Summer MonologueYamazaki Masayoshi

The words I left behind at summer’s end have become memories that still continue even now, and the line about the one I loved “hiding their tears” may be because we were caring for each other.
Still, the part that says “I never managed to say what mattered most,” even after time has passed, is that one phrase you only realize after losing it… surely words of love.
A town with sloping streetsYamazaki Masayoshi

This song is said to be about the time when Masayoshi Yamazaki moved to Yokohama right after coming up to Tokyo.
Since it’s from before he became popular, I feel the lyrics are very real and relatable.
Listening to this song, performed with just a single guitar, makes me feel somehow very nostalgic.
It earnestly sings about everyday feelings, like reading aloud from a diary.
Thinking that even people who’ve become big and famous had times like this makes me feel a bit relieved.
