Toshinobu Kubota -- So Beautiful

 


Haven't heard from J-R&B singer Toshinobu Kubota(久保田利伸)in a while, and if I'm not mistaken, he should be approaching his 40th anniversary in show business pretty soon, if it's not this year.

His 41st single is "So Beautiful" which was released in November 2018, and it's amazing how he's been able to keep those high tones all these decades. As usual, he's at his crooning and serenading best with this ballad that he wrote and composed. The song reached No. 38 on Oricon, and it's included on Kubota's 14th album "Beautiful People" from November 2019 which broke the Top 10 and hit No. 8. "So Beautiful" was also used on an ad for KOSÉ Cosmetics.
