Loverssumika
Released in 2016, “Lovers” could well be called one of sumika’s signature songs.
It opens with a bouncy piano melody and gives a pop impression, yet it really hits home—with philosophical lines and phrases you wouldn’t normally say to someone you love that make you go “oh?”, and a surge of passionate feeling that comes through.
It evokes the emotions that come from being together for a long time, and it brings back memories of those youthful days—embarrassing yet fun—like our own “youthful indiscretions.”
