Although the original version was camp, Saijō's version was intended to seriously inspire "young men".
Saijō's career spans over three decades. He gained popularity again in the 1990s in the cartoon Chibi Maruko-chan and by releasing a cover version of the Enrique Iglesias song "Bailamos". He also sang the theme song and became the character (specially created for the Japanese version — Lucky Mucho) in The Emperor's New Groove and also performed "Turn a Turn", the first opening theme song for ∀ Gundam.
In the late 1990s, he also appeared on an episode of the original Japanese cooking show Iron Chef as a guest judge, for the Rice Battle, involving Iron Chef Japanese Masaharu Morimoto and Chinese chef Masayoshi Kimura.
In 2003, around the time that his 85th single was to be released, he suffered a mild stroke while performing overseas in Korea. After rehabilitation, in 2006, he released his 86th single, "Meguriai". Lyrics were set to André Gagnon's "Comme au Premier Jour".
In 2009, he released a downloadable single, "Vegetable Wonderful" which is tied to the NHK program, Time for Vegetables.
He married for the first time in 2001. With his wife Miki Makihara, he has one daughter and two sons.
His sister was the wife of Masaru Takumi, a powerful Japanese organized crime figure assassinated in 1997.
Saijo died from acute heart failure in Yokohama hospital on May 16, 2018.
Hideki Saijo debuted onto the Japanese music scene on March 25, 1972. Since then, he has been a trail blazer in the Japanese music industry. He was the first Japanese artist to peform as a solo act in a stadium--for ten consecutive years. His fans brought flashlights to the first stadium concert. The following year, penlights were sold at the venue--for the first time! His chart topping hits and unforgettable melodies make his music legendary. Hit songs like, "Jonetsu no Arashi", "Kizudarake no Lola", "Young Man - YMCA", "Galundo", "Bailamos, Tonight we Dance" and many others are still a favorite today!
His illustrious career has spanned over three decades and continues! On Sept. 27, 2006, Hideki released his 86th single, "Meguriai". The original melody was taken from the Canadian Pianst, Andre Gagnon. The hauntingly beautiful melody and the deep, soulful lyrics, it is a perfect song for Hideki--now 51 years old.
A new release isn't newsworthy but in Hideki's case, it is! In June, 2003, Hideki was in Korea, doing a corporate gig when he realized that something was wrong. Somehow, he finished the show but collapsed afterwards. He didn't know it then, but he had suffered a minor stroke! Immediately after the stroke, he suffered from neuropathy and most importantly, he lost control of his ability to control the notes that he sang. With rehabilitation, his voice returned and he continues his career!
His determination to continue his career, his integrity and passion for music lives on today.

歌唱力ももちろん素晴らしいが、歌を歌いながらの
ボディーアクションに全くの無駄がない。
必要以上に左右に動き回らず、どんな激しい曲でも
腰のひねりと上下の動きをバランスよく保ち、それ
に合わせて手の振りが自然に連動する。
あくまでも【歌手ひでき】としてのプロ意識を先行
さながらの歌とボディーアクションの妙、その切れ
の良さと美しさには誰もが等しく共感せずにはいら
れないだろう。
天性の素質と努力に裏打ちされたパフォーマンスは
誰にも真似の出来ない(振りだけは真似ることがで
きても誰も様にならない) オリジナルだ。そして、
その独自のアクションはまさに【西城秀樹ワールド】
の真骨頂である。
そのステージプレイス（居場所）は、誰にも踏み込む
隙を与えない、神聖な領域と言っても過言ではないだ
ろう！
ところで、僕と彼は同じ昭和30年生まれの同学年
なんですね。
改めて同じ世代のひとりとして、彼の偉大な足跡と
誇り高き生きざまに敬意を表します。
僕らに大きな喜びと深い感動を与え続けた
トップシンガー【西城秀樹】に 心から感謝！！
@user-cu3ev2yi9j
素晴らしいコメント ありがとうございます🙇
鋭い、的を得た洞察力に感銘を受けました!
おっしゃるとおりです!
何もかも 極められた誰も踏み込めない 神の領域のステージですね
同じ振りができても 秀樹さんの流れるような無駄のない
美しいポージングは 秀樹さんでしか表現できません❤
歌唱力 生き様 全てのにおいても誰も超えられない 高みに西城秀樹は 今も大スターで輝き✨続けています。

