I'm a sucker for Ken's Hitomi wo Tojite . I think if my younger sister didn't played that song for me to listen , I wouldn't be so crazy over him now HAHA
aside from Hitomi wo Tojite , I would recommend the following ballads from him :
- Elegy
- his rendition of The Eagles's DESPERADO . It's the B side of Hitomi wo Tojite , it's bloody good . Sent goosebumps down my spine
- B side of POP STAR , Tameiki Kippu
- Utsukushii Hito , the B side of Kimi no Suki na Toko . You can find both songs on FAKIN' POP
- Shashin , the last track on FAKIN' POP . I almost wanna cried when I heard the full song finally as before that I have heard a snippet of it on youtube . It's said that the song was written & composed by Ken in memory of his late dad who passed away 4 years ago in Nov due to cancer
- Ring
- Missin' you ~It will break my heart~ , the tune was composed by Babyface . There's an eng version of the song titled It will break my heart ~English version~ found on the single . It will break my heart ~English version~ is strictly Eng from the start to the end . Ken sang it perfectly to a pitch , it's scary
- hug , the B side of Bye My Melody
- Kiss , the B side of Elegy
Ok I prob can go on & on about Ken forever but I stop now haha . He has other great ballads aside from the ones that I listed down
Aside from Ken :
Kobukuro - Tsubomi (brillant song , def deserved to be their 1st no.1)
KinKi Kids - Anniversary , Harmony of December , Eien ni
T.M.Revolution - Meteor
abingdon boys school - Desert Rose , the B side of BLADE CHORD & no it's not a cover by Sting . It's an original no & the song's in Eng
