  • Jero being useless It is not PV is unsavory.

    If novel, touch cannot be got used anything as it is good.

    Jero is pitiful.

  • Good song, deserves a better MV

  • This is fire!! I love the orami ibushi song on the kill bill soundtrack. Now, I'm a new fan of enka. BTW, I'm african american!

  • @dstrtmali202 Your not alone

  • こんな曲あるってしらんかった!

    良い曲やのに・・

    PVもおもしろい^^

  • Nice!!!

  • Great voice and style!

  • DANNGG...that man can sing some Japanese!!!! I can't believe I never heard of this guy!!!!!

  • Awesome song, horrible music video. こんないい曲がもったいない。。。

  • 自分は海雪よりこっちのが取っ付き易い。

    英単語一切入らない一青さんの独特の歌詞もマッチしてると思う。

    王道演歌よりジェロはこういう楽曲のほうがいいんじゃないだろう­かと。

  • WOW!....O.O

  • Holy shit, what a beautiful voice!

  • His voice is sooo beautiful!

  • What the fuck did I just watch?

  • I am so inspired... He is an amazing singer!!!!

  • This guy is so impressive. To me though it is more than just enka, he has made this into his own!

  • he is like the best singer ever!!!!

  • this is the best "fusion" i've ever seen! XD

  • His grandmother must be very proud in heaven!

  • BRILLIANT WORK!!! JERO IS AWESOME!!! THE JAPANESE ENKA NEYO!!! : )

  • Wow I wanna be like him. Black man sing in japanese is awesome. Became a fan.

  • 2週間前に初めて、ジェロさんの映像を見ました(日本には住んで­いないので)。ええ、たくさんの日本の視聴者が3年前に経験した­驚愕とうれしさを、その時味わいました。結果は、その魅力に引き­込まれてしまいました。この歌もいい歌ですね。歌い方も素敵です­。演歌は好きでも、演歌界の大御所たちのクセのある歌い方にどう­してもなじめずに距離を置いていたのですが、ジェロさんのおかげ­で聴く機会が増えました。ありがとう。

  • @caribbeanbreeze1000 私も同感。なんで知らなかったのか?!?と。It takes an African American to revitalize enka for the Japanese youth. LOL.

  • i love the imagery in this video. Jero swagg

  • すがもりの うきなの・・・ まるで和歌のせかいに さそわれたような・・。

    何回聞いても 大好きです

  • 唄が好き。

  • PVひどくもないと思うけどなぁ。クラブVJ的な演出センスだか­ら演歌にあうかどうかは別として。Perfumeとかディスコロ­ック的なアーティストならありだったりするでしょ。このPVをよ­く思わない人は、保守的な演歌が好きか、ジェロを色物に見てる人­だと思う。そして、いい曲だと思います。

  • いくらなんでもこのPVは酷すぎる。

    ジェロも作詞・作曲家さんも可哀想。

    良い曲なのに非常にもったいない。

  • 曲はとてもかっこいい。だがしかし、このPVはない!NewEr­a降らすまではいいけど、ジェロの残像は悪意すら感じるんですが­・・・。ニコニコのMADでももっとまともに作れる人たくさんい­るのに・・・

  • jero is awesome

  • You are amazing, Jerome! Keep it up!

  • とても素晴らしい曲だけどこのPVを手掛けた人には

    釜山港へ帰れ と言いたい。

  • えいさ、いい曲なのになんで売れないんだろう。和風な歌詞と和楽­器とストリングスと打楽器によるディスコ調演歌。一見ミスマッチ­に思えるけど見事なコラボ、素晴らしい。

  • Cool video! And good singer.

  • I love this song!!

  • i like his fitted hat

  • OMG so cool.. o__O

  • omg he's so cute!!!!!!! ><

  • omg i love this song....<3

  • THANK YOU JERO!!!!!THANKS TO YOU I CAN NOW SPEAK JAPANESE!!!!!

  • この帽子どれか一つほしい^^

    ジェロかっこよすぎ!

  • @02:31 His melisma is amazing!

  • 演歌なんて興味もありませんでしたが、ジェロさんのおかげでその­素晴らしさが伝わってきたような気がします。改めてジェロさん尊­敬します

  • I've been listening to Jero's songs for more than a year now and dont understand a word. However, I've been so drawn to the enka music since i first heard umuyiki. Enka music is beautiful! The rhythm and soul in enka is very nostalgic. Understanding Japanese would have given me a deeper appreciation for it but now, I'm content just flowing with the rhythm. I've search itunes for jero but cant find him. Anyone know where I purchase his CD/mp3 in the US? In Minnesota???

  • @wittylyrics try play-asia [dot] com and search for Jero, they have a few of his albums they ship to the US

  • 彼の歌は胸に響く。☆☆☆☆☆

  • Excellent voice!  God has truly blessed this man! :)

  • I really like this. How nice to show that much talent and diversity. Sweet. And what a great mixture of Hip-Hop style and smooth Enka singing. Nice.

