The highly anticipated first music video for Taisei Fukumoto’s original song “I wanna meet U” was released at midnight on his birthday October 16, 2024. Ever since Taisei returned to the industry, fans from all over have been eagerly awaiting this moment when he would unleash his craft to the world.
“This music video is a birthday present from all the fans to me.”
“I wanna meet U” is a bright, refreshing track that lifts listeners’ spirits with its upbeat, catchy pop rhythm. The song evokes the cozy feeling of reuniting with someone special, making everyone feel welcome and energized. The positive energy of the track had fans buzzing with excitement, and its release marks a major milestone in Taisei’s career.
Written and composed by Taisei himself along with NEW EVIDENCE’s Kan Yamamoto and arranged by Kaito Uno, “I wanna meet U” is the ultimate anthem encapsulating the feelings Taisei has toward his fans, toward anyone who waited for his comeback and supported him.
Resonating with listeners as both a personal expression of gratitude from Taisei to his fans, and highlighting the importance they hold to him, “I wanna meet U” is a song that simply makes you feel good. The unique and precious bond between Taisei and his fans is something that he is striving to treasure and nurture. To Taisei, his fans are his driving force. Just like he wants to meet everyone again, fans want to meet him again, and again.
When you listen to the song, you undoubtedly feel the warmth coming from his lyrics and singing. The authentic desire to become someone you can proudly support is evident in his artistry.
The music video itself is as bright and cute as Taisei himself. Sporting different looks and outfits throughout the video, he makes sure to show off all his good sides—his cute smile, bright eyes, wide smile, clean dancing, carefully picked fashion—all the sides that we have come to love about him.
His famed “angel wing” (天使の羽)—a unique, natural patch of silver-colored hair on the left nape of his neck—can even be seen in a few scenes, which evokes feelings of adoration for many fans.
One place of importance can be seen in the video as well, and that is Tokyo Dome. The dome is one of the venues that he aspires to one day stand at and perform in front of everyone who has been supporting him all this time.
All the sides of him shown in the video are those that dedicated fans have come to love through the years he’s been a part of their lives, and “I wanna meet U” perfectly embodies the narrative that Taisei right now wants to convey.
“As long as you’re here, that’s all I need.”
