Utaite Spotlight: Furuike Yuusuke

Furuike Yuusuke / 古池ゆうすけ

mylist

Furuike Yuusuke is a very new utaite, having only uploaded 7 songs since 2010. Despite his few covers, he seems to have gained a large following, especially after his cover of "Yoku Aru Rinne to Neko no Hanashi". He is often dubbed as "the anticipated newcomer" and "kawakakkoii".

Yuusuke has a thin, ikemenish voice that has a really good range. He prefers singing songs at a higher pitch and can do flawlessly without straining at the hard-to-reach parts. For some reason, his voice seems to me like a cross of Nodoame's high range and Kettaro's voice quality. He likes singing popular upbeat songs which highlight his wonderful range, although sometimes it means he's overshadowed by more popular covers.

sample works
Torinoko City (40mP original)
Calc. (JimmythumbP original)
Yoku Aru Rinne to Neko no Hanashi (KotsubanP original)
Utau Utai no Uta (HoehoeP original)
Catfood (doriko original)

I first encountered Furuike Yuusuke when I was looking for good male covers of Torinoko City, which is one of my favorite 40mP songs. Eventually, I also found his cover of Rinne to Neko which is really well done! I don't know much about him (he's so new orz) but I hope he'll start uploading a lot of covers this year :D.

Oh, he is quite new. Except he has uploaded covers on koebu, not particularly sure but he was more of a koebu user, just recently he started to transfer his covers onto nicovideos.
But woah, he can reach high notes! I loved his Calc. and Torinoko City covers.

I don't know much about Koebu too, but it looks like are able to post up voice clips, broadcast and more. I managed to find Furuike Yuusuke's Koebu by googling xD

O-oh, his Catfood is so cute! I've seen him in the ranking before and have never actually listened to his songs, but now I've got all of them downloaded, lol. Thank you for re(?)-introducing me to him!

oh my god! his voice is kinda ... my type!
Not so much like Nodoame, it's smoother and more calm!

I love how his high notes arent falsetto, and still not off!
