Fujii was trained from early childhood to be a concert pianist, but then decided to go into Pop/Jazz Fusion and try his hand at composing and song writing - he is a genius and I am still mad it took me so long to find him 2 years ago.
Ik you didn’t ask me but this is a list of my favorites: - Grace - Kirari - Mo-eh-yo - Working Hard - Tsumi no Kaori - Sayonara baby - Matsuri - Damn - Hedemo ne-yo (lasa edit) Enjoy 😊
Fujii Kaze was my stress relief during the pandemic. He has a live concert available on YT where he performs alone in a stadium and it's top to bottom incredible.
I fell into the rabbit hole after watching Kaze's "Free" Live 2021 at NISSAN stadium, one hour straight up just the piano and him singing in a humongous stadium, amazinggg
FUJII KAZE is a musical genius. That he's not even Grammy nominated for this song is a travesty in my mind. His stage presence shows just how he commands the stage; not trying to be anything like so many other artists, just up there having fun and showing his love of music. The recorded version was amazing but he really leveled up with this live version which is so incredibly rare. If you haven't, check out his remix of Jvke's Golden Hour - that shows you how he holds his own in a really established and well-loved song. Dude is something else!
One Ok Rock is also great, but Fujii Kaze is an artist that Japan is proud of. He is a one-of-a-kind genius. There are many other wonderful songs. Please react to them as well.
One fascinating thing about him is he's had his YT channel from childhood, so you can actually track his musical journey over the years. Check out Nan-Nan if you want more of his jazzy, funky flavor.
Without translation from his language to another I'm lost but music as we all know it is a universal language that connects cultures emotionally. 👏Bravo 👏
His name "KAZE" means wind in Japanese, and all of his songs naturally resonate with the heart and stir emotions. I think the lyrics are appealing, even though they are not all clear. And more than the songs, the aura of peace that he exudes is his greatest charm.
In addition to his Tiny Desk, Fujii Kaze also has an album of English covers called Love All Cover All that's absolutely wonderful. Especially his covers of Lizzo, Post Malone, and Katy Perry
Thanks! The lyrics is actually a self-love song about your higher-self. He’s very spiritual and sweet guy and so freaking talented! Just went to his concert and i can’t wait to see him live again.
@@kasandras2402 It was soooo good! He played Siununoga E-Wa as well but it was different piano arrangement in the intro! The tour in Asia he combined traditional folk music arrangement at "まつり". He has two concerts in Taiwan, first day was Beiguan music which is used to perform at Taiwan temple sacrificial activities. Second day was Taiwan aboriginal music "拍手歌", he is super talent and so do respect local culture!
And you can also find the two parts of "まつり" in YT "祭りtaiwan ver. Fujii Kaze 藤井風 『Best of Fujii Kaze 2020-2024』 台北DAY① まつり (嗩吶版)"、"祭り台湾第二日Fujii Kaze 藤井風 『Best of Fujii Kaze 2020-2024』 台北DAY②まつり". It makes me cry when I heard my motherland music languages from him....
@@michelleliu7605 Oh wow I'm so happy for you 😭 I heard different arrangements of Matsuri in Thailand and Taiwan version is so beautiful 😍 I hope he's coming to Europe soon too. I would travel anywhere to see him 😭
Can't believe you are finally reacting to FUJI KAZE! You will definitely enjoy him, vocally, musically, and performance - personality wise, he's great all around! Tiny Desk and live performances are all fire
I'm a huge fan of him!! He's a genius!!! My Japanese tutor introduced me to him and I'm so thankful for her telling about him, although I probably would have found him later when this song went viral later that year. I need him to come perform in larger US venues because he did small theaters in LA and NY and I wasn't able to get tickets!!!
kaze- san is really one of the best of his generation- AMAZING SINGER- AMAZING MUSICIAN. Fun fact but not so fun fact- HE HAS BEEN PLAYING PIANO SINCE 12 Yrs OLD, you can still find his old covers in his channel. Please react to his tiny desk concert japan. I M SURE YOU'LL BE BLOWN AWAY
I looooove Fujii Kaze and Shinunoga e-wa! As one of Kazetarians (Kaze fan🥰), I'd recommend Tiny desk concerts, Michi teyu ku (0verflowing), Working Hard, Matsuri! Thank you!
I love Fujii Kaze sooo much❤️🔥 Kaze's Tiny Desk Concert is amazing!! Recommended music videos are "Workin' Hard", "Matsuri", “HANA💐” "Michi Teyu Ku (Overflowing)" and more! He is a one of the musical genius🎹🎤 Thank you from Japan
Fujii Kaze appeared on NPR's Tiny Desk Concerts as a Japanese version artist six months ago. The performance was really great, so I'm looking forward to seeing your reaction videos. The 6th song is "Shinunoga E-Wa".
MORE, more, more, please. Love the vibe he brings to his performance. Wow, my playlist is growing faster than I ever imagined. Thanks to the person, persons who recommended we listen to him. Thanks again Throga for your channel.
A true professional analysis! I enjoyed every comment from the first to the last. I think the reason Fujii Kaze uses classical intros to his songs during live performances and frequently changes chords is because he doesn't want his own music to be boxed into a "genre". As others have recommended, "Matsuri (LIVE)" and "Hana" are good. Personally, I like "Damn" and "Workin' Hard".
He's 27 so yes, still pretty young. He started playing piano when he was only 3 years old and later began uploading TH-cam videos of him playing back in 2010 when he was 12 years old. A few years later, he then sold out a show in the Line Cube Shibuya despite not having released any songs of his own yet. He officially debuted in 2019 with his very first song "Nan-Nan".
OH MY GOD! I’m so excited about this! Kaze is phenomenal. I mainly listen to BTS and Fujii Kaze 💜 You will have a blast with his music, sonically, musically, lyrically. He’s also so fun to watch as a performer. Please watch his Tiny Desk Concert too!
Johnny representing me in what I feel about Hua Hua and now about Fujii Kaze: what great singers besides everything that also enchants! 🥰 Thanks for this reaction to this great artist, guys! Greetings from Brazil!
Yay! I love his videos as well. He's such a free spirit and great performer. He's so chill with a bit of a hippy vibe. You can't help but feel happier watching him. I believe he has said that he was told off a bit for always crashing down on the piano keys but you can't deny his passion for the music. He injects it all with a quirky sense of humour too. Love it! ❤
Awwww❤finally you found Kaze 😍😍😍 Of course he is an amazing pianist who has jazz, pop, and classical background and a genius song writer ❤ Pls react to his NPR’s tiny desk concert !! 30min performance goes by like 3min. Also pls react to “workin’ hard””matsuri””Hana””michiteiku “”feelin’ good” you can hear variety of genre in his songs and very addictive 🥰
That whole concert was on Netflix, amazing vibe, he is amazing. My #1 on Spotify a couple years ago, which surprised me as I didn't realise I was listening so much
Yeassse!!!!!!!!!!! Thank you❤ I usually say, BTS Army my Soul, Kase my Heart, The Rose my Spirit. 😊😊😊 You should watch his piano fall in New York concert and the way he dealt with it. So amazing! I love him so much as an artist, for some years.😊
You got the first name right, the last name is Ka ze’. He’s been playing piano since he was 5 or 6. He loves blues, jazz and classical. If you get the chance to see him live… Go! The concerts are amazing! He writes his own music and lyrics as well.😊
Fujii is such a talented musician, and just a lovely human being. He really does have that unquantifiable attractive quality to him. Plus his fashion sense is impeccable and the art direction in his mvs is top tier. You should check out the MVs for Matsuri, Grace, and Hana
I looove this song! And Matsuri hehehe It was /shinoonohgah eewah/ which made me appreciate Fujii Kaze. I love his joy! I don't like ALL his songs, but he has a lot of good songs. But this is special, I don't know why 🙂 Edit: Oh! After watching you, YT offered me more Fujii Kaze and... I found out something extremely beautiful that I'm sure you'll love! (especially you, Johnny). Please react to his Tiny Desk Japan... beautiful, beautiful, beautiful!!! (It was a long time since I didn't listen to him, so.. I'm amazed! I'd called his style "Buddhist gospel" 🙂
Hi, I always enjoy watching your show. Before the Tiny Desk Concert, I suggest you watch the music videos of his songs. I believe you will enjoy the Tiny Desk Concert more after you know the songs. His music videos are great!
Hello, if you want to enjoy the live version of Fujii-style, you can attract about 40,000 fans at Panasonic Stadium in Osaka in 2022. Two days of live performances were great. This can be seen on Netflix, etc., and from 12/1 a new event will be held at Nissan Stadium in Yokohama this summer. You can also see the Live version. Please enjoy it if you like. With love from Japan❤
💐🌹🎹Please give us your reaction to Fujii Kaze's "Lush Life" at the Apollo Theater. We have never seen an artist sing and play this song before. It's amazing.🎼🌹
Fujiі Kaze, Ado, Yoasobi, Kenshi Yonezu, Mrs Green Apple band - This is the pinnacle of J-pop, the kings. Their songs are always at the top of the billboards. He learned to play the piano since childhood, and has been posting jazz piano covers on TH-cam since he was 12. Fujii Kaze writes/composes all of his songs. Fujii's single "Workin' Hard" was selected as the theme song for "FIBA Basketball World Cup 2023"

