Lyrics
Japanese
女性 また少しあなたの髪 グレイに変わったの
私好みの色に 染まってゆくわ
男性 誘惑の真っ赤な薔薇 それは君のことさ
あの日あの時から この道はもう戻れない
二人 誰にも知られず 交わすアイコトバ
女性 赤いピアス
男性 時計はずす
二人 それでわかりあう
二人 息も詰まるほど みつめあう二人
男性 帰さないよ
女性 帰らない
二人 二つ影消える 街角

Music Comment
"Hey hey, who's going to sing next? Huh~!? Kachou and Mami-chan?" A common scene during such karaoke.
Song Production Information
Seiya Murai
This song contains the scene of a boss who likes duets, and a female office worker who has no choice but to follow along, which seems common in drinking parties held by any company. The singers, Kazao Kachou and Mami-chan, have such relationship.
Don't you think it's interesting that there's a gap between Kachou's slightly sexy singing, and Mami-chan singing like she's indifferently working (laughs)?
This song's genre can also be called mood kayou, and since I've never made a song in this genre, it was quite difficult.
Since it's karaoke, I included some detailed tricks, such as the dropping key in the beginning, and the performance cutting off before the song finishes. Did you notice them?
Character Information
Birthplace: Planet OEDO
Hobbies: Playing with children in a Japanese rowhouse (Taro) Doing housework (Okon).
Likes: Sweet dumplings. Shaved ice. Okon's shop is the best! (Taro) Ta,...... ro-cha...n. (Okon)
Dislikes: Onions.
They're on a lovey-dovey highway at full-speed! During their recent date, they appear to be going to the currently trending "KARAOKE box" in Planet OEDO.

If I have time, I wanted to add a bit more changes to this couple. They're a straightforward lovey-dovey couple, as usual.
But, based on the karaoke melody, I wonder if it's even better to have an old man and a young female office worker?
