Stop putting on a brave face.
Yayoi Ken Naoko

Lyrics by Yoko Aki, music by Ryudo Uzaki.

The song sings of atonement toward a child who, due to circumstances, could not be born, as well as feelings of apology toward the family formed afterward, self-admonition, and sorrow.

It’s a song so shocking that you may be taken aback when you hear the lyrics.

Love, how is it? Romance, how is it?Naoko Ken13rank/position

It’s a hidden gem known to those in the know from her peak era.

Released in 1983 as her 32nd single, it was used as the campaign song for the “Biryūshi Foundation” commercial, and—as the unique title suggests—it’s an enchanting track.

The lyrics were written by Yukinojō Mori, famed for penning many of Kyosuke Himuro’s songs.

Dressed in a black suit with a pompadour, she looks incredibly stylish—almost unimaginable by today’s standards.

She’s like early Janet Jackson.
