You Tell Me

This song was used as the theme for the WOWOW drama “xxxHOLiC,” based on CLAMP’s manga.

In this video, it’s performed with just an acoustic guitar, letting the lyrics and melody flow straight into your heart.

The singing style is very straightforward yet full of expressiveness, and even first-time listeners will likely be captivated by its charm.

Where the bouquet wentchay

Bouquet No Yukue

It’s a celebratory song that half-jokingly, half-lonely sings, “I can’t believe you’re getting married before me.” It’s a track by singer-songwriter chay, who also works as a fashion model, included on her third album “Lavender,” released in 2019.

The lively horn section and bright, uplifting sound are striking.

Maybe it’s the melody, but it also has a somewhat retro vibe, which is really nice.

Let’s use this song to celebrate our friend’s happiness!

chay – AS TEARS GO BY(Acoustic Ver.）

Included as a coupling track for “Suki de Suki de Sukisugite.” It’s a cover of a classic by The Rolling Stones.

Like the original, it’s performed with an acoustic guitar, and beyond the impressive guitar technique, it’s a lovely cover that conveys deep respect for The Rolling Stones.

True Colorschay

chay 「True Colors」

It is included as the coupling track for “Summer Darling.” It’s a cover of a Cyndi Lauper song.

The vocals are delivered tenderly, the acoustic guitar is beautifully played, and it’s a truly wonderful cover.

It’s also a song that could spark an interest in Western music through chay’s work.

Wisheschay

chay – Wishes

Following “Twinkle Days,” this song was also selected as a Pantene commercial theme.

It’s a very satisfying track that moves from beautiful string tones and a four-on-the-floor rhythm into a 16-beat chorus.

The chorus, sung with a rich, expansive delivery, is exceptionally rewarding to listen to.
