Song of the Eternal NightKami wa saikoro o furanai

On sleepless nights, I suddenly remember someone precious who’s no longer by my side.

This is a tear-jerking rock ballad that sings of a heartbreak so intense it feels like your chest might burst.

It’s a work by the Fukuoka-born band God Doesn’t Roll Dice, included on their mini-album “A View on Lambda,” released in May 2019.

Starting with an intro that feels like turning back the hands of a clock, it builds to a dramatic chorus where emotions spill over all at once, sending shivers through your heart.

It also served as the theme song for the film “Little Subculture Wars: The Rebellion of Village Vanguard!” released in October 2020.

It’s a song that gently stays with you on nights when you can’t let go of a love you can’t forget, or when you want to sing your heart out and cry at karaoke.

God doesn’t roll the dice, but he gifts a bittersweet summer love song.

Titled with the word “utakata”—a term used to describe things fleeting—this track portrays a romance that flares like fireworks, shining only for a moment.

Many listeners will likely be moved by the ephemerality and poignancy of this one-summer love.

Released on July 17, 2020, this song became their major-label debut first digital single.
