You’ll hear many lines that evoke different fairy tales, so keep an ear out for those as you listen.

Her digitally released single “Lost stars,” the second in her series of monthly releases, stands out with its airy track and clear, high-tone vocals.
Many listeners will likely relate to the lyrics that depict the heartbreak and scenes of a broken romance.
It’s an emotional number with a sentimental melody that stirs the heart.

DAZBEE’s songs, loved for their translucent vocals and expressive power, have been selected as the theme for the drama “Suppin Hero.” Inspired by a wild rabbit and a sea turtle, this exquisite love song portrays a bittersweet longing for someone living in a different world.
The unrequited feelings and the efforts to bridge that distance resonate deeply with listeners.

JOYYU-KI
From the lyrics and melody to the promotional video, “JOY” is YUKI’s world in full bloom! What exactly is this worldview that irresistibly captivates listeners and viewers alike? “JOY” means “delight” or “joy” in Japanese.
Keep that in mind as you listen while reading the lyrics! The worldview is unique, but I find the romantic lyrics truly lovely.
