The Image of Rain
Minori Yoshikawa, TOMC
窓ガラスから雫が落ちて細く伝っていく
この狭い東京のワンルームの中も青く染まっていく
あいにくの空模様だけど
ちょっと散歩でも行かないか
傘の中で内緒ばなしを
二人だけしか知らない言葉で
揺らぐパドル飛び越える
それが僕の雨のイメージ
コインランドリーまでの退屈な道のりさえ
しっとりとした街はいつもより少し優しい
特に用事もないんだけど
ちょっと遠回りしていかないか
傘の中でキスをしよう
大丈夫さ誰も気づきやしない
濡れた肩を抱き寄せる
それが君と僕の
傘の中で内緒ばなしを
二人だけの秘密の約束を
はにかむ君とララバイ
それが僕の… 僕の雨のイメージ

The album is an intersection of City Pop, Ambient and Alternative R&B, in conceptual two parts, "Dream" and "Real".
It also utilizes cutting-edge studio work such as ASMR and 3D stereophonic sound, making it a departure from recent City Pop revivals.
