1989 must be a shocking year for Osamu Kubota, who speaks 8 languages.
I feel that such thoughts are expressed in the song through various scenes directed like a story.
On another note, this time I was able to privately listen to Osamu play the piano from a close distance in a long while.
The feeling of the brilliant melody and chords came from his fingertips, which was so beautiful that even a man with my demeanor could be charmed by it.

A new horizon has been opened by Osamu Kubota. Among the several genres recorded for IIDX, ROCK OPERA distinctively stood out and made the most dramatic impression.
"1989" is the second song after "sanctus", which was stated to be the most controversial among those recorded for 4th style.
1989 was a shocking year. The reason for this is a global event forever remembered in history textbooks as "the fall of the Berlin War".
Once again, if you reflect on the history of this event and forget some aspects, playing this song will allow you to form your own interpretation. I think it's possible to create music which aligns with the composer's thoughts.
