It was the commercial song for Subaru’s Legacy, aired around 2008.

Back then, fans were hyped because L’Arc-en-Ciel was doing the tie-in.

Speaking of Subaru, that distinctive engine sound is really cool.

This song surely played a part in that.

Released in 2007, this song was used as the opening theme for the anime Mobile Suit Gundam 00.

The vocalist hyde wrote the lyrics, expressing a woman’s feelings for a beloved man who must go off to war.

Deep themes for an anime, indeed.

This is the first track on the album “True,” released in 1996.

A staple of their live shows, it’s a familiar song to fans and was also included on the best-of album “The Best of L’Arc~en~Ciel.” Its gently drifting, beautiful melody line is tender, seductive, and dramatic.

A strings version was performed during the “20th L’Anniversary TOUR.”

It’s not a very famous song, but if I had to pick one that feels like summer and the tropics, it would be this.

The steel guitar sound, the melody, and Hyde’s sweet vocal harmonies evoke the image of some island in a tropical paradise.

I think it’s also a perfect track to listen to while sunbathing by the pool.

TRUSTL’Arc〜en〜Ciel

L’Arc~en~Ciel L’Arcasino TRUST

With an unparalleled sense of musical sophistication, the visual kei rock band L’Arc~en~Ciel has garnered high acclaim not only in Japan but also in Europe, where musical standards are considered especially high.

They have many classic songs, but the one I particularly recommend as a practice piece for vibrato is “TRUST.” This tastefully crafted rock ballad features multiple long tones.

HYDE’s vibrato is textbook-level stable, so try practicing by imitating his approach.

Feeling FineL’Arc〜en〜Ciel

Laruku Feeling Fine

Feeling Fine portrays someone stepping forward toward the future while still grappling with a past romance.

The track was included on rock band L’Arc-en-Ciel’s 2004 album SMILE.

Alongside hyde’s cool yet radiant vocals, the band delivers a refreshing, energetic sound.

When a relationship ends and you’re feeling lonely or anxious, that’s exactly when you want to hear a song that lifts your spirits.

Rather than forcing yourself to forget a heartbreak, this rock number gives you the push you need to face a new tomorrow.
