Joe Inoue was born in Los Angeles, California under Japanese parents who moved to the states to follow their career.
He grew up in an environment filled with music, and started listening to music seriously in his middle school years.
He listened to as many types of music, no matter what the genre. In fact, he still does. That is where he got his versatility in creating music.
Despite his birth in Los Angeles, Inoue never failed to learn how to speak fluent Japanese. He achieved this mainly by "reading crapload of comic books and watching Japanese tv shows", he says.
Gradually, Inoue started recording his own materials on a multi-track recorder, with him playing every instrument, including vocals, and yeah, I mean, everything.
In 2005, he decided to send few of his demos to Japan, and signed a record deal with Kioon Records.

身近にある物
常に気を付けていないと
余りに近すぎて
見失ってしまいそう
あなたが最近体験した
幸せは一体何ですか？
恵まれすぎていて
思い出せないかも！
今ここにいる事
息をしている事
ただそれだけの事が
奇跡だと気付く
身近にある物
常に気を付けていないと
余りに近すぎて
見失ってしまいそう
You know the closer you get to something
The tougher it is to see it
And I'll never take it for granted
Let's go!
人助けを偽善と
呼ぶ奴等もいるけど
信じるのも疑うのも
人それぞれだから
たとえ仮にそれが
偽善であったとしても
誰かを救えたなら
そりゃむしろ何よりもずっと
追い続けてきた夢
あきらめずに進めよなんて
キレイ事を言えるほど
何も出来ちゃいないけど
一握りの勇気を胸に
明日を生き抜くために
And I'll never take it for granted
Let's go!
Misc. Person: Everybody make way for the King!
Misc. Person: This way, sir.
King: So you are the young boy who saved the world.
Joe: Yes, your Highness.
King: You will be rewarded for your bravery. What is it that you want? Gold? Silver?
Joe: No, your Highness.
King: Is it land?
Joe: No, sir.
King: Well, what is it then?
Joe: I don’t seek any more, for I have already acquired a gift in my heart.

Let's go! Lyric added by: DeadArt
You have to always be careful
With the things closest to you.
You get too close, and
You'll lose sight of it.
What the heck is this happiness
That you experienced recently?
Maybe you are too blessed,
And cannot remember!
Being here now.
Breathing.
I've just noticed
That these are miracles.
You have to always be careful
With the things closest to you.
You get too close, and
You'll lose sight of it.
You know the closer you get to something,
The tougher it is to see it.
And I'll never take it for granted.
Let's go!
Even though there are those
Who call the act of mercy hypocrisy,
Because there are both
People who believe and people who doubt
Even if, for example,
That is hypocrisy,
If someone is salvageable,
That is always better than anything else.
Go forward without giving up
On the dream you are chasing!
As long as you brag,
You won't be able to do anything.
In order to survive another day,
I'll gather a handful of courage to my chest.
And I'll never take it for granted.
Let's go!
