Am I the only one who felt there are a lot of ballads on the album DAHLIA? It might be inevitable given the members’ ages, though.

That said, X JAPAN is a band that churns out hits even with ballads.

They’re beautiful ballads in YOSHIKI’s distinctive, slightly classical style.

Lonely TimesYONA YONA WEEKENDERS

I think its chill vibe matches the feeling of autumn.

Released in January 2021, this song is a gentle self-affirmation anthem that finds a sense of “you-ness” in being alone.

The city-pop sound and Kunsan Isono’s expressively rich vocals really sink into the heart.

The laid-back sonic texture slowly spreads through your ears and body.

I recommend listening to it while taking a solo walk at dusk—you’ll likely find yourself deep in thought.

It’s YUI’s first release after moving to STUDIOSEVEN Recordings and it reached No.

4 on the Oricon charts.
