Mr.

Motohiro Hata soothes our hearts as listeners with his delicate lyrics and vocals.

“Before the Morning Comes” is packed with the charm of Hata, whose true forte lies in medium-tempo numbers like “Ai” and “Himawari no Yakusoku.” The gentle, water-like wavering of the heart, the pain of parting, and the bittersweet feelings well up little by little, bringing you to tears you can’t hold back.

The arrangement by Masanori Shimada—renowned for his work with aiko and Ikimono-gakari—is also beautiful, leaving a striking impression with a resonance that somehow overlaps with the stillness of late night into early morning.

While the song’s atmosphere is a guaranteed tearjerker, its lyrics portray a powerful resolve that lifts your spirits—truly a wonderful track.
