Rake's "THE FIRST TAKE" video for "1,000,000 times 'I love you'" as the title suggests, has surpassed 1,000,000 views!
Sendai-based singer-songwriter Rake's performance video "1,000,000 times 'I love you'" for "THE FIRST TAKE," which was released on April 16, 2025, has surpassed 1,000,000 views as the song title suggests.
The song has received support from a wide range of generations for its lyrics that express "feelings that words cannot fully convey" and its simple, memorable melody. The song has received 150 million streaming views and 3 million downloads, and continues to be loved by people of all ages as a classic love song for "life milestones" such as marriage proposals, weddings, and graduation ceremonies.
The song also coincided with the Great East Japan Earthquake that occurred shortly after its release, and many people said they were reminded of the preciousness of conveying one's feelings to loved ones, which is one reason why the song continues to resonate across time and generations.
This time, "THE FIRST TAKE" featured a one-shot performance by a band.
As Rake says, "It was a lot of fun to perform with gusto" and "I hope the time spent watching this video makes you a little happier," the band's performance reflects the new brilliance of the songs, delivered only now on the 15th anniversary of the band's debut. I hope the time you spend watching this video will make you as happy as possible.
This video is available on the YouTube channel "THE FIRST TAKE".
