Lyrics

When explanations make no sense
When every answer's wrong
You're fighting with lost confidence
All expectations come

The time has come to make or break
Move on don't hesitate
Breakout

Don't stop to ask
Now you've found a break to make at last
You've got to find a way
Say what you want to say
Breakout

Don't stop to ask
Now you've found a break to make at last
You've got to find a way
Say what you want to say
Breakout

Some people stop at nothing

Don't stop to ask
Now you've found a break to make at last
You've got to find a way
Say what you want to say
Breakout

Don't stop to ask
Now you've found a break to make at last
You've got to find a way
Say what you want to say
Breakout

Song Production Information

TOMOSUKE

Since there was a Western music remix competition, TOMOSUKE volunteered to go first and said "I'll do it, me, TOMO-kun, Western music and TOMO-kun!".
As someone who loves Western music, there were too many songs I really wanted to remix, so it was difficult to narrow them down, but after having trouble here and there, I eventually narrowed them down in my mind to Tristeza (Goodbye Sadness), You've Got To Have Freedom, and this song, but I chose this song due to its popularity level.

The original song by Swing Out Sister was a big hit number in 1986. It isn't a crossover from Gitadora.
Perhaps many people know this song since it was often played throughout the city during the '80s revival boom some time ago.
As someone from the ACID JAZZ generation, this is a deeply memorable song, and is one of the best songs which still remains in my heart.
I also performed it in a band during my university days. I remember having trouble making it groovy.
The original mid-tempo song had an exciting intro phrase, and very impressive funky brass and drums, but since it's Orange Lounge, I tried to retain the original's delicious parts, while arranging it with an Orange Lounge style.
TOMOSUKE wants to make a second Western music remix as soon as possible.

Video Production Information

None.
