Kuchizuke – L’Arc~en~Ciel

A track inserted as the first song on the album “SMILE.” Since it’s also the opening track of L’Arc-en-Ciel’s first album after their restart, some of you may remember it.

Beginning with an exchanged kiss, it depicts two people melting into each other’s world—a bewitching quality that also comes through in this medium-tempo rock tune.

It’s included on the nationally beloved band L’Arc～en～Ciel’s 2005 album “AWAKE.” It’s a mid-tempo song that showcases vocalist Hyde’s clear, soaring voice.

L’Arc～en～Ciel has many hit songs, and this one is a hidden gem as well.

Centered on the piano, this song strongly retains the qualities found in other L’Arc-en-Ciel tracks.

It’s a gentle ballad and a hugely popular masterpiece by the band.

Toward the end of the piece, the melody transforms as if it’s crumbling, which is highly captivating.

The composition was done by Ken.

It is included on their second album, Tierra.

The die is cast.

An exhilarating, up-tempo number that evokes the spirit of youthful rock, bursting with a sense of speed! Included on the single “Lies and Truth,” released in November 1996, this track pairs sharp perspectives—like inescapable fate and irony toward society—with a bright, uplifting sound.

Though a B-side, it ranked 8th in a fan vote for live performances in 2008, a testament to its enduring popularity.

If you’re facing a major decision and feel there’s no turning back, listening to it might mysteriously fill you with the energy to look ahead.

Released in November 2007, the masterpiece KISS debuted at No.

1 on the Oricon Weekly Albums chart, marking L’Arc~en~Ciel’s seventh No.

1 weekly album.

From this album, I’d like to highlight a gem that quietly shines, evoking a seaside scene before your eyes.

Its melody line, reminiscent of gentle waves, showcases tetsuya’s refined songwriting.

The lyrical worldview suggests a fleeting love story with a mermaid, or perhaps an eternal farewell that arrives without a word—tightening the chest with its poignancy.

The futility of an unfulfilled love, a sense of loss like fruit plucked before it ripens, intertwines with hyde’s emotionally rich vocals to resonate achingly in the heart.

Listen quietly by the seaside at twilight, and it will surely offer a gentle companion to your sentimental mood.

L’Arc～en～Ciel The Rain Leaves a Scar (with lyrics)

The title The Rain Leaves a Scar carries the meaning “Not even the rain can heal my scars.” This song is included on the album heavenly, and unusually for a L’Arc-en-Ciel album, this is the only album where a fierce track is placed at the end.

Performing with a sense of flashiness reflects the members’ image of this song.

L’Arc~en~Ciel – Voice | Subtitle Indonesia | 25th L’Anniversary LIVE

The second track on their first album, DUNE, released in 1993.

It sings of anxiety about the future, yet also the hope that there’s surely something ahead.

Sonically, it gives the impression of straightforward guitar rock.

There are versions performed by each of L’Arc-en-Ciel’s drummers throughout the band’s history.

It’s also the first song guitarist ken wrote as a member of L’Arc〜en〜Ciel.
