Like "Chikara" and "[[BREAK DOWN! (GF&DM STYLE)|BRE∀K DOWN!]]," you should be able to play them with the band, so give it a shot!!

Yahh! Yahh! Super music start!

君はなんて言う名前なの? どこかで見た顔かも
特に目立たない それは小さかったから
いつしか色がついて 目に溜まる事が増えた
少し背も伸びた いつか大人になるんだね
美しくなるにつれてその姿に引き寄せられ
本当は知ってたの 小さなあの頃から WOW~

心まで照らしてた 太陽みたいになりたいって
あの頃の君はそう言っていたね
そうさちょっとだけでも 太陽に一歩近づくんだ
眩い光を浴びて生きるまで「ヒマワリ」

季節は過ぎ
巡ってゆく
今日もまた

美しくなった君は
僕の隣で笑いかける 握り締めた手は今も小さいから WOW~

心に照らし出す 瞬きもできないくらい あの頃の君を忘れないように
そうさちょっとだけだけど 太陽に一歩近づけた
眩い愛を与えて生きる君は「ヒマワリ」

Long Version

Japanese


君は何て言う名前なの?
何処かでみた顔かも?
特に目立たない
それは小さかったから?

いつしか色がついて
目にとまることが増えた
少し背も伸びた
いつか大人になるんだね

美しくなるにつれて
その姿に引き寄せられ
本当は知ってたの  小さなあの頃から・・・

心まで照らしてた
「太陽みたいになりたい!」って
あの頃の君はそう言っていたね
そうさ!ちょっとだけでも
太陽に一歩近づくんだ
まばゆい光を浴びて生きる
まるでヒマワリ

いつも側に
この花を
咲かせていよう

君は負けず嫌いなほうで
昔から変わらないね
いつもひとりで前だけをみつめてた
色んな現実を見てきて
環境も変わっただろう
独りよがりな
君はもうここにはいない

柔らかな日差しを背に
優しい瞳で僕を見てた
僕には前より鮮やかな君が見えた

心から照らされた
そんな気がした
心が満たされた
君がいたから?

心を照らされた
全てを優しく包んでた
いつも僕を曖めてくれてたんだね
そうさ!"君"がここにいる
何もかも明るく照らしてた
まばゆい光を放ち生きる
君はヒマワリ

いつのまにか
過ぎる日々を
大切だと感じながら
季節は過ぎ
今日もまた二人で
過ごしている・・・

美しくなった君は僕の隣で笑いかける
握りしめた手は今も小さいから
変わらないまま・・・

心に照らし出す!
瞬きもできないくらい
あの頃の君を忘れないように
そうさ!ちょっとだけだけど
太陽に一歩近づけた!

まばゆい愛を与えて生きる
君はヒマワリ

Hii☆★
Riyu Kosaka here.

This time, "Himawari" will be included in beatmaniaIIDX HAPPY SKY.
I'm really happy because "Himawari" is one of my favorite songs.
Speaking of sunflowers... Summer!
Speaking of summer... blue skies!
And speaking of blue skies... Happy Sky!? It's a great season.
Summer is hot. Very hot.
In this hot, hot season, we can get through it as high, bright, and bold(?) as a sunflower that grows straight up to the sun..

And if you enjoy playing beatmaniaIIDX HAPPY SKY and have "Happy" days, Riyu will be "Happy" too.

"Himawari" is BeForU's third project for GF&dm, after "Chikara".

It's one of my best numbers of 2003, in which happy hardcore-style drumming is intertwined with my own guitar, the rhythmic and energetic vocals of Riyu Kosaka, and the lyrics, which only Kosaka could write, are matched with high tension.

I call this sound "J-HAPPYHARD CORE rock".
It is in the vein of my style in "CANDY" and "LOVESHINE".
However, "Himawari" is a brand-new original song for GF&DM, so the guitar is pushed to the forefront, and the drums can always played by real drums (laughs).

Like "Chikara" and "BRE∀K DOWN!," you should be able to play them with the band, so give it a shot!!

And much like "Chikara", the lyrics are also very moving, so listen carefully to the message in the song!

amamon.

Nostalgic, that's all I can say!
I'm kind of embarrassed to see something I made two years ago on a different model like this....

In fact, I didn't do anything for this transplant.
It's the same as the original, though the size is different.

I didn't do anything, but I got a credit in the staff credits. Lucky.

AMAMO

The third BeForU song in Gitadora!

This is a fresh and youthful song, so RIYU and the other BeForU members are also dressed in fresh-looking outfits.
(By the way, RIYU's hairstyle is slightly different this time ^^;)
Anyway, my first impression of this song was "running", so RIYU is running around this time.

As human beings, in our youth we want to run toward somewhere.
Looking back, those days were the most lively...
In which we feel like we could do anything without "fear".

The overall image of the clip is like "BRE∀K DOWN!" but with a pop-colored screen.
The pop feeling is important after all!

This song is bright and fun.
Please play it!
