Yuuri’s New Song is a Ballad! Original Music Video Released After 2 Years on November 14th at 00:00 – Digital Distribution Begins

The highly acclaimed hybrid singer-songwriter Yuuri, widely known for his opening theme “Curtain Call” for the second cour of the seventh season of the TV anime Boku no Hero Academia, has just released the music video for his brand-new song, “Saitei na Kimi ni Okuru Uta.” This track, which he first debuted during his ongoing “YUURI ASIA TOUR 2025,” premiered its music video on November 14th at 00:00 JST.

The song also became available for digital distribution on the same day. “Saitei na Kimi ni Okuru Uta” (which can be translated as “A Song I Send to the Worst You” or “A Song for You Who Are the Worst”) is garnering significant attention as a quintessential Yuuri-style medium ballad, having first captivated audiences during its live performance at the Yoyogi National Stadium First Gymnasium.

The visually stunning music video for “Saitei na Kimi ni Okuru Uta” was directed by Elizabeth Miyaji-san, who is also known for her work on Yuuri’s other popular songs like “Dry Flower” and “Koibito ja Nakunatta Hi.” This marks a significant moment as it is Yuuri’s first original music video in two years, promising a completely fresh and innovative visual expression that deviates from his previous works.

Yuuri’s career continues its remarkable surge, with his total streaming play count across all his songs now exceeding a staggering 5.5 billion. His signature hit, “Dry Flower,” has achieved an incredible feat by surpassing 1.1 billion cumulative streams, making him the first solo artist in history to reach this milestone, and only the second artist overall. Not stopping there, “Betelgeuse” has also broken the 700 million cumulative stream mark, an unprecedented achievement for a male solo artist to have two songs reach this level.

With an astounding 12 songs surpassing 100 million streams, 7 songs over 300 million streams, and 2 songs exceeding 700 million streams, the anticipation for Yuuri’s latest work is understandably soaring. These record-breaking figures solidify his position as one of Japan’s most successful and listened-to artists.
