Beyond the Eve of the Midnight Sundeddobōru P

Sang “Beyond the Eve of the White Night” (Black Panda)

It’s set up so that Miku lives with Santa, and it seems she’s sulking because Santa left her all alone on Christmas.

But there were also some lyrics that made me laugh, like, “Hey, Miku, what are you doing?” It looks like she wants to hog Santa—no, the presents?—all to herself.

They harmonize throughout the entire song, but it’s interesting that each of them expresses the feelings of a different character.

And the structure culminates with the two meeting at the end.

Only for you, only mineshigoto shite P

[MEIKO] Only for You, Only for Me [Original Re-edited Version]

With a Nordic atmosphere, the romantic intro starts on a somewhat up-tempo note.

It single-mindedly sings of wanting to deliver one’s voice to the person they love and the feeling that they will meet someday.

It’s a wonderful song that conveys a core strength, like moving forward alone through the snow.
