This song is the result of [[Hiroshi Takeyasu|HIRO]] asking me to make a Sana song that would fit her current image. And so for this tune I wrote English lyrics. I hoped Sana liked the song when she listened to the demo tape of the song, and she did, bringing color to the song even during its recording, finishing fairly quickly.
From master Hiro's advice "we need to include at least one Sana song here, after all", I included a song that fits Sana's image so far. I also wrote English lyrics for this song. When Sana listened to the demo tape, she loved it, and with the addition of her own singing tone during the recording, it turned out very stylish.<br>
 
It might be very difficult to listen to this song with explosive sounds throughout the arcade, but when the [[pop'n music 4 arcade originals|soundtrack]] releases, I hope you can carefully listen to it in a quiet room.
This is a song I could imagine listening to in a quiet room, when the soundtrack and the like come out, but it may not be a tune one could catch so easily in a game center full of loud sounds.

Game Size

Cracked cup and sooty pot
Sweet'n sweety coffee and tepid pie
Tickless clock show four AM
Silly TV says a pack of lies

Hungry cat and withered plant
Crumpled shirt and strained pants
Mailbox eats many junky foods
Neighbors quarrel about there border line

Don't be suffer alone I'll tell you what to do
Fly high...
I know what you're afraid about

Straighten up arms and keep on flapping like birds
Fly high...
To the place you have never ever seen before

Long Version


Cracked cup and sooty pot
Sweet'n sweety coffee and tepid pie
Tickless clock show four AM
Silly TV says a pack of lies

Hungry cat and withered plant
Crumpled shirt and strained pants
Mailbox eats many junky foods
Neighbors quarrel about there border line

Don't be suffer alone I'll tell you what to do
Fly high...
I know what you're afraid about

Straighten up arms and keep on flapping like birds
Fly high...
To the place you have never ever seen before

Slicker's lip and clumsy kiss
Tedious song and childish game
Many ants aim at candy box
Gold fish is swimming around up side down

Faithful dog and naughty kid
Rousty bike and ragged shoes
Noisy PC gives up tiny works
Bookmark is keeping up the end of page

Now, the time has come, don't throw away your memories
Fly high...
You should take courage and fly

Straighten up arms and keep on flapping like birds
Fly high...
To the place you have never ever seen before

Music Comment

How do you escape from a boring life? The answer is... in Sana's new song.

Song Production Information

Seiya Murai

From master Hiro's advice "we need to include at least one Sana song here, after all", I included a song that fits Sana's image so far. I also wrote English lyrics for this song. When Sana listened to the demo tape, she loved it, and with the addition of her own singing tone during the recording, it turned out very stylish.
It might be very difficult to listen to this song with explosive sounds throughout the arcade, but when the soundtrack releases, I hope you can carefully listen to it in a quiet room.

I tried to make her have calmer colors than RIE♥chan, and her movements eventually turned out like this after worrying for several days, because her previous movements didn't really suit her.
