Mrs. GREEN APPLE – lovin’

One standout track with a refreshing, upbeat sound is “lovin’.” It’s included on Mrs.

GREEN APPLE’s 2019 album Attitude and was chosen as the theme song for Mezamashi Doyoubi.

The song sings of a life lived alone and the love nurtured with a precious person met along the way.

Its worldview makes it perfect for weddings, and I think it’s an ideal choice for two people embarking on a new life together.