【ソングロード・歌の旅路】
自称ソングユーチューバー
西丸恭兵と申します。
心・技・体 、その三位一体は、一朝一夕では会得
できませんよね。
彼のパフォーマンスは、天性の素質に加えて
絶え間ぬ努力の積み重ね以外のなにものでも
ありません。
そして、なによりも【歌うことが死ぬほど好き】
という最大の要素（強み！）を天から与えられた
秀樹の絶対的幸運！
その幸運を満遍なく活かし、多くの賞を受賞し
ましたよね。
天に召されるその日までファンに愛され続け、
不世出の【スパースター】という地位を確立し
た西城秀樹。その足跡と偉大さに対し大いなる
祝福と感謝の念を捧げます！！

一、やめろと言われても 今では遅すぎた
激しい恋の風に 巻き込まれたら最後さ
やめろと言われても 一度決めた心
この身を引き裂くまで
恋にこがれて やかれて
もしも恋が かなうならば
どんなことでもするだろう
僕の人生を 変えてしまうのか
黒い 黒い 瞳の誘惑
二、やめろと言われたら 死んでも離さない
地の果てまでも行こう 君をこの手に 抱くなら
やめろと言われたら よけいに燃えあがる
この身を引き裂くまで
恋にこがれて やかれて
切ない胸 夜はふける
これが恋の 仕打ちなのか
僕の人生を 狂わせるような
黒い 黒い 瞳の誘惑

懐かしいですね！「西城秀樹」と言ったら、私達の時代は「激しい恋」「ブーメランストリート」「ブーツを脱いで朝食を」「君よ抱かれて熱くなれ」「ギャランドゥ」「走れ正直者」「Y.M.C.A.ヤングマン」などなど・・凄く、歌や踊りが好きで、真似していました。西城秀樹が亡くなってから、今年で5年になります。CDから流れて来る歌を聞きながら、踊り(フリ)を真似してます。1970年代から、2018年の間、ヒット曲を、この世に出してくれて、ありがとうございました。西城秀樹の曲は、これからも歌い続けられるでしょうね！ご苦労様でした。秀樹、ありがとう！

かっけー！！！ ２歳年上の姉がファンでした。 小生はどちらかというと郷ひろみ押しでしたが（笑）いま見れば、絶品ですねえ。

西城秀樹さんは､男らしく整った精悍な顔立ち､それでいてｾｸｼｰな目鼻立ちに､長身で脚の長いｽﾗﾘとｽﾘﾑなｽﾀｲﾙと抜群の運動神経も備えて､性格の外面的な部分はｽｹｰﾙが大きく情熱的でﾁｬﾚﾝｼﾞ精神に溢れて常に前向きで人には優しく､性格の内面的な部分は人懐っこくて無邪気で素直で裏表の無い方でした｡
ﾀﾞｲﾅﾐｯｸなｱｸｼｮﾝと､ﾊｽｷｰでｴﾓｰｼｮﾅﾙな歌声による全身全霊をささげて聴衆の魂を揺さぶる絶唱での､奇跡のﾋﾞﾌﾞﾗｰﾄを効かせた圧倒的な歌唱力､そしてそこから生ずる唯一無二のｽｹｰﾙの壮大な音楽の世界観と､まさに規格外にｶｯｺいい方でした｡
派手なｱｸｼｮﾝやﾏｲｸｽﾀﾝﾄﾞによるｽﾃｰｼﾞ演出､絶唱型の歌唱ｽﾀｲﾙが､徐々に世間に浸透して､今では後進のﾛｯｸ･ｱｰﾃｨｽﾄに受け継がれて当たり前になりました。ﾃﾞﾋﾞｭｰ当時その容姿やｽﾀｲﾙの格好良さから､ｱｲﾄﾞﾙとして認識されましたが､今であれば当然その歌唱力や音楽性からｱｰﾃｨｽﾄとして認識されて､本格派のﾎﾟｯﾌﾟｽ､ﾛｯｸ歌手だったのではないでしょうか｡
その御活躍をﾄﾞｷｭﾒﾝﾀﾘｰにした特集番組をこれからも(今度は地上波で)放送して､生前にも十分に伝えられてはいないと感じる､その容姿､歌唱力､音楽性､姿勢､ﾊﾟﾌｫｰﾏﾝｽの素晴らしさを伝えて欲しいと願います｡
