Lyric

"Neo Tokyo Blues" and "Love Is Big Band Backbeat!" are two sophisticated Tokyo love songs that blend the mood and glamour of Showa-era music with a modern urban sensibility and Ichiki's unique perspective on romance.

Set against the nightlife of Ginza, the songs unfold through neon lights, ice in a glass, cigarette smoke, spotlights, saxophones, and trumpets. Within this slightly grown-up world, they portray the tension of romance, emotional hesitation, and the delicate distance between two people who almost reach each other, but never quite do.

"Neo Tokyo Blues" captures a love that refuses to end, even while pretending to be forgotten. It expresses the loneliness hidden behind emotional pride and the quiet ache that lingers at the end of the night.

"Love Is Big Band Backbeat!" takes a more glamorous and playful approach. Built around the idea that "love always begins on the backbeat," the song turns flirtation, timing, lingering glances, and romantic tension into a full-scale show.

One song is about the love that remains when the night is ending.

The other is about the love that makes the night begin.

Together, they combine the emotional richness of Showa-era romance with the stylish energy of modern Tokyo, revealing a more mature side of Ichiki beyond her usual sweetness.
