They are a British dance-vocal group.

They have a mature coolness and are great singers—perhaps similar to EXILE in Japan.

It’s a song about not being able to say words of apology, no matter what.

The emotions are poured into the vocals, and listening to it can bring you to tears.

King’s universally known classic “Stand By Me” has served as the theme song for the film of the same name and has been covered by many artists, so many of you have likely heard it.

Even when you feel lonely and isolated, it reminds you that you are not alone.

The wistful loneliness of the ’70s is irresistible.

It fills me with nostalgia and makes me feel like heartbreak doesn’t matter anymore.

The vocalist’s voice really touches my heart and puts me in an emotional mood.

It leaves me with a curious, almost surreal feeling—and somehow, it soothes my broken heart.

It’s a breakup song about her.

It makes you think that you mustn’t take the happiness right in front of you for granted.

You might feel you don’t need the sun when it’s hot, but when it’s cold you realize you do.

I think it’s a song that makes you reflect not only on love, but on life as well.

The Japanese title “Hitoribocchi no Lonely Night” is a single by Paul McCartney released in 1984.

The song was also included on the album “Give My Regards to Broad Street.” It’s a gentle love ballad with a slightly melancholic mood that’s very characteristic of Paul.

When Paul says, “I don’t want another lonely night!” his straightforward words convey the loneliness so clearly.
