"Candle In The Wind '97" overtook "ヤキモチ" (jealous) and reached third place on the Oricon chart.

Korean media was forced to start looking for connections between Elton John and South Korea, claiming that Elton John’s great-grandfather was one-sixth Korean.

…………

Although it is due to the quality of the songs and the popularity of the songs, it is also inseparable from the strong support of the fans.

Compared with fans of other singers, the fan club of Beasts has a super-large financial sponsor, Metaverse Project.

The fan support club of the Beast Band has more than ten times the funds of ordinary fan organizations. It is definitely experienced in fighting and has strong chart-topping ability.

…………

The fans of Beasts immediately began to support them when they saw that the front line was lost. The song request calls of major radio and television stations were almost overwhelmed by the fans of Beasts.

Keiko Kanda used her status as a major shareholder to unceremoniously start mobilizing Sony Records resources. In addition, Totland Investment Holdings Co., Ltd. also announced a high-profile investment of 500 million pounds to establish the Diana Foundation.

At the darkest moment of the support of the British royal family, the rat girl Mayu Watanabe was entrusted by Bunta Takakura to invest in a number of active NGOs in Wales, Ireland, and Scotland with a tendency to "split soil and divide borders."

…………

Thanks to the operation of Totland Investment Company, the generous help of fans, and the resources of Sony.

The Beast Band finally stopped its decline.

But "Candle In The Wind '97" was so popular that the Beasties couldn't suppress it even with their "money power".

As a result, the two sides began a tug-of-war on the Oricon list.

....................................

The reporters and spectators who were watching were dumbfounded.

They never dreamed that Wang Wen would lose, Amuro Namie would lose, and the one that would fight Oricon and Beasts would be a Western song that landed in the air.

They never expected that "Candle In The Wind '97" would become such a hit, sweeping across more than countries around the world.
The other areas were swept across, but they were blocked by the Beast Band.

…………

You know, "Candle In The Wind '97" was crazy on the music charts in South Korea, Yizhou Island, Hong Kong and Southeast Asia.

The Four Heavenly Kings who once shook the whole of Asia were even rubbed to the ground by the English song "Candle In The Wind '97" at the Cantonese Song Base Camp.

Takakura Bunta analyzed that this may be the song of the spiritual motherland, which resonated with a group of filial sons in Hong Kong...

Just like Yizhou Island's admiration for Japan.

…………

This time the Japanese media is proud.

They extensively reported that Beasts is the "Light of Asia" and called Takakura Bunta the last stand in the Asian music scene...

Anyway, the bragging was so exaggerated that Takakura Bunta himself blushed after seeing it.

But with the momentum of "Candle In The Wind '97", it also added a lot of influence to Takakura Bunta.

Many fans of "Candle In The Wind '97" (Candle in the Wind 1997) read the reports and were curious about Takakura Bunta's songs. They listened to Takakura Bunta through various channels, which invisibly brought a lot of traffic to Takakura Bunta.

Relying on this diversion, although Takakura Bunta was overtaken by "Candle In The Wind '97" on the rankings several times, he quickly regained the lost ground again and again.

………………

It’s not easy for the Beasts to persevere...

"Candle In The Wind '97" is discussed on tens of thousands of TV stations, radio stations, and music magazines in more than countries and regions around the world, with an audience of billions of people.

The influence and size of both parties are not at the same level at all.

No musician in any country wants to face such an epic monster.

Too much pressure...

But the sense of accomplishment is also full.

…………

This is "Candle In The Wind '97", a world-class song, the youth memory of a generation around the world, and a song that has left its name in the history of human music.

However, the band Beasts had a real battle with him and ended up with a draw in the Japanese market.

This matter will be blown up by everyone twenty years later...
