English

Sun Shine!!
Clearing the clouds to make a Blue Sky
The rays of light carry a H-O-T, dazzling premonition of love♡

Love Beat!!
The mood also Heats Up!
Basking in the light
So I can go to where you are

O God please give me some small courage
I'm almost ready to tell him "I love you♡"

Just be yourself
When you meet him
Let it be natural
Love's attack!!
Take in the moment you are in
And smile as big as you can!!

The heartrending bittersweetness
Of the beginnings of love
Strikes like an arrow given a powerful spell

O God, for a little bit longer,
Please watch over me
I'm going to burst proclaiming my strong feelings

Deliver me!! More of that dazzling LOVE♡SHINE!!!

Song Production Information

NAOKI

It's a J-HAPPY HARDCORE number with NAOKI's recent full-throttle sound.
It burst into high tension for the first time in a while, and is recently one of my favorite songs.
After BRE∀K DOWN!, BeForU broke out with member Riyu Kosaka.
Her effective vocals are beatful and punchy, with a vertical groovy beat number containing very good chemistry, and she poured her entire soul into LOVE・SHINE.
I really care about current trends, especially since we're transitioning in the middle of a convenience era.
If my music is stoic, I guess it's because I'm obsessed with commercial POP. The reason is simply because POP is my "favorite" genre.
This song is exactly like that, and I called it J-HAPPY HARDCORE, a song which made me want to advance towards an unprecedented genre in J-POP.

DanceDanceRevolution

NAOKI MAEDA

Making CANDY♥ finer, it contains MAX cuteness and is a straight groovy HAPPY HARDCORE number with an energetic ROCK taste.

This is a song that makes you feel excited and energized, enjoying the sunshine with your body, without thinking about anything.

PURE and HAPPY feelings... Have you recently forgotten when you became an adult??

This song was very popular during the location test. I tried to make the background appear flashy. Please be careful not to be overwhelmed by the shine of the heart object in the center!

Ah, I want to go to the southern islands...
