Singer-songwriter Natsuki Kawanishi’s new song Risouteki Girl (Ideal Girl) will be released on April 26.
The new song captures the emotions and daily life of a normal girl seeking more self-confidence, focusing on the efforts that women put in each day. The pre-release demo received over 20 million views on social media, making this release highly-anticipated by listeners. The music video will be released on YouTube on May 10 at 8PM.
In addition, a campaign is underway on TikTok. Users who post videos using the song will be entered into a drawing to win an invitation to a special live performance and autographed goods. A collaborative video choreographed by popular video creator MIOCHIN, who boasts 2.8 million TikTok followers, is also available.
<Comment from Natsuki Kawanishi>
“Even the most beautiful women I see on the street or the seemingly-perfect women on social media have days when they have hectic mornings or lazy days at home. I wrote this song with the hope that all women of the world could relate to it.
When listening to the chorus,
a woman’s self-esteem will go UP.
Listening to the song in full,
a woman will spend the day relating to it.
That’s the type of music I wanted to create.
The lyrics tell the story of a girl that is one way at home and another way out and about and on social media. This is one song that I hope will draw attention to that contrast.”
