Ah, I thought Hideki Kaji was the other fellow who played with Keigo Oyamada... The other guy looks a lot like Hideki Kaji

What is track 13 and 14 in this zip file? The album only has 12 tracks yes?

Just learned of this April 5 headline: J-POP SINGER HIDEKI KAJI IS ROBBED AND BEATEN IN SWEDEN

Japantoday.com: "Police said Sunday that a Japanese pop singer dressed up as a pineapple was robbed while shooting a music video in southern Sweden on Saturday. Police spokesman Bo Paulsson said three young men beat up 41-year-old Hideki Kaji and robbed him of camera equipment worth around 20,000 kronor ($2,500) late Saturday."

I think we all know how hard it is to fight in a pineapple suit.
