SignalSaitō Kazuyoshi

Kazuyoshi Saito – Signal (Full Length Ver.) [Music Video]

Although it sings of lingering attachment to a finished romance and a farewell, the piece somehow feels refreshingly light.

“Signal” is a track from the 21st album, “55 STONES,” released in 2021.

The easy-on-the-ears band sound meshes beautifully with the lyrical world.

You can feel the sadness and loneliness, yet by the end it leaves you with a dry, clear aftertaste.

This holds true for many of Saito’s other songs as well, but since there are almost no parts that require belting, it’s very easy to sing.
