Special long interview arrived!

★★SELF-LINERNOTES★★★★

1.me & my bird prince The image is of a mini-theater, where four sheep-like things are singing in a chorus while falling apart. Like a sponge cake commercial? 2.closet Since everything is tucked away in the closet, it will one day become a deep forest full of secrets, and if you go in, you will not be able to get out. If you go in there, you will never be able to get out! That's why you can't go in there! At first, the drums were only to be played, but I had Mr. Ota-Koji play them, and he played a lot of drums. As a result, the temperature difference between the drums and the rest of the performance created an interesting effect. 3. Come on over. If you compare what happens when you are attracted to someone as if that person has built a house in your heart on his/her own, then of course you would want to build your own house in his/her heart as well. Since it is probably not easy to build a house, you build it in your imagination, and then wait for your friend to come to your house. The idea came to me suddenly while I was actually waiting for my friend. I asked Mito to play bass, Sakata to play drums, and Seigen Tokuzawa's quartet to play strings. I was happy to be able to make use of a lot of the three-piece playing we did on the last mini-album and the strings we have arranged since the first album. 4. me.ga.ne. I was thinking melody, melody, and then the melodious chorus came out. 5.classroom In my junior high and high school days, math class was a time for "thinking. I was so serious about thinking that I didn't really understand math anymore. I even got chalked for talking during class.... We combined such "in-class" atmosphere with a sticky "broadway" atmosphere. 6.summer When I think of "summer" when it is not summer, the image of being at a loss is strong in my mind, and for some reason there are big dark memories of Atomic Bomb Day and the anniversary of the end of the war, but the sunshine is very strong and active. I think it's ironic. There is also Obon. 7. The Way Home This is the only track with only piano and singing. I wrote this song to perform at the first LOHAS Classic Concert before my debut. Maybe that's why I feel the words are so pure, and I'm a little itchy myself. 8. Daisy This song was written by Mito. I have always wished I could add more masculinity (rock?) to my music, and Mito-san has done it beautifully. The drummer was Mr. Kashiwagura of toe. The recording was a lot of fun and I was very happy. 9. Daisuki na Hito An image of two happy people with melancholy. I also wanted to express the mysterious connection that I vaguely feel. 10. Kimi wa genius （This song was created by thinking that even the streets of Shibuya (which I hate) can become a stage full of dancing flowers right after falling in love, and that it must be a skip to move around, and that when you inevitably tap the asphalt with a magic stick, stars will burst out from everywhere. 11. Touch Me Yuichi Ohata wrote the lyrics. The lyrics are very expansive and strong, so I thought a lot about how to sing them. 12. to stanford Stanford is the name of a town in Connecticut, above New York City, where I once took a train to go to work part-time. The train was used by people who lived in such a suburban residential area and went to work in Manhattan to commute to work. But I liked to watch the changing seasons and the beautiful sunsets from the train and think about all kinds of things. Mr. Sakamoto liked this song from the first demo we made 2 years ago, but we never got around to revisiting it and reworking it. I was finally able to include it in the demo. I was finally able to include it this time.
