YOASOBI Unleashes Live Performance of RADWIMPS Cover “Kaishin no Ichigeki”
YOASOBI has thrilled fans by releasing a live performance video from their guest appearance at the “RADWIMPS 20th ANNIVERSARY LIVE TOUR,” which took place on November 24, 2025, at Yokohama Arena. This exciting reveal showcases the profound musical connection between two of Japan’s most prominent artists.
The Electrifying “Kaishin no Ichigeki” Performance
The newly released video features YOASOBI’s powerful cover of RADWIMPS’ beloved song, “Kaishin no Ichigeki.” This rendition is a standout track on the “Dear Jubilee -RADWIMPS TRIBUTE-” album, released on November 19 to celebrate RADWIMPS’ 20th debut anniversary. The Yokohama Arena concert marked the very first live performance of this much-anticipated cover, making the video a truly special treat for fans.
ikura’s Heartfelt MC and Special Guests
The live footage isn’t just about the music; it also captures ikura’s engaging MC, where she eloquently speaks about the origins of this remarkable collaboration and her deep respect and affection for RADWIMPS. A particularly touching detail is the inclusion of members from “purasonika,” the acoustic session unit ikura was previously a part of, who lent their voices as chorus members on the tribute album’s version of “Kaishin no Ichigeki.” This thoughtful arrangement further emphasizes the profound reverence YOASOBI holds for RADWIMPS.
