Lyrics
Japanese
あのひとのママに会うために 今、ひとり列車に乗ったの たそがれせまる街並や車の流れ 横目で追い越して あのひとはもう気づくころよ バスルームにルージュの伝言 浮気な恋をはやくあきらめないかぎり 家には帰らない 不安な気持ちを残したまま 街はDing-Dong遠ざかってゆくわ 明日の朝ママから電話で しかってもらうわ My Darling! しかってもらうわ My Darling! My little darling, my little darling My little darling, my little darling

Music Comment
A nostalgic melody played on the radio. A standard song dedicated to girls out on a journey!
Song Production Information
PON
It's a wonderful gift from Gitadora!
As many of you know, this song was the theme song of a famous animated movie.
By the way, I love the ending too.
Even now, when I hear this or that song, I am reminded of the cobblestone-like streets of Europe.
I guess that's why I like cobblestones and brickwork so much.
No, maybe not, maybe it's RPGs.
The key to the alignment is how much gauge is left in the string and chorus interplay in the last eight bars.
Use your right hand to handle the 16th trill strings, and your left hand to hit the chorus!
The timing is easy to shift, so be careful.
Hmm.
I wonder what a herring pie tastes like.

At all times, I design, draw and move the characters. This is my second time working on Gitadora.
This had a completely different tune from last time, so I was able to create it with a fresh mindset.

I've seen Kiki's Delivery Service, in which this song can be heard, many times on DVD.
I really like this undescribable, precocious feeling.
I have reserved the next DVD.
I wonder if I should go back to the museum...
mayo
I've seen this anime maany times, such a nostalgic song!
I like the "bunchaka, bunchaka, bunchaka" part, it's kind of retro♪
shio
Wow, nostalgic! I went to the cinema to see it! I love the scene where this song starts playing on the radio. Whether you watch it as a child or as an adult, it's a really amazing and interesting work. I also love the ending song. Both are masterpieces!
I would like to play more related songs in pop'n.
I believe in the magic of someday.
Gaasuu
I was thinking how familiar the theme of the movie was to me, but then I realized it was announced before I was born!
The content of the lyrics was astounding...
Mameshiba
It is said that lipstick is hard to remove, no matter how it is in the bathroom, so you might not want to pass on the message too much.
Is she, by any chance, going to see her boyfriend's mother because he cheated on her?
Also, the fact that something is written in rouge in the bathroom... I have a feeling there's quite a lot of anger there...
Also, her boyfriend's mother... hee! The melody is refreshing, though.
Kinoko
The same red message can be that of "rouge", which is fashionable, but can also be that of "nosebleed", which is very horrifying!
wac
I have felt rather down at times, but how am I doing?
When I talked about new music before, I said something about how people are drawn to music that gives a fragrance of the time when they were born.
This is a song from that very time, and, in fact, for some reason, I only have albums of that person before she changed her surname.
Whether or not it was a good song choice for THE MOVIE is a matter of debate,
but the fact that the music was selected without much concern for the movie songs and the like,and that I wanted to add
a little warmth to the licensed music in the end, must have been due to the strong impression the movie left on me.
I think I was just about the same age as the lead girl back then.
My starting point was that of competing with my classmates in transcribing
those wonderful BGMs by ear and playing them using the MSX's FM synths.
