DREAMS COME TRUE – “Give Me a Gentle Kiss”

Even a love that didn’t come true is miraculous simply because you met that person and fell in love at all, isn’t it? Among DREAMS COME TRUE’s many famous songs, “Yasashii Kiss o Shite” is especially popular.

When you read the lyrics, there’s definitely a sense that something’s complicated.

Two people have fallen into a forbidden love.

Even though they know they can’t be happy if they keep going like this, once you’ve fallen in love, it’s not so easy to give up.

The protagonist of “Yasashii Kiss o Shite” calmly observes her own wretchedness, pathos, and the helpless situation she’s in, and resolves, “Even so, I want to love this person.” It’s a song about a woman who, though she knows it won’t be fulfilled, keeps thinking of one person with unwavering devotion—both delicate and strong.

The song Yadorigi was chosen as the theme song for a character appearing in the smartphone game “#Compass: Combat Providence Analysis System.” It’s a track included on the major-label first album Otogi, and the contrast between its distinctive sound and rock ensemble creates a strong impact.

While it’s challenging due to its wide vocal range and many rapid-fire phrases, there aren’t any large melodic leaps, so it’s quite singable if you try it in a key that suits you.

It’s a fun pop tune to sing, featuring an impressive, slightly wistful melody carried by a lively beat.

Yamiyo – Eve MV “Dark Night”

Yamiyo, the first major-label digital-only single, was selected as the second ending theme for the TV anime Dororo.

Its ethereal sound and richly layered ensemble perfectly complement lyrics that, while dark, still convey a sense of positivity.

The vocal range is relatively narrow and the tempo relaxed, making it easy to sing; however, be mindful that if you don’t lean into the bounce of the shuffle beat, you won’t capture the original feel.

Also, there are occasional leaps in pitch, so take care not to slip off the notes.
