MISIA – Sweet Lover (Official Music Video)

It’s actually a song about melon bread.

The tune is cute, and the Melon Panda that appears in the music video is adorable too.

I’ve heard the song came about from MISIA’s love of melon bread.

It’s not a major release—probably a hidden gem that only MISIA fans know.

It’s a retro, 1970s-style soul number with choruses.

It’s said to express a heartfelt cry: “Like the wind, like a flower, let’s keep our hearts pure and unadorned.
