Lyrics:
ame wa yofuke sugi ni
yuki e to kawaru darou
Silent night, Holy night
kitto kimi wa konai
hitorikiri no kurisumasu・ibu
Silent night, Holy night
kokoro fukaku himeta omoi
kanaeraresou mo nai
kanarazu konya nara
iesou na ki ga shita
Silent night, Holy night
mada kienokoru kimi e no omoi
yoru e to furitsuzuku
machikado ni wa kurisumasu・turii
gin-iro no kirameki
Silent night, Holy night
ame wa yofuke sugi ni
yuki e to kawaru darou
Silent night, Holy night
kitto kimi wa konai
hitorikiri no kurisumasu・ibu
Silent night, Holy night

[@TeethSink]

Such a talent. You looked a little like a young George Harrison in this video.

[@clementeensy]

Your voice fits so perfectly for City Pop, thank you for this it’s amazing

[@GenoSamuelOfficial]

Thank you so much!

[@Yarnooee]

[@ox1306]

I love Tatsuro Yamashita ughhh all his songs are bangers fr, Midas touch has me in a chokehold rn but I think this song is gonna take its spot

[@GenoSamuelOfficial]

🥳🥰

[@megapilo_]

The only Christmas song I actually like

[@GenoSamuelOfficial]

Thank you!

[@watcherxd]

This brings back memories. Back in highschool i was big on jpop and always listened to japanese christmas songs and this was one of my favorites. Just years later when i read up on the translation of the lyrics i found out what a depressing song this is lmao

[@GenoSamuelOfficial]

Thank you !

[@DontWalkRUN]

This is amazing!!

[@GenoSamuelOfficial]

Thank you!

[@behmog]

You're so good in singing Japanese, Geno. This is one of my favorite songs by Yamashita Tatsuro, having its original LP playing it many times. He and his wife are truly the gems of City Pop genre, with their songs blowing fresh spirit and nostalgic feelings of 70s and 80s. Thanks for singing this cover, allowing me to sometimes switch between the song by Yamashita and your cover. 👍🏻❤️

[@GenoSamuelOfficial]

Thank you man!

[@radityaprabhaswara9046]

Came from trash taste, stayed for the chad geno is

[@GenoSamuelOfficial]

Thank you for the support!

[@user-tb1vc7tz7o]

達郎さん好きなのかな｡やはり日本語！日本語､とても上手ですね。悲しいバラードいいですよね。達郎さんのフォーエバーマインもすごくいいですよー｡意味も最高！

[@GenoSamuelOfficial]

😆🎼🎼🎼

[@mystique_learner]

just marvellous yamashita san will be so proud of you

[@Lewiths]

Said I’d be back

[@k.maki.3402]

うわぁ！声と曲がぴったりあってる！山下達郎以外は無理だと思ってたのに！

[@yuukimasamura5143]

this song reminds me of an entire decade of meeting girls at freezing cold train stations in Yokohama and then walking home in knee deep snow after arriving at my home station back in 2010. The heater in my apartment was just slightly warm which was convenient because I could use body heat to keep the ladies warm.

[@bluekrabs]

Been waiting for another Japanese cover! This did not disappoint at all, loved it!! :)

[@GenoSamuelOfficial]

Thank you for loving it!

[@orie3977]

[@tetu7456]

久しぶりのカバーですね！嬉しい〜(^_^)コーラスも含め全部自分でやってるのかな　素晴らしい！！
竹内まりやのプラッチックラブのカバーはよく聴いてます。
日本の田舎に住んでますが、この時期の東京が感じられて映像も良いですね。
歌ってる後ろのジャケットも興味深いです。QUEEN、カシオペア、竹内まりあ　山下達郎　YES　などなど
達郎のライブ　再開されたらまた行かないと〜

[@GenoSamuelOfficial]
