Biography
At the age of 12, Koichi joined Johnny & Associates, one of Japan's most famous talent agencies (they produce most of Japan's No.1 male idol groups including SMAP, V6 and Arashi). His sister is partly responsible for this as she was the one to send his profile to Johnny's (she was a huge fan of Shounentai, Johnny's longest-lived group).
At the beginning, he appeared in various TV dramas and performed as a back dancer for groups like SMAP along with other Johnny's Juniors. One of them was Tsuyoshi Domoto with whom he formed the group 'Kanzai Boya' in 1993, this name was changed to 'KinKi Kids' for their official debut in 1997 (KinKi being taken from the Japanese area 'Kinki' where both of them come from).
On Jul 21st, 1997 'KinKi Kids' officially debuted with the single 硝子の少年 (Glass no Shounen) which hit #1 instantly. Ever since then, all of their singles have been #1 hits which has gained them an entry in the Guinness Book of Records for the most consecutive #1 singles.
Since 2000, Koichi has been the leading character in the musical 'SHOCK' which is performed in the Imperial Garden Theater of Tokyo almost every year.
In 2004 Koichi held his first solo tour where he mainly performed songs from the 'SHOCK' musicals as well as his solos from 'KinKi Kids' as well as some own tracks.
His first real debut as a solo artist was on Jul 12th, 2006 with the release of the single 'Deep in your heart/+MILLION but -LOVE'. His first solo album entitled 'mirror' followed on Sep 13th 2006. The album release was accompanied by his second solo tour of the same name, 'mirror'.

堂本光一 Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
手に入れたいもの全て 簡単に手に入ると信じてた
ひと目逢った瞬間に
Heart 掻き乱されて
Your sexy eyes トパーズの輝きで
見つめてる no matter what I give
怪しく you screw me up 狂わせる
愛に愛されたい +MILLION but -LOVE
どうにかなりそう going down down, tell me what's love?
全て賭けて その心を魅せたい
もう手遅れなのか? I'm a fool
ダイヤ転がす指で とけるような夜を届けたい
何かを失ってもまだ 手に入れたいのはそう君さ
抱きしめるだけなら 何も必要無いさ
Money and love? Money or love?
教えて 迷わせる no matter what I have
激しく you mess me up 惑わせる
ふいに降り掛かる +MILLION but -LOVE
必要なのは money? No, no tell me what's love?
いつのまにか 強く絡み付いた
ほどけないくらい you're my love
愛に愛されたい +MILLION but -LOVE
どうにかなりそう going down down, tell me what's love?
全て賭けてその心を魅せたい
もう手遅れなのか? I'm a fool
ふいに降り掛かる +MILLION but -LOVE
必要なのは money? No, no, tell me what's love?
いつのまにか 強く絡み付いた
ほどけないくらい you're my love
愛無く -love
The lyrics of 堂本光一's song MILLION are about a man who is searching for love but is confused and unsure of what love really is. He has pursued love in the past, but it hasn't worked out for him, and he is starting to doubt whether he will ever find it. He has been led to believe that everything he wants can be obtained easily, including love, but now he realizes that love is much more complex and elusive than he originally thought.
The first verse describes the man's past experiences with love, where he pursued it with a carefree attitude and believed that he could obtain it easily. However, he has had his heart broken in the past, and he is hesitant to fall in love again. The chorus is about the man's desire to be loved, but he is unsure of what love really is. He questions whether love is about money or something deeper and more intangible. The second verse talks about the man's desire to give love, but he is afraid that it may be too late for him, and he may be a fool to keep searching for it.
Overall, the lyrics of MILLION capture the emotional complexity of falling in love and being unsure of what it means. The song is a heartfelt ode to love and the human experience of seeking it out, even when it seems elusive and unattainable.
