Squall, Sakura Zaka, Niji are few of the songs that have made particular oustanding marks in Masaharu's career. Good night was his breakout single which gained a lot more audiences to his music because of its tie-up with a J-drama. Fukuyama mostly composes and writes lyrics of the songs in his albums. In a recent interview he said "In music, if you are producing your own songs, you will need to be working alone most of the time. Composing, recording, pre-production, re-arrangement, slowly building up your song bit by bit, rebuilding as you finish it and then doing the same for each song one after another. It’s a very time-consuming process whichever way you look at it. " Read more on Last.fm. User-contributed text is available under the Creative Commons By-SA License; additional terms may apply.