  • Does he have any music in English?

  • @DJHarrison93 I think he can't speak english (well, most japanese who sing in english don't too... though)

  • @ryobr Well he is from the US so he knows english

  • @ryobr hes very fluent in english

  • @ryobr Well, CNN arranged an interview with him a year or two ago and both sides conversed using English... =/

  • @DJHarrison93 no, he only sings enka

  • is he asian? why's he dress like that...I wondeer.

  • @SinSeared He's American. His grandmother was Japanese.

  • @SinSeared He's 3/4 African American, 1/4 Japanese. His Japanese grandmother helped him grow a love for Enka music. He grew up in America and so he dresses like that because he adheres to popular American culture.

  • @

    Thanks

  • Woah his voice is so smooth and nice! :O amazing~

  • ehehe eheheh eheheheheeeee :)

  • @macabrehell Fool

  • Awesome song and singer, opened my eyes to this amazing genre.

    Much respect to him.

  • Oh MY GODDD!!!! I Must Meet this Man!!!

  • @MatMadik I KNO RIGHT! I'd sooooo want to meet him and just say "Jero-kun, aishteru!!!!!!" LOL he my hero man.

  • Best Jero Song And Music Video I've seen yet!!! Oh My Goddd!!!! It's Beautiful!!!! Absolute Favourite!!!!

  • Hey Guys, this guy has a great voice.

    U go man!!! cuttie....

  • The best african american enka singer! LOL and the only one haha. <3

  • SUGOI JERO KUN!

    Wow! Hes an awesome singer!

    GANBATTE NE~!!

  • god bless him ~

  • I like this video. It's artistic! And he is a good singer.

  • I think I'm in love. He's so good-looking and his voice is so beautiful. <3

  • I'm very proud for him

    He is really great singer :D

  • Nice

    Though I wonder how many perfectly English-speaking 3rd-generation Japanese Americans have made it big as singers in America?????

  • OMG I LOVE HIS SINGING!!! does anyone know the title for the song?

  • Eisa. It's in the title. :-\

  • Don't forget that not everyone can read ひらがな ;)

  • Good point. It becomes really habitual after a while. Assumptions must not be made. ;_; Although I guess they could just google it..

    ググレカス hah. B|

  • もっと良い歌詞の歌を歌わせてあげたい!

    声も曲も悪くないのに何で?

    歌詞が良ければもっと売れるのに!

  • Such beautiful singing :-)

  • eccolo il grandissimo :D!!!

  • he has opened the door for more overseas men.

    he has also made more teenagers like me interested in enka, cause he's cool, black, and has a lovely voice, but hey, im proud to be proud of enka music because of him.

  • Heh, I listen to Enka cause of my stepdad. But I love Jero.. My friends just WTF@my listening to it o.o

  • nice!!

  • ジェロってほんと歌うまいなぁ~

  • @shermhead0 Umm, speaking as a femaie also living in Japan, I think that could be said for a lot of foreign males here, not only black guys. But to make such a blanket statement is totally ignorant.  Especially the STD remark.

  • 僕は日本人でありながら自分の国の音楽である演歌をほとんど聴い­たことがなかったのですが、ジェロさんのこの歌やほかの歌を聴い­て演歌に興味を持ちました。

    本当に有難う御座いました。

  • wow now I've seen it all

  • jero taking enka to the next level :)

  • Of course his voice would be splendid in Japanese or his native English.!!!!!!

  • いい時代になったなあ

  • 自分の想いを諦めてでも恋しい人の幸せを願うって切ない。 歌詞もいいけどメロディーも好きです。

  • I wonder how it would sound if he sang in English

  • He's said that he can, but he's not used to it, so he's not as good; or at least he doesn't have confidence in his ability to sing in English.

    I think if he practiced, he could do it, and do it well enough to get back across the pond.

  • OOOOh I lve him so much:D:D

    He is my japaese idol:D

    If someone know him let me know that hahaha I want to know him......

  • ジェロが歌う演歌は癖がなくて、とても聞きやすいんですね。

    それに、とても好青年。

    今の若い日本人演歌歌手よりはずっと聴きやすい。安心して聴ける­んですよね。

  • gah! I love him! so inspiring.

  • Jero- Eisa

  • 貴様のような奴が大嫌い。私は黒人で、人を人種で差別するのは間­違っている。何れにしても、貴様はイギリスから来たぞ!

    黒人に対するひどい人種的憎悪はまだ存在しているらしいなぁ!

  • 「あなたの嘘」のところがめちゃ格好いい

  • いいね

  • かっけえええww

  • haha...

    you're an idiot

  • Stunning video!

  • Awesome

  • Awesome !

  • Can anyone please tell me what this song is about?

    It is definitely a very beautiful song...

  • i didnt noe hu the hell i was until i listened 2 this song LOL (i was bein sarcastic)

    ひどい

  • Oh my god, I am in love with this song.

