The Blue of the Sky and True Feelings (2013 Remaster)

EMMA, the guitarist, composed this song, which was inspired by a guitar riff.

She says it’s her favorite among the pieces she’s written herself, and she feels a deep attachment to it, often becoming quite emotionally invested.

It’s also a song that remains highly popular with fans.

Rose Prostitute Reina (Remastered)

Though the title is shocking, the song portrays the relationship between Jaguar, a soldier featured in the concept of the third album, and a prostitute named Reina.

The guitar in the interlude has a Latin feel, and when combined with the violin, it creates an even more seductive finish.

FATHER – THE YELLOW MONKEY

This is a song he sings to Kazuya Yoshii’s father, who passed away when he was little.

I think it’s filled with Yoshii’s feelings, as he often sees himself reflected in his father, who worked as a traveling performer.

It’s a gentle song that somehow lingers in the heart.

This is the English version of the song “Sweet Experience,” released in the UK.

In the chorus and other parts, there are sections where the feel of the words matches “Sweet Experience.” In the music video, the band members perform in a child’s room, and in the latter half a green baby doll appears, creating a strangely captivating visual.

Their nickname is The Yellow Monkey (Iemon), a rock band formed in 1989.

Their sound, which blends glam rock with a kayōkyoku (Japanese pop) flavor, gained wide popularity and propelled them to the forefront of Japanese rock.

Although they disbanded for a time, they reunited in 2016, and their sensuous sound remains as captivating as ever.
