Jpop Recommend #391 Kaijyuu no hana uta by Vaundy

怪獣の花唄 kaijyuu no hana uta

Vaundy


Released in May 2020, this song is his 7th single.  Vaundy is a talented 20-years-old singer-song writer who is also a university student majoring art.  I first came to know him through his other song, "napori", which has totally different vibe. 

”怪獣, Kaijyuu”, in Japanese means a giant monster like, Gozilla.  ”花唄, hana uta” lilterally means flower song.  The title doesn't make any sense and it catches people's attention all the more.
