Lyrics

Japanese

一歩踏み出したら  もう戻れない気がして
大切なモノ  幾つ失うのかと  考えたりして

一体  何度  引き返した？
一体  何度  見ないフリした？
そんな選択  繰り返す度
今を愛せなくなっていた

アノヒトの頭上に光る  星に誓った
誰にだって  始まりの  瞬間がある

そう今は  この地球に生きて  ココに居るよ
忘れられなくて  叫ぶくらいなら
眠る力を  強く信じたい

いつか自分を誇れる事が出来たら
その時には  溢れる想いを
誰より  君だけに  きっと伝えたい ・・・・

Romaji

ippo fumidashitara mou modorenai kigashite
taisetsu na mono ikutsu ushinau no kato kangaetari shite

ittai nandou hikikaeshita?
ittai nandou minai furishita?
sonna sentaku kurikaesu tabi
ima wo aisena kunatteita

ano hito no sora ni hikaru hoshi ni chikatta
dare ni datte hajimari no shunkan ga aru

sou ima wa kono hoshi ni ikite koko ni iruyo
wasurerare nakute sakebuku rainara
nemuru chikara wo tsuyoku shinjitai

itsuka jibun wo hokoreru koto ga dekitara
sono toki ni wa afureru omoi wo
dare yori kimidake ni kitto tsutaetai...

Song Production Information

NAOKI

"STARS☆☆☆" is TЁЯRA's debut song, and I think it's filled with a rough and unknown power.
One of the VISIONs I want to depict in this sound is that it's "uncategorizable". For example, this REMIX is a track by HΛL, who arranges, produces, and creates songs for numerous avex artists such as Ayumi Hamasaki, which expresses our intention to be "borderless" in the J-POP scene. Even if a song was written for a game... it's still a J-POP song, the only difference being where it was released... I recorded this song thinking about this.
TЁЯRA's concept since their formation is "to keep it pop"... "STARS☆☆☆（Re-tuned by HΛL）" is a meaningful track which is TЁЯRA's return to the origin and the start of their second stage.

jun

As the title "STARS☆☆☆（Re-tuned by HΛL） - DDR EDITION -" suggests, this song is a customized DDR version of "STARS☆☆☆（Re-tuned by HΛL）".
Although the beatmaniaIIDX series also includes the "IIDX EDITION", this fast-paced, flowing sound is danceable & pressable in both DDR and IIDX, so by all means, everyone please try to play both versions!