  • whahaha damm funny, WOW...! first black person i see singin japanese, men haha.. respect.

  • fav song and vid by him so far :)

  • you should listen to the whole CD. I think you'd like it ^_^

  • Great song, but whoever decided on video direction mad a bad choice.

    素晴らしい曲、ビデオの方向性は誰に怒っては悪い選択をした。

  • Triiippy. He sounds like a 40 year old japanese with a great voice :D

  • The song was great, but the MV eh.... He's doing too much hip hop moves, etc. that has nothing related to the mood or beat of the song. The effects should be toned down. It's too flashy. Still love Jero's singing. Enka is awesome!

  • Great song! It was sung very well. Too many special effects though...XD;

  • His name is Jero, and the songs name is Else, though I dont know where to download it...Sorry!

  • Not else, it's called Eisa

  • Oops xD yeah I just realized that! Still learning nyaa~ Arigatoo<3

  • lol, it's cool. We all still are...i mean unless you're fluent but even then...ok, I'mma shut up now lol

  • Lol xD You speak japanese?

  • Yeah, I grew up speaking it, forgot it and relearned it. that's the life of a Afro-American Japanese (guess cuz I'm not from the States)

  • =O Oh dude, thats wicked xD That happened to me with German. I knew the german I just sorta forgot it, then when I went back to Germany it all just hit me like a blast! xD

  • Well there you go! lol. That's cool as hell (oxymoronic I know lol)

  • Lol xD So you mixed with Japanese?

  • Yes I am. I'm a very proud Blackanese, Blasian, Japfro American...whatever you wanna call me as long as it's Japanese/Black American!

  • =O LUCKY!! Lol, that is soooo awesomeeee<3

  • lol, thanks ;)

  • Yer welcome ^.^;

  • わたしも日本人とこくじんです。。すごいじゃん!

  • Majide?! Sugoi! Doko kara kita?

  • california de umareta.. anata wa?

  • Yamaguchi, but living in New Orleans/Baton Rouge, Louisiana now.

  • Kool! I have family from Louisiana but they live in Shreveport!

  • Cool beans, so do I. Look like just about every Blasian person I know has family down here lol.

  • I agree! lol. It has been years since visiting Louisiana to see family.

  • yeah I need to make another trip up north Louisiana and go see my family as well. It's been a good couple of years

  • agreed! lol You have family in Shreveport? If so, it may be that when you drive north you are going to see my family as well hah! One's family tree spreads similar to a forest fire ne!

  • lol, not in Shreveport. It's a couple of hours away from there near Monroe, LA. But yeah I got family from all over the place and it keeps getting bigger...I don't wanna keep track anymore lol

  • you cant really tell hes part asian just by lookin at him. he looks african american

  • Probably because he's 3/4's black...It doesn't show too much after half and since black is the usually dominate gene (of any of the races), it'll take over quickly from there.

  • California de umaremashita, でも、両親は大阪にすんでいます heh I am happy to be half too!

  • 超、おもしれー!!

    キッパリ、ダウンロードさせていただきました。

  • ボクはこの曲好きです!

    新鮮だと思いますが・・・。(他の演歌知らないけど)

    リピートで聞いてますよー。

  • そうかあ、なるほど・・・ということは、俺の感覚が、既に古くな­ったんだ!これまた、残念!(涙声)

  • 悲観しなさんなwwジェロのターゲットマーケットはむしろ演歌に­馴染みの無い若い世代だと思うから、この曲でも十分新鮮なんだよ­。貴方の感覚が特別古いというわけではないと思うよ

  • 私もド演歌歌って欲しかった。

    そろそろ着流し着てもいいんじゃない?

  • ×宇川直弘

    ○宇川直宏 じゃねーのかよ?

  • R&B演歌。

    素晴らしい。

  • この曲のCD買いました

  • Wow, that's realy amazing!

    I love his style in which he combines japaneses enka and this hip hop style!

    He has a great voice and I'm glad that a friend showed me that video!

  • I heard Jero is also going to sing Yozora as well as Umiyuki. Also, the first lady might stop by during the opening ceremony.

  • PV笑っちゃう

  • Jero-san. Thank you very much for sharing your beautiful voice with such amazing songs! I'm trying to learn Japanese so the combination is an ideal way to help me learn it. I hope that you will have continued success on all of your future works. I hope that you will have a long career of bringing happiness to both East & West. Thank you from your fan in Canada.

    P.S. Does anyone know if there is an English language fan club for Jero-san?

  • Love this guy. I'm rooting for him to stay around awhile. I saw him sing during Kohaku, and it was so heartwarming.

  • 残像不評すぎワロタw

  • He's finally playing in the U.S.! He's going to play in Washington D.C. this March! :D!!!!

  • Seriously? When/Where?

  • He's playing at The National Cherry Blossom Festival® Family Day & Opening Ceremony Presented with the National Building Museum.

    He's playing on the 28th of March and it's at 5pm. He's going to playing Umiyuki song <3!
