郊外の闇を抜けて 料金所(ゲート)を過ぎれば
都会の灯(あかり)が フロントガラスに散らばる
合流のウィンカー 加速する鼓動
一瞬 ラジオが途切れて 砂嵐が鳴った
ノイズを切り裂き 戻ってきたメロディ
いつかの冬も この道を走ったわ
でもあの日の私は ただの助手席(インテリア)
流れる景色を 数えていただけ
Radio Days 今も耳元で鳴り響く
これは追憶じゃない 私を急かすビート
窓を少しだけ 滑り落ちさせて
選んだ孤独の寒さを 誇りに思う
スーパーホワイト 磨き抜かれたソアラ
ポロの香りと デジタルパネルの琥珀
あなたはいつでも 飾り立てた夜を
私に預けて 満足していた
「企画が通ったの」 打ち明けた声に
あなたは微笑み 私の髪を撫でた
「ムリしなくていいさ」 その優しさが
私を閉じ込める 壁だと気づいたの
Radio Days ダイアルは未来(あした)を捕まえた
あなたの知らない 私を刻みながら
バックミラーから 消えてゆく思い出
ただ、きらめく都会(まち)へと 溶けだすだけ
「ごめんね、自分で ハンドルを握りたいの」
言い残した言葉が 冬の風に消える
戻らないことは もう決めているから
右足に込めた 確かなリアリティ
Radio Days 今夜もダイアルは回る
あなたの知らない 新しい歌を探して
バックミラーには にじむ街灯(あかり)
ただ、新しい夜へ 加速してゆく
新しい夜へ

Velocity of Goodbye
Akemi
Speed of Goodbye is a mid tempo city pop track that portrays a woman choosing to take the wheel of her own future instead of remaining in someone elses passenger seat.
A midnight highway, city lights scattered across the windshield, a melody returning through radio static, and cold winter air drifting through a half opened window create a scene where solitude becomes motion.
Performed by the fictional AI singer Akemi, the song captures the emotions of adulthood that recognizes how even kindness can become confinement.
Holding onto the warmth of love, she still chooses to move forward on her own, not in rejection, but in self definition.
Inspired by the late 1970s to early 1980s Japanese new music and urban pop, the track reimagines that era atmosphere of highways, car radios, and night driving through a modern and restrained city pop sound.
As memories blur in the rearview mirror, the dial keeps turning toward a new song and a new night.
It is both a farewell and a quiet acceleration into a life she finally drives for herself.
Produced by nanayon music.
Artist Profile
Akemi
A music project that reimagines the melancholic mood and nighttime glow of late 1970s to early 1980s Japanese City Pop and New Music through AI-assisted production and human direction. Akemi is a fictional singer with a backstory of being from Yamato City, Kanagawa, Japan. She sings of urban solitude, grown-up love, and bittersweet afterglow in a noir-tinged city pop sound. Lyrics, composition, vocals, and visuals are created using generative tools and curated through editing. This is an experimental project exploring the human warmth and nostalgia that can emerge from AI.
