Lyrics

Japanese

踊ろよ　真夜中のフロアで
壊れてしまうくらいに　抱き合って

どうすりゃもっと深く　もっとわかりあえるだろう
隠さないで　あどけない艶やかな唇から
情熱の花が　咲き誇れば　ほら

Style of your love

恋人よ　薔薇色に染まれ
溢れるその素顔にキスしたい
たった一つだけの　言葉だけじゃ
むなしさを　癒せない

恋人よ　薔薇色に染まれ
溢れるその素顔にキスしたい
決してわがままでも　理屈でもなくて
君だけを放さない

Song Production Information

In Western music, digi rock's image contains an extreme fusion of high-speed breakbeats and rock, but digi rock in Japan seemingly refers to groovy pop rock songs with lots of programming.
This song has a simple and clear melody, but perhaps its brass rhythms are difficult until you get used to them.

Character Information

A musician who sings and says things like "I'm a natural idol. Or rather, a fairy?". He's a popular act with a tight schedule, and always walks while carrying a huge clock.

★ Birthplace: Japan ☆ Hobbies: Cosplay? Collecting costumes and designs. His closet is like a department store!
● Likes: Nyami♥= ○ Dislikes: Sewing.... costumes?
