I wish everyone around the world is happy. This is a peace loving house song.

=== DJ.W ===
Hello. Is it still DJ.W? I want to change it anyways.<br>
I was given this false name by clever people.<br>
I have nothing to do with a disc-spinning job in the first place.<br>
So I don't want to say what DJ stands for even if I die.
 
It's been approximately two years since I properly wrote a song, but with the help of Lala Moore and many others, I was able to create wonderful memories. I'm grateful.<br>
The topic wasn't addressed at all, but my personal favorite part was the chorus by Mori no ki jidou gasshoudan.<br>
The part where the older lady and them are singing "turu-turu" together.<br>
When I missed the final train of the day as usual and walked home in approximately four hours (how stupid of me), I thought "it's a dangerous world in many ways, so let's create a happy song"<br>
"I hope children will enjoy living in the 21st century!"<br>
These were all examples of thoughts which led me to decide on adding a children's choir in the song.<br>
Since it's called a children's choir, my initial impression included boys and girls, but I only saw junior high school girls gathered when I went to the studio.<br>
I was nervous if they called me a fraud while I was waving a conductor's baton and said "Three, now".<br>
Although I'm becoming old and completely worn out, I had the illusion that these lost, pure feelings were restored.<br>
Let's all have that illusion while humming and playing this song.

=== GOLI ===
Clouds. [[Yuji Takahashi|YUZ]] acquired the still-images from Guam for the first time.<br>
Of course, he used them without permission.<br>
The winged person. When I listened to the song, a chicken came across my mind....<br>
Turu-turu = Clucking.
 
Although I'm becoming old and completely worn out, I had the illusion that some lost, pure feelings were restored, but they were illusions after all.<br>
I only had the image of a chicken in my mind....
