If you listen to this song, I think you’ll understand her talent—she’s truly a prodigy.

This is a song that surely only she could sing.

Makoto Kawamoto’s 20th debut anniversary brings her first new song in three years—an earnest track that reportedly took five months to complete since 2015.

It seems there is also a version of the same song with different lyrics.

The suggestive title appears to reference Eikoh Kano’s womanizing scandal.

It’s a track that showcases shrewd commercial instincts.

Anyway, it’s a wonderfully comforting track.

When you listen to it, it warms you up, makes you sleepy, makes you feel lonely—it stirs all kinds of emotions.

The instruments as a whole feel cohesive, with not a single part seeming unnecessary, so it might be interesting to focus on a different instrument each time you listen.

A track included on the single “Fairy Tunes,” released in 2011 under the name Makoto Kawamoto feat.

TIGER FAKE FUR.

As the title suggests, it’s a gentle song that invites you to relax and take in the scenery around you.

The B-side track of the first single “Ai no Sainou,” released in 1996.

Among the songs she composed herself, this one is her debut work.

With a heavy, thick bass, sharp and edgy funky guitar, and crisp lyrics delivered in a driving vocal style, it’s a number that gets crowds going live.

Its J-Rock-meets-funk vibe feels unlike the typical image of Makoto Kawamoto, making it a fresh and interesting song.

The song included on the sixth single, “Binetsu,” and a heavily revised version of the track featured on the album “gobbledygook” are both included.

Progressing with a slightly eerie atmosphere, this song is said to be an answer to critics’ reviews, and it conveys a sense of pent-up frustration.

A song included as the final track on the second album, released after an interval of about four years.

Starting with this album, the arranger changed from Tetsuo Ishikawa to Hyouei Yasuhara.

It’s a fine track that lets you fully enjoy Makoto Kawamoto’s beautiful vocals along with a relaxed melody.
