<pre>It happened over many dawns, the greatest story
Even when surrounded by laughter, I entrusted my hope in what I believe
Spreading outside the window is the blinding morning light, a crowded 246
We've told each other the things we wanted to say, my friends
Bye bye thank you
Bye bye thank you my fellows
Bye bye thank you
Bye bye thank you forever</pre>

== Song Production Information ==
=== dj taka ===
Quite a lot of time has passed since I first got involved in the production of beatmania.<br>
When I first started out, my senior colleagues taught me various things to be aware of, or rather, what sorts of music, arrangements, and game patterns don't fit beatmania.<br>
For example:


* The beatmania and beatmania III game versions of fellows use a shorter version of the song that fades out after Sana's vocals are finished.
* Don't be repetitive, have progression
* Use a lot of sounds, the flashier the better
* Don't assign bass sounds to the keys


== Trivia ==
And so on and so forth.<br>
These ways of doing things certainly made sense in terms of the game.<br>
I wrote my own songs along these lines as I simultaneously directed outside artists in the same way, and that's how it unfolded.
 
However, through various songs, I gradually started to learn that there are other different ways to create interesting songs.<br>
During the very last opportunity for beatmania, I attempted to create a good, interesting song while intentionally using all of these supposedly bad techniques.<br>
That song turned out to be fellows.<br>
It's also a message of gratitude to the great beatmania, which made me into who I am.


* In beatmania/beatmania III, fellows' artist was capitalized as '''dj taka feat.sana'''.
The organ in this song is in an extremely simple style: no progression, very few sounds.<br>
* fellows' genre, EPILOGUE, is a reference to how beatmania THE FINAL was the last game in the original beatmania series.
Actually, from the time the song begins until it ends, it repeats the same four measures, with absolutely no progression.<br>
* fellows will be added to REFLEC BEAT groovin'!! Upper on December 25th, 2014, as part of the 2nd Set (chosen by [[Yasuhiro Taguchi|TAG]]) of the BEMANI MUSIC FOCUS unlocking system.  
The number of tracks, or "the number of sounds," doesn't even crack 10.<br>
* fellows was Sanae Shintani's only song she ever sung exclusively for an arcade beatmania game.
Both of these were things that supposedly didn't fit beatmania.


== Song Production Information ==
For the vocals, I had the staff search for people who have an affinity to beatmania, but there was only one person who could fit the bill, so I asked for Sana.<br>
Officially, this is my first time working with Sana, but I think she sung better than any vocalist I've recorded up to this point.<br>
It was very cool to see her sing, it was like a wind blowing through the booth.<br>
I felt very moved that she became an amazing musician through various experiences ever since she started out in beatmania.<br>
Oh, right, I heard that Sana's official website is open, give it a look too.
