Kyousuke Himuro is a Japanese musician and singer-songwriter. He was the lead vocalist of the rock band Boøwy from 1981 to 1988. After the band disbanded, he went on to have a successful solo career, becoming one of Japan's best-selling artists. In 2003, HMV ranked Himuro at No. 76 on their list of the 100 most important Japanese pop acts. He currently lives in Los Angeles, California. Himuro's song "Calling", from his 1989 album Neo Fascio, was used in the ending credits to the 2005 film Final Fantasy VII Advent Children. The film's director, Tetsuya Nomura, noted that Himuro's music has been highly influential in his own work. When asked about his contribution to the film, Himuro said that he was happy his work would be used in "the best CG movie ever made in Japan". The Japanese release of Final Fantasy VII Advent Children Complete featured a new ending song by Himuro, "Safe and Sound", which features My Chemical Romance lead singer Gerard Way and replaces "Calling".
