2013年に翔央くんはミュージカル『Club Slazy, the 2nd invitation*』に出演した時、「Peaps Gospel」というソロ歌った。シンプルなのに、凄く綺麗で心を打つ曲だね。翔央くんにとってぴったりだったと思う。[ *2013年12月6日～15日 全労済ホール・スペースゼロ、東京・Peaps役(ピーップス)]
In 2013 Shoon took part in a musical titled "Club Slazy, the 2nd invitation"*, in which he played the role of Peaps, a newly hired back-dancer in a nightclub. (I think the name is misspelled and it should be "Peeps", though.) He sang this solo, which is a simple but lovely and poignant melody. [*2013.12.06-15 Tokyo]

藤田玲くんと渡辺大輔くんとのリプライズに3人のハーモニーは美しかった。
He also sang and recorded a reprise version with Rei Fujita and Daisuke Watanabe, and their harmonizing is so beautiful that I decided to upload it here too.

SYNOPSIS (credits to: https://slazywaltz.tumblr.com)

Introduction to the "Club Slazy" series

At Dilly Dally St. 24-7, Club Slazy is a place dedicated to lifting sadness from women’s hearts, and can only be found when you receive a Garnet Card. The top performers there are called Lazies, ranked from the Top Ace to Second Ace, Third Star, Fourth Star, and Fifth Star. Aspiring to those positions are the background dancers called the New Jacks. All the performers are named from the letters of the alphabet.
Tinkering behind the scenes, the Mystics erase the footprints of the guests every night. Unlike the performers, they’re named by numbers. The Manager is the one running the show. He is assisted by his Shadow, a figure that is bound to his will and can only be seen by him, the Mystics, and the Owner. The Owner of the club is Mr.X, a powerful man who enjoys toying with members of the club. He makes it as difficult to leave the club as it is to find it. Situated below Club Slazy is the vaguely creepy Underworld, and looming above is the soulless world of Tori.

"Club Slazy the 2nd invitation 〜 Sapphire"

The story starts before the events of ”Club Slazy OPEN”, the first instalment of the series, when King (Daisuke Watanabe) was the Top Ace of the club. It also introduces us to Q (Kohei Norizuki), the head of the Mystics. King becomes enamoured with a woman who continually occupies the special seat meant for the person with the deepest sadness, yet who leaves before his performance every night. This mysterious young woman, as we will find out, is related to Peaps (Shoon Yamashita), one of the newly hired backdancers.