Fujii was trained from early childhood to be a concert pianist, but then decided to go into Pop/Jazz Fusion and try his hand at composing and song writing - he is a genius and I am still mad it took me so long to find him 2 years ago.

- Sayonara baby
- Matsuri
- Damn
- Hedemo ne-yo (lasa edit)
Enjoy 😊

Tiny desk concert was amazing 🎉

Fujii Kaze is a true genius. Please listen to his other songs.
After Ken hirai, fujii is the next legend
タイニーディスクコンサートは絶対に落とせません。風の曲は人々を幸せにしてくれます。
As a person who lives in Japan, I can say that Fujii Kaze is a very unique artist! Thank you for reacting. There are so many other songs…
First time hearing Fuji. Amazing musician. I want to hear more. ❤🎉❤
I fell into the rabbit hole after watching Kaze's "Free" Live 2021 at NISSAN stadium, one hour straight up just the piano and him singing in a humongous stadium, amazinggg

どうだった?
I am honored that you like my favorite musician, Fujii Kaze. I love his music.
One fascinating thing about him is he's had his YT channel from childhood, so you can actually track his musical journey over the years. Check out Nan-Nan if you want more of his jazzy, funky flavor.
he is currently on his Best of Fujii Kaze Asian tour and I will be coming to see him live in concert on his Philippines stop this DEC!
He definitely is a great musician and talented lyricist. Love him ❤
I love Kaze for a few years. I m glad u love him. Greetings from Belgium 🍀🍀
