Thanks! I went with a random Wikipedia page for that name and forced myself to use the whole title, but I agree with you.
I just noted that both The Last Target and Last Target are existing bands by the way 😊

Yo wtf chikan otoko is now a live action??? OMG
edit:
Got too excited that I forgot to read your whole post.
Can you put up the link for the movie?
edit2:
Well you can buy it here for like 5 dollars. Apparently she only had this single under warner music label.
Also you can sample the song here.
You have this:

And this:

These are the legitimate discs, the KH1 soundtrack was officially released in the US, however I don't think the KH2 soundtrack was released in the US.
Here's what I found: Shoot Sign, Heavy Rotation, Aitakatta.
It seems that Aitakatta doesn't have multiple versions. Here is a link to the one I found on Amazon. When you search Aitakatta, other group versions come up if you want to check those out. Hope this helps!
As /u/eureka7 said, unfortunately Housei hasn't released a lot of original music, I think he has too much fun covering other's songs in karaoke contests etc. heh. I really wish they'd put out a Yamasaki Produce CD with the original draft songs he sung that the other guys used for rehearsals.
So as eureka7 found, he did compose a debut album for AiAi, here's the tracks:
According to his Japanese Wikipedia, he also composed some songs for Ayumi Murata (村田あゆみ) back in 2007 (three weeks after being hospitalized for that intestinal problem mentioned in the Hospital batsu). They were to be used as insert songs on the radio show he was on at the time.
I found lyrics that match yours, but am having trouble tracking down the actual song:
SNoW - Through My Eyes
I think it's from this album.
EDIT: I was only able to find a 30 second preview on amazon.jp.
Amazon JP has one copy of the single left, it should have global shipping but if it doesn't you can use a proxy.

Amazon actually is a great place to pick up stuff like this. You can pick up their latest EP right here
Ulfuls, Spitz, Oda Kazumasa, Southern All Stars, Hirai Ken, Tube, SMAP...Chage and Aska's "Say YES" is a pretty retro choice but still a classic...depends what you're into. I'm an old fart but this compilation CD has some good stuff, especially ballads.
Metal Gear Solid 20th Anniversary Soundtrack
You can get it cheaper elsewhere, but if you want the best general selection across most of the games, that's the one. Soundtracks are pretty tricky across the board, licencing issues make them a strange thing to get right. If you want everything, you'll have to just buy, everything unfortunately
How about music that shouldn't be pay to download, i.e. music that has been around for 100s of years?
On another note most of the music I like is nigh impossible to find to buy. Basically I can download it or I can buy it from a website where I have no assurance that any of the money -- usually an outrageous amount for import CDs -- actually goes to a particular artist, that is if they have the artist at all. Sure there are alternative means like getting an itunes Japan/other country card, (there still is the language barrier to deal with) or waiting until a domestic version is released, which will never happen for most bands/artists, or even from certain people who bring imports over to sell at conventions, none of which are in a relatively close distance.
Even if I import music I have to worry that it won't play on my computer, some Japanese CDs have "we must contact a server in Japan" DRM and other such silliness, or even customs confiscating my package.
Sure it's easy for you folks that enjoy domestic music, or just music in English, you can just get online to some place that is easy to navigate and find what you want, however for me most of the time it is difficult to find music I want to download, let alone buy.
Sure, if music I wanted was readily available in a easy to access way to buy, I would do it, but it isn't so I'm not going to go through the rigmarole and inflated import prices just to make myself feel better about burning a hole in my pocket.
Now, some foreign artists have had releases over here and I've bought them in order to support more coming over, but they are few and far between, also itunes US does have some music from places that I might enjoy, but not in the sheer quantity I can find on the internet.
I have only bought things that I have already listened to and enjoyed, I figure that is the way most buy music, and until there is a radio station with music I would enjoy listening to I will still download just to get a preview and see if I enjoy it enough to buy.
Just as a few examples:
This is a relatively cheap import. That is from an older band and most of the newer CD imports are a bit more pricey, like here, here, and here.

The 5.6.7.8's are too cool for school. Every one should own a copy of Teenage Mojo Workout.
