A biting blues-rock anthem that paints a cynical yet soulful portrait of modern life in the "gray city." It speaks to the paralyzing fear of taking a stand ("afraid of black and white") and the safety found in soulless conformity ("if you stay in the middle, you won't get shot"). The song laments the "middle-colored souls" floating like jellyfish in lukewarm water, neither hot nor cold, alive nor dead. Yet, beneath the apathy lies a desperate, fiery demand: "Regain your color, even if it's the color of blood." A powerful wake-up call for those fading into the background scenery.

Seamlessly blending the deep sorrow of the blues with the rustic intimacy of folk music he sings about the light shadow and everyday landscapes of the human experience. His vocals carry the profound resonance of a life fully lived. Shifting effortlessly from powerful gravelly declarations to gentle conversational whispers his style quietly yet deeply stirs the emotions of his listeners. Every chord and raspy note feels like a page torn from a personal diary. Experience a musical world woven by acoustic guitar picking and a voice that radiates genuine human warmth. The music of Ikuyoshi Fujiwara is the perfect companion for a quiet night a moment of reflection or a glass of your favorite drink. It is an authentic soundtrack for the soul.
