It's been ten years since I started singing.
Sometimes I listen to music like a researcher and sometimes like a critic.
But what I'm thinking about cherishing is the time to live in music without having to think about anything.
Switch from music to protagonist to self to protagonist.
The magical minutes that make the everyday look dramatic and make it complete.
It started in junior high school when I was listening to tapes while I was throbbing with the Walkman, and I want to continue doing that with music.

The four albums I will list this time are images of a morning, noon, evening, and midnight scene.

  • Product name

    LARK / Linda Lewis

    From the first song "Spring song" when I woke up in the morning and was still in a blur.
    I want the brain to think that the day that begins is a refreshing day.
    A fresh, free and tomboyish singing voice and the warm sounds of the 70's. It's full of energy like a little bird.
    The mellowness of the jakkan should be good for those with low blood pressure!

    Life's Too Good / The Sugarcubes

    When traveling to work, I want to hear what makes me ready for battle.
    Björk's song riding on the band sound is hysterical, scary, creepy, cute, etc. Anyway, like a beast, it is the ultimate release.
    Men's vocals with a lot of sense of feelings are also sick and nice.
    The powerful and disturbing sounds make me feel like I'm in the battlefield.

    Greatest Hits / Bill Withers

    I want to listen at dusk in a slightly tired city.
    Every city looks like a wonderful city with a little pity.
    And I feel like a smart and cool uncle.
    I like the best album with a complete set of masterpieces that need no explanation.

    Solo Piano / Gonzales

    Image of "death".
    As the title suggests, it is a solo solo album by the piano, and all the songs are beautiful, but depending on the situation you listen to, you are quietly dominated by a mysterious silence, such as apathy-like emotionlessness.
    Music itself isn't just quiet, but it's a scene in your heart.
    Calm like a lake. Somehow, when I die, I wonder if it looks like this.
    An album you want to listen to alone.
