[utattemita spotlight] ShounenT/少年T

It's been quite a while since I last posted a spotlight (and it was Tourai LOL). I plan on reposting the one about Jack and Clear since I posted them using an another account and editing them is a pain. I'll keep the old ones archived for the comments, though ♥.

Anwyay, let's have a somewhat newbie singer today on spotlight :3.



少年T (ShounenT)
| NND mylist | blog | NND comm | mixi comm |

ShounenT is a high school student who recently entered the utattemita scene in NND and is getting quite popular every time he uploads a song. His mixing isn't as good and 'seemingly pro' as some Nico artists. What makes him interesting is that he sings covers but with his guitar playing as accompaniment. The different arrangement of the songs makes his covers irresistible, imo. His voice sounds like clear's (and he admires clear, too...based on the fact that he's often mentioned) so guitar + gentle voice = enough to keep us me fangirly.

I translated the profile he filled up in his ameba blog below.

The song list below is arranged by date of uploading ;3. Since the tags are constantly cleaned out, I'm not writing them anymore unless they're interesting.



SONG LIST
- as of January 2010

* LEGEND: (♪) - non-Vocaloid song; (♬) - Vocaloid song
- I'm not putting hearts at the moment because I love ALL of his songs, I loop them all day in iTunes.

** Note that the first part are songs found in his mylist. The next set are those he removed from the site.

♬ Just Be Friends (WANKO ver.)
- 12-18-2009
- composed by DixieFlatline, originally sung by Megurine Luka, WANKO version by Inugami Hiroki
- ShounenT's first song has him singing to the original arrangement of the song. The mixing is not very good, but his voice is really good.
| nicovideo | nicosound | youtube |

♬ キミ以上、ボク未満。(Kimi Ijou, Boku Miman)
- 12-21-09
- composed by DECO*27, originally sung by Hatsune Miku
- This is a very cute cover of a very cute song ;; and is one of my favorite covers by him. Again, it's still not of him playing the guitar but the mixing is slightly better here. The comments in this cover are full of "so cute!" XD. You just have to hear him say "Chou suki~" @ 0:45 :3.
| nicovideo | nicosound | youtube |

♬ From Y to Y
- 12-24-09
- composed by Jimmy Thumbs-P, originally by Hatsune Miku
- I first heard this cover in the utattemita ranking and is the first I've heard from him. Yeah, I promptly fell in love <3. This is ShounenT's first cover using his guitar accompaniment and it's just so amazing in a meltingly gentle sort of way (lame description). His voice really reminds me of Clear's and the guitar accompaniment is just right for his voice. The mixing here is definitely better, too.
| nicovideo | nicosound | youtube |

♪ 変わらないもの (Kawaranai Mono)
- 12-29-09
- original song from Toki wo Kakeru Shoujo
- I loved Toki wo Kakeru Shoujo and it made me cry a few times. ShounenT's cover of its song is poignant and gentle (again), with his guitar accompaniment. I actually like it more than the original T_T. So lovable. This has probably the most comments among ShounenT's songs. I'm lolling at the "Chiakiiiii" comments in Nicovid, but I can't blame them. This cover is really tear-jerking if you have watched the anime.
| nicovideo | nicosound | youtube |

♬ Dear
- 01-03-09
- composed by 19's Sound Factory, originally sung by Hatsune Miku
- This is a rather upbeat cover compared to his previous ones. Still with the guitar accompaniment, ShounenT sang with a little more power here, but he's still so gentle-sounding. He sounds like clear even more LOL. The mixing here is done by another person and it helped a lot in making this cover awesome.
| nicovideo | nicosound | youtube |


** There are some songs he had sung before (as a 17-year old XD) sometime on November, but he deleted them off Nico Nico Douga for unknown reasons. Some sites like nicosound and youtube still have copies of the video, but they might be gone soon. Here are they.

♪ Share the World
- 10-01-09
- originally sung by DBSK
- This is the only upbeat song I've heard from ShounenT (and he deleted it :[). I thought it was pretty nice even if the mixing is messed up.
| youtube |

♬ なまえのないうた
- 11-06-09
- composed by DATEKEN, originally sung by Kagamine Len
- This is my most favorite cover by ShounenT (and he deleted it T_T). The song is gentle to start with, and the guitar melody plus his kind voice makes this song so good to listen to.
| youtube |

♬ メルト (Melt)
- 11-07-09
- composed by ryo, originally sung by Hatsune Miku
- He is singing with guitar accompaniment here and it's pretty good despite his sudden voice strain at the first chorus. It's a pity that it's deleted in NND.
| youtube |

♪ staple stable
- 11-08-09
- original theme of Bakemonogatari anime
- one of his better songs, imo, so I don't understand why it was deleted :(. The guitar playing here is really good and his gentle voice, as usual, complements his guitar so well. I like this more than the original.
| youtube |

♬ Fire◎Flower
- 11-14-09
- composed by halyosy, originally sung by Kagamine Len
- I have no idea why he deleted this nice cover. It's one of my favorites, too! This has him playing the guitar.
| nicosound | youtube |

♪ Lost My Music
- 11-30-2009
- original song by Hirano Aya for Suzumiya Haruhi no Yuutsu
- This is also a wonderful cover and is one of my favorites. He still plays the guitar here. This is also one of the few times I've seen him mention Clear in his blurb.
| youtube |

♬ Just Be Friends
- 12-12-09
- composed by DixieFlatline, originally sung by Megurine Luka,
- This is another version of his cover of Just Be Friends, but with him playing the guitar instead of singing with the original accompaniment. I like this more than the other one T_T.
| youtube |




I hope he uploads more songs in the future and reup those that were removed. I really loved them T_T.

I discovered this guy when I saw one of his lives when I was browsing for something to watch. XD He didn't have any songs in the ranks then but his voice really attracted me and I joined his comm right away. XD

And yeah, he does say "Let it go" from time to time in his shows LOL.

Because of this post I checked out some of his lives and his Namauta audition...and I love him so much <3.

He's just so adorably cute and sweet (and not to mention good looking).

(Anonymous) 2011-02-09 04:32 pm (UTC)(link)
ermm seems like he's going to be popular soon.
Sorry I don't know the format to post link in here

Although i like Nico singers/Utaite people and their works, i'm really not knowledgeable about them and stuff. I accidentally stumbled to this guy's Goodbye Days cover and i instantly fell in love lol. I googled his name and got here. I love your community. ;--; It's such a help for those who are not "in the know" of Nico singers.

So yeah, expressing my thanks <3 and stalker-ish tendencies for this guy

Is there a chance you've got his other mp3?
Since you've been describing how good the other songs, I want to hear it too. T.T

Hi! I'm sorry if I'm not logged in, I can't log into DW when I'm at work ^^;.

Unfortunately, I don't keep track of the ShounenT songs I have, and even though his previous ones were deleted (some are still in youtube, I guess), the songs he uploaded after I posted this spotlight are also good. Actually, he has improved a lot in singing, so you might prefer his newer works. You can listen to them by clicking the songs in his mylist (http://www.nicovideo.jp/mylist/15873112). You can also buy his albums online (he has debuted as a singer, after all!). Enjoy!
