TUBE / Beach Time

Among TUBE’s summer-themed songs, this piece stands out for its richly emotive, nostalgically drawn love story.

Also known as a KIRIN Lemon commercial song, it’s characterized by its refreshing sound and Nobutaka Maeda’s cool, crisp vocals.

It begins with a short intro and launches into a poppy 8-beat that evokes a summer beach, giving listeners the feeling of being transported to the seaside.

Depicting romantic feelings under the blue summer sky, the song expresses both the heat and the bittersweet ache of love through images of hot winds and coastal scenes.

This track is one of them.

The Latin guitar in the intro whisks listeners away to a southern European paradise.
