Song Production Information
AKIRA YAMAOKA
It's the sister song of "Love Will...".
So, there's still one song to complete "my Ibiza trilogy" (laughs).
Video Production Information
VJ GYO
AKIRA YAMAOKA's understanding and sublimination of contemporary trance is spectacular.
Additionally, his solid originality is established and really shines, while not hidden at all despite being a popular genre. Amazing!
The backing chorus throughout the song is particularly impressive and leaves a deep impression in your heart.
The vocalist's "in my eyes" overlap in the latter half of the song, as if the phrases reverberate "like they were saying something", so the voices and instrumental sounds are indistinguishable!!
