Lyrics

Don't ever stop, don't ever quit
Don't ever take your love from me
Yes, it's a win, you are my friend
You are the best thing ever happened to me

Don't be afraid, let's play the game
You should know our love will always stay the same

Don't ever stop, don't ever quit
Don't ever take your love from me
Yes, it's a win, you are my friend
You are the best thing ever happened to me

No one could ever come between you and me, baby
Because you're the one a friend should be

And if you should fall, I'll pick you up
Oh sweet baby
As the years go far, you always have me

Don't ever stop, don't ever quit
Don't ever take your love from me
Yes, it's a win, you are my friend
You are the best thing ever happened to me

Don't ever stop, don't ever quit
Don't ever take your love from me
Don't ever stop, don't ever quit
Don't ever take your love from me

Song Connections / Remixes

Trivia

Song Production Information

dj TAKA

Right when I started making REINCARNATION, as I was fiddling with a variety of synths to find something unique, I discovered a sound that represented something like an "idol of the past", and I played around with this as if I were playing a song.
Incidentally, as the song's production advanced, I had deemed the sound unnecessary, but we had already entered the final stages.
After we added the vocals, the song gained a surprisingly different, soulful-like aura. Personally, I'm happy I was able to put this type of song into the game. Everyone, please play it often~.

Video Production Information

VJ GYO

When dj TAKA started making a new song, he sometimes mentions the name of an idol from the 80's, saying the song is in a ○○ style.
It seems like he originally specialized in rock (when we went to do karaoke before this, he was especially familiar with visual kei rock bands, and was very good at singing), but I remember many examples of active rock group members being in charge of composing songs for idols at that time, and I would think, "Eh! This person?".
Is it actually your specialty, dj TAKA?
So, this song was certainly reminiscent of a certain idol at first, which was a bit sweet, but the sound's features had an endlessly clear image which made me think "oh!?", but in the end, it contained a strong, powerful, happy tune.
I felt a bit disappointed.
