In case you didn't know, during the TK piano solo at the Relation live, one of the songs he played was by notorious 80's idol Okada Yukiko, who will probably always be remembered for the way she took her own life at her prime.
Here's an excerpt from the piano solo: rapidshare.de/files/13055092/TK_piano_solo_-_Mizuiro_Princess.avi.html.
And here's an MP3 of the original song for comparison: rapidshare.de/files/13055465/Yukiko_Okada_-_10_-_Mizuiro_princess__Mizu_no_sei.mp3.html.
I think it's a bit interesting that the one time he plays a song in one of his piano-solos that isn't classical (though it's pretty clearly classicaly-influenced) or self-produced, he would play a song by a singer with a past like that. And with the rest of the Relation live being as thematic as it is, is it possible to read some meaning into the choice of song?
Perhaps what he meant was that he understands the pressure that artists have on them? Maybe that was what the slumping down over the piano symbolized, the tiredness that comes with being in the spotlight... but that the music eventually brings him back...
