? Listening to the final product?" "Well, of course I'm overjoyed!" "I'm so happy!"
"It's really fun!"
"I feel like I want to get a mic like that too and I want to do it at home."
"But really! The singing, the illustrations, and even the video-- They were wonderful."
"It's something you could get addicted to huh,"
"If you do this for one more year you're gonna be rich."
Sorry to have kept you waiting! At last, we'll have Gero-san's studio liveshow!
At R no Housoku's homepage, you can see the final product of Shui and Joutarou's Charles! Now, access it immediately!
