indigo la End – Not Reflected in Your Eyes

Even just the title stirs up a pang of sadness—indigo la End’s “Hitomi ni Utsuranai” (“Not Reflected in Your Eyes”).

The song gives the impression of a woman who thinks only of him with single-minded devotion, while he wavers, unable to commit, drifting.

Even if she sees herself as the so-called “convenient woman,” she still loves him so much and can’t let go of the hope that one day he might be hers alone.

There’s the frustration of wanting to convey those feelings but failing to get them across.

The music video features Haru, and it became a talked-about track for its poignancy.

indigo la End “Tulip”

A gemlike ballad by indigo la End that richly portrays the process of losing someone dear, using the language of flowers that symbolizes the end of love as its motif.

It deftly weaves in the tulip’s meanings—red for a confession of love, yellow for unrequited love, and white for lost love—delicately expressing how feelings once fully dyed begin to fade.

Released as a digital single in February 2020 and later included on the album “Yakō Himitsu,” this song gently accompanies those who cannot yet accept a farewell or who wish to linger in memories of someone special.

It’s a track you’ll want to listen to on a day steeped in the gloom of the rainy season.

When your feelings for someone start to overflow, try listening quietly while standing in the rain—you may feel a sense of your heart being cleansed.

indigo la End "The Night Train Runs"

The guitar sounds really cool and gives a bright, upbeat feel, but the lyrics are heartbreaking.

It’s a song that expresses the bittersweet feelings of a girl who, once she falls in love, wants to prolong the end, can’t easily forget, and doesn’t want to forget.

I also love how the feelings for the person she likes are expressed as a night train—it’s so indigo-like.
