[Hatsune Miku (40mP)] Karakuri Pierrot [Original]

A song about a girl who keeps waiting for her lover even two hours past their meeting time.

Unable to accept that she’s been dumped, she sings that as long as she can stay with them, she doesn’t mind being like a puppet or a clown who’s just manipulated.

It’s famous as a heartbreak song, but I can’t help sensing a suspicious, obsessive vibe in the way the girl still clings to the other person.

DECO*27 – Toxic Possessiveness feat. Hatsune Miku

A shocking work that portrays a warped form of love.

Frenzied obsession and possessiveness are expressed through electronic sounds and Hatsune Miku’s translucent vocals.

The conflict of excessive affection—desperately trying not to lose someone so precious you can’t take your eyes off them, yet ending up hurting them—is woven with DECO*27’s characteristically deft word choice.

Included on the album “Conti New,” released in March 2014, this piece may prompt you to face your own emotions when your feelings of love seem on the verge of running wild or when you’re suffering from attachment to someone important.

Produced in November 2016 as the theme song for the film “My Tomorrow, Your Yesterday,” this piece portrays the poignant feelings of a woman who has decided to part ways.

These complex emotions are expressed with delicate nuance.

Written and composed by Iyori Shimizu and co-arranged with Takeshi Kobayashi, the song reached No.
