Shota Shimizu “Prologue feat. Aimer” MV

A love ballad that conveys a poignant atmosphere, expressed as a duet by Shota Shimizu and Aimer.

Centered on piano and strings, the arrangement gradually grows more grand, reflecting a sense of one’s heart opening up.

The lyrics begin with the trauma of a past romance and the inability to find the courage to face a new love, and as the song progresses, they portray the resolve and emotional shifts of someone striving to move forward despite their pain.

Sung by both a male and female vocalist, it evokes each person’s feelings, scenes of them drawing closer to one another, and an image of the two moving toward happiness.

It’s a song that, through the act of singing, could become a catalyst for deepening their bond.
