This is a positive and catchy | ==== NAOKI MAEDA ==== | ||
This is an energetic and active dance number. If their previous song "[[DIVE]]" ("Be For U"'s debut song) captures a dark tone, "Firefly" contains a light image. Positive feelings are essential for humans to live... the lyrics contain a highly emotional message and breathe life into this song, further providing it with a live feeling. | |||
==== Liner Notes ==== | |||
This is positive and catchy pops, which is completely written in Japanese. The title "Firefly" conveys the message "let's shine and fly towards tomorrow". The pure female vocals, and the up-tempo but somewhat sorrowful melody, lets listeners feel positivity. By all means, I'd like for female D.D.R. players to consciously dance to this dance unit's number with hot taste. | |||
