Dear PG Music:

Here is my second submission for Xtra Styles PAK 5 Song Contest.
The category is Country.
This song was written about 20 years ago,
Recently I happened to find the individual vocal track of this song when searching the music folders of my old computers.
So, I remade it with Xtra Styles PAK 5 for the submission this time.
It is a story of junior high school girls.

Title: コンサートの帰り道 (Translation: On the way home from the concert)

Summary of lyrics:

The last song was over but our cheeks are still hot
We feel somewhat lonely and sometimes we are quiet
How do you think where we will be after ten years, my friends?
I wonder if we all are becoming pretty after ten years

Soon tomorrow comes again and we say "Good morning"
The chime of the start-up rings as usual time
Someone rewrites the date of the corner of the blackboard
I like one of my classmates but maybe we will not become more than friends

The stars of the night sky we look up will not change forever
I wish we can smile with glitter forever

We walk praying on the way home below the starry night
This road continues to each heart of us
I will not forget the warmth of the hands we connect
I wish we all can go forward with our current feelings kept

Many thanks, Eddie,

I much appreciate your kind comments.
I listened to various demo songs of Xtra 5 Styles, and I happened to find this style.
I am happy to hear you like the manga-esque image.

Best regards.

Shigeki -

There is clearly no language barrier when it comes to music. Absolutely beautiful and spot-on production with this song. I love the pan plute and the vocals are crystal clear and powerful.
