TAEKO's sexy and powerful vocals are awesome with Latin rhythms!! The roaring guitars and flashy horns make the song even more exciting!! This song was created with the hope that the audience will enjoy the fun of Latin music while playing percussion. The percussion instrument played in the game is the "timbales", which is often used in Latin music. I want you to hit the timbales solo in a flowing way.

I made this based on the Long Ver. from the soundtrack CD. On the soundtrack CD this song had a piano solo, but this time we tried with a gut guitar solo. A stylish gut guitar solo, right?
==== Hideyuki Ono ====
I changed the piano solo into a gut guitar solo based on the bonus track long version of the soundtrack. It's even cooler and more stylish. I never get tired of TAEKO's growing vocals, no matter how many times I listen to them. After all, summer means Latin.

Lyrics

Game Size

Smile and you've taken me by surprise
For a while I'm content just to look in your eyes

I was alone but I never felt lonely
My heart was reserved for you only

Helpless
When you touch me I'm powerless
I need you so much baby I'm helpless

Long Version


Lie on the deck of this open yacht
Watch the sky the Caribbean Sea is so hot
Feeling the wind; I can smell the sea
And I hear how the ocean is calling to me

I never knew all the world had to show me
I never let anyone know me - 'cause you know
I was the girl with the strongest defenses
Safe inside my world of pretenses

Smile and you've taken me by surprise
For a while I'm content just to look in your eyes

But when you touch me it feels just like magic
Makes my years almost tragic - oh baby
I was alone but I never felt lonely
My heart was reserved for you only

Helpless
When you touch me I'm powerless
I need you so much baby I'm helpless
