Lyrics

One day I bask the rays of the sun
as eat a sweet cake.
And I remember I long for the world
I know never hopeless dream.

I'm bored ordinary life like everyday.
If I'm a princess, what feeling?
I wanna be with my heart leap up for the world I don't know.
Don't U think?

Wanna give a party now with you!
I'm covered with sweet smell.
My body is tucked a pretty dress.
☆I am a dreamin girl☆
I make merry with you!
Shall we dance here now
according to this song?
Let's have a good time, you and me!!

Song Production Information

Kotomi Sugimura

Hello (^-^) Nice to meet you. I'm Kotomi Sugimura. How's wish? Has the Euro ver. appeared?
The girl in this song's ☆wish☆ is to become a princess. Wearing cute dresses, having parties, and enjoying dances. However, I know that dream will never come true, and this is such song. The lyrics are in English, but actually, English is one of the things I'm bad at (^_^;)
But I wonder if I should take this opportunity to study it (o^-')b... just a bit.
For the movie, I challenged myself to portray three different characters. When I first saw the completed version, I thought "this, it's me, right? (・_・ )"... something like that.
It's a mysterious feeling to see myself through the screen. "wish" was created by borrowing the power of various people, so please play it if you'd like (^-^)/

Yoshitaka

This already became the third song in my nearly BPM115 song series, and as the leader of the let's make slower songs committee, I'm a bit sad that there isn't much demand for slow songs, but I created this song with belief that there's certainly people requesting it.

Well, composing is essential, but this has a slightly different direction to my previous song Catch Me.
Catch Me constantly has 2 chords looping round and round, but wish has a solid pre-chorus, and dance music basically consists of looping chords, but by adding a different development to the pre-chorus, this song has a slightly similar approach to pop songs.
This track hasn't changed much from my previous song, with deadly bouncing rhythms and an expressionless bass, and I also solidified it with my beloved acoustic guitar and soulful scratching.
I asked ERi to write the lyrics, who helped me with Catch Me, and I'm a native Japanese, so I don't know what she's saying at all, but since the lyrics were added later, it was too easy.

I'm so happy that people will recognize that it's dance music which is conscious of pop, not a pop song which is conscious of dance music.

Video Production Information

yagi-denko

The concept is about "two girls encountering each other from different worlds".
A girl who wandered into a different world, and a girl waiting for someone lonely.
The relationship between them is...?

Being aware of creating videos which take advantage of interesting sound gimmicks, whether its a "dream" or "reality", an event occurs in an unrealistic space... I tried to make it with such image in mind.
I'd like to take this opportunity to thank Sugimura, who did her best wearing light clothing despite being outdoors in the extreme cold, and to everyone in KONAMI who ordered people around, such as doing chores.
