Long Version
Japanese
1.夢中で走れ 門限ワープ
落っこちてくる 夕方の空
タタンと膝に張り付いたゲンキ
明日から夏休み
※ドリルを広げて
スイカをかじって
お父さんは生ビール
※※あの頃の私 思い出してた
訳なんかないけど
不安も野望も「漢字」も知らない
まっさら だったよ
大切な想い出が ふわふわ
ねぇ 君も何か話して
2.どうしてかしら 視線はループ
告白したい 大好きです
鼻のてっぺん 顔を出してる
このニキビ両思い？？
前髪気にして
台詞（せりふ）をおぼえて
だけどなにも言えなくて
あの時の気持ち 思い出してた
なんでかな ふいに
カケヒキなんかは 当然できない
まっさら だったの
制服の白いシャツ きらきら
初恋はまぶしすぎたね

さりげなく横で君が笑う

That popular KEYBOARDMANIA song appears in pop'n!!
Song Production Information
KEYBOARDMANIA
From when did we change?
I suddenly remember those days when it was "brand new".
Seiya Murai
The previous MIghty Gyy was well-received, so this time, I got carried away and went in another J-POP approach! I aimed for a popular song that surpasses "Mighty Guy"!! (laughs)
How was it? When listeners listen to it, they can understand the motif, but after all, is it nostalgic?
The lyrical contents has the theme of "summer vacation memories during childhood". It's a bit too seasonal, but I created it during the height of midsummer, and it seemed to just have a slight healing effect on the developers, who tirelessly worked day and night. Everyone was looking into the distance while playing it~ (laughs).
The artist is natural bear. I use this unit name when I'm making J-pop songs, and this isn't only fictional, but the lyricist has a prismatic singing voice (laughs), and I decided to use this name when co-creating songs with Kiyomi Kumano.
It's also written in katakana in pop'n 4. However, Kumano really sings with various voices~.
