LiLu's first mini album "RURI NO TSUKI" (Lapis Lazuli Moon).
In addition to "SORANO YAKUSOKU" , written and composed by LiLu and released as a single, the album includes a piano accompaniment version of "SORANO YAKUSOKU" and various instrumental tracks. In addition, the album includes seven cover songs, including "ANPANMAN NO MARCH [Ballad Ver.]," a ballad with lyrics that overlap with LiLu's own experiences, "INOCHINO UTA," and "WARABIGAMI."
The album title is "RURINO TSUKI." "RURI" sounds similar to her artist name "LiLu." When there are two full moons in a month, the second full moon is called a "blue moon," and is said to make "wishes come true" and "become happy."
"RURI" is one of the seven treasures of Buddhism, and refers to lapis lazuli, which is considered a sacred stone. It is LiLu's birthstone, born in September. The stone meanings of lapis lazuli are "good luck" and "health." Along with the blue moon, the album title also contains LiLu's wish for the happiness and health of the listeners.
**From LiLu**
From the beginning of the production of the single "SORANO YAKUSOKU", I created two different tunes and jackets. The full version and piano version, and the jackets are a red moon and a blue moon. I positioned the full version as the "red moon" of "hope" and the piano version as the "blue moon" of "healing", and I wanted to deliver both to everyone.
I am very happy to be able to make this a mini album with my favorite cover songs.
The "unfading scars" from "SORANO YAKUSOKU" and the "heart scars" from "ANPANMAN NO MARCH" are sung not only to the scars from surgery, but to all those who have emotional wounds.
I hope many people will listen to it.
With love and gratitude from my heart.
-LiLu-
