This piece features a beautiful harmony of the soft sounds of electric piano and acoustic guitar.

It’s a ballad that sings of the frustration of being unable to convey feelings of love.

By likening those feelings to coffee, it conveys the poignant ache of swallowing one’s emotions toward the other person.

With its bright melody, lively shuffle beat, and bold string arrangement, this piece has the feel of a wonderful grand finale, like the last scene of a musical film.

In fact, the song has been used as the ending theme on several TV shows.

Before releasing this track, vocalist Kenta Kataoka had paused his activities after losing his voice due to illness, and Lovers was the song released upon his return.

It became a deeply meaningful and celebratory work for both the band members and the listeners.

A song that wishes from the heart to help people who are sadly forcing a smile.

Even though I’m only a faint light myself, it carries the resolve to protect what matters.

It straightforwardly expresses the feeling of “I want to protect them, but I can’t—yet I still want to protect them,” the pure care for someone important.

This song was also used as background music on Sukkiri Japan.

This song, included on the album “Familia,” features a funk-style beat layered with a refreshing melody.

The lyrics focus entirely on breathing—inhale and exhale—but when sung with such a beautiful melody, it somehow makes you really want to take a deep breath.

It starts with a refreshing melody that feels like spring and summer! It’s a pop song that’s very sumika-like.

I think it’s rock that’s easy to listen to not only for sumika fans but also for first-time listeners.
